What a Dreary Monday

United States
December 9, 2024 9:46am CST
Happy Monday Everyone! it's a rainy morning and although we need the rain and it's certainly better than snow, it's just dismal. I'm sitting here enjoying my coffee and I have the Christmas tree lit. It adds some ambience and I'm not ready to turn on the lights. I hate when it's so dark and dreary that you need the inside lights on during the day. Since I couldn't find my box of Christmas cards I ordered new ones. They came yesterday and I'm a bit disappointed. For Hallmark cards they seem cheap and flimsy, but I'll send them anyway. I got nicer cards from Current and will probably think twice before buying Hallmark again (unless it's a single card from the actual store). No exciting plans for today. Just the usual stuff to do around the house and figuring out what to make for dinner. What's happening in your little corner of the myLot world?

Oh it is here too so dreary and so cold but I don't mind it. I want to stay in and be cozy. I hope you have a lovely day.

Your weather sounds like our weather. Today, I have an appointment with the cupping/massage lady, then I’ll be mailing more Christmas cards (hopefully yours won’t be stolen again). After that, I’ll drop by my dad’s if he is home. I hope your days starts to lighten, literally!

We just got back from banking up North, Taco Bell and doing some grocery shopping for me. Who knows when I will have my car again? This outfit may be cheap, but they are a bunch of slow pokes, manage to order the wrong parts and other mumbo jumbo. Friend has to do a notary tomorrow AM so he is taking off.

I luckily found my Christmas cards so I didn't have to order new ones. I wish we could get some nice ones like I used to find. The ones I see usually have some weird saying or the picture is not really nice. Nothing happening here today. Appointments the next few days though.

I am in the same situation. I like the rain for my garden but not for that party.

It was dark and cloudy here today. It is super mild and it rained on and off lightly. I will take the rain over the snow, you don't have to shovel rain.

Your cozy morning with coffee, a lit Christmas tree sounds like a lovely way to combat the gloom of a rainy day

I was able to use cards left over from last year but I hope to buy more if they go on special soon. I like having cards onhand when it comes to Christmas.

I normally have all my Christmas cards in the mail by now; but I haven't started them yet. I lost my cards a couple of years ago; so I ordered more. Now I have a ton since I found the original ones. They're all from Current and are really nice. Have a good day.

I went to my nephew's place for dinner tonight. They celebrated my birthday in advance. My birthday is on Dec 14. We also decorated the Christmas together. It's a heart-warming evening.
