Morning MJ &all. I hate DST. Always have๐Ÿ˜ก The only thing holding up eliminating changes is that Gov canโ€™t decide if it should be DST all the time or not.๐Ÿ˜
Son is working so hard on my yard and itโ€™s looking great.
Hope you all have a wonderful day. Love to all the great women on here. โ˜ฎ๏ธ

Morning MJ &all. Hope they finish painting before the winds start. Itโ€™s starting out to be a beautiful day.
Pups have been very unsettled with all the activity and strangers around.
Pork green chile stew brewing for lunch. It smells so good.

Morning MJ &all. Love your memes!

Morning MJ &all. Supposed to cool off by the weekend but now itโ€™s a bit too warm for me.
Hubby decided to have the outside of the house painted. They started yesterday and the livestock are not happy. Itโ€™s such a mess outside.
Be careful outside. Always have your phone handy just in case. Good day โ˜ฎ๏ธ

Morning MJ &all. Loving this weather. Looked up and saw all the planets last night. Iโ€™ve always been interested in whatโ€™s out there.
Nothing on tap for today. Would like to go to the Upper Valley Market but hubbyโ€™s back not up to it.
Never stop talking about the Epstein files.
Enjoy the sunโ˜ฎ๏ธ

Morning MJ&all. Listening to music while I work around the house. My dog hates when I dance and attacks my feet๐Ÿ˜†. KC and the Sunshine Band playing. Really gets you moving.
The day is beautiful here. I will not ruin it by watching the ๐ŸŠ๐Ÿคก.
Everyone enjoy your day no matter what you do!
We need peaceโ˜ฎ๏ธ

Morning MJ &all. So the Dept. of stupidity shot down a CBP drone last night. They need to take those things away from them. First party balloons now this. ๐Ÿคฃ
Slept great last night. Got my fan working. YAY.

Everyone take care today. โ˜ฎ๏ธ

Morning MJ &all. Had a rough night last night. Couldnโ€™t get to sleep. I think it was just warm in the room. I need a cool room to sleep. Tried to turn on my fan but it stopped working. Will need a nap.
So many trees have died around here. Hope your tree does well.

Love your meme today too.๐Ÿ˜† My hair is a little longer on top but short in back and sides. You are so right. If we donโ€™t like our haircut it will grow out.

Morning MJ &all. Iโ€™ve been pretty productive this AM. Coffee and a load of laundry while talking to my sister. Love my new haircut. Itโ€™s just what I wanted.
Iโ€™ve got to go vote this morning.
I wish I could grow flowers. Iโ€™ll try again. Have a wonderful day all. โ˜ฎ๏ธ

Morning MJ &all. Off to get a haircut. I canโ€™t stand it anymore.
Brother sent me a vibrating platform. Tried it for 10 min last night. Wondered why I was a little sore today and remembered I used it. I guess it is a little bit of a work out.
Napping is the best!๐Ÿ’ค
Have a good day all. โ˜ฎ๏ธ

Love that bear. My son has a blue bear given to him at birth. โ€œBlue Bearโ€ has traveled around the country, been to college, and now lives in a van in Aspen. His nose has been repaired twice, and his eyes have been replaced. He is well loved. ๐Ÿงธ๐Ÿ’™ Iโ€™m sure Abeโ€™s will be well loved too.

Morning MJ &all. Some house cleaning today. Having cats is like having kids. Toys everywhere.
Need to get over to vote in the primary. Iโ€™m taking my DL, voter card, and my passport. Not really expecting a problem but this IS Texas. You never know.
Stay safe on escort duty. Love to you all. โ˜ฎ๏ธ

When I was working,my weekends were never free. Hubby worked weekends for a lot of years so I had to take kids to activities, grocery shopping, laundry, house cleaning by myself. Now everyday is like a weekend so I can do what I want when I want. I wouldnโ€™t change anything.

Morning MJ &all. Yesterday was beautiful. Going to be mid 80โ€™s next week. A bit warm for Feb.
Iโ€™m contemplating what my goals should be this spring and decided I shouldnโ€™t plan anything. Just take it a day at a time. Learned things can change in a split second at this age.
Have a wonderful day allโ˜ฎ๏ธ

Morning MJ &all. Itโ€™s breezy this AM. The wind chimes are chiming loudly.
I have a kitty race track in the living room. They have the zoomies.
Son #1 coming to help hubby with his computer. Itโ€™s nice having tech savvy sons.
Hope everyone enjoys the day. Iโ€™m trying to live in the now.
Peace & love

Morning MJ &all. I need a nose bucket to catch all the snot ๐Ÿคฃ. Tissue is not working.
Lunch with brother is the only planned activity.
Floor needs mopping but Iโ€™ll wait 1 more day.
Guess they better hide the ketchup at the WH. The ๐ŸŠ๐Ÿคก wonโ€™t be happy. Have a great day all. Stay safe from the winds. โ˜ฎ๏ธ

Morning MJ &all. This wind irritates my nerves and my allergies have gone into high gear ๐Ÿคง.
Saw where Santana and Doobie Brothers are coming! Would love to go but ticket prices are outrageous and hubby would never be able to climb the stairs to reach the seats I might be able to afford. Stay safe โ˜ฎ๏ธ

Morning MJ & all. Happy Wine Day!
It was terrible yesterday. Even the animals are dusty.
Congrats on the weight loss. Old age is helping me keep the weight off. Canโ€™t eat as much.
Itโ€™s wine day. Iโ€™ll have a glass or 2 of red today. Itโ€™s good for the heart. Hold on to your hats today๐Ÿ’จ

Morning MJ &all. Happy tacohorsebeads day!๐Ÿ˜ Spring is right around the corner. Winds the rest of the week. ๐Ÿคง๐Ÿคง๐Ÿคง. No cleaning allowed today. Donโ€™t want to wash away any luck I might have.
Lunch with SIL &BIL went very well yesterday. They didnโ€™t try to save us or talk politics. Good Fortune to all!

and my house is clean but it is what it is. BIL also believes hubby and I are going to hell and wants to โ€œsaveโ€ us. They also think the ๐ŸŠ๐Ÿคก is our savior. So just a quick lunch somewhere and they can be on their way. Love them but itโ€™s best if we donโ€™t spend much time with them.
Sending you all โ˜ฎ๏ธ.
