Upside down, but pool is 74, so nice afternoon to take a dip. That is after a very gray and gloomy morning.
What a beautiful sky:

I have lost my mind. I decided I would organize our spare bedroom. It is sort of a bedroom/office/catch all space. I am now surrounded by stuff. I have decided that we have way too much stuff we don’t need. I can’t get rid of most of it because it belongs to dh.
Best tenants we had believe it or not was a couple of college girls, always paid on time and kept the house in very good shape, had a druggy couple (we did background checks and nothing came up) that actually sold all of our appliances in our house so they could get more supplies for themselves......it’s a very interesting business.....
Belated to cam757 son...…...it was his 14th Birthday yesterday...….
There`s talk of diabetics being held under extra lockdown which will affect a couple of my friends, so hope they don`t feel the need. My mum is under lockdown still as she is over 70, I think that`ll be around 12 weeks they`ve not been allowed out...…she`s been so good though and followed the rules to the letter.
Happy Memorial Day!! Hope everyone has had a nice weekend.
Yesterday was DS's 14th bday. It was a little chilly out so we ended up ordering pizza and having the grandparents and my DB come over. DS wants to build a gaming computer so he got mainly money to buy his parts. He was happy. I made him lemon cake and I found this candy cake on Pinterest that I made. He loved it.
Had my hair done on Thursday and DS and DH were finally able to get their hair cut on Saturday. Masks and temp checks required for all. So nice to feel groomed again.
We did get a sad call from our son's school on Friday. The man who sat at the front desk to sign kids in and out of school passed away from complications of COVID. He would have turned 47 in a couple of weeks. Not sure if he had underlying medical issues. He was a nice guy. Always a pleasure to talk to. Very sad.
Nice day today. Around 70 and sunny this afternoon. Beats the 4 days of rain and wind we had last week. Bring on the heat!
Diet has been on hold. Will pick it up again on Wednesday when I go back to work. Too many temptations to clear out after the bday party.
Sounds like my spare room. A complete catch all.
Wow!! That is crazy. I have a friend who has a beach house on the Outer Banks. She only rented it to friends and friends of friends. A woman rented it for the week but unbeknownst to my friend the rental was for her son and his friends. While they were there they tried to steam crabs in the dishwasher and of course ruined the dishwasher. The mother had to pay for the replacement. One of the many reasons she does not rent it out any longer.
Thank you!!!
My mom's "boyfriend" has severe diabetes. He lives about an hour away from her and they have not seen each other in 2 months. He is being extra cautious because of his diabetes and I don't blame him. He gets a cold at the drop of a hat anyway.
Set another plate or two
Company coming for dinner....
We have some going off here too tonight. Ugh!Ah, at least the neighbor fireworks are starting earlier tonight. So much for a quiet night. Ugh M80’s are the worse.
What a lovely tribute to them both.My mom was a veteran and I display her flag each Memorial Day
I gave my dads flag to my brother and he displays it at his home
Interesting! My youngest was our tap dancer. 15 years! She had two years of ballet before that, because it was "required" at her dance studio, but she wanted to start with tap and couldn't. So 17 years of dance total. Having daughters, I was a dance mom.. but not a crazy one!Did you know that in addition to Memorial Day today is also National Tap Dance Day?
Sounds like DH and me may share a birthday!
I had to log in too. I wonder if they updated the site or something?Received a message to sign in which I did but saw a note invalid password....
I'm a few hours late but I hope you saved me a piece!cheesecake for dessert!
I'm on the fence on buying one... did you use it frequently?Looking at buying a new Sous vide machine. The one we had was mid range and it worked fine, till I broke it...... I really shouldn’t be allowed out at times!!!
Happy birthday to your son! What a nice candy cake!Yesterday was DS's 14th bday. It was a little chilly out so we ended up ordering pizza and having the grandparents and my DB come over. DS wants to build a gaming computer so he got mainly money to buy his parts. He was happy. I made him lemon cake and I found this candy cake on Pinterest that I made. He loved it!
