I am staying home for the holiday, anybody else doing the same.

I hate the traffic and the crowds, going to stay home and have a bbq for some friends.

Except for going out to dinner tonight to a neighborhood place we've never been to before, we're staying home and catching up on household chores. Would love to ride over to Red River and look at mountains, but this isn't the time for it. I plan to read some of the (too) many library books I have out. Mr 'pede can work on his radio controlled model sail boat.

:toast:

The traffic , crowds and (now) gas prices are keeping me
close to home.

I'll catch up on some work at home and relax,too.

:toast:

It'll be nice and relaxing.:hi:

ribs, white corn, watermelon and banana pudding.

I will be having chicken and ribs. Other folks will bring the rest, have a good holiday.

Gotta get me some.

Like me.

I wiggled out of the invites we had... and I'm HAPPY!!!... Want to garden, and nap and listen to music. Just kick back... ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I have nice backyard, good food and friends. Have a good holiday.

Just some day trips. This is my speed.

I will be starting back to work on Tuesday.

Have a great Holiday Steely.

I didn't get to take any vaca last year - figured I'd just take them - who sez ya gotta "go" someplace?
You have a nice holiday too.

Have a great holiday and have some fun.

:hi:

SO I have to stay home. But I can't complain, triple time on Monday.

Labor Day.


Have a good Holiday.

We ALWAYS stay home over holiday weekends!

I will be busy doing political tabling the whole three days.....

We have no plans for entertaining, or being entertained.....

Our lives are very quiet.......

The candle is still burning.

I am feeling just fine, thanks!

No test results yet....next Monday or Tuesday.......

Thank you for the burning candle, sweetie..... :hug:

Sunday we have to go do the family rounds.

Take it easy and have a great holiday.

I work all week and feel like I never get to spend time in my house...and around it (gardening!)

I was gone for a few months, really missed the old house.

My garden is doing pretty good considering how late it got started.

we are packing up in prep for our move out on next Wednesday, then yes, I am. We're moving cross country (I've straddled Austin and Seattle for nearly five years) and this time it's permanent! No more Austin. All Seattle, all the time! Insert happy dance, albeit somewhat exhausted, here.

job. I have a Aunt I have be near, just stuff going on.

I hate to move, I still have boxes I haven't open when I moved to this house.

I lived in Austin for a few years, I loved it but every time I tried to move back it never worked out.


I heard that Seattle is bike friendly city, that I would love.

Liberal friendly to the point that I once read an article that said Republicans feel "marginalized" there. Of course, Republicans can feel "marginalized" over any slight, real or imagined.

So that's good. Frankly, I don't feel like being bothered with people this weekend anyway. It'll be a nice rest. :thumbsup:

I do like to be alone sometimes with just my pets.

Enjoy your movies and have a great holiday.

754 miles round trip including getting lost.

Attended my daughter's graduation from college...now I am staying home to recover.

You now have a long weekend to recover, have a great holiday.

Of course I am proud of her. That goes without question.
She has an apt up there now, so I am truly an empty nester.

I did not know she was not coming home until very recently, so
I am missing her very much.

of community college.

She moved to another state to finish her last two years, the house was very empty without her.

I know how you are feeling now.:grouphug: :hug:

I'm at my daughter's in CA (after seeing my first grandbaby born yesterday) and have to be back to work in AZ on Tues. Will be leaving on Sunday to arrive home on Monday.

Congratulations to the new mommy and new grandmommy!

Sounds relaxing, which is what holidays are for :)

We're going to spend the day with old friends on the other side of the mountain who have a hoedown and a hootinanny planned. I've been invited to sing and pick but I'm so out of practice :blush:

Talked to my old Cherokee bass player tonight to see who might show up to jam and that got me psyched. He's one of those bass players who kicks back and closes his eyes and goes with the musical flow....so I'm looking forward to a melodic day.

I have to do a tribute to my son's Ranger buddies at some point, and just thinking about that made me weep while driving tonight. Maybe if I cry now I'll be cool and collected on Monday.

have a good holiday all :patriot:

old "up north" family cabins and they started leaving yesterday.

However, we aren't natives (so we don't have a cabin, darn it) and I don't like enjoying nature with a crowd, so the inmates of this zoo are hangin' around town. The good news is that we'll practically have the place to ourselves...:-)

Have a lovely, relaxing weekend, Texanwitch!

:pals:

That's right - I let everyone come to ME! :D

but next weekend we're heading out for a week or 10 days in the Alaska wilderness. Woo-hoo!!

a family picnic in central PA on Monday. :hi:

But I don't have to go anywhere to have fun ;-)

Today (5/27) I attended a birthday party at my niece's house. Her son and the daughter of a friend both turned 7. I got to toss batting practice for the kids who attended the party. I had a good time. The food was great!!!!
