early saturday mornings

[lizbud]

Hey, no grass cutting here. My spring flowers are peeking out much
to soon.

I do love Saturdays. I always thought of it as the best day of the week
from my old school days & through days of work 9-5. This is a great idea
for a feel good thread.

...and since it's raining now, no more yard work for 2006 either . happy new year all!

... and since it's raining now,

no more yard work for 2006 either

Raining? ... Some would call it a Monsoon!
The Ranch looks like it's surrounded by a Rice Paddy!

"Odd Job" would sink if he put a tire on the "lawn".
Bowser has to take a Deep Breath before he jumps off the bottom step to take an outie.

And we'll prolly have *snow* on the 4th of July!

HAPPIE NEW YEAR!

This is a nice thread you've started Joyce!
Well... I was blessed to have Buddy let me sleep till 9:30 (after his 7:30am potty call )
I've been cleaning and slowly putting Christmas decorations away.
My hubby will be home tonight at 7:00 and will leave to go back to work Tuesday morning at 3am.
I try to make sure the house is spotless top to bottom for his 1 day home a week.
I should be out in the yard I have poo to pick up, leaves, and yeah... I could mow the lawn... but it would be far to weird to do that on Dec 31st!
And yes ... I think we'll have snow on the 4th of July also!
Tonight we get to ring in the new year with his family, it will be fun.
I wish you all the best life can bring you in 2007!

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.

[DrKym]

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!

Well, I didn't even get out of bed til 11am . That is super late for me. I must have been really tired. I just finished eating some oatmeal while surfing pt and watching the snow flurries fly around. Weather calls for 1-2 inches but I kind of doubt that. Now I'm going to get off of here and chat with Alden for a bit and then start cleaning out my closet and drawers. I have so many clothes that I no longer wear or that no longer fit me so I need to get those boxed up and out of here. Its a good day to stay inside and do that kind of thing. I plan on finding a good movie to watch later on this evening. I love having the weekends off!

Have a great day everyone!!

10:00 am on a Saturday morning here. I'm drinking coffee and goofing around on the computer, still in my robe. The kids are all still asleep, and hubby is doing some dumb thing for work. Aaaaahhhhhh, peaceful house, all alone! I LOVE that!

Of course I have 28,347 things to do today, and so far I haven't even managed to accomplish taking a shower! *sigh*

[PJ's Mom]

I got to sleep til 9 before getting up and taking the dogs out. Now I'm eating grapes and browsing PT looking for pics I may have missed. Now I have to actually get off my butt and do some cleaning around here. I also have to go to work at 3.

[joycenalex]

the cats got crunchies, alex and peanut get outies and breakfast, then i get my first cup of coffee. i've worked so much and so hard for these too rare moments, the yard looks fine, the dogs are checking the bunny holes under the shed, 2 loads of laundry are done and put away, the a/c guy is coming for the maintaince check in an hour, the farmers market will have something wonderful for dinner. in a little bit i'll be back outside with a book and coffee. life is good.
what are your summer saturday plans?

[pitc9]

Wow Joyce! Can I come over!

I'm here at work... ugh... only till 12:30, then I'll stop on my way home and pick up lunch.
My hubby plans on having our house on the market next month so once I get home I'll have to paint the spare bedroom, then once pain dries I'll set the bed up and make it look like a bedroom. (we used to have a bed in there, but then it became the junk room and we took the bed down to make room for more junk!)
After that I'm sure my hubby will have a list of other things for me to do.
Once I'm done with his list I'll have to find time to make dinner and clean the house, I also need to get out in the yard and weed my flower beds too!
Oh what fun...
I used to like Saturday's, when I was able to relax and enjoy the day.

[joycenalex]

yes, i still get up early, peanut wants an outie, both she and the magic cat are very clear that they want their crunchies. i still turn the TV on to watch marshall do weather and mindy read the news, somehow my first cuppa of coffee evaporates too quickly. summer saturdays are so full of promise and plans, laundry, dog walk, farmers market, groceries, yard work. i don't cut the grass anylonger, but i supervise ben a great kid by the way. tonight, cookout with friends, tomorrow am, the patio, coffee, the paper bacon and eggs and sunshine. life is good, and i'm a lucky woman. enjoy your weekend too.
