Rained all night last night. When the dog wanted to go out this morning I got up and put on my full 'It's cold and rainy' gear (tights with sweats over, hoodie, coat, heavy shoes, little mitts and an umbrella), got outside and YAY! It had stopped raining. (the yay is half sarcastic. Good for the stopping but I was wearing layers I didn't need.)
AND, to make it that much better, he peed once and turned around and came in.
A flock of flirting flamingos is pure, passionate, pink pandemonium-a frenetic flamingle-mangle-a discordant discotheque of delirious dancing, flamboyant feathers, and flamingo lingo.
DH and our 16 yr old DGS are fixing to go up on the porch roof and clear the snow off. The contractor requested that it be clear so they can remove a window and add the siding on the outside. I guess they think the roof has to be clean...
I hope no one falls off that darn roof!! There is a lot of snow and ice on it.
….and let the DH bickering begin.

Faith isn't something that keeps bad things from happening. Faith is what helps us get through bad things when they do happen.
*sigh* I just found out that a client I haven't seen for a while has applied for CVAP. I've been asked to write a disclosure in support (which I am more than happy to do). I just hate when my clients are in a position to apply for CVAP. It is great for covering a large portion of their therapy fees but is also means that they have reported a criminal act against them. The population I work with generally report sexual assault/abuse/rape etc.
I don't know yet what this disclosure is but it's not a good thing.
During Advent, my Church doesn't adorn
the altar with flowers until Christmas Eve.
Instead, we put out evergreens.
I bought a mini-Christmas tree, and
de-constructed it, to make a long, large
arrangement. In order to put the boughs
into the oasis, I had to remove the last
2-3" of needles from each bough. My
fingers smell of the wonderful pine
tree that I used.
Tig, sorry you have a client going through a difficult time.
Momala, your skills are amazing! I love the smell of fresh pine, but hate the sticky stuff.
The porch roof is clear of snow and ice! The guys did their job and the sun finished it for them. And no one got hurt!
Yay! Czech!
All of DD's friends have arrived for the party. Been a busy day shopping decorating but all good. They want chinese food for dinner, I just can't stomach it so getting a small pizza for myself.

I have a visual of you walking around sniffing your fingers .....

Sounds like a wonderful fun filled day for you. I would have taken dibbs on the Chinese though, lol.

I can't eat Chinese anymore. It just doesn't agree with me. 🙁
I feel ya.
If I get it now, I ask for no sauce.
That seems to help.

Me either, it's gross. Occasionally I will get a lo mein and teriyaki steak but beyond that it makes me feel sick, and not from MSG. Typically it is just low quality fried food, blech.
