    Went and bought some more ear muffs. The two I purchased have broken already. With the cold weather really could not go without. Was able to get quarters from the bank. Just need to vacuum. Will let the cat outside on the balcony later on since it is so warm outside.

    Staying home all day.

    Made coffee. Drinking coffee.

    Have lots of swaps to finish up. Between those and laundry and changing and making furniture covers, I am lanning on a busy, happy day. And DH is home - this time for at least two weeks!!
    Travel light. The baggage of the past can only hold you back.

    I put away the last of the Christmas stuff.

    Cleaned the Family room and sunroom, and some of the kitchen and dining room.

    Continuing my knitting project. A little pullover sweater for nephew.

    I really don't know what we're having for dinner....and I really don't care, LOL. Maybe I can come up with something at the last minute. Sigh.

    I'm TRYING to cut back on eating and lose a few pounds anyway, and constantly having to think about food is really not helping. Those of you who are the shoppers, choppers, preparers, and cookers of food know what I mean.

    I've got a pretty bad headache slowing me down, but still moving along with small tasks at home. Straightened the office closet a bit, and folded more clothes. Maui, that coffee sounds good! I might make another cup, or perhaps some cider.

    We didnt stay home here but it was grocery day so we went to the store, post office, and auto zone. Dh is getting ready to change the oil in the car. I cleaned the inside of it earlier. Just doing laundry now and about to stick pizza in the oven!
