What are you doing right now?

[nina03]

Procrastinating on doing some house work. Needs to get done cause I'm having a party next week, but I totally don't want to. Today is a day to curl up with a good book and watch the rain out of the window.

[WheatToast]

I'm thinking how long I plan to be in this bah humbug mood without snapping out of it. I'm making a list of things that may improve my mood:

Going to the gym, but first:
Joining a gym
Mowing the lawn
Using a semi legal herbal product
Having a late lunch
Taking a very long shower and exfoliating
Checking on the progress on the butch belly I've been growing
Packing up summer clothes
Burning a CD for my friend in Colorado
Brushing my kitties' fur

hmm... or maybe a nap


:cigar2:

[Bèsame*]

waiting to board an airplane. Sigh...vacation is coming to an end.

I have loved the beach, every day this week! If only I could post pictures!

Some of you saw the beach with me :)

[JDeere]

Staring at me repair estimate.

Killing time till Mary gets home with grub..........:giggle:

[Orema]

Watching Lebron James make his debut at the Staple Center.

[Orema]

Working (at home) and celebrating National Chocolate Day by having a double chocolate muffin that came out of the baker's oven less than two hours ago.

Yeah, it's nice.

[ReadandSnapFemme]

Waking up. Feeding kids. Getting ready for work. Needing coffee!!!

[Chad]

I am laying in bed like I am a king with my cuddly kitties. It is good to be a king for a moment.

:king:

[Mopsie]

I am sitting in chat (by myself) for football to start.

Go Skins!

[RockOn]

Right now, I am very worried about my dog Jeffrey. He sneaked off from Jennifer, Kevin and I four and a half hours ago. I have walked the woods, hunting property and ridden the roads calling his name and whistling as loud as I can. No sign of him anywhere. Will be dark in an hour. Coyotes, timber rattlers and other dangerous species will be hunting. My heart is heavy with fear for him. Jeffrey has to come home soon!!!

[RockOn]

Jeffrey just came home at dark. I was so relieved and happy to see him, I got down on the ground, hugged him, kissed his face and bawled like a baby at the same time. He was gone five and a half hours on an adventure to who knows where.

I cannot explain the stress the darkness brought on me. I know what is in these woods and comes alive after dark. I have been wearing snake boots all day because it has been unusually warm today for November.

Jeffrey sure was thirsty but he is fine. I am putting a 5 pound sirloin roast in the oven now for the three pooches' late dinner. :)

[bright_arrow]

Listening to music and wrapping up school chapter work for the week.

[JustLovelyJenn]

Procrastinating... I don't want to start today.

[Kenna]

Finally laying down...old furbaby curled up near me, Crate training: new pup quietly sleeping in his crate next to my shoulder (YAYYYYY, it only took one night)...3 other furbabies asleep in their crates in various spots in the room...
Right now what I'm doing is enjoying the quiet. Except for Star Trek Next Generation playing as white noise (my back turned to TV) and hearing Blade's TV from the other room playing the news.

[~SweetCheeks~]

Unpacking and trying to figure out dinner.

[Happyfemme]

I just took a shower and now I am steaming my clothes for tomorrow.

Listening to my co-worker answer phones, and things drunk people say..

[bright_arrow]

Watching 'Equals' on Netflix and doing homework

[Mopsie]

Watching the freezing rain... it's beautiful in it's own way - as long as you can watch it from inside your home.

Everything is closed here so I am off work. *Snuggling in the covers*

[homoe]

..
Enjoying peace and quiet.....

[Canela]

Finishing up some work items I hadn't completed...I've been online and it was an exercise in patience to stay focused on the tasks at hand instead of playing on social media...now here to see what I missed...lol

[Gemme]

I'm wishing I took another ibuprofen before bed last night. I am suffering from shoveler's back.

[firecat242]

Having a hot flash.

Watching - Letting the person in front of me decide what I eat for 24 hours, videos on YouTube.

[easygoingfemme]

Sipping coffee, listening to John Denver, getting ready to work out, thinking about what to wear to work.

[Princess]

Working? Using that term lightly, it's a very slow day in my office. Chatting with a colleague about our textiles club and when we will meet again. Looking like maybe Sunday!

