Hello !!

Since I set an alarm today I will be heading out soon for chair Yoga. That's pretty much all the excitement here at the "Cove".

Have a fantastic day !

Good morning pholks. I survived Valentine's Day week from hell and I'm back at work this morning.
Bryan is off today and heading to the chiropractor...he's been having horrible back pain and spasms. He went for X-rays on Saturday and today is his first full treatment. We're hoping for him to get some relief. It was so bad when he was at work Friday he couldn't walk to the counter to help the customer. At the end of the day a coworker drove his car from the parking lot to the closest spot in front of the building.
Happy Monday to you all!

Good morning ladies!

Tammy - I hope Bryan gets some relief soon!! I know those back issues.

I'm packed and ready to go, tho I'm not leaving for about 6 hours. First a haircut, then over to my sister's house. I just need Cameron to pop over to help me put my suitcase in the car. It's a bit too heavy for me. I have other things to load, but I can put those in the wagon, and I lift those into the car.

That's about it from here. Just killing time till it's time to leave.

Hi Kids!!

Proud to report I have been mildly productive this morning. Did a bit of deeper cleaning than usual, and thrilled that the throw rugs are washed and floors are mopped and/or vacuumed. I need to do some work for work today, so the attempt to avoid that probably prompted my cleaning

A local florist in town offers a free rose to random names each day. Today is my day! . That is enough to motivate out of pajamas and into a shower.

Sun is out again and another above freezing day. Once winter returns, I will be grumpy, but I am enjoying it for now.

Safe travels, Penny. Hoping Bryan feels some relief soon. Chronic pain and back issues are horrible.

Well, how cool is that, Mel???

Thanks for the good vibes for Bryan. I'm anxious to hear about his appointment when I get home from work

Good morning.

I hope Byran's back issues get resolved.

The rain stopped and it might be 70 degrees later this week, maybe I won't have to wear pants.

PHin power for Bryan. I've had back issues, but mine were easily solved with exercise.

Thanks for the card, Tammy.

I had 32 staples pulled today, then we went out for breakfast. It was great to get out.

Two things you'll never hear me say! Enjoy!

Grab one for me too!

I survived yoga and got the garage chest freezer emptied and “thawed”. Pretty easy job using the hair dryer. For not having done this for 18 mos it wasn’t bad but better to do this than have a problem down the line.

That reminds me Linda, I need to empty my chest freezer when I move.. I'm taking that with me. Add one more thing to the "list"..

Happy Monday, everyone! Not much to say

YOU??

I just heard Robert Duvall died, he was 95. Really good actor, I always liked him.

Hi again, kids!!!

I never did go get my free rose-I forgot when I was out and about and I bought myself 2 dozen multi colored roses on Valentine’s Day. Walmart had them for $10 a dozen and they were fresh and beautiful. I was shocked at the price and quality so I splurged.

Excited to report that I booked a five day cruise in Margaritaville at Sea Islander in late June. A travel agent is hosting an International Parrothead Day cruise with a bunch of VIP activities. Nadirah Shakoor, John Patti, and Mick Utley will be joining us for the voyage and providing a special concert—maybe in the hidden Buffett bar room area????

I am very excited, especially a few phriends I have met in the past couple of years will also be sailing. I guess it has been a “love myself” Valentines Day this year.

A painful freezer story. I helped move a woman out of a humble home with the freezer loading last on the uhaul truck. It was locked and she could not find the key! I strapped the stand up freezer onto the dolly, lined it up with the door and......it wouldn't fit through the door! I think the kitchen had been remodeled anfd the trim was thicker. She left the freezer for friends to empty once she found the key.

Evening all!
Busy "errand" day here in still-cover-in-white MA!

Linda - glad you are feeling better enough to go Yoga-ing once more.

Larry - I saw that... I also like Robert Duvall. I did not realize he was 95!

Penny - hope you had a good time driving to your sister's in your spiffy new ride!

Sending healing vibes to those who are hurting and/or are in surgery recovery.

And CONGRATS to the US Women for their semi-final win today in hockey. One more win and the GOLD is theirs!!
