Happy Wednesday everyone! it's a sunny start to this hump day morning but they're saying thunderstorms for this afternoon. I've already been getting weather alerts on my phone so we'll see what the day brings.
I don't have anything planned for today. I'm still hobbling around since I broke my toe and although it's all black & blue it doesn't hurt as much today. If I try to put on my shoe it's painful but otherwise it's okay. Gives me a good excuse not to do a whole bunch of things that require me to be on my feet
I'm lacking energy today so I see being lazy on my agenda. Hopefully my coffee will kick in and my battery will recharge.
Today will be my day to catch up on some tv shows, read and/or crochet. I started a crocheting project but then put it aside and haven't picked it up in over a week. I also started a new book and haven't read more than two chapters.
Trying to get some spring cleaning done has taken time away from my hobbies.
Sometimes living in a community can bring drama. We're having a community yard sale this weekend and on our Facebook page there are a few people arguing over the language on the signs. Since not everyone is participating some are saying it shouldn't say community yard sale and it should just say multi family yard sale. We have the signs at both entrances to the community. It just seems ridiculous to me that people have nothing better to do than argue over something so small.
Of course the person who is doing the most arguing is the self appointed community busy body.
That's my gossip for this morning
Have a good day my friends

@Marilynda1225 It's the focus of their day. They probably don't have anything else to keep them busy.

@Marilynda1225 This is my opinion, they have nothing better to do, they become nosy and annoying.

Isn't it crazy what people spend their time on. Guess they have nothing else in their life other than to nitpik about a stupid sign

they have nothing better to do with their time than argue about nonsense

They could probably use anything on the sign. When people see "yard sale" I don't think they care if it's 10 people or 100 if they can get a good bargain.

Still waiting for the coffee to kick in but so far I don't think it will be enough to recharge my battery.
Enjoy your day!!

I am so sorry about your toe. Take your time staying off your feet. I dislike busy bodies.

Some people do have to fuss about the smallest things. Some people need to get a life I think.

We all need lazy days, hope your toe is better soon. I've broken toes a few times, once it was real bad, with two breaks on one toe. It healed in a funny "s" shape lol.

Frankly, I am pretty sick and tired of people who just want to argue over everything, it gets old really quick. The simplest things turn into big issues. I just want peace.

This is usually golf day, but it’s in the mid-40s and it’s supposed to rain/snow some more this afternoon, so we’ll skip it again this week.
Some people. How about the signs say, “Community yard sale except for the the Gladys Kravitz-type who isn’t participating.”

Glad your toe is getting better. Hope the weather doesn't get too bad. We are cold here but sunshine for now. Too bad about the drama, I try my best to avoid it. Some seem to live for it. And the "look at me people" are the worst. Enjoy your day.
