So what are your plans this fine Saturday

[TallahasseeGrannie]

and how is the weather where you live?

Here in Tallahassee we will be in the high 70's and it is time to get the winter mess out of the yard. We're doing a lot clearning and mowing, and woodchips. Next week we'll put in some annuals.

I have given the chickens away. They are somebody else's problem now. At least I didn't have to dispatch them.

[purr]

1. Time to clean the cat boxes ugh.

Digging for kitty gold mines.

[TallahasseeGrannie]

22. Oh yes

when my last cat died, I decided to give up that chore.

[purr]

53. Thats the only downside of owning cats..

they shit too much :rofl: I'd love to potty train them. Then Id have explain to guests why the toity wasnt flushed.

[no name no slogan]

64. Reminds me of a headline from the Onion

"Want to keep a box of shit in your house? Own a cat."
:rofl:

[gizmo1979]

2. Gardening hahahahahahah

I live in WI,annuals don't go in until after mothers day!I'm hoping it will be warm enough to wash my car!

[TallahasseeGrannie]

23. I hope you get warm weather for it!

Can you start your seedlings inside?

[gizmo1979]

49. Usually in April I'll start that.NT

[Wetzelbill]

3. I live in Tucson, the weather is great

I might ride my bike to the gym. (I doubt it)

I probably will kick back and read a book I got at the library yesterday. That and my Uncle probably will come over and we'll probably find something to do. I love nothing better than to kick back and read though. Just love it.

[TallahasseeGrannie]

24. That's a good day.

[supernova]

4. 60 degress and sunny in Chapel Hill NC to day

I just finished breakfast and am going to do some house work. I've been sloopy the past couple of weeks. :blush.

If I have time, I'm going over to Duke to see James Carville.

[TallahasseeGrannie]

25. 60's is perfect weather for work. It is already higher than that here.

Of course you know the 'Noles beat Duke this week? What are the chanced of THAT in the real world?

[Inspired]

5. Resting....

I went to an amazing concert in Minneapolis on Thursday and I'm still tired. My muscles ache and I have several bruises that mysteriously appeared on my legs. Funny thing....my girlfriends have similar bruises on their legs, too! Hmmm, a sign of too much alcohol I guess.

We had a blast but it is going to take several days to recover.

By the way...have you ever attended an event, had an amazingly good time, and then saw a scathing review of the same event the next day? This just happened to me and it really pisses me off. I, and about 3,000 other concert goers, had the best time and reviewer apparently didn't notice. What a dick.

[TallahasseeGrannie]

26. mysterious bruises? Moshing, maybe??

do they still do that?

[swag]

6. Go in to work for a few hours,

Meet the woman for beer and chicken wings
Go help some friends move from their old house to their new house

I think we'll be partly sunny and into the mid-50s today.

Have a good day, Grannie.

[TallahasseeGrannie]

27. Work, helping friends, sunny day and beer

pretty damn good.

[kedrys]

7. Getting my car inspected

It's 56 headed for 74 in Houston, and I just realized my inspection sticker expired in, er, December. Pray that I don't get pulled over driving the 2 blocks to the inspection station. :D

[TallahasseeGrannie]

28. I remember car inspections

we had them in NJ. We don't have them in FL. You can drive a junker here until it falls apart on the road.

[kedrys]

50. That explains the state of some cars I've seen in Florida

:rofl:

[cmf]

8. Just got to do things around the house

Work on the bathroom we're renovating, do some laundry, grocery store, etc.

I live near Seattle, WA and the weather is cloudy right now, in the high 30's. The nice thing is that they're high clouds, so you can still see the mountains, which makes for a nice view with your coffee and morning paper.

[TallahasseeGrannie]

29. A day when you can get a lot accomplished is a good day

for me. They are too rare, though.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

9. It's overcast and 32 deg. F just south of Portland, ME.

I'm doing nothing this morning, maybe going to my piano teacher's open house this afternoon, and babysitting from 5pm to at least 10 pm. :scared:

:D

[TallahasseeGrannie]

30. Sounds like an inside day to me. Maybe a nap?

[Patiod]

10. Huddling inside, wishing I was in Tallahassee

It's FREEZING and the wind is HOWLING this morning. Guess I'll stay in and clean, maybe go to the gym.

As for the chickens, at least you don't have the problem my one girlfriend had -- cleaning out the coop a few weeks ago, she got bit by a fox who was lurking underneath.

