Quick Note - need to get ready to go to Anna's house for the day. It will be a good day. Not sure if I will be in charge next week or not. I guess I will find out today.

Good morning. Hope you enjoy your day, Cathy. Today we're going to hit hard at that basement and get most of it finished. We haven't been doing much the last couple of days. I got a few things sorted and packed in bins on Monday, but yesterday Julie and I spent a lot of the day in town.
We took my little car in to have a recalled part replaced. She drove it and I followed with my vehicle so we didn't have to wait around for them to fix it. We got a few errands done while it was being worked on. One thing I did find out is that I can still drive it. A couple years ago there was no way I could get in and out of it, but now that my RA is under control I can get in and out much easier. So I'm going to drive it more this summer. It is fun to drive. I'll probably need to get the oil changed as it hasn't been driven for a long time. A good excuse to drive it in to town.
Have a nice day, beaches.

Morning friends,
Light rain here this morning, not really a lot going on.
I think that I will just stay home & relax today. Yesterday, I went into Nashville for my hand therapy, came home to a lot of tomatoes that I didn't know what on earth to do with, I got it in my mind to make mixed vegetables for a soup starter. My pressure cooker will only hold pint jars & only 5 of them at the time, I made 2 cookings for a total of 10 pints of the soup mix. I still have a large container in the fridge, I think I might actually make vegetable soup today, even in this heat. By the time I had prepped all the vegetables yesterday, my hands were killing me & I really didn't sleep well at all last night. After the therapy (where she about killed me), then all the using of my hands in the kitchen,it was all just too much for my poor aching hands.
The dr says I have 3 different things going on with my hands, a type of arthritis that affects only the fingers (they are becoming crooked & deformed looking), a different type of arthritis in the joints at the base of my thumbs, plus the worse case of carpal tunnel that they have ever seen. So between the 3 things, I am in trouble. Oh well, I will just carry on day by day & do the best that I can. They think that some of the nerve damage in my hands may be coming from my neck, later on, they will do tests to see. The moral of this story: NEVER, EVER sort mail for 31 yrs, it will absolutely ruin your hands.
Enough about me!! I am so blessed that otherwise, I am in good health for an old woman. Keep on keeping on friends!

Oh Bev, so sorry that your hands are troubling you!
Cathy, enjoy your day!
Cherry, Is your little car a convertible? I picture you driving along with the roof down!
Pam, so glad you have your family around you and you can visit often!
I was at my friends until 10 last night and was up early this morning. I did make the bean soup at 6:30 and it is all done. It smells good and I will have some for lunch. MY DH thought I was crazy for making soup, but I can eat it anytime.
I found a company that arranges trips, day trips and some overnight, for seniors. I am going to book two for DH and I. One is to go to Cape May, New Jersey on his birthday in December where everything will be decorated for the holidays....and a day trip to Manhattan to see the Dutch Masters at the Met. I left a message for them to call...we'll see what happens. They have many little trips that peak my interest.
Have a great day all!

I went to WW this morning and was accountable. I then ran a few errands and got a workout. We’re leaving shortly to go to lunch with mom. Lots of things now checked off my to do list which is a very good thing. Have a great day and keep smiling beaches.
