Well, it's 4:30 am here, and I've been awake since 1:00 am. But it's for a good reason: I feel happy and free!!! It's been 6 weeks since I retired, and I'm finally starting to relax about a lot of things. And getting to do things I enjoy doing. Since I woke up at 1:00, that Monty Python song, "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life" has been running through my head- and I don't mind one bit, because I can NAP tomorrow (...I mean today! :p ) if I need to!!!
I'm too excited to go back to sleep! :):):)

Congratulations! Think of us prisoners now and then, won't you, when you're living free out in the world?

Evening all - hope everyone is well.
Just popping in quickly before I head out to do a bit of shopping.
I'm usually pretty good for original gift ideas but this year I've drawn a blank on what to get everyone that I still buy for.
People have so much stuff these days its almost impossible to think of something they would like, need or use!
So I'm off to wander aimlessly around a few shops.
See you later

SNOW DAYYYYYYYY!!!!! Woo hooo!!! This is the first time the school district has called a snow day since we've lived here, they make us trudge through everything! Not today!!! Woo hoo!

Going to get caught up on some cleaning, listen to loud music with some "Charlie Brown Christmas" thrown in, and bake some Peach cobbler.

Off to put snow pants on kids! Woo hoo!
Enjoy!!!!:)
But hope it doesn't last too long!
