Yay for tumour-less-ness **picu**

Yesterday was a good day. Dusted, vacuumed, dusted the ceiling fans which involved getting the ladders out, cleaned cat box, cleaned little bathroom, did a metric butt-load of laundry, the last of the doors went back on the kitchen. Yay!

We were pooped last night so we cooked at home roasted butternut squash, steamed yellow squash, pork loin and caramelised onion and mushroom sauce so today we are headed out for breakfast once **mr ems** is done getting cleaned up.

Today will involve relining all the draws and cabinets and putting everything back in the kitchen.

Tonights supper is lobster tail, scallops and shrimp (yay for sales and data mining store loyalty cards!). I am trying to make up for being a bitch recently.

He is out of the shower so I need to go get dressed as I am writing this in my underwears!

:eek: **mmmmmmm** …posting in your underwears? I’m shocked. Shocked, I tells ya.

😃

Yay for surprise parties, **doggio**!

I got an e-mail too, **FCM**. It’s a legitimate deal site, but I’m not sure if **MBG** sent it to us on purpose. I’m going to send him e-mail later to ask, but need to get out of here right now.

Sorry about too much work, **Taters**.

Got brother to the airport successfully, went back to bed for a couple of hours and have been to church. Am now heading out to the art museum for a bit and will then come back and do further cleaning, filing and shredding. Might also get things for taxes together.

Just started a pair of hobo gloves for me, this time in red and gray. I’m getting better at gloves but still need to figure out how to make the part at the base of the fingers smoother. I’ll be researching that this afternoon, I think.

Off to the museum I go…

Hugs all.

We made it to church!

It turned out to be an ordination thing with the Archbishop and twice as long as usual!

We had to leave after an hour because Gnat had a blood sugar low and tantrum!  
Oh, well. We got there.

I’m maybe going to try simple homemade pasta and meatballs for dinner. I will make the pasta and sauce but the meatballs are from Costco.

Third load in the washer, second in the dryer, first folded and put away. First vest cut out - lengthening the pattern was a pain, but it’s done, so the second vest should be easier to build. Not gonna sew today, tho. I’ll knit.

Daughter has gone to hang with a friend and \*\*FCD \*\*is watching some bloody movie on Netflix - literally bloody - some kind of sword-wielding war flick. ick. Cozmo is consigned to the basement and the upstairs critters are all crashed out. Except for the moans and war whoops on the TV, it’s quiet in there.

I need chocolate. Time to forage in the pantry, methinks.

Yup: been there, done that. I even have a spare t-shirt. {{ **LiLi** }}

Howdy Y’all! Been a restful day at da cave. Got deheathenated, had lunch, had a nappy poo and washed a load of towels that are now in the dryer. I may have myself a nice soak in the tub whilst sippin’ upon a glass of wine. Or not. I have not decided yet.

So goeth Sunday in swampland.

We watched Gorky Park - one of my favorite movies. Now it’s bed time…

Made an awesome dinner - baked chicken with rosemary, cornbread dressing, chicken gravy and steamed asparagus.

I’m tahred, but I guess I’m ready to get back to work tomorrow. Dad’s feeling a little better, thank goodness. I worry when he’s sick. I’m glad this cold stuff was short lived for both of us, and so far Mr Rebo seems to be keeping clear of it.

See y’all on the flip side… 😉

Wow, I’m exhausted. Must be the combination of not wild party last night and getting up really early to go to the airport.

In any case, I’m crawling into bed now and hoping not to wake up in the middle of the night…

Hugs all and Happy Valentine’s Day in advance.
