Good Morning!
I'm a bit late in posting today. And with good reason. I've been at my office (work office...not home office) since 7:30 this morning. One of my bosses - Bruce - is having a VP meeting here today and I needed to come in. I presented to the group around 8:30 and once their lunch is delivered I'll be able to go home.
My weekend was not as planned. If you read Dee's Blog over the weekend, you know that we were supposed to meet up on Saturday for some quality girl time - coffee, knitting, chatting - the usual. BUT, we woke up to wintry weather. It was pretty, but not what I wanted to see.
Looking out at the garden from the patio. The wind howled and blew ALL day. Poor Mabel was beside herself. I think she was somewhat bored. Friday had been gorgeous (almost 70 degrees) and she spent most of the day outside. Saturday she would go out and two minutes later be pawing at the door to come back in. Back and forth about a million times!
My poor Rosemary plant on the patio. I've been using it all winter (it's been mild), but Saturday's storm may have done it in.
Like Dee, I sipped some coffee and worked a little bit on knitting. Then I picked up some stitching. Then I decided that I really had to do some cleaning, so I dusted and vacuumed the bedroom. Not what I had planned at all!
Fletch was really jonesing for a steak sandwich, so cleared the snow off one of the cars and ventured out to a local place at dinner time. The snow had stopped by then and roads were not bad. He brought dinner home and it was so good (and I was so happy not to have had to cook!).
The other thing that happened on Saturday was that my brother, Ray, came home from the hospital. YAY. It was touch and go for a bit as to whether he would/could come home or not. Medicare was saying he should go to a rehab facility for 6 weeks for his antibiotic infusions rather than being home, but finally they were able to line up a visiting nurse who could come on Saturday (there is, apparently, a shortage of visiting nurses). I had a 45 minute conversation with him yesterday and he sounds great! It was so good to hear his voice. He will be going back for CT scans of his heart and mechanical valve every 4-6 weeks, but at least he can sleep in his own bed at night! Whew! It has been a scare for sure.
Well, work emails keep streaming in, so I'd best get back to work. Have a wonderful week. I'll be back tomorrow with a TNT update.
