It's Been A Busy Few Days

Happy Monday Everyone! the sun is shining and the temperatures are above freezing. The sun makes it feel warmer than it is but that's fine with me. I love sunshine. Thursday and Friday my son and grandson were here working on the upstairs. They're putting down laminate flooring in the hallway and into my daughters bathroom. It's really looking nice and I'm glad we decided to do the flooring and not just replace the old carpet with new carpet. It was my sons idea to continue the flooring into the bathroom (which of course required more work) and as always one thing leads to another so my daughter decided she wanted a new vanity and I have to say it was a good decision. They still have about a foot of space to finish in the hallway and then the landing on the stairs. They painted the stairs and we'll do treads when it's all finished. It took them 2 days of hard work to accomplish everything they did but they still need one more day to totally finish it all. My son is fitting us in between his full-time job and since I'm not paying for labor (only materials) I have to be patient and of course he needs to make money to pay his bills. The weekend came and went in a flash. Did the usual grocery shopping and house chores that didn't get done when the boys were here. Today life is back to normal. I'm enjoying my coffee, the dog is snoring next to me and I'm hoping to catch up here. Can't believe that February is rapidly coming to an end and we're getting closer and closer to spring What's going on in your little corner of the myLot world??

It's always nice when family helps family, you're really lucky I call this time of year the seesaw season, we are getting into the 80s today and maybe tomorrow but that could change in a few days to 50s and 60s, I hope not.

Here that's about all we get for either fall or winter, neither lasts long and from about September to April it's what happens here. Now summer is lengthy and I know I can count on hot weather from about May to August or even September. pril

It's a charcoal gray and it's so pretty. The stairs are painted white and we have a light gray tread to put on them.

Good morning! It's sunny and bright outside and most of the snow is gone, thank goodness! I'm up against my laptop screen to see to read but I can see to read this morning. Nothing much is going on here today. I'll be going to sleep in a little while.

@Marilynda1225 I only slept about an hour. I'm sure I'll fall asleep in a little while. All the snow is gone here now. Have a good night.

I'm so happy that we're getting close to spring and nice weather. I'm very lucky my son is able to do my projects and that I don't have to pay a contractor big bucks.

That will look so nice once it's all finished. Nothing special happening here. Vince has an appointment. I made tonight's casserole last night. I always think casseroles have more flavour one the second day.

My friend returned to US last Friday. I did some groceries shopping and household chores during the weekend. My nephew and his wife will visit HK on Wed for a month. There will be happy family gatherings in the coming days.
