Small Talk

Hope everyone's having a great day.

The weather finally turned warm here. Very warm. It made for restless sleep last night, but I didn't want to break down and turn on the AC this early.

So far today I've read the Sunday paper and uh, um, nothing else. It's just going to be one of those days.

 

Way to stick to your guns, Maggie. The world of quilting is not calling your name. With your garden, reading and your other hobbies, you won't have time for that this summer anyway. My current quilt is going to have to be put on the back burner for awhile while I do some other projects.

My daughter came over this evening for a visit. I hadn't seen her since last Sunday, so we had some catching up to do. We cooked hamburgers on the grill and I made a salad. Not much clean up, just the way I like it.

It's supposed to stay near 80 degrees all week. We really need rain and may get some tomorrow and Tuesday.

 

Thank you Cheryl for inviting me to the porch!

Hello Maggie! Nice to meet you!! It's a lovely thread indeed.

I feel jealous when I hear temperature is quite high where you live. Today it was only 12 Celcius here which is about 54 Farenheit. Nights are even colder so I am still wearing my winter coat!

Cheryl, I have been vertigo free for 9 days today!! So happy !! I think Lauricidin is doing it's job! Happy days It's so lovely you managed to see your daughter. Hamburgers and salad! Yum! I wish I was there

Maggie I hope your appointment with the hairdresser went ok. You must look stunning now!

A little "joke"( which was sad after all) from my class. ( Maggie I teach 4/5 years old kiddies) I was introducing 3D shapes during our maths lesson so we learnt cube, cuboid, sphere etc when I said "prism" a little boy put up his hand and said " miss miss I know, my father was in one!" First I wasn't sure what he meant but after a while it clicked to me that he had meant a PRISON! Poor child!!

Have a lovely rest of the day ladies! It's getting dark here so I will be going to bed soon !!! It was lovely to see you

 

Marta,

How wonderful that you have gone nine whole days without vertigo. You are throwing everything you can at The Beast, so maybe something is going to work for you. That's the best news!

You must hear all kinds of cute and interesting things from your students. The little boy whose father was in prison probably has a vision in his head now of his father having been in a prism shaped building. It reminds me of when my sister-in-law had to make a trip to Mexico for her job. She was telling of how, in some down time, she was taken on a tour of some of the different areas and was saying how sad it was to see so many people living in little shanties. My nephew, about five at the time, couldn't figure out how people could live in a shanty. Days later he brought it up to his mom and they discussed it. It has been on his mind and the whole time he had been picturing families living on a chandelier.

Maggie,

Cute story about your grandson. Just to hear a four year old ask "gramma, are you terrified" would crack me up. I can't wait until my granddaughter starts talking in more than two word sentences.

It's been a little bit cooler here today with a nice breeze coming through the open windows. The rain has been more like sprinkles, on and off all afternoon, so nothing significant. We need a nice, gentle, soaking rain.

Snow! Yikes is right.

I'm an ISFJ, too!

 

ISFJ (still at work ???)

 

Hello ladies! I hope you have had fab Tuesday!!!
I am so tired today, I cannot feel my legs! And I have to take my daughter for her sports club before 7 pm ( leaving in 15 minutes )
Maggie, the story with your grandson was so funny! Kids can be so sweet! And yes, I am from UK and yourself from Canada if I am correct? 27 degrees Celcius in April? That's a big WOW!!! I love hot days!
Cheryl, I am sure you will have wonderful chats with your granddaughter when she starts speaking in full sentences. There will be many questions to be answered!
All the best for the rest of your day!!!

 

Maggie
Alberta, Canada! It is so beautiful there!!! I have been watching a Canadian serial Heartland. I cannot get over the beautiful land captured in the film! First I am going to Cheryl's country and then to Canada! ( hopefully one day That's my plan )

The 3 of us ISFJ ! I did find it bizarre a bit but also very positive.

You're right Maggie, I have to take it easy. I have been so tired today it's hard to explain. 10 days vertigo free doesn't mean I am healthy again.

It's 9.25 pm so it's past my bed time haha . I usually am fast asleep at this time. Good night and see you tomorrow

Nice to see you posting in the front porch!! Let loose and enjoy all the threads. We always end up having fun here.

It was a FAB day here, too.

 

I live close to where The Walking Dead is filmed. Love that show!

My daughter is asleep, my son is on the computer in his room and my husband is at work for two days. So here I sit bored, not able to work or drive. Tomorrow I crank up the sewing machine. Looking forward to that.

 

Pretty much right on, but I don't see myself as having a "need to be needed." As far as describing a work situation it was very accurate.

I'm glad you posted the link to the Glacier Skywalk for Marta to see. I'm fascinated by it.

Did you take advantage of your nice weather today?

Marta, I hope you got restful sleep last night and didn't feel quite so tired today. You have such a big responsibility with all those little ones. I know you like your teaching job, but when you're dealing with a never ending illness, it can take some of the joy out of anything you do.

Cheryl

 

Moodymom,

Can you book a day when you get in to see them? My cousin did that last year and she had a blast.
You should look into it!
