early saturday mornings

[joycenalex]

i've had my first cup of coffee, dogs fed, cats fed, mojo on my lap as i type.
saturday is full of promise. yes i have the normal list of chores, and some extra as it's 2 days till christmas, but oh, how sweet to know the day is my own, a walk with the dogs later, time to make a good meal, share laughter with my family, maybe a chance to hear live music or see a movie tonight. i will get the see the sunlight in my kitchen as i'm writing checks later(and see all the dust bunnies on the floor too ). life is good on saturdays. enjoy yours too

I have to work! We have many catering orders going out today for tomorrow.
Good thing about Saturday, instead of 5:30am I go in at 8am.

The same scene is repeated here too. Coffee by my side, dogs and cats fed and Ripley on my lap as I type.

I love Saturdays too. A little later on Christiansmommy will be stopping by with her family to exchange gifts and leave Harlee with us for a few days. She is traveling to her in-laws to meet up with her hubby's brother who is coming in from Guam and hubby's sister who is coming in from Boston.

Let's toast with our coffee mugs for a happy, peaceful and restful weekend. After the long work week we deserve it.

Awwwww... what a sweet thread!

I wish my Saturday is as full of promise as yours, but I doubt it since I have to work all day!

since july, i've worked most saturdays. just being in my kitchen and drinking coffee with the critters is so wonderful, i had to share. i feel the pain of the up early outta-the-door-travel-mug-in-hand crowd.

I woke up this Saturday morning to find my faithful bed partner Samantha in bed with me and Chester and Amy on the floor by my bed watching me. Now they are gathered around my computer chair. It is great to be alive isn't it?

Enjoy your day everyone ... hopefully it is not too hectic for you all.. especially those that have to work. It is currently 1am on Sunday morning here.. so Saturday has been and gone, we had dog training in the morning then i went and finished off my Christmas shopping .

Yes, Saturday mornings really are the best.

This week, due to the snow storm, I've had the last 3 days off. And at my jobs I have the next 2 weeks off....so today is an especially good Saturday. I've already cleaned and prepared- now all I need to do pick up my mom from the airport and have fun!

It's funny how we all have our Saturday routines- mine is about the same. Get up, let the dogs out, let them in, feed them & the cats, then go online with some tea and relax for a while.

made an extra good pot of coffee this morning, which i shared with the paper guy, he looked so cold. the snow is gently falling (again), the dog prints are covered, so the yard looks pretty. first outside chore is driveway duty, we're supposed to get 3 inches . i've got a trip to the bank, post office, grocery store then a haircut for today. tonights' dinner is mexican style enchilladas with rice and guacamole, watch a movie or maybe finish taxes (wail, weep, moan). what are your plans?

I like this thread

The snow outside is so pretty with huge flakes falling slowly - that really perfect kind of snow. We are staying IN for sure. sirrahned has made a nice fire in the buckstove and finished shoveling the driveway. All five cats are sleeping on the bed.

Our grandkids are coming over for lunch soon and I am fixing some yummy italian sausage and peppers - with penne. YUM. I got the recipe from Foodnetwork (Giada) and made it a few weeks ago - so good it will be a regular I am sure.

Tonight will be movie and popcorn - here at home

Mine is pretty much the same everyday. Wake up around 9:30-10ish, brush teeth, let dogs out, make coffee, turn on the computer, clean up a little bit (today vaccumed as well), then I get my coffee and sit here while the dogs run around like maniacs. Then at 11 the dogs eat, and what happens the rest of the day is unknown. Although with the weather it's all definitely inside.

Everyone's day sounds relaxing. I'm not sure what we will do yet- we are definitely going to the library, and we will probably go grocery shopping, maybe go to the park since it's really sunny here today. I'm hoping to get those late w2's in the mail today so I can finish our taxes...they are almost done! Not to much of anything, just a nice, relaxing day.

What a wonderful thread!!
I was able to stay in bed, Jas is still spoiling me a little, watched the flakes fall, cuddled with my son and the kittens, watched really bad cartoons for a bit. Came out thinking I would do the cages and the bird room, but Jas had them all done already, so after a stint here on PT will be sitting and finishing up the blankie for my newest Grandaughter (was able to get several things made while I was in hospital) and send it off on Monday morning!

i just finished my first mug of coffee. outside the computer room window, the neighbors' sugar maple is beautiful . the rising sun is turning the colors flame orange against the cloudless blue sky, amazing the colors a tree can seem. a long walk with the dog today is gonna happen late this afternoon. magic cat, the shiest cat on the planet has come over to demand his ear rubs, his mother, mojo is ms social, pet me know and admire my beautiful soft coat has climbed up next to him on my lap so i'm holding 22# of wiggle and arm stretch for the keyyboard. life is good. enjoy your saturday

It is so quiet and peaceful, we are having our first rain of the season and I have the window open and I am enjoying the sound of the light rain with my morning coffee.