I'm sorry to hear that.The man who sat at the front desk to sign kids in and out of school passed away from complications of COVID
It’s been quite active here this year too, assume due to the fact fireworks are now legal in PAAh, at least the neighbor fireworks are starting earlier tonight. So much for a quiet night. Ugh M80’s are the worse.
Woo-hoo...appears this is a great week for birthdaysHi all...
re: special events in the McKenna household; DH's birthday is coming up this week, as is my youngest dd's graduation. We're looking at trying to do something next weekend for both of them.
Didn't do much today except for cooking dinner. It was a nice day, hope everyone had a nice day also.
SoonAnd Happy Birthday to Keisha's hubby!
He willHope Mr Keisha has a super birthday !
Honestly, this may be my best year for dragging them out hahahaKeisha....I like your style...….keep the celebrations going.....it`s nice they still have their birthdays to look forward to this week!!!!
Good for her, anecdotally I’m hearing many of the elderly have discounted CV-19 as ‘a nothing’ & are disregarding social distancing.My mum is under lockdown still as she is over 70, I think that`ll be around 12 weeks they`ve not been allowed out...…she`s been so good though and followed the rules to the letter.
Sounds like a great day all the way around around. That is a beautiful pool!That’s about all we are doing. We will bring food with us, as Dsis has a grill in the pool area, so older one can grill up burgers I made and some hotdogs. Then I made a fresh fruit salad with the fruit I bought the last 2 days, and made pasta salad too. Bought chips and coleslaw, so that should do it. And cut up some vegetables to snack on as the grilling is bring done. I much rather do lunch than dinner, as yes the work routine continues tomorrow.
Yum, sounds good.That’s what we‘re doing Lynne......the meats are ready to go and I’ve made up pasta salad, potato salad and cous cous.......spicy and fruity at the same time.
It’s a who . If i see one more news account on the tube re her full back tattoo or Brazilian wax I may scream.I only vaguely know what a cardiB is, and I'm not sure if B does.
Oh the other G would never deign to address her concerns directly to me. She was venting to my kids, they couldn’t wait to share it with me and get a good laugh fest out of it.Keisha that must have been a very interesting family get together That’s horrible about hairdresser infecting so many clients. This virus is so scary esp since you can have it but be asymptomatic.
Didn’t receive the 2nd one, makes sense...red-headed stepchild and allWas going through some emails and seems I’ve gotten a couple of updates one is a pass holder email saying your invited to experience the reopening, then another one saying we are invited to be special guests if we can attend and some other information along with it.
And so...it begins. I still can’t believe you are brave/talented enough to cut anything more than the bangs. I’ve gone to pros who can’t pull off a decent blunt cut.My hair has gone a little off today.......roots are starting to show and it’s grown massively in last two weeks. I need to cut it as it’s going to be mid July before salons open. Will make sure I don’t enjoy a glass or two of wine first and then decide to have a go......lol......
That’s frustrating. I’ve taken to setting up things in “Notes” on phone or ipad then copying & pasting where ever.I have been catching up and writing out a future thread that will be a temp stickie.
In between doing that and writing emails to a peep, I started to come here to read a few minutes ago.
Could not get into the disboards then.
Received a message to sign in which I did but saw a note invalid password....
Apparently my pw did not work so had to sign up for the disboards...... first time this has happened to me.
Had to wait to get the link for joining the Disboards.
and I lost all that I had written for the new sticky I’ll have up June 1
Discovered that once I was approved to join the Disboards.
Going to play ketchup to see what I’ve missed today here.
Fancy stuff, rather intimidating to me, same as air fryer lolLooking at buying a new Sous vide machine. The one we had was mid range and it worked fine, till I broke it...... I really shouldn’t be allowed out at times!!!
Aw, way to make his BD special in these trying times! Happy happy to your DS.Yesterday was DS's 14th bday. It was a little chilly out so we ended up ordering pizza and having the grandparents and my DB come over. DS wants to build a gaming computer so he got mainly money to buy his parts. He was happy.
