Virginia Posted November 27, 2023 Author Share Posted November 27, 2023 Hey y'all! It's been a busy couple of weeks. I reactivated my real estate license and have been taking classes to update my skills in that AND for my mobile notary business (specializing in closings). My brain has been cursing me out. 🤣 This past week I've spent traveling to visit family who live on the West Coast but were near enough for me to drive out (they had a family reunion at Myrtle Beach, SC) for an impromptu visit. We also had a funeral to attend and then we had church (same location as the funeral but one was on Tuesday and the other yesterday). I feel tired but not in a bad way. I sometimes have periods of inactivity, and then BOOM! I'm all over the place! I'm thinking it's all go from now until the New Year. What have you been up to?

Madeleine Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Same for me, quiet for a while and then lots all at once, the last few days have been a bit full on - met up with friends last Sunday, then Monday I also sadly had a funeral, then a break for a few days and then Saturday had a quiz evening, yesterday my choir sang at a local Christmas fare which was great fun, quiet again for a few days then off with friends on Thursday to a gallery, first Christmas lunch of the season on Saturday and another choir gig on Sunday, this time at the local shopping mall, though I don't think the acoustics will be that good, as those places tend to be a bit like echo chambers. Enjoy whatever you're doing! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing planned as we've been out and about yesterday. I think I'll go thru my planner (app and physical) and update it. I also need to do my online Notary continuing education class and go thru my real estate notes as I plan to reactivate my license in the new year. So basically, whatever needs to be done admin wise, that's probably what I'll be doing. Hey Virginia. I see you described as a male in your profile. I thought y'all was a girl you know..?..puzzled 🤔 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madeleine Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 Looks like being a nice day here for once, it's finally stopped raining for a couple of days so will probably do a bit more of a garden tidy up. Hope you're all enjoying your weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hayley Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 I am finally at the end of a weekend that has been packed with work, so I'm about to put my pyjamas on and make a hot chocolate . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been here for over ten years and never knew that's what it was. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madeleine Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 After a couple of nice days, spring is over for now so it's back indoors, to my jigsaw. I did at least manage to give the grass in the back garden it's first cut the other day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did at least manage to give the grass in the back garden it's first cut the other day. It’s still nice and spring-like here! I’ve haven’t had as much time for the garden as I’d like (exam time is approaching, so I’ve got loads of work right now) but I’m gradually trying to take all the dead heads off my hydrangeas. It’s satisfying but really time consuming! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madeleine Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 As we're having a few warm sunny days I've been on a seed planting frenzy, have planted 3 types of sunflower, including Sun King, which is a huge yellow pom pom like flower I saw today in the garden centre when I went to get some compost, 2 types of zinnia, some cosmos, snapdragon and some cornflowers. Fingers crossed they don't get eaten! First lot of sunflowers planted last week are already seeding well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lunababymoonchild Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 Our weather has grown warm too. All of us have the cold. It's a bad one too. My father has taken to his bed, my brother was sent home from work and can't go in tomorrow and I have a cough that is impressing me! Neither of us can be bothered doing anything as we are all exhausted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madeleine Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 We've had that here, and the cough that lingers has been called the 100 day cough. Have avoided it so far but had absolutely streaming hay fever the other day, which is quite early, normally it's June so I'm hoping June won't be even worse. Hope everyone feels better soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lunababymoonchild Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 Thank you Madeleine and Poppy. I feel fortunate that I’m getting some sleep and can actually breathe properly, my brother can’t (sleep or breathe). We are leaving our father in bed because he looks very frail out of it - he has constant access to bottled water for hydration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madeleine Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 thanks both, just feeling a bit achey at the moment but I know from last time that worse may be yet to come! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madeleine Posted July 17 Share Posted July 17 Not too bad thank you, trying to take things fairly easy, just gearing myself up to watering my plants. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madeleine Posted July 17 Share Posted July 17 Managed the plants OK, phew, don't have as many tubs as last year. Tomatoes are starting to form now which is good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