[JDeere]

Trying to drown out the loud ass tv...

My dad is hard of hearing and refuses to get a hearing aid.

[PlatinumPearl]

[FireSignFemme]

Trying to drown out the loud ass tv...

My dad is hard of hearing and refuses to get a hearing aid.

Wearing hearing aids is not fun. There are reasons some kids at schools for the deaf kick them around like hacky sacks. Maybe closed captioning would help. There are subscription services that are better than the freebie captioning you can get without a plan for some shows. I don't know about all sets but mine is older and has the get freebie captioning for some shows option. It can be set by remote control to turn that feature on/off so you don't always have to have it on. New the set I have cost me around $300.00 but now sells at Walmart for half that price and there are even less expensive ones. I think all newer TV sets have it now. Craigslist is sometimes an option. My son gets all his television sets for a good price off there every time he upgrades and so far has had really good luck with that. Also I'm not sure who does it, or if they even do it anymore but it used to be if you needed assistive devices you could sometimes get them on loan or with grants. I don't have that info but below are some links to sites where someone might know more about this. Maybe turning it up is helping him now but later if his ability to hear changes he might need some further help to get full enjoyment out of watching his favorite shows. Sometimes people will be persuaded by asking what about the neighbors, kids, grand kids, pets in the home. Anyhow perhaps you already know all of this or more than I do but still for future readers who might not know anything at all, it's good information to have out there, and at least a place to start.

Taking a break from a painting I'm making for my sister's nursery when the baby comes. Hanging out with my Jedi and listening to music

[easygoingfemme]

Tidying my house and semi packing to go away this weekend.

[easygoingfemme]

Now putting some finishing touches on plans for my parent's wedding anniversary tomorrow. 50 years.

My brother and I were in the middle of planning a real party when he died. My parents don't want that party now. Understandable. Every celebration right now has a gaping hole. So I'm planning a home dinner party for them. I keep reaching for the phone to call my brother to ask his thoughts. Anyway, I have a nice dinner planned at home. Their grandkids and daughter in law will be there. I got them wind chimes that play a wedding waltz when the wind hits right.

[Tuff Stuff]

It's obvious ain't it...and i'm listening to some really scary ghost stories on YouTube.

Nightmare city tonight! :smokejoint:

[Amulette]

Indulging in avoidance. I have a big project to finish up. Something unexpected put the project on hold for a week and now the thrill is gone. Sigh. I'm going to have to go deep to find my mojo.

Celebrating! All of a sudden the sound on my computer just went out. This has happened to me before and I fixed it but couldn't remember how. I'd bookmarked the tutorial but must have accidentally deleted it. :beatcomputer: Anyhow I didn't find that site again but after forever finally found the solution. And now because of all the things I tried that didn't work my computer is running faster and better than ever, the sound is even better too? I don't know what could explain that but hey I'm not complaining. :)

Procrastinating reading this thread when I really ought to be doing other things. :-} FiresignFemme, most PCs over time acquire large amounts of cruft, which (a) takes up space and (b) can fragment what space your PC has left, and (c) some of it (depending on what it is) can even eat up processing power on your PC directly. (a) and (b) can do the same indirectly because your computer needs to form a "scratch pad" area where it can retain temporary copies of things its working on before it's done working on them. If your PC is running out of memory or the memory is fragmented, this will slow it down. So clearing out cruft nearly always helps to some degree!

[Kätzchen]

Sipping on a cup of decaf, and listening to my caT Petunia purring by my side (she's watching TV, I'm just listening to it, channel surfing at times). I am waiting for the nail salon to open up for business, so I'll call them later, to see if I can get an appt today. Other than that, it's a weekend of rest, rest, rest.

[Glenn]

Feeding about a dozen Blue Jay's their peanuts, watching all the other birds and squirrels eating their seed, and waiting for a phone to be delivered to my hermit shack today. I existed withouta phone for a whole month, lol.

Sitting outside on the balcony, with butterscotch toffee coffee, I have been painting my nails.

I'm off to work today, to take care of month end stuff. And yet, thinking of my upcoming vacation!

