Nothing much to report. Reading and writing and a chat with children and grandchildren is about it. Hubby is off to Beirut today. Wednesday we go north for cards and lunch. Should be a good week.
BEVERLY: I have had laundry in the basement in VA and in the kitchen in Beirut. Here we have it on the main floor but the bedrooms are on the next floor up and we used to hang laundry on the roof - a lot of extra effort. At the moment I bring it down one floor then dry in the dryer or hang outside the back door - though there are not enough pins and lines to do a lot at one time. As for doctors and beepers. I remember going to a party with my parents one time and him being called in from the person's house we were visiting. My guess is he would leave a number to be called at whether a restaurant or friend's house or whatever...maybe more likely when he was on call. I am also guessing they had doctors in the hospital overnight to take on emergencies...and they still do.
CHERRY: It sounds interesting to garden where you live! Hubby sometimes has a small plastic greenhouse he puts up on the side of a wall...for early things or he starts them on an enclosed balcony that gets sunlight all day. It sounds like you are a very organized gardener. I remember planting with my husband who did NOT make straight rows when he planted...I never did understand why his rows were crooked. How strange about the credit card being cancelled! How did you pay for the gas or did they check before you filled your car?
LYNN: Interesting about the meetings and how they have changed. Keep us posted Seems some LIKE the changes and others feel it will be a waste of money to go if there is no more interest/emphasis/help with weight loss.
PAM: I am off to find out about Breckenridge Have fun!

Good morning!
Laundry is going and almost finished. I still have to try to switch summer and winter clothes, but it is still so humid and hot here I don't know what to do.
I am going to do food prep today so I am prepared for food for the week. I am determined to stay on track.
I have a new book to start and will get cracking on that today. We did get the new curtains put up in the living room today and they look nice. It's funny that when you just do something like changing curtains you feel good.
I am happy to have the day off so I can get some things done in the house.
Have a great one!!

Hello Beaches,
Great news!! Weatherman says that by the weekend, we will have fall temps, with highs in the 70's!!!!! I can't wait!!! He also says that this may be our last heat wave of the season!!!!
Lynn, I don't know what to do about fall clothes, either. So far, haven't needed a darn thing out of the fall & winter closet. I do have 2 trips planned in the next few weeks, we are going to the mountains in a couple of weeks, then I am going to northern FL with my cousin the first week of Nov. Guess I will wait till after that to do much digging into the winter clothes. I am just so excited about the fall weather coming!
Not a lot planned for the day, we are going to an afternoon movie with BIL & SIL, then out to eat at the Chinese Restaurant. Then I have a meeting at church tonight.
Hope everyone has a great Monday!

Good morning. I had another credit card I used when I found the one I tried was declined, so no problem there. I'll probably never understand just what happened.
I did get my hoses drained and sort of rolled up. It was a difficult task because it was cold enough that they didn't want to coil easily. Added to that was the fact that my hands are swollen and sore right now. I just left the hoses on the ground for my son to deal with when he comes again. Or I may haul the ones into the greenhouse that I want to store in there, but that wasn't happening yesterday.
Today I'm going to concentrate on things inside that need doing. First on the agenda is the dishes from last night that are waiting to be washed. I've also been trimming plants that I'm bringing in for the winter, mostly herbs, and there are scattered leaves on the floor to sweep up. And I need to vacuum the clumps of black cat hair off the carpet that my resident little black devil leaves when he is tearing around playing.
Have a nice day, Beaches.

Slept in and then walked to our favorite breakfast spot in Breckenridge. We then walked into town and found Starbucks. Snow flurries were coming down and it was beautiful. No accumulation but a nice walk and steps. Now in our room and getting ready to read and keep warm. Have a great day beaches and keep smiling.
