The Kitchen Table

Good Morning

15 years ago

How is everyone doing this nice winter morning? Things here in Central Indiana are on the chilly side, 10 degrees and falling right now. Just a bit of snow overnight and none predicted for today. We do have quite a bit on the ground already. I think it is a good day to do more sewing. I will be puppy sitting with KC today. He was here yesterday also. It would be a good day to bake but I have enough on hand and would rather be sewing baby things. Do you have to be out in the weather today? If you do be very careful if it is icy and don't fall. Tell us about your day today?

It's -15Ã¯Â¿Â½, up two degrees in the past hour....regular heat wave. But it is supposed to get better, and the sun is shining, so that is a plus. Have no big plans for the day, but that is normal.

I've never seen bedbugs except for the pictures on the web. Kath, I hope you had no hitchhikers. You certainly took plenty of precautions, I bet you'll be fine. One of the conference rooms at work had been infested with them. The managers wisely selected a different room for meetings for about a month. The exterminators were in on the day they were first seen. Speaking of bugs, today, I am finishing up debugging the tropicals that spend summer outside in prep for bringing them in for winter. We are supposed to get into the thirties Friday and Saturday evening. I used to always use a systemic, but this year I am trying something that I saw on Facebook. I am submerging the pots and as much foliage as possible in soapy water for half an hour. I am wiping all parts that cannot be submerged with the same soapy water, then rinsing when I pull them out. In theory, this is a great idea, but I have been using more and more lightweight foam pots to save my back. Foam pots float :-) I've been settling for allowing them to float sort of sideways and rotating the pot so all areas are submerged at some point for 30 minutes. We'll see if this helps with fungus gnats. I only have the 4 biggest left to do today, I got 8 smaller pots yesterday.

I had egg salad for my breakfast too. j Just a half sandwich. I was in a rush to get out the door to go ride. Passed the 90 mile mark in the virtual race today today! 10 more left. So proud of my school horse. We're sad it's coming to an end.

Paint: I would wait on selecting a color until you have your furniture and accessories chosen. The present color (in picture anyway) feels washed out and a creamy white would be more modern and crisp. - Built in‘s/tv location: with the width on both sides of fireplace being different, you’ll have to configure bookcases accordingly, if going that route. Suggest holding off on making a mantle change until you figure out wall - try to envision whole wall in your decisions Really like look below - Seating layout: really like your inspiration picture and as per the layout, centre to fireplace. If space in front of window feels bare, you could add the console table there vs behind couch as you enter

Good Morning I purchased a cabinet that came damaged

Hard to order anything bulky that doesn’t get abused and arrive with some damage. Can you live with it? If not, I hope you didn’t destroy the packaging even more because you will be required to repackage it and send it back in most cases. Maybe you can get a slight discount for the damage? The problem with ordering anything is if you need to return it.

It's 12 degrees here in Kansas and snowing heavily. I was thinking of Pizza today, but unless I want to use snow shoes, I don't think I'll get it.

It's cold here and maybe an inch of snow on the ground. No school here today. Have today off, but then work the next two days. Not going to be a good week as I have Friday off and then have to work the whole weekend. They just put me in wherever they needed me so I only got one day off in a row. Awful. Doing laundry and dishes today and relaxing...or trying to.

Its almost 50 here in the sunny south. Granddaughter spent the night with us last night and she and I made a lemon chiffon pie early this morning. We didn't have graham crackers so we used saltine crackers and the salty makes a good crust for the sweet taste of the lemon pie. Marilyn Sue, how very exciting awating the birth of a new granddaughter. I am in my seventies and how I love time with the two little ones that we have now. After lunch we are walking on the beach and playing in the sand. Its great to have a reason to build sand castles when you are old. So just a lazy day of play for us today. The two of us worked a total of 80 years to get to the place that we can play all day if we choose.