[Orema]

– Watching the news
– Waiting for coffee to finish brewing
– Thinking about the work week ahead

[Chad]

I am trying to will myself to get out of bed. It is overcast outside and my kitties are being cuddly so it is hard.

:sigh:

[Kätzchen]

I am at home today in my lovely studio dwelling, sipping on a cup of decaf, smothered in coconut milk and stevia... and listening to the a/c as I read posts by members of the community and thinking about what I should do to get ready for my work week (choose something from my wardrobe to wear for my busy day tomorrow, make lunches for the week, etc).

Since it is going to be super hot today, I might try to highlight my hair and go sit outside in the sun, so it develops the color perfectly. Or not. lol. I really need to nap and rest and nap and rest because last week was a rough week at work and I expect more turbulence this week.


Still, the prevailing wind of contentment resides in my life (for which I am deeply grateful).

Wide awake. In my zone, it's been since 4:45am. Yesterday I came home and realized I was exhausted after dinner. The overwhelmingly fall asleep mode kicked right in.

Drinking coffee and catching up now.😮😀🤔

[JustLovelyJenn]

Dealing with Social Security.... ugh

So its break time now. I've been listening to my classic rock playlist. Looks like I'm on song 68 of 108. Awesome background.

[homoe]

~~
Composing a well worded letter to a PA asking if he could be possibly be my provider instead of the most unpleasant and egotistical doctor I had the misfortune to be saddled with!

This is at a pain clinic and because it's my first time dealing with such a facility, I'm not sure of protocols and such. This PA asked questions, let me speak, and most importantly listened! In short everything the doctor did NOT!

[Bèsame*]

Catching up on Grey's Anatomy. Looking at their surgical masks and thinking I'd rather make skull caps..lol.

[Kätzchen]

I have an Agatha Christie movie playlist (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8G21Sl4U2As)going, right now (youtube), and I'm listening to the movie as I study for my tests. :tea:

Eating a bowl of lentil noodles and broccoli while I get ready to Zoom Easter with my nephews.

All day just watching tv, playing cards on computer, coming in and out of chat. Did stop for a bowl of soup at lunchtime.

After I have breakfast and finish watching an episode of Inspector Morse (a fabulous British crime drama, who done it, tee-vee show from years ago), I plan to go for a bicycle ride. If not, then I plan to work on a crafting project.

[Baby_Yoda]

Laundry. Work half a shift later on this evening, then maybe a movie before bed...

[Kätzchen]

I'm taking a break right now, after getting all my chores done for today (laundry, grocery shopping, house cleaning). I still have to finish up an art project today and get it mailed off to a dear friend who is having her first baby (she's having a baby girl). But I'll get to it tomorrow. My plan for Sunday afternoon.

Made an appointment to get new tires. By ordering and scheduling on line I get one tire free! I wasn't sure if a wheel alignment was necessary, but after googling, it is highly recommended. Thank you Siri. Lol

Watching the live coverage of SpaceX Dragon. Waiting for Dragon to approach Waypoint 2.

[C0LLETTE]

I am thinking about posts on BFP.

I am thinking about whether it is ok to ask ***** to desist from posting 10-12 fluff posts in a row to which few if any respond to and forcing any thoughtful posts off the home page before anyone has a chance to see them, whether they would have responded or not.

I'm not sure if it's ok to say this ( and I have pleaded this question privately ) but I, for one, am getting tired of posting only to see my post almost disappear before I've finished typing it.

I'm not saying my posts or anyone else's are so important or interesting but I wouldn't mind having a little time to find out.

[RockOn]

I am cleaning my new revolver ... just got back from target practice ... I have been looking and drooling over one like this for 2+ years. Bought it about a week and a half ago. Just posted its photo in the gallery.

specs:
Smith &Wesson 686 Plus, stainless steel, 6" barrel, shoots both .357 Magnum & .38 Special loads, holds 7 rounds, the action is both single and double, lifetime warranty, MFR Model #: 164198

It is so easy and fun to shoot. I love everything about it!

A friend of mine who hates guns said this about it and I quote:

"Well, it is a beautiful machine. And if anyone can be a responsible gun owner, it’s you. I know you and anyone around you will be mighty safe."

