1939 Red Cross Nurses

...you know what they say about all work and no play!
So, today I played. All day. No work. No laundry.
The beds aren't made. The only cooking I did was
frying up some eggs and bacon and pushing the
button on the toaster. ha.
I flopped on the couch and watched nascar.
And I got lost...really, really lost....in the world of Pinterest.
Sooo much fun! Many new boards.....
And fun photos like this one, that remind me
that everyone needs to play and have fun
every once in a while!
♥
I didn't make my bed either.
ReplyDelete:0)
yay! :)
DeleteAnd now I am going to crawl into it.
DeleteMorning comes early.
Maybe tomorrow I will find time to play, after my work is done, of course.
yes, and it will really feel early tomorrow! Oh dear!
DeleteMaybe we should play before work. haha.
Good for you! Everyone needs to have a fun day! Love this photo.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it cute? Just makes me smile!
DeleteI made my bed this afternoon....Don and I slept in....didn't go to church...had a late late breakfast of spinach omelet......watched Spring Practice with the Dodgers and Giants...A wonderful Restful Sunday..
ReplyDeleteLove the picture of the nurses. Makes me smile!
You certainly deserved a day of wonderful rest, Wanda! :) I think the mister made our bed this afternoon, too. haha.
DeleteGreat that you switched off - we all need that from time to time!!
ReplyDeleteTrouble is I could get used to it and find it hard to get going again!! lol
Like the nurses playing football - bet you played hockey at school didn't you.
I played rugby which is a great game but very rough!!
no playing ball for me...but I was a cheerleader! :)
DeleteIt will be back to work tomorrow with double the laundry. haha.
We didn't have any cheerleaders!! But I would think you were a good one.
DeleteWell enjoy all your jobs tomorrow. I intend cutting the lawns and doing a lot of garden pruning and tidying up.
Just made my bed and about to tumble into it!! LOL
Oh! What is nascar?
what is nascar? well, it's my favorite sport....race cars. :)
Deletesweet dreams!
I agree, completely!
ReplyDeletereality will hit tomorrow. I just walked by the laundry room. haha.
DeleteWell, you certainly deserved a day of rest! xo -- silver fox
ReplyDeleteI think I did, too! :)
DeleteBet you'll be refreshed and ready to jump into things tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteYes, I always feel like that on Mondays....when all the men leave for the day. I hope the time change doesn't make me feel like it's too early to be awake, though. ha.
DeleteThat is the way to be
ReplyDeleteThe cat sure likes to play at our sea
Rather do that than work any day
But screwed until we find that pot of gold at our bay
St Patrick's Day is almost in view.
DeleteMaybe that pot of gold will come true!
I had to work today - but I've had a nice relaxing evening! I'm going to have to go over to Pinterest and check out your new boards. :)
ReplyDeleteI sure had fun. The possibilities are endless over there. I got lost. ha.
Deleteso true...
ReplyDeletetoday was rather a play day for me....helping my son build a ramp out of a dirt pile...playing basketball, football...
watching a movie...yeah i did not do much...
i will have to make up for it during the week though...ha
yeah, I'll be busy tomorrow. ha. You needed a relaxing play day, too after your stressful week!
DeleteWe all need a break, from time to time. GLAD you had one today. Nothing like spending some time on Pinterest. A lot of fun!
ReplyDeleteIt was very fun....I pinned lots of nature and art....so that was relaxing, too!
DeleteCould they have lovelier expressions? Nope. Glad you flaked out today. I may do that tomorrow. xx
ReplyDeleteAren't they cute? ha. You should relax tomorrow. Everyone needs a down day after a little trip!
DeleteGood for you! I realized a little earlier that my day has been eeeeeeasy, too! Went to church, came home and took a short nap, went out to lunch with my in-laws, came home and took a long nap. The time change was rough on me, I guess. No one is hungry for dinner due to having a later lunch and Mr. Dish always does the Sunday morning coffee and eggs. Nice to have a day like this now and then, isn't it?
ReplyDeletehaha...that's a lot of naps.
DeleteIt felt way too early to be awake this morning, but I will enjoy the daylight in the evenings.
