Good morning.
Today starts the week of the heat. 53 right now with pure blue skies, and high of 75 predicted. Starting today, every day will get warmer and warmer, till we are up to around 90 on Saturday.
Hello to Marsha. Hope you have your garden all up and running. My DD and DSIL have been working on theirs all weekend, and still today there is things to do. At least yesterday was a good day for doing it, till supper time, when some rain came.
Hello Anngie. Hope you had a great weekend. I can not recall when you were expected back.
Robin, I am so happy the venue I am using had decided we could do the regular buffet. What they were doing the pandemic was, everyone was seated; there was a buffet, and you would tell the server what you wanted, so they would get it and bring it to you, at the table. I myself prefer to just go up the buffet line and get whatever I want, it just works better that way, in my opinion.
The little bit of rain we got yesterday, around dinnertime sure wasn't much. They had really talked this "storm" up, to possibly be severe, well what I saw, between being in GB, then going home, was a lot of wind, then a light rain, and that was it. Can't water any thing with that amount of rain!
You went to Bed Bath and Beyond!!! One of my most favorite stores!!! It kills me that realistically, there is nothing that I need from there. Sorry you have to take that shelf unit back. Where were you going to put it?
Tell me again, when are you and DH looking to leave for your driving trip?
Gareth, hope your hand gets better and better.
I miss those days, of DH going with me shopping, and then doing most of the brunt work, hauling all the bags up the stairs. Oh well, I guess by me doing it all now strengthening my body, right?
How was WM on a Memorial day morning? I went to the store I used to work at, nice and early, and it was perfect!
Have a safe trip tomorrow, and good luck visiting your friend. I am glad he is asking for you. That shows how much you mean to him. Do you think this will be the last time you see him? I will be praying for you all.
Your only expecting 80's for the weekend? They keep saying 90 here for Saturday. I warned my sister, as she is having us all over, for an early dinner, and her and her DH keep their condo a bit on the warm side, so with those extra bodies in there, it will heat up for sure!
Pinky, how good of you to go to those ceremonies for the soldiers that passed for us. I can not go to those, I would be a blubbering mess. I am not willing to let strangers see me react that way. Not pretty!
Lol, I too will be complaining about the heat, as why does it have to get SO hot? Can't it just go to 82 and then stop?
Glad your DH is doing so much better!!! It sure throws things off when the men in the family get sick! Of course the worst is when DW gets taken down by a sickness. Then the whole world stops, right?
Carol, that is so so sad about your neighbor passing away, but at least he passed in bed, not more perfect way to die, in my opinion. Most people want to die at home, so where would that be, but in bed. I am surprised they are keeping it a crime scene. When my DB died, the police did not do that. But of course, between the medical examiner looking him over and declaring what caused the death, and from what we told the police what was going on with DB right before his death, I am sure they came to the decision that it was from his illness, Maybe that is why they considered it some kind of crime scene, since there was no one to talk for him. I pray that doesn't happen to me, going all by myself.
My prayers and thoughts go out to you and your extended family, for SIL's DH.
Yes, crazy to pay that much for a skirt, when at Kohl's and Penney's there are always sales.
Dinner at DD's went good, except my goodness, why don't women that are so over weight, get a clue??? MIL is so big, but yet as we sat down to dinner, I took 1 chicken breast, and a very small portion of chessy potatoes, (which I could not recall ever having, and it came down to, me not liking it, so I didn't finish it), and a glass of water. She loaded up her plate, to the point of having things like ribs piled on top of each other, then she had to have butter for her corn on the cob. Wow!! That plate looked like a trucker's plate! Then, for her to have the gaul, when they first arrived, I asked her if she would like a glass of my NA wine, with some diet tonic water in it, and she asks me: is there sugar in it?
? I told her I did not know, so she had white wine!!! Then sits down to that huge dinner!!!
But DD and I were able to sit aways away from all of them, as DD had some questions about the play list I had given her, and we worked that out, so nobody brought up the memorial.
I was happy at my daily weigh in this morning, that I did good yesterday. Of course I walked over 10,000. steps during the day, before going over there, and ate smart here during the day.
This week will be spent cleaning. I have all the windows cleaned, and the patio doors and screen, and the big window next to the patio door, so today, if I feel like it, since I was awake more last night than asleep, is bathroom cleaning. I need to bring the step stool into each bathroom, and vacuum out the vents of the bathroom fans. Then tomorrow I will do the vacuuming and dusting. Getting it all done before it gets too hot. Now they just showed that both Saturday and Sunday are predicted to be 90. I do not like cleaning in that heat.
One little side note, about yesterday: it was so darned GREAT to be hugging my grand kids again!!!! And I went in the living room where they were watching Cobra Ki, on Netflix, and sit and talk with them, like we do when they are at my apartment. Warms Grandma's heart!!!
Have a great day everyone!
