Good Morning, Andi! I’m trying an experiment of sleeping a little later. I’m hoping to not pass out on the couch as soon as I get home tonight.
It worked yesterday — I didn’t need a nap at all and even cleaned the bedroom at 11pm! I’m still working on the website — and staying awake this evening would make it easier to continue after work.
Everything is fine here other than it’s gotten a lot colder and it looks like we are heading for some real winter temps — just when I’d gotten spoiled and believed we weren’t going to have any.
I’ve got a conference call in a few minute I need to get ready for so I’ll just do my mother hen thing and remind you to dress warmly and cover your head and ears when you’re outside.
That’s when I first went — and disturbed my mother mightily by not being homesick for one minute and having been there for one week (out of four) asking her if I could go back for 8 weeks the next summer (which I did for the next two years).
Well, I think a week away would be nice for both my guys, and for me…I’m thinking sailing camp. Quite a few of the kids around us spend most of their summers there, so at least they’d have friends there.
(I’m feeling guilty right now, because the young man came back in from the bus stop and sobbed for a few minutes…now he’s finishing a bagel, and I’m going to drive him to school.)
I’ve never been able to successfully stay away from overnight without family. I still can’t do it without suffering horrible headaches. I’ve got no idea why — I was like this as a child & I’ve recently realized that it has continued my entire life (making the few business trips I’ve been on to places without siblings miserable). In fact, I have a “story” about my attempt to go to summer camp — but I’ll have to wait to tell it. I’m still working on the Just 4 Today entry. I’ve done the Eat4Today Commitment entry, for those interested.
How are you today?
And good morning to all the other earlier risers.

How’s things?

It’s done the same here! My ears got numb on my walk yesterday & I even pulled up the hood on my coat (which I’ve never done before)
And now (thanks for reminding me to look) It’s 20.8 degrees outside!! We haven’t seen temperatures like this since early December.
Hmmm. I don’t want to go outside.

See ya’ later.
Wow, CtY is in a peach of a mood this morning…I feel like I should have sent a note of apology to his teacher today!
And now I’m thinking “away camp this summer”…is 11 too young?

I’m going to drink 2 liters of water — Just 4 today, what about you?
Good Morning
How’s everyone in the pond? It’ cold here, but nothing I’m sure like the rest of the country.
Good Morning.
I’m about to go into lurker phase. I didn’t win the lottery so I have to keep working. sigh.
Even though you aren’t as cold as the rest of the country — everything is relative and you may FEEL colder. So stay warm!
Hi Mary
Oh the woes of not winning the lottery, or the woes of winning it. I agree it’s relative with the cold.
I’m heading out early too. We have car trouble (alternator, I was told) and I have to find someone to fix it.
Everyone have a good day in the pond.
