I'm up super early today! My hubby couldn't sleep and got up around 2 am. He came back to bed at 5:30 and that woke me up. I tried to go back to sleep, but at 7:30 decided to get up! I'm enjoying my brew (coffee) and hitting those notifications. After this gets posted, I will se what you other early birds are posting about! It's another rainy day here, so we will be indoors. The hubby will have another day to rest his back, which is needed and hopefully he learned his lesson about trying to do heavy work all day when he isn't used to it! I will bet he has a repeat and soon. Stubborn man!! I hope everyone has a great day!! Are you starting your day out with coffee or tea? Photo Credit: Meme, Public Domain

You have a rainy day and we had sunshine, but now it is cloudy and windy and we are anticipating a winter storm to start late this afternoon. My day is going well at work. It seems to be flying by.

It was very windy here after the first round of rain early on. I was at least able to get out and fee the chickens!

@kareng My Dad kept chickens when I was really young, my mother and my Grandfather would gather the eggs, clean and weigh them and package them in flats for the crates. I have very good memories of those days, and I always told my hubby if we ever won big in the lottery I would like to quit my job, go to work for a large egg producer and learn the ropes of the business and then start my own. It would be a great legacy to leave to our twin granddaughters.

@Juliaacv Yes, that would be a great legacy to leave for them!! Actually, the owners of the boutique I have Farmasi products in, have a chicken farm. She always has to fill in for employees who do not show up for work or out sick. I often joke with her when I only see her once a month or once every two months. It's been a lot this Fall and winter!

Tea. I don’t like the taste of coffee (although I LOVE the smell of fresh roasted coffee), so you have to drink my allotment in life.

I can handle that! I used to have a coffee pot in my office when I worked at LSU. Too much trouble to go to the kitchen to get it!!

It's pouring here. And now they say rain and scattered showers through the afternoon. So another day inside. Actually the hubby wants to run errands, so looks like back to McComb. Grr!

Looks like the hubby has a couple of errands, so I will go for a ride! It's better than staying home!

Wow, you’re up bright and early! ?? Hopefully, your hubby gets some proper rest today—sounds like he needs it! ????? Stubbornness and overdoing it seem to go hand in hand, don’t they? ?? Enjoy your coffee! ? I’m starting my day with [coffee/tea/water], and just easing into things. Rainy days are perfect for staying cozy indoors. Hope you have a great one! ??"

Sometimes not. But we are trying to get his blood sugar stable again and off some more of the insulin. He was off the night injections until his stupid primary doctor have him something for sinuses that raises your blood sugar! That started the journey all over again. Poor you with 4F!! No thankies!! We have a couple of nights back in the 20's here after all this teasing with temps in the 70's and 80's!

@RebeccasFarm That's the same one that gave me a new steroid that gave me severe leg cramps. He knew I had been on a muscle relaxer for leg cramps and had quit taking it also. Dummy for sure. They don't pay attention to patient's history or listen anymore.

I started my day with a glass of orange juice and my husband fixed homemade pancakes with blueberries in them. They were so good.

Coffee for us and we've delivered the motor-home to a fix-it place to have a fitting under the wash-basin replaced.

Very nice! I drink several coffees throughout the day/evening usually. Sometimes substitute hot tea for a cup of coffee though.
