What time is it and what are you doing?
8:00 p.m. well, had a pretty good weekend, didn't do too much, I just spent about an hour playing my video game and it's already 8:00, now I'm going to do some reading before going to bed, I gotta get up early tomorrow morning. Not really really early, but around 7:30 which is considered early for me, I normally get up around 8:00 or 8:30.

Total failure on my first Crab Ragoon's. Eatable but not great. Frustrating. Onto my next attempt next week. So much time wasted. Oh well. Enjoying my book. A Prisoner of Birth
11:11 p.m. EST Had a good nap, but a weird and unsettling dream right before I woke up has left me out of it. Expect Dmitry home soon, unless he again took Fernando home - that always turns into a later night than he means. He managed to misplace his Kindle yesterday. Thank goodness he had given me my prescription to put in my wallet (he'd had it stored in his Kindle). Still, I hope he finds it soon. I know how aggravating it is to lose one!
12:51 AM. Goodnight, GR.....going to lay in bed and read about more zoms until I fall asleep. Hoping for a good night's rest so I am not a zom myself in the morning. LOL
4:23 a.m. EST Anyone else here end up trapped on Oddee.com periodically? They have so much weird stuff there and I just keep clicking and clicking and reading through the strangeness and then hours have passed... O.o Well, I'm going to sleep now. G'night!
8:27am getting some reading done as I haven't had much chance lately!
(3:27pm, Dubai UAE) Just bought the book Divergent by Veronica Roth.
7:41 A.M. Good morning GR! Getting ready for work. I hope everybody has a great day!!

Thanks so much, Kathryn. I'm just reading messages today, I was offline for a couple days. I'm doing much better. My older son actually took a shower (!!) and joined us for some pizza Saturday night. It was so great to see Kevin as well. We love having his border collie Macy with us. Keeps me busy, and that's a good thing! Hope the packing for your big move is going well.

Thank you for your support, Chuck. You really understand what I'm going through. And again, I'm so sorry about your kitty. It's OK to be emotional about it, and it takes a long time to get over it. When I had to put our first dog down, I was alone and crying so hard I could barely make out the check for the vet. I cried all the way home. My hub had the same experience with our last collie that we had for 14 years. He tells me he still feels guilty about it. I tell him that Oliver relied on him as a caretaker, and part of that is making good decisions, even when those decisions hurt so much.
I Love TCM!!

Katy, I think of you often and hope the treatment side effects aren't too horrible. Sending you ((((Hugs and Positive Energy))))
9:01am EDT. Both the dogs are napping and I've been online since 7am. Lots to catch up on. Had a great visit with my younger son, and his border collie we're keeping for him is a real sweetheart. I only hope it doesn't rain--keeping 2 dogs and their feet clean is almost overwhelming! Actually, we're supposed to get some snow overnight. I usually love winter, but even for me it's been enough this year. I'm ready for spring. I plan to plant an herb garden. (I say this every year, but this time I REALLY MEAN IT!) Happy Monday everyone!

9:09 a.m. EDT Have to send hubby off to work soon, then will try to go back to sleep. Only had a few hours. Just clearing out some e-mail before I head back to the beginning and start working (again) on clearing out old stuff.Thanks, Terri. *hugs* back
11:20 AM. Good morning, GR! I have been up for a while. I have already had my coffee, watched the news, read a chapter in Rot and Ruin, ate cereal, and have been working on our to-do list for the move.

4:08 pmI'm watching a movie with my parents
2:14 Sitting in the library at college waiting for my next class. Finished a little homework I had, so now off to Middle Earth I go!
@ 3:49 PM CSTTotally in a reading slump now. I only got about a million books to finish so, that's lovely. Not interested in much of anything right now. THE ABOMINABLE just goes on and on and on and on--and it's long.
I think I'm going to try to read something fresh everyday, I'll try small novels and novellas, and then just work on my CR whenever I finish up me book for the day.
Chuck wrote: "@ 3:49 PM CSTTotally in a reading slump now. I only got about a million books to finish so, that's lovely. Not interested in much of anything right now. THE ABOMINABLE just goes on and on and on ..." happens to us all bro! Though personally am on a bit of a frenzy.
6:48 p.m. EDT Had a short nap and am back up. Have to fast after Midnight, so thought it best to save the bulk of my sleeping for that timeframe. Received a bunch of boxes of stuff today and for awhile had two of my cats sleeping in two of the boxes, but then Tiger's box tipped over and he felt all insulted and left, and Erasmus just became bored with the box and moved back to Dmitry's side of the bed. Clearing out old social media notifications and refereeing a quarrel between two of my friends... LOL
6:16 PM. Just cleaned our two ovens. That is one of the nastiest jobs ever. Took me an hour and a whole can of oven cleaner. Off to the next thing!
5:16 pm
Having dinner with my mom. We looked at beds for me today found one I liked:)

7:25 p.m. Long ass day at work... my brain is fried; but Bruschetta made it better. Now, almost time to read.. :D

Hope tomorrow is better, Monday's always suck, why can't it be Friday? We love Bruschetta. It's a weekly staple. Amazing but true, teens love it.

