Monday a big storm is supposed to start through. I will have time inside all day. Today the weather is perfect and we are going to work inside and outside the house. What are you doing today? Even with working inside and outside the house, I will still get to visit here more than I have all week. I hope your Saturday is terrific or whatever day it might be.

I hear about this storm coming through. I hope it's not too bad. I haven't heard anything on the news recently. My mom is one of those who panics and goes to the store to stock up. So she warned me to stock up now.

I am always stocked up, and do not have to make an extra trip. I think hubby shops recreationally. We went to Newton this afternoon and I felt like the weather was changing.

@T_gray The weather has been great, but this afternoon we could feel the front moving towards us. Change in barometric pressure or some such.

@GardenGerty I'm not one to panic. I guess I'll get what i need. Only because i need it anyway. I'm not ready for the weather to change, that's for sure....

@GardenGerty just some stuff around the house and doing some catching up on the PC. I was feeling a bit tired today and rested in the afternoon. Hope the rest of your weekend is great.

Thanks for the good wishes. It is a nice cool day today and we're going down shortly to cut back some ti-tree which is starting to encroach on our entry road.

Is that the same plant we sometimes grow as a house plant in the US?

@JudyEv No, I was thinking of a plant that is a dracaena probably. It has cane sections and is often called a good luck plant. No flowers. Now I will have to look up your leptospermums.

@GardenGerty This is a native plant and not very decorative so I doubt it is the same. The botanical name is Leptospermum laevigatum. There are now many hybrid leptospernums which are popular with gardeners. They are mostly big shrubs with some prostrate types. I'll add a photo of one of ours. They come in a range of colours, single or double flowers but are much more decorative than the ones we're cutting back.

So far none of the "bad weather" has been that bad. We do get lots of wind in our location, though. We had some really cold days as well.

I'm trying to get my daughter motivated to get this stuff done we need to do before the rug guy comes on Monday. It's exasperating.

It is good your headache went away. I wish my daughter lived close enough for a visit.

It is Sunday here now, and it is still early here as it is just after 9 am here in Oregon. I am hoping that my day goes well, as i intend to do as much in here as I can. I have over $11.00 right now, so I will get paid next month. Starting tomorrow, I will have to work harder to make anything since it is anew month, and I am hoping to make payout every month, if at all possible.

With February being a shorter month you will have to work a little harder. I have barely over twelve. I had some days I could not be here at all.

@GardenGerty I am not here everyday either, so I try to make those days up by working harder the day before and the day after. If I don't make the payout though, it is okay, as I will get it the next month, like now, as I didn't get it in Decemeber, but now I have over $11. I have other sites I am doing and trtying to work hard on them too, so I will have a little more coming from them too, as well as from here. Every little bit helps, that is for sure..

I hope that you have a good Saturday. I went shopping this morning, but am laying low and having a lazy afternoon now. I have a few loads of laundry to get done, but otherwise, I'll be on the site and maybe indulging myself with a short little nap.

One forecast hubby looked at skipped Monday entirely. It was nice today, nice enough tomorrow, and then Tuesday it is to be bad. It did not even mention Monday.

I hope your Sunday was great as well. I know you were going to be busy. We did not get home from church until 2, because of a carry in dinner.
