Happy Monday! I had a lovely 6 day visit from my friend and, as you no doubt noticed, basically stopped blogging during that time in order to host/socialize. But now I am BACK!
Continue readingHappy Monday!!! And Happy Birthday Courtney!!!! I hope you will finally get to see Rocky Aur Rani, I forgot to tell you, there’s a Varun cameo! It’s tiny, but it’s there.
Continue readingHappy Monday! So far today I fed the upstairs cats, fed Albie, cut up strawberries, and went to a doctor’s appointment. At this point, I feel like work-work is almost extra. I did SO MUCH!
Continue readingHappy Monday! What a weird way to phrase that, “the day before the 4th of July”. Only makes sense in the context of “the 4th of July” being the name of a holiday. We (Americans) really should think about changing to “Independence Day” or something so it’s less confusing.
Continue readingHappy Thursday! I am still hanging with the nephews, but I’m also working today, which means I am chained to my laptop sitting on the couch. So I can write blog posts!
Continue readingHappy Monday! One week from today, my nephews will be visiting! We are gonna be at the lake house, and my Mom is focused on Locks. Nephew A is almost 4 and fearless in the “if I feel like riding my toy car down the street at 3am and the door is unlocked, I will” kind of way. My thought was, I just put my bedroll down outside the exit of his bedroom, Problem Solved. Also, leashes. It works with Albie Dog.
Continue readingHappy Monday! Last week my cousin visited, I celebrated my birthday, and I hosted a party. This week, I am going to run away and go to the lake house for two days. I still have to work, and it’s supposed to be cold and rainy, but I am very excited about being far away from everything with nothing to do.
Continue readingHappy Tuesday!!! I had a lovely visit with my cousin and did a million things (including meeting a possum!). And now I am back to Normal Life, blech!
Continue readingHappy Monday! I had a lovely sunny productive weekend (weedwhacked the yard! Bought a strawberry plant!), and now it is cold and rainy and I want to go back to bed. But I can’t because it is Monday, blech.
Continue readingHappy Monday! And Happy Anushka Sharma’s Birthday! It is rainy and blechy in Chicago and I am enjoying being all cozy inside.
Continue readingHappy Tuesday! I am so excited about Polite Society!!! I may even try for a Thursday showtime, looks like there are a handful of them.
Continue readingHappy Monday!!! It’s snowing! Blech. Well, good thing I didn’t plant wildflowers this weekend like I was thinking I might.
Continue readingHappy Monday! Today, for the 3rd time, the same fixit lady has come out to try to install a sink for me. First time, not all the parts shipped together. Second time, delayed in shipping but I still had her remove the old one. This time, not really the right size but we are going to make it work because I am SICK of not having a sink!!! (Update as I am writing this, just learned the drain pipe literally rotted through so this job is more complicated)
Continue readingHappy Monday!!!! I had a lovely lazy weekend helped along by a lowgrade migraine, and now I am ready to hit the ground running! Unfortunately, that means running with work-work, not blog-work. Booooo to work-work! BOOOOOO!
Continue readingHappy Monday!!! It’s been a bit of a day, as you can see by me writing this post in the late afternoon. But also, Spring Solstice!
Continue readingHappy Monday!!! I had cleaners come in this morning, which was AMAZING. All the grime of the kitchen deconstruction, neatly removed, and my house looks pleasant again. Well, until the next batch of workman come through and mess it up.
Continue readingHappy Monday!!!! I am so tired. 8 days in California, and somehow I already have jetlag. Or whatever it is called when you are in a different time zone and now you are in another time zone.
Continue readingPlanned ahead this year!!! Ordered a full dozen in advance for pick up at 8am. So I’ll still have to wait in line festively, but not for nearly as long, and I won’t be stuck taking whatever is left.
Continue readingHappy Monday! And Happy Last Day of Very SRK Valentines!!!! Heads up, Lisa is catching up on JHMS, so if you feel the need for new exciting JHMS conversation, check out her comments on my part by part post.
Continue readingHappy Monday!!! And thank you Filmikudhi for sending me messages to make sure I know about Sid and Kiara’s wedding. So nice for them!
Continue readingHappy Monday! I am so glad I got through January. Ugh, the month after Christmas is the WORST. Next Month we have Valentine’s Day, and I get to visit my friend in California again at the end of the month, so that’s something to look forward to.
Continue readingHappy Pathaan Monday!!!!!! I’m taking the day off work on Wednesday, my plan is to get a pedicure and see Pathaan. Because I feel Shahrukh would appreciate freshly painted toenails.
Continue readingHappy Monday! I think I am done with Christmas, except for the actual celebration. All the gifts are mailed or hand delivered to local friends, all the other gifts are purchased and just need to be wrapped. And then on Friday, my parents and I leave for a fun weekend in Milwaukee of fancy dinners and museum visits and other activities.
Continue readingHappy Monday!!!! Today I leave work early to do a first round of Christmas package mailing! I don’t have everything ready yet, but I had a magical realization that I can just mail some stuff! So it feels less overwhelming next weekend.
Continue readingHappy Monday! I had a lovely relaxing weekend tidying my house and working on Xmas presents instead of seeing Bhediya, and now I am back to Most Stressful Monday Ever. I’ve got 5 calls scheduled through out the day, and I’m days behind in emails, and blech! But I shall try to relax and just think of what I can do and not what I can’t, and also work on Angie’s fun Christmas card.
