Back Home

Giphy – OhMagif.com

Kay and Bud were at Lunch Bunch, so we had a nice chat with them while stuffing our faces. They seemed to be doing well, but Kay was stung by a wasp and the back of her hand was bright red and itchy, she said. Otherwise, we compared how money was leaving in all directions as we try to keep things up and running. It was good to see their faces, have a few laughs and catch up.

We stopped for groceries after that and now we’re home for the day.

On the way home, I laughed out loud at a sign I’ve been watching as we drive past each day. This is one we don’t see on our regular route to town. (We’ve gotten interested to see things past our usual turn-off since they are still working on the bridge between us and town.)

This sign is a marquee on the road in front of a combination gas station and 24-7 type store with a small deli. Three days ago, the sign said, “Cheif Salad.” Yesterday it said, “Chief Salad.” Today it finally said, “Chef Salad” I hope they sell a bunch of it. :0)

It’s still only 82 degrees F, but it’s quite muggy. It’s still quite overcast, so I’ll try to get out and do some weed whacking this afternoon.

Have a great Friday.

FUN Celebration

GIFDB.com

The whole gang was there – the birthday girl, Linda; Patty; Bud; Kay; my husband; and me; PLUS our favorite waitress, Mikey; PLUS the owner of the Pizza Barn, David.

Linda liked her presents, we all ate well, and then enjoyed sharing some chocolate cake Kay had made. Linda felt special (as she is EVERY day) but maybe more demonstratively today.

She will continue her birthday celebration at her retirement place, plus with the rest of her family, who is gathering for a big celebration in July, so she will have quite the marathon. :0)

Bud and I compared notes on the gremlins that had infested both of our houses this year. I think it was a draw if we were having a contest. We commiserated, and agreed to help each other try to get rid of them.

After Lunch Bunch, we went to replenish our grocery supplies and then filled 4 gas cans we were carrying in the back of the truck to use with the mower. Since we had rain recently and then relentless sun, my husband was understandably grousing that he’ll have to mow again. I need to get out with him to try to catch up with the weed whacking.

I hope that your weather isn’t frying you like an egg or blowing you to smithereens. Hopefully, we can all simply relax and enjoy a nice weekend.

In For the Day Now

Sylvester and Tweetie Pie

We changed our mailbox decoration and got our mail as we left the house to go to Lunch Bunch. This decoration makes me smile. I had forgotten how hard we worked to get Sylvester’s whiskers and Tweetie Pie’s hair welded on. Everyone seemed pleased with the bags of lettuce from our garden. We had a nice time catching up.

Afterwards, we stopped at the grocery. We just finished putting everything away.

I think the weather people were optimistic when they said the high would be 71 today. It’s almost 1pm and it’s still only 58 and overcast. It’ll have to hurry if it makes it. So I’ll wait until tomorrow, when it hopefully warms up some, before I spend more time in the yard.

I’m going to enjoy a cup of coffee and rest a little and then I’ll go put together the sausage, egg and cheese bake for our dinner tonight.