She just had her last rabies shot on Sunday. Not fun. She estimates that, even pre-foxbite, her eggs cost her $8 each

[TallahasseeGrannie]

19. I once opened my biddie bin

(big wooden box for hatchlings that had chicken wire on one side) to find a huge...and I mean 8 feet...rattlers in it. He was slow and fat. I closed it very quickly, cleared my head a bit and went to find my husband. But when I found him I could not articulate what it was! He got the idea eventually. I was pretty freaked.

[Patiod]

44. Yikes!

The little fox only nipped her on the way out from under the coop, but she had to get the shots anyway. The shots were WAY scarier than the little fox.

But an 8' rattler? Makes me glad to live in a cold climate!

[skygazer]

11. It's been cold and wet here

I don't know if we're going to get more rain today but it's chilly outside - not sure of the temp.

I have to do some laundry, bake some bread (both wheat and banana), work on a work project on the computer and that's about it. I'd rather just curl up on the sofa with the cat and a good book. ~sigh~

[TallahasseeGrannie]

31. I think I might do a little baking today myself.

Oatmeal cookies, maybe.

[AlCzervik]

cleaning, my kid woke up with a 102 fever so no going out today.

[TallahasseeGrannie]

32. Oh geez...

we just got past that here with the two-year old and the five-month old. Fevers are gone now, but the junk in the nose and chest lives on.

Bless you! Hope you get some good nap time and a lot of orange juice!

[AlCzervik]

41. thanks Grannie, lucky for her there is a Don Knott's tribute marathon

on tvland all weekend so she's up in my bed watching Andy Griffith and chuckling. Gotto love it when a new generation discovers cool stuff.

[GOPisEvil]

12. Ugh...let's see...grocery shopping, bank run, oil change to start.

We'll see where the day takes me after that.

I've already been to the gym though. :bounce:

[TallahasseeGrannie]

33. Whoa! Then you've already had a successful day.

I belong to a great gym, and I rarely drag myself there.

[FarLeftRage]

13. Just keeping warm and dry.

Here where I am, in Upstate New York there is blowing and drifting snow... 12 degrees outside.

And I'm working from home this weekend running long jobs on my PC.

[TallahasseeGrannie]

34. 12 degrees. Oh my

I remember 12 degrees in another lifetime. How much snow is on the ground?

[FarLeftRage]

57. Excuse my late reply....

We have about five feet of snow on the ground.

[TallahasseeGrannie]

63. Okay, I have to admit it

I envy you. I miss snow.

[LostinVA]

14. Painting kitchen trim

[TallahasseeGrannie]

35. AH...painting. My least favorite job

but when it is done, it feels so nice to have a new look.

[LostinVA]

46. I loathe it -- but you're right. It looks soooo good when you're done!

[Crazy Dave]

15. Well TG

We're having great weather here in Jacksonville today, hopefully you are enjoying the same to the west of us. The unseasonably warm weather is making Mrs. DTW and I mow the grass in about an hour then it's probably showers, late lunch and watch old movies the rest of the day and evening.

[TallahasseeGrannie]

37. That sounds like a wonderful day to me

[scarlet_owl]

16. I'm trying on dresses for my sister's wedding.

[TallahasseeGrannie]

38. We have a wedding coming up in mid May, as well.

[Darth_Kitten]

17. pretty nice here.....

I don't know what to do....maybe go shopping or something, I'll go where the wind takes me. (besides, it was payday yesterday!!!) :evilgrin:

[TallahasseeGrannie]

40. Oh yeah..

payday Saturday. Best day in the week.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

18. My dear TG! The weather is beautiful here in LA........

The sun's out, the rain is GONE, and it looks wonderful out....

As to my plans....Who knows? Maybe a little laundry, do some book-keeping...read, play on DU (of course!)......

Maybe get out with the camera for some photos.....I'm overdue for that...


:hi:

[TallahasseeGrannie]

48. Have a wonderful, relaxing day, Peggy!

[peacebuzzard]

20. Working two flights from Missoula to Baltimore.

[TallahasseeGrannie]

39. Clear skies and smooth flying!

[mikebl]

21. my daughters wedding

my daughters getting married in 2 hours. i love her dearly, but i'll be glad when it's all over

[TallahasseeGrannie]

42. Oh my!

I hope it all goes well! What are you doing on the Internet???? I guess you have it all under control by now.

[yellowdogintexas]

62. we expect some pictures, you know nt.

[mtowngman]

36. My wife's idea:

let's go to Atlantic City. No argument here. Grabbed about 10 handfuls of change out of my change bowl, cashed it in for 120 bucks and that's my bankroll for tonight. :woohoo: btw- cold, windy and lots of bright sun here in south Jersey.

[TallahasseeGrannie]

43. Good luck! Slots? Poker?

I stayed at the Tropicana in '04. Great buffet. Lost it all in the slots and took 10 buck and turned it into 500 in the poker rooms. Then there was a fight in the room and I got kind of antsy and left.

