Welcome to the Friday show!

TrudyML · Guru

I plan on a do nothing weekend, too!

FNW · Guru

We'll have my parents over Monday. It's not supposed to be very warm, but we'll do a BBQ anyway. May have to eat indoors. Then there's our dinner out tomorrow. Otherwise, it' lockdown as usual.

Lindley · Guru

Good morning! Getting nails done this morning and we are going out to dinner with friends tonight and not much else this weekend. You will enjoy a quiet house for a bit lily, but you would be happy to see them again, enjoy doing nothing Trudy, hope the sun comes out for your bbq fnw.

Yard work for me plus perhaps a trip to the outlets since they reopened. I have today off so a nice long weekend.

My allergies are going nuts today.

TrudyML · Guru

My allergies are the worst! Ugh.

Fort Worth Mom · Mod/Penguin lover/Princess!

Happy Friday!

Not much happening here.

Cate is coming down to play.

And, I'll send the kids out to forage for dinner later.

Other than that, it's supposed to rain, off and on, for the next few days. I don't know if we'll get to cookout, or not.

Time will tell.

I hope everyone has a good day. smile

Fort Worth Mom · Mod/Penguin lover/Princess!

And, the painters are back!

Just canceled my playdate with Cate.

Hopefully, they can finish the house by noon.

We're supposed to get rain later in the day.

TrudyML · Guru

Hope they finish! Yee haw!

Fort Worth Mom · Mod/Penguin lover/Princess!

I hope so too, Trudy!

Fingers crossed! wink

Nobody Just Nobody · Rib-it! Rrrib-it!

I'm glad it's Friday and that I have a three day weekend. Although I did agree to keep the five year old and her little bro Saturday night so the parents could have some alone time. The poop is in full force today. I've been changing diapers at an alarming rate! My BFF is coming for a two week visit next Saturday. I'm looking forward to it. Haven't seen him since February. He got stuck in Alaska on quarantine. We're going to go visit my parents while he is here. They're pretty sick. I need to get my nails done before he gets here. I have ladybug nails currently and they're cute.

Hope your house gets done FWM.

I'm starting to have COVID dreams.

that happened to me. I shut off news in the evening, only in the morning to get weather reports. It helped with the weird dreams.

FNW · Guru

My dreams consist of me freaking out when the boys or DH touches something out in public once things reopen. And people holding doors open for each other exiting so we don't have to touch them.

Have you tried one of the places that were marketed as walk in places? Fantastic Sams or such? Lots of people are having better luck with those places.

lilyofcourse · My spirit animal is a pink flamingo.

Or a school, maybe?

The schools can't open in most areas due to restrictions on the "10 person" gathering size. It is maddening.

TrudyML · Guru

I'm so over it!

I've been over it for more than 6 weeks.

The painters finished, at 11:30am.

I'm so glad, it's done. smile

It doesn't look like we will get any rain until after 7pm. So, it will be good and dry, by then. Yay!

Sorry about the poop, NJN. That can be, well, a bit gacky….even with one! wink

It must be much worse, with several. Hang in there!

Pics, of the paint job not the poo.

Such a nice day. DS and I will try to out for dinner but early to get the outdoor tables. All the restaurants in town are setting up huge tents to augment their porch seating.

I feel you on the dirty diapers, when my oldest grandson and great nephew were in diaper, both of them pooped 3 times each every time, now 2nd grandson and baby girl are pooping at the same time.

Enjo! We are going out with fr tonight and my dh and I went out last wee. So nice to do something normal again

lilyofcourse · My spirit animal is a pink flamingo.

We are going out for dinner. Not sure where.

Here too but still have the 10 person restriction.

FNW · Guru

it should be 6 feet distancing, period. Some places can accommodate far more than 10 people, some fewer. This 10 person limit is assinine.

especially if you have a reservation not show up.

Probably the same issue here then.

Tignanello · My dog name is, Sasha!

This might be better.

FNW · Guru

Better, but probably won't wear well.

I know what to do_sometimes · Frozen Sucks!

I like that but you need cute and welcoming throw pillows plus a cute area rug.

Absolutely! The best part. I was thinking pastel.

lilyofcourse · My spirit animal is a pink flamingo.

I like the last one. But limit the pillows, 2 total. Still short, but that's me.

Dinner was nice. Went to a local restaurant, The Local, it has mix of everything. I had chicken parmesan, it was delicious.

Southern_Belle · Nothing's Impossible

I like the darker couch.

Tignanello · My dog name is, Sasha!

Why are all the couches so short!?

I don't know, but it seems only short people with sturdy knees purchase them. 😂

Just found out my doggie has hook worms.

I don't like the pillows. A lot of pillows are like clutter to me.

lilyofcourse · My spirit animal is a pink flamingo.

Are you looking for something for your private use, or for a functional office?

For personal use, I think it's completely up to what you like.

For an office, I would want something simple, but nice. It needs to be comfortable and easy to clean.

Have you looked at leather? I love a leather couch.

Tignanello · My dog name is, Sasha!

Yeah, there will a about ONE pillow. That looks horrid. And it's for the office. Lily, can you take a pic of your couch? I'd like to see what a higher one would look like in a pic.

Southern_Belle · Nothing's Impossible

What about leather? I’m short and I don’t care for low couches either.

Leather has a "feel" to it that I don't like. It's not very welcoming or soft.

Here is the love seat in my living room. The matching sofa is in the den. I wish it were leather.

The flatter side is where everyone sits.

I know what to do_sometimes · Frozen Sucks!

That doesn't look shorter than the sofa's Tig has posted. I think it's more about the thickness of the seating cushions.

I don't sit on these, either. However they did measure 3inches taller than the rest of the sofa choices.

I thought so too, never wanted one till I sat in one while I was shopping for a new sofa. I absolutely love mine and is so easy to clean.
