Groupthink

  I have a chiropractor appointment today, and it's in the same neighbourhood as health food store where I can get the peanut butter I like and a few other things, so I'll some shopping on the way home. What's everybody else up to?

  I'm having lunch downtown with one of my friends from work, and one of our patrons that we've kept in touch with. After lunch, I'll see if I feel like doing anything else downtown while I'm there. How's everybody else?

  I have a chiro appointment this morning, and I'm hoping she can do something with my right arm and hip, which have both been bothering me all summer; I think it was all the driving and the extended hours in the car. What's everybody else doing today?

  I'm back from the cottage; done for the year. Today will be cleaning the car, gassing it up and returning it to the rental place, then starting the unpacking process. What's everybody else doing?

 How's everybody doing?

  I'm hoping to take the car and finish the bulk shopping today. I'd planned to do it yesterday, but there were thunderstorms, so I decided it could wait. What's everybody else up to?

I don't know where I'll be at this point, but at least there is an open thread.

  Still at the cottage. Talk amongst yourselves.

  Here is your Thursday open thread. I'll be on my way to the cottage this morning.

Thinking about coming home to do laundry and shopping.

I'll be having my coffee on the front porch at the cottage.

 Just a quick thread; I'm doing this late Wednesday night, still in Prince Edward County. Will check in later, when I get home. How's everybody doing?

  I have a chiro appointment early this afternoon, and we're forecast to have storms; I hope I don't get caught in it. For anyone who missed it, I had Biscuit euthanized yesterday. His chest cavity had filled with fluid, which was why he was having breathing, and the vet said that any fix would be very temporary, and given his age, and fragile state, I felt it was time to let him go. He had a very good and long life. This is the last picture I took of him, a couple of days ago;

 Biscuit is getting his annual checkup today. I don't expect any surprises; he's currently in the slow decline of old age, but nothing has changed drastically. We're supposed to get rain in the morning and then sun in the afternoon, which will be good for walking over to the vet, and maybe I can get some yard work in; yesterday, I could hear my creepy backyard neighbour banging around in his shed, and I dislike engaging with him, so I just went back inside. What's everybody else doing today?

  Weather depending (rain still in the forecast), I'll be doing an expedition to The Empire of Evil Walmart to look for concert earplugs and concert accoutrements. The concert is several months away, but it always pays to be on top of things. I've had Eargasm and Loop earplugs recommended, and I'm also looking for earrings in the shape of; gold equilateral triangles or pyramids, hot dogs, sardines or dice, and polka dot shirts or sneakers. What's everybody else doing?

  It's supposed to get pretty hot today, so if I want to do any yard work, I'd better get out in the morning. The forecast is for rain into the weekend, and I think the gardens are ready for it. How is everybody else doing?

It's supposed to be another beautiful day; a little cooler than the last couple of days, but still sunny.  I'm going back to the garden centre today to pick up some more native plants. Maybe some new ones, and maybe some more of the same ones as I picked up a couple of weeks ago, so I can better plant them in masses. What's everybody else doing?

 I have so many things I could/should do today; gardening, I need to pick up dog food, and drop off jeans for hemming (still) ...  What's everybody else doing?

  Okay, so a lot happened yesterday afternoon. I'm still not convinced that I actually installed google wallet. I dm'd a friend who is much more tech savvy than I am, and who uses google wallet. She was as confused as I was by what I was describing, and after trying to troubleshoot for about 1/2 an hour, she suggested we meet for lunch (have I mentioned how much trouble this is for a ticket just to listen to some music for 90 minutes?), so we are meeting tomorrow. My bank/credit card called about the weird charge on the card! And I said that yes, I'm disputing the charge. He said that if they don't refund the money (it's only 1.99, but we all know that is just the beginning), that the bank can cancel the card and send me a new one. I told him that I do want to do a transaction tomorrow (opening a google wallet account), and that cancelling it right now might interfere with that. So I said that I'd hold off on that until later tomorrow. When I got off the phone w...

  Weather permitting, I'm going shopping with my friend A to get some vacuum compression bags (thanks to everyone who suggested them!), and look for a new spring coat. I have a dog walking coat, but not a pretty dress coat. My friend has a favourite sustainable fashion store that she likes, so we are going to try there. And maybe munchies and beer after.