11:27 amI'm watching revenge with my mom and my nurse
12:00 PM. Hey, GR friends! Just finished getting cleaned up and ready for the day. We have been kind of taking it easy this morning. Or...we were until we saw our landlord parked in front of our house. We told him last night we are moving, but are going to pay April rent. So, he had a guy cleaning up leaves, working on re-doing the plumbing, and I think someone else out there doing something. Lots of noise that Is scaring the kitties. Mark is getting his haircut today, which be desperately needs, and I think we are going to just keep on packing stuff. Almost there. It's almost to the point where I can't pack anything else, so we are ahead of the game a bit. Anyways, happy Tuesday everyone!! Hope you all have a wonderful day!
Mod
Kathryn so happy that you guys have made such progress on your packing. It is always hard and frustrating, especially when you notice how much you have accumulated over the years. It seem pretty never ending sometimes. I have always hated packing ugh!
3:39 pm
Got a message today and now I am having an early dinner with my folks

5:35 PM. Going to read a bit. It's been a crazy day at our house. I will explain later because I want to read while I can. Lol
7:48 p.m. Had a busy day today, I worked a couple of hours at The Salvation Army and got some stuff done there, had a buddy of mine over tonight for pizza, hadn't seen him in like forever, he just headed back home and now I'm getting into bed to relax and do some more reading.
8:00 p.m. and I'm hooked on The Voice. Taking a break to watch it and gonna read during commercials.
My little dog is not feeling well today so have been nursing her. Finished A Prisoner of Birth and am starting on A Trick of the Light. tThis year is flying by!
Hey Janie girl, just watched your Vlog. Looks like you scored. What exactly is a read along Vlog? I just got Dracula.
What is up with your roof? Man, when it rains it pours
7:35PM Listening to the Blues game on my phone at work. Not in a reading mood tonight. Great game though. I have missed all of you and I'm so sorry I get so behind on what everyone is up to. I will try to do better. Have a great night everyone, or for Shell, have a great day.
7:39 PM Had taco salad for dinner and I need to do my homework and wash jeans. Really fun night LOL Not to much happens on any Tuesday right now. I am hoping to get farther into Paper Towns tonight.

Susan the roof is actually ok so that is good. My read along is gonna be just that a read along. Where I invite my viewers to read along with me. I also posted it for here as well. Then we will read incarnation after that. Glad you watched the vlog! :)
It was pretty tasty Chris:)Thanks. My homework isn't all that bad tonight. Although I forgot my binder in my locker:/ That wasn't too smart, but it's not like I do it all the time so maybe I can figure something out in homeroom tomorrow.

When that happened to me I would just hurry to class so I had time to work on it before class started. This worked as long as the class my homework was due in was at least the second one of the day. Good luck with that. Hope you figure it out.

10:07 p.m. EDT Liver biopsies both suck and blow. They did manage to sedate me, so at least I wasn't as awake as I was last week when they did my port, but I woke up screaming when they stuck that needle in... :-( Then I hurt for a few hours afterward until my pain meds kicked in (had to bring my own from home, of course... *sigh*). They wore off shortly after I arrived home, though. Still, they're kicking back in again. I had to arrive at 8:30 a.m. and ended up sitting and waiting and waiting and waiting... it was 11:30 or so before they took me downstairs, where I waited some more... The procedure itself didn't take too long, but I had to stay for 4 hours to be monitored in case I started bleeding. Came home to a lovely pile of boxes! Prezzies!! A plush Cthulhu, multi-colored disposable fountain pens, a nice lap desk which I am very much enjoying, and the complete series of Red Dwarf, so that was awesome! The Cthulhu even matches my blankets that I take with me to chemo, so he'll match... :-)
I think it's time to NetFlix it. I have been meaning to start watching Warehouse 13 and I saw some ads for it on SyFy today - looks awesome, must see...
Oh, golly, that does sound bad, Katy. You think they could spare a couple pain pills, or even a pain shot. Hang in there.Sorry to hear about your dog, Susan. I hope it's nothing serious.
@ 11:24 PM
I'm in such a funk right now. I can't even tell ya. Never been in a rut this bad. I can't think of anything I feel like reading or listening to. I guess I'll have to turn to the TV for a while. Maybe just abandon my whole CR and go back to reading one at a time when something strikes me fancy cause I am seriously bumming. I mean, I'm in the grand canyon of ruts.