I'm glad you took a day off! Even the sunshine has to set, you know, darling. (smiling)
ReplyDeleteVincent xo
yes, I suppose that's true. :)
DeleteI think.when we play or mske funny things (when we can).we are more happy persons sometimes we have to work so much.
ReplyDeleteAnyway Im happy you can play and fun today:)
Hope to make something tomorrow!
Always I dont like when we return after a travel, is a mess:)
xxxc
yes...it's the laundry after a trip that is so bad! And you must go to the grocery because the frig is empty! oh my!
Deleteyes dear Im laundry and cleaning lol
DeleteMaybe tomorrow....I would play a Little lol
One must always kick a ball around in one's bestest shoes! Yay!!! Glad you had a super duper ME day!!! You deserve it and more!! Take care
ReplyDeletex
yes...in your very best shoes! haha...
DeleteThe nurse's uniforms have really changed.
ReplyDeletethey sure have! I kinda like the old ones. Now it's just scrubs...but more comfy, I'm sure. :)
DeleteIf anyone deserves a day off it is you. And keep on pinning - I enjoy following your boards.
ReplyDeleteWell, thanks Alan. Isn't pinterest great? I need to come look at your boards. I haven't done that in a while!
DeleteWondered all weekend whether you were able to catch Slate and take him to the vet. Worried now that those plans didn't materialize, since no mention of him. Lynne in NC
ReplyDeleteHi Lynne! You know, we talked about Slate a lot here in the last 3 posts but it's all in the comments! I did take him and he did just great! Since he was already friendly, I just threw some catnip in the carrier and he went right in after it. haha. He cried the whole way there, of course. But then slept clear through until Sunday morning and woke up feeling fine. He napped in my lap yesterday. He's such a great kitty....the perfect mix of personality, looks and temperament. I show a picture of the new him soon. Thanks for asking about him! He was my 18th cat to take in for 'fixing' in three years. Yay....I feel like I've really accomplished something for our neighborhood!
DeleteBetsy, So pleased to hear this! Smart thinking to get him into the carrier with no fuss. My 20 lb. cat used to spread eagle across the opening, and it always took at least 2 people to push him inside. As you know, neutered males tend to not roam as much, so maybe you have yourself a keeper now. Lynne
DeleteOh, your cat is a smart one! haha. They certainly know, don't they? One trip in the carrier and they never forget. I've struggled with a few, too.
DeleteSlate is curled in my lap sleeping at the moment...I think he's here to stay. :)
I'm sure you deserved every minute of it! :) Not much playing going on here here today. Too much catching up to do :)
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you are playing catch up! I will be, too.....the laundry mountain is calling!
DeleteReminds me of my Mom. ♥️. She was already a Nurse at that time, stationed in Camp Borden Ontario.....thanks for the memory!
ReplyDeleteI spent Saturday the same......lovely and slow......even, dare I say....LAZY!
Glad to hear about Slate....lucky guy!
Enjoy your week, Betsy.....I will be alone for most of it....boyfriend away on business....Spring cleaning time!
Cheers!
Linda :o)
I felt pretty lazy yesterday, too.....and it felt great! :)
DeleteI always tend to get tons done when the mister is gone on business...and dinners are incredibly simple and easy! Enjoy! :)
Glad that you enjoyed your day of fun. I'm sure that you deserved it! xx
ReplyDeleteAnd now back to reality. ha.
DeleteGreat photo...just makes you smile!
ReplyDeleteIt sure does...I thought it was so cute!
Deletewhat a wonderful, happy picture. Gotta smile to see that. Play is good. Do you ever visit Shorpy? Lots of old pics. Have a great week Betsy! Taria
ReplyDeleteNo, I have never even heard of Shorpy! Thanks...I'll check it out!
DeleteYes ma'am.....everyone needs a play day. Can you imagine playing ball in those shoes, though? Wonder how long before she twisted an ankle? But I have to give her one thing, she's playing with gusto.
ReplyDeleteHi Betsy - there are lots of images coming out now of times before, during and after the wars ... and they did manage at times to have fun .. lovely photo though ..
ReplyDeleteSo pleased you had that lazy day .. we need them sometime - and you especially ... happy Spring - now your clocks have changed .. ours are in 2.5 weeks! Cheers Hilary