I could not believe she, of all people, said it was beautiful. *laughing*

[Stone-Butch]

I am keeping tabs on the news from the protests in the U.S. and in Canada. I do not see violence or theft and destruction of innocent peoples property. The Virus has hit everyone too hard and now some are losing what is left of their livelihood from those who do not want justice but just an excuse to pillage.

[Lecheloco]

Working, well watching others work

MODERATOR speech (but not moderating), a message to all members:

This post was reported for naming a specific member so I removed the name of the member for TOS compliance, but since we do actually get a lot of complaints about a member repeatedly covering the page with only their fluff posts, I do want to keep the content of this post. While there are no rules about this, let's just use common sense and keep in mind that to cover the page in quick fluff posts, this "buries" everyone else's post, some of whom, like Collette said, may have taken the time to post something thoughtful that other members would like the opportunity to read. I don't know if people have heard the phrase, "Step up, step back," but this means "step up" and post if you don't usually post because we'd like to hear from you, and "step back" if you post a lot because it's nice to make room for the quieter among the bunch. Thanks, everyone, for taking the time to read this.

[GeorgiaMa'am]

I'm taking a break from watching TV - wondering if I should start the second season of Killing Eve or maybe take a break from that show and watch something else. It's pretty good, but it kind of wears me out. Also, I'm wondering if the numbness in my foot is a problem I should have checked out, or if it's just lingering symptoms of gout. And, I'm taking my afternoon medications with a glass of green tea.

[Gráinne]

I inherited (read:took over) my daughter's old room when she moved out and I'm turning it into my genealogy/study/reading/music room. I even made up her bed with new sheets. My son's room downstairs with a connected bathroom is my guest room.

So here I sit, sweaty and tired but feeling good, having a snack of tortilla chips and water and getting ready to jump back into the boxes and bags yet to organize.

I'm chopping up a tomato, cutting up lime, cutting up some mango, washing, drying and chopping cilantro, cutting and smashing an avocado, chopping an onion, slicing some jalopeneos, frying up minced pork, turning the oven on to warm tortillas, and ripping up those damned "Recipe Cards" that promised me an easy quick to make "Oaxaca Style Dinner" in minutes.

I've asked everyone I know to shoot me if I EVER EVER fall for the "we provide the ingredients and you just do the cooking " scam.

$30 for a tomato, a lime, 3 small pieces of mango, a few sprigs of cilantro, an onion, abt 5 onces of raw minced pork,2 jalepeneos, and a pkg of unlabeled spices and a 3X4 recipe card that says, "chop ingredients, fry meat, warm tortillas before adding your ingredients.

Never, ever, ever again. And I'm just about to toss their box of "Easy Make Korma Beef and Rice". Life's too short.

Collette,

Thank you. I have one hundred things to do but I can't focus worth a damn. I am running around here like a chicken with my head cut off. I am trying to pull it together and get organized for her services on Sunday. I just want things to be perfect or as close to perfect as possible.

Your words above are much better than any cliche. (I had to look up treacly)

Thank you again!

[C0LLETTE]

Are you managing to eat properly and call on family, friends if you need some help?

[Wrang1er]

For the first time in my life I don't have an appetite. Which, I am sure will fix itself in time.

My nephew has been staying with me since Wednesday. He was so sad he called me crying and that made me cry. Now, I'm suffering from family overload. I think they are all worried that I'll get lonely.

Thank you for asking, Collette.

[Ginger]

I'm watching TV in bed. Last week I moved the big desktop computer to the bedroom because there's an air conditioner in here. I'm not used to having a TV in the bedroom and it makes it feel like a hotel, which I LOVE.

I've got Dr. Foster on, in the background. I will watch anything with Suranne Jones in it. I'm also checking Facebook periodically for the kind comments I'm getting on some good news. I feel grateful, at peace, getting sleepy.

Wrangler you and your ((( mom ))) were each others best friend. Your going to cry ~ and it's ok let it all out ~ someday you will cry less ~ times help heal the wounds but your never over it ~ you will find yourself referring to specific times like " that was 3 months b4 my mom passed " always referring to mom ~ it's a hard to lose your mom. or dad ~ that's why I always feel people go threw relationship breakups like their mourning a death ~ same loss ~ empty and full of emotions. you will be ok. watch CNN its a hoot with dump the trump always tweeting. lolol oyyy

Thank you again!

