Blankness

Bit of blankness been going on recently.  And lack of focus.  Everybody else is covering things more than adequately, though.

I've managed to get the Christmas tree and decorations down - the front room looks nekkid.   I'd like to start replacing the upstairs flooring now, but there's that whole furlough thing looming again. So no large money outlays for a while.

The other day I suddenly thought "In about a month I'm going to be a grandma."  WHOA!  That's sort of startling...  It has started to sink in that things I never really considered before may now change - like when and where I retire.

I'm liking the warm weather.  I'd be fine with it if we just slid right into March at this temp.  It'll have to rain some, though, to bring the water table up.

Carry on.  Have a giggle first, though.

  4. You can be like Brigid and announce to all concerned anyone calling you "Grandma" or "Granny" will meet a certain, swift, painful demise!:-P
    Just 'cause you qualify doesn't mean you aren't still tough!

    1. I don't know - when I hear "Granny" I think "Beverly Hillbillies", and that might not be a bad example to emulate!
