CHECK-IN: Sunny SATURDAY 3/9/2019 - All are WELCOME!

I'm in. Taking lunch to my accountant later on.  
Enjoy your workshop MJ.
Enjoy the family time Linda.
Charlie is walked, ferals are fed. I'm sore from yesterday so likely a DOR from the gym.

Good morning.I'm in.

linda72 Enjoy the dinner.I wish they would leave the time one way or the other but I doubt the farmers in TX would like doing away with DST.

Susi Enjoy your day.

fullmahina Enjoy the first dog bath.You may get wetter than the dog.LOL.

We are going to sign our tax refund papers this morning so they can send them in and then going to buy groceries.I don't like going to the HEB Plus over there on Saturday's but we need enough to get through the weekend.

Have a good day all.

Good morning. I’m (kinda) in.

In the November election California had a measure on the ballot to permit the legislature to select year-round standard time or daylight saving time. It was very ambiguous, with no statement which way they would go. I kind of figured this was a way of getting more votes to ensure passage. And it did pass. On the morning news there was a report of a state assembly person who is declaring that the state legislator will pass a bill to make DST permanent. I figured this was coming. So now instead of being tired, cranky, and disoriented 8 months a year I’ll be that way all year round. Bummer.

I’ve been trying to adjust to a medication increase and have been sleeping poorly. Last night was the worst. I may need to go back to bed.

That’s it.

KOKO

Good Morning Everything is in bloom here too. My cough is lingering now on its second month. Generally I cough more at night. My husband bought me a Phillips SAD clock so I wake up to the sun rising and the sound of birds and ocean waves. Unfortunately I usually wake up earlier to the cat meowing near my face. He stand on the floor next to my head and has a loud irritable voice. He wants to be lifted to the sink for slightly running water and then fed special treats with breakfast.

Farmers have a difficult time with the changing times for DST.
Susi, does the accountant give you a better return if you bring lunch

Had a beyond fabulous dinner last night and an almost 2 lb gain today. Can there be that much salt in restaurant food. Actually I should not have had dessert if I really cared. I was impeccable in my eating all day and even walked the dog to exchange the pint at the ice cream shop to avoid ordering a scoop. It was a good almost 2 mile walk.Today is our granddaughter's birthday party, a garden party with Mexican food. I am going to grab a bottle of water first thing and avoid the food. Dinner is at home, grilled swordfish, butternut squash, haricots verts and salad. We leave in the morning for four nights in Las Vegas with a group DH represents. I am tagging along to shop and play slots.

Audrey, you reminded me that the 2nd cold I caught, like yours, hung on for the better part of two months. Not constant, worse at night, and just annoying. Thankfully it seems to finally be gone.

And your furry alarm clock experience is the same one I get each morning. Although Missy doesn’t need to sit next to my head—her voice is so load that it would wake the dead. She bellows and paces, I yell “shut up,” she keeps it up, and eventually she wins…I get up, lift her to the bathroom sink, turn on the water, and she drinks. After she is sated, she goes back to bed while I, of course, am too awake to do the same.

I’ve threatened to get separate bedrooms—hers being upstairs nowhere near me!