As much as you are packed with family and responsibilities right now, you are in the moment and that is just where you need to be right now so I'm really glad you are able to be there. The intensity of caring for your mom for all this time and the sharp pain of losing her is going to take over in mysterious ways for some time. And like Ocean said, there's just going to be a permanent "before" and "after" when you draw up memories. Sometimes it's sweet. Sometimes it's a kick in the gut.

Just keep taking care of yourself best you can. Drink water, sleep, realize that you too are healing.

It's a very dark British detective series that I both loved and hated...often at the same time. This often happens when the central character is a female.

[C0LLETTE]

Right now I'm listening to the construction work going on across the street...going gangbusters...and not a female worker amongst them...Good paying jobs, I'd say, particularly when almost all service industry jobs, where women tend to employed are shrunken down to almost nothing.

We need more women trained in the trades...more women in ALL of those trades. Those young guys I see out there likely aren't supporting families beyond minimum but I'd bet that many female tradeswomen carry a large load of responsibility.

We need to stop the myth that jobs for men are a priority cause they are the only breadwinners that count.

[Kätzchen]

I'm killing a little bit of time by hanging out here today, before I get one more errand crossed off my list of chores for today. It is incredibly warm outside. The humidity is rising and the heat index won't lift until later this week. It's almost like the weather we get during August (thunderstorms, as we head into another seasonal weather change).

After I get my late afternoon appt crossed off my list, I plan to kick back and relax and binge watch a few of the latest British Crime Dramas that I've been watching lately. By then, it will be time to snuggle up with my pillows.

Back in the day, we had a ditch rider that set up water sets for our property, twice a month. I forget what you call it, but "water sets" is what I call watering the property (making sure the lawn, flower beds, raised garden beds and newly planted trees -- get water). It's timed sets of watering. 30 minute sets. It takes a couple hours to make sure every area gets the water it needs to survive the heat wave.

[FireSignFemme]

Relaxing, was up till 5:30 this morning moving things around to make room for a desk my sons were bringing over. I had to completely undo all of the computer/other electronic stuff I'd just gotten set up, and move a bunch of furniture around to do be able to do that. Finally after hours and hours couldn't go on a minute longer, had to catch a little sleep before finishing up this evening. Frustrating because the whole time I knew this was something either of my sons could do in less than an hour, maybe even half. I kept at it though and got it done without any help from either. Now I'm just kicking back enjoying a well earned rest and working on dinner which is only going to be breakfast food - quick and easy. I don't have an ounce of energy in me left for anything else.

ATM: I AM DEATH CLEANING ... "DOSTADNING"

There’s a Swedish word for declutter: dostadning, a hybrid of the words for death and cleaning. And as morbid as it sounds, that’s exactly what death cleaning is: the process of cleaning house before you die, rather then leaving it up to your loved ones to do after you’re gone.

A new book called The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning makes the case that the task isn’t morbid at all. Author Margareta Magnusson—a Swedish artist who describes herself as somewhere between age 80 and 100—says it’s “more like a relief,” and that it has benefits you can enjoy while you’re still very much alive.

“Generally people have too many things in their homes, it’s a good thing to get rid of things you don’t need.” Magnusson says she’s always death cleaned, “because I want to have it nice around me, keep some order.”

Magnusson says people should start thinking about death cleaning as soon as they’re old enough to start thinking about their own mortality. “Don’t collect things you don’t want,” she says. “One day when you’re not around anymore, your family would have to take care of all that stuff, and I don’t think that’s fair.”


Keep a “throw-away box,” things that are “just for me.” When she dies, her children know they can simply throw that box away, without even looking through its contents.

“There can also be something very empowering and healthy about taking care of your own space and making it more organized while you’re still around.”

Death cleaning may have benefits for the cleaners themselves, and not just for their loved ones. Clutter in the home can raise stress levels and reduce productivity. As adults get older, a house full of stuff may also raise risk for falls and create other health and safety hazards.