[mtowngman]

47. a little of each

I start out on the slots, then go to the blackjack table. I'm not a big gambler, every time I go I either win 20 or 30 or loose 20 or 30-dollars, that is. Bally's has a little place called The Pickle Deli where they have the best hot pastrami sandwiches. That's what I'm really looking forward to

[LiberalEsto]

45. Sunny and cold in Maryland

Worked on sudoku puzzles all morning.

Now I'll run the dishwasher, dust, sweep, vacuum and tidy the house, try to fix a doorbell, etc.

Then order vegetarian Indian takeout, play rummy with my husband, and watch Saturday Night Live because the grandson of an old friend will be on the show. Cute blond teenager named Ivan.

[TallahasseeGrannie]

65. Good times..

[xmas74]

51. I was going to take my daughter out

to meet w/ a couple of DU'ers but we had sleet this morning and have rain right now, w/ tstorms in the forecast for later on.

Plan has been changed-looks like a movie and hot cocoa night at home w/ the little one.

[TallahasseeGrannie]

66. Hope you stayed safe and warm.

[ghostsofgiants]

52. It feels like the beginning of Spring here, it's nice.

We're having a kegger at my place tonight (god help me) and so far I've cleaned up a little and visited the library briefly. Uncharacteristically busy Saturday for me.

[TallahasseeGrannie]

67. You've probably started your party by now...have a great time.

[In_The_Wind]

54. Recuperating

I've pulled a few 24 hour days recently chatting with DUers so today I'm not doing much of anything.

It's near freezing, this weeks 10 inches of snow (which was really only 2 inches) is still glaring coldly back at me. I envy you the warmth to enjoy your gardening.

How many chickens did you have? It sounds like they were a problem. What happened? I'm thinking about keeping peacocks when I stop traveling.

[TallahasseeGrannie]

68. Stay warm, Joan!

The chickens weren't a problem, but they are killing all the poultry in Europe so I figured it was time for them to find another home. I don't want to deal with the quarantining, etc. I only had 14. I did have quite a few fertile eggs, but they've gone to another home..a farmer with more time to deal with the headaches and paperwork.

I hope the bird flu flies right over Florida. Peacocks are interesting. They make a very strange sound. We have one nearby.

[TheCentepedeShoes]

55. It's 57 here

We have had a Weird winter - no snow, highs up to the low 80's. We used to live in Tally (Killearn Lakes) and it has a really nice winter climate. As for my plans - to get out of my pj's and fuzzy slippers at some point.:D

[TallahasseeGrannie]

69. Sounds like a lazy day. My favorite kind.

[u4ic]

56. Absolutely nothing

I'll just be watching a couple of movies I got from the library...Hotel Rwanda, and the Barbarian Invasions. Other than that, resting.

I have a cold, and feel pretty yucky. It also looks that way outside.

[TallahasseeGrannie]

70. Hotel Rwanda..sad flick

hope you feel better soon.

[u4ic]

76. Thank you :)

I started crying 15 or so minutes into it, and didn't stop.

I still can't fathom humans doing this to one another. :cry:

[caty]

58. It's a dull one for me and the hubby.....

He has pneumonia and I'm resting after getting six shots in my back yesterday. We're both down for the count.

[TallahasseeGrannie]

71. I hope you had a quiet, restful day and recuperated

and my Sunday be the same.

[Initech]

59. Probably going to go get drunk with some friends.

Dont worry, there's no hunting involved!

[TallahasseeGrannie]

72. Hope you feel good in the morning!

[terrya]

60. Going to see a local production of "Angels in America"

by The Hypocrites Theater Group (my partner and I saw an excellent production of "Equus" they staged a couple of years ago)

They're only staging Part 1. Part 2 "Angels in America: Perestroika) will be staged next month.

I'm really looking forward to it.

[TallahasseeGrannie]

73. I envy you. That was a great show. I didn't know they had made it

into a play. Let us know how you liked it.

[yellowdogintexas]

61. went to weigh in at Weight Watchers (down 3 more yay), then

the bank, then Walgreen's, then lunch, then Foley's for Clinique bonus time, then Container STore, then Central Market and just got home. whewh

[TallahasseeGrannie]

74. Way to go!

[mvd]

75. I went to Target and the dentist today

I've had an old crown fall off twice. Had to get a new one today. She had tried to use super glue for it, as the post had also fallen off.

No big plans for tomorrow. I thought I wouldn't post on DU today, but the day was slower than I expected it to be.

The weather is chilly and windy, with spring-like temps coming soon.
