Default Anyone just want to chat?

About what you've been doing recently... Or anything, really. I just fancy a bit of light-hearted chat

I've had a bit of a stressful week with a work-related assessment the other day and visitors this weekend. I'm a total introvert so even though they were perfectly nice it's felt like a very busy and non-relaxing time. But now it's Sunday evening, I'm watching tv with a cup of tea, I've just had a homemade pumpkin spiced muffin and I can relax for - well, about an hour, until I go to bed, but it's better than nothing!

Oh no, I missed this and your hour is over.

I just had lunch, we got home late from church, because we had lunch at church. But my husband is allergic to everything, so we had another lunch when we got home.

Thank you! I'm still up, but only just (I should have gone to bed half an hour ago but I was comfortable and didn't want to move! So it was a relaxing evening, Laurlor ) Linda, we had lunch at church as well today which made things simpler for me. Thank you both for replying. Goodnight!

Oh! I've been there so many times! Plans to go to bed and then I get too comfrotable to actually move from my current position.

I'm watching tv with my two youngest tonight. The two high schoolers are at youth group.

Sorry I missed you!

I just got home from our end of season volleyball party. My daughter's team won every single game but one. Out of like 30 games. And the team that beat them, dd's team beat them 2 other times.

My older dd and I are traveling out of state to the national homeschool volleyball tournament next week. So her season still has a bit more to go.

Anyone live in Omaha and want to come watch volleyball?

We just got home from our annual Fall area church get-together and the evening always end with a hayride which is so much fun! It was a gorgeous evening and I saw my first shooting star ever!! We had dinner there but we are so hungry so I put a pot of rice on the stove. Rice on Sunday evenings after church has become a tradition in our house - you can top it with whatever you can find!


Hope you sleep well, Vicki T.

Thank you for chatting with me! I appreciate it even if I was asleep for some of the replies I did sleep well, thank you - our clocks changed on Saturday night so my body clock is still adjusting and we were all up early this morning! (With the exception of dd1, who is never up early... I should go and wake her now). It's a beautiful bright and frosty morning here and I think it's going to be cold!

Good morning! Glad you slept well! Your clocks changed? I should look when ours do. It should be soon....

The house is still quiet here... I love my quiet mornings before the house wakes up.

I'm in Tulsa today. On my road trip. We're all staying with my sil tonight. She very generously offered her home to all of us: 3 moms, 3 teens, 1 kid.

Tomorrow we drive to Omaha.

I'm so sore from sitting in the car all day!

I like to chat about stuff without starting a whole thread. It's a good idea.

Great idea and thread! I'm in

We're trying to rehome our cat (after careful consideration and trying different solutions for 14 months...) and I'm nervous because people get so judgmental about this issue without even knowing all the details. Le sigh.

I'll jump in again. We participate in a national speech & debate league for homeschoolers. It is our 4th year. My 13 year old is OWNING this! She just came out in her tournament attire. Looking good.

Also, funny heard from dd17 (doing math) to ds 10 (practicing spelling): Please be quiet, I'm using letters too.