Many people may engage in a type of death cleaning without calling it that—when they downsize from a large house to a small apartment as they get older, for instance. “It’s a new way of thinking about the grunt work that comes along with those transitions, which can be really stressful.”

Death cleaning is an ongoing process that’s never truly finished. “You don’t know when you are going to die, so it goes on and on,”

Death cleaning ends with death.

Seems reasonable to me.

I have been watching a Ball Room Dancing Championship video, over on YouTube, which was filmed back in the 1982. I couldn't find any Dancing with the Stars full tv show videos, so it's watching this video, lol.

It looks like an awful lot of effort goes into ball room dancing. For example, wearing a permanent smile on your face, while you dance all over the floor. Lots of leg work. Staying in tune with the orchestra and your dance partner. It's entertaining to me, listening to how ball room dancers are evaluated, based on their performance, style of dance, appearances, etc.

It's almost like watching coverage of sports events, kind of.

And it's kind of charming.

I got to thinking that possibly the dance participants back then were most likely in their 30s or so. Which if they're still around, they might be in their late 70s, early 80s? But gosh, what a lot of energy it takes to do Ball Room Dancing.

[RockOn]

Mowing lawn today ... came in to cool off for a while and hit the gatorade ... soon as I have finished mowing, I plan to kill most of my lawn with salt and vinegar. I am stocked up heavy on these two ingredients. The grass won't need mowing for about a month -->> it will come back even healthier. With this heat and the real estate I have to mow, I cannot keep it short enough. Snakes do not like short grass because it blows their cover and they love to hide.

Getting ready to go to a family reunion that I am not the least bit interested in going to. I think it's too soon. I told my mom's brother that several times but he scheduled it anyway. None of my siblings are going. I said I would attend but I am not taking anything and if I stay an hour that will be too long.

I will be going kayaking after. My nephew and his girlfriend wanted to get me out to do something for my birthday on Monday. I am sure I will enjoy it once I am there but right now I am not looking forward to it.

I'd rather just stay home alone.

[Kelt]

Just finished my short yoga routine, now settling in with coffee out on the terrace. :coffee:

[Wrang1er]

I am sitting on the back porch watching the hummingbirds. I am not sure what's going on but recently they've been fighting a lot. I know they are territorial but usually frequent the feeders quite often. Now they sit in the tree and wait for another to show up and they buzz back and forth at each other. Sometimes it sounds as if they actually make contact with each other. It's interesting but I prefer when I can watch them enjoy the feeders.

[Gemme]

Right now, I'm super annoyed at my local police precinct. Specifically, at the detective assigned to a security issue at my work. We know what happened, have it on video, can give her the name of the person responsible and can clearly see that person in the process of the issue, the customer who opened the report has given her all the information about the issue and yet, she still has not come to the site to investigate.

This is not Providence. There aren't riots and protests and such that might be keeping the department busy. This is a quiet area and someone who has EVERYTHING they need for a slam dunk case and they are not following through.

So, right now, I'm fuming.

Packing a care package for my daughter's bestie. They lived together for three years of college, including a year in a very tiny hobbit cabin in the woods so, I consider him family at this point. He's among the displaced of those who graduated from college during a pandemic. He floated for 4-5 months working here and there but it wasn't working out so he was trying to stay home with his parents but they threw him out as a response to him having had top surgery and changing his name. My daughter is leaving in the afternoon on the 25th to help move him into some sort of boarding house. No real kitchen except a kitchenette in the laundry room? So I'm packing up a portable electric double burner and crock pot and well, he will fuss but I'm loading him up with groceries too. Planning my list. I know he loves to cook and eat healthy so that's what my Mama bear is setting up for him.

That is so kind and loving of you to do. It hurts my heart so much that his parents don't understand what a gift they are throwing away because of their prejudice. Thanks for what you're putting into the world with this gift.

[easygoingfemme]

It hurts my heart too. He's just such an amazing person. Triple major in college graduated with all A grades. Always worked, sometimes more than one job at a time. Volunteered. Black belt. Humble and creative and a true friend. Not that ANY person deserves to be thrown out of their house but jeeze. He's like a parent's dream in my book.
