    Good morning.
    Thanks, Irene. Good luck with your fixes and potential buyers.
    Roger, I don't usually buy knick-knacks. I don't want to crowd my house, and I seem to be making more knick-knacks than I can give away! But I look to see interesting ideas. I saw some really cute pottery pieces to roll out yarn, to hold knitting needles, and simple decorative pieces with sheep themes, lots of knitted/crocheted things and lots of beautiful yarns of different types.
    Hi Jo.
    I don't think it rained here yesterday either, but it was threatening all day.
    Today is beautiful and sunny. I have a massage appt this a.m.
    Happy Monday, everyone. :)

    And yet more humor, I liked the Eclipse one :smiley:

    Hi
    I'm back from walking and 2 cents. The temperature this morning was 54 degrees and the walking was nice too. I wore a light long sleeve shirt and the safety vest and they were enough.

    Yesterday we adjusted the cut on the lawn mower, then I cut the lawn. I also did laundry afterwards, mainly the winter weight clothes so I could store them away until fall.

    According to my email, Roger , the non-frozen portion of your Diabetes Uniquely Yours Plan: Men, Custom Menu order has shipped. Tracking shows.
    From Sparks, NV US
    Ship date: Mon 5/07/2018, Scheduled delivery: Tue 5/08/2018 by end of day.
    That is not a bad travel time from Nevada to NJ and my Door.

    Hi Vix
    When I headed out the Door the Moon was coming and going behind clouds, Now the sky is clear and I see no clouds, It is supposed to be in the 70s despite the Temperature being the same at 54 degrees when I arrived home as when I left.

    I can understand not wanting to clutter up the house. The items left from our decluttering are all things that were gifts from family or things that they made such as quilts or pottery.

    I suspect that You enjoyed Your Massage Monday and will be enjoying the classes today

    Have a Nice Day

    Hi Irene
    My Brother Limed things earlier this year. I suspect the latest purchase of lime is a just in case the PH tester he has shows things need more.

    If I said I can not be bothered to seed the back yard, I regard Grass as more of a Green Strandy Weed that need too much maintenance :wink:

    Congratulations on being done in Trenton, Good Luck and here's hoping for a quick sale

    Hi
    I'm back from walking no cents. The temperature this morning was 51 degrees and the walking was nice too with no wind. I wore a light long sleeve shirt and the safety vest and they were enough.

    As I walked I could smell some of the flowering plants, I also noticed some of the Iris are now blooming, Ours are showing color but not flowering yet.

    The Non Frozen portion was delivered Tuesday a little before 11AM, Hopefully the Frozen arrives just as early, then I can try some of the new foods in it today :)
    Tracking shows that my Frozen will arrive today.

    Good Morning, well yesterday on our 2 nd walk Annie was attack by 2 pitt bulls they almost killed her . I ran her over to the vet and they stitched up her neck, legs and back end she is really sore I think I was in shock the only thing that saved her was guys stopped and pulled the dogs off of her. The owners are neighbors and they offered to pay the bills and has built a run in there back yard so this won't happen again the only problem is some of the tears were pretty deep say a pray they didn't do damage to her muscles I take her back on Friday for a check up. well so today I will just take it easy

    Humor Again

    Hi
    I'm back from walking no cents. The temperature this morning was 54 degrees and the walking was OK until the light wind arrived. There is rain in the forecast for later on today. Today's Plans are Bank then CostCo.

    FWIW FedEx dropped off the frozen at 7:08 PM :( I was checking it in and storing it away until 8PM.

    I had the new NS Cinnamon Coffee Cake @ 170 Calories before heading out the door, I put it in the refrigerator and gave it enough time in the MW to warm it instead of MW'ing it from frozen as indicated on the package or eating it at room temperature which was the alternative given. It was tasty too.

    Today's CostCo visit is for three types of paper goods, TP, Kleenex and paper towels. One opened sleeve of TP left, One roll of paper towels and 6 Kleenex so a case of all three is indicated. Then I will look at the Fruit and see if anything looks good and pick up frozen vegetables.

    FWIW the Frozen Vegetable selection at Whole Foods was not as good as at the ShopRite and pricier, OTOH 16 ounce bags at WF vs 12 ounce bags at the grocery store :smiley:

    I am thinking of hitting WF in the next few days for more Bacon to make BLTs with as their bacon was tasty.

    Hi Irene
    I am very sorry to hear that happened. I have been thinking I should get some pepper spray or mace to carry while walking just in case. I hope there is no permanent physical damage, the mental anguish bot of You must be feeling is something I hope I never have to handle again.

    Pit Bull attacks appear on a regular basis on the TV news out of New York City. They are a breed I would not to own due to the liability if they attack someone or a pet.

    Good Luck

    OMG! Irene, that is so awful....poor Annie. I hope she can recover fully. Those pit bulls should not be allowed out in public at all. It must have been so scary for both of you.
    Roger, gray and cloudy here too. I'm just back from painting class. Hung the paintings that were back from the fair. And started a drawing for my next painting.
    Hi Jo....hope all is well.

    Vix-congratulations on your painting.
    Hi Roger-thanks for the humor. I enjoy them.

I won't be walking Annie by myself any more this way when we walk George will be with me . Jo I hope your husband is doing good, Jo I have no idea what the laws are .

    Hi
    I'm back from walking no cents. The temperature this morning was 63 degrees and the walking was good.
    Today is looking nice outside and the Iris that I thought would possibly open today ended up opening in the
    afternoon Thursday. Rain is showing in the weather forecast for Saturday and Sunday :(

    I had the new NS Butterscotch Cake @ 140 Calories before heading out the door, I put it in the refrigerator overnight and gave it enough time in the MW to warm it up. It was tasty not quite as good as the Cinnamon Coffee Cake, OTOH better than the NS Carrot Cake.

    I did go to the bank and CostCo yesterday and spent $94.43 on the paper goods, vegetables, Apples etc.

    This may sound like a weird idea ? Have You thought about using a Fiberglass or wood cane while walking. Having one that has some weight could let You use it as a club just in case.

    Hopefully You hear good news at the Vets.

    FWIW I heard this one on the 11AM news yesterday
    This is the best day — and time — to list your home for sale

    Listing your home on a certain day — and even a certain time of day — may make it sell faster and for more money.
    Thursday is the most popular day for agents to debut new listings, and homes listed on that day apparently sell fastest, according to Redfin, a real estate brokerage.
    For the specific time of day, one broker puts her new listings online at 5 p.m.

    Hi Vix
    My brother refers to Pit Bulls as defective dogs. There have been news reports on the TV where they attack their owners or the owners children despite having been pets in the home for years. I know I would not want the liability owning one.

    It looks like I have one nice day and then tow days or rainy weather. Yesterday was gloomy outside and the forecast thunderstorms never happened near me. I saw a few stray drops on the window and that was all the rain we got and after dark we could see lightning flashes in the distance and faint thunder.

    Good Luck with the next painting

    Hi
    I'm back from walking no cents. The temperature this morning was 55 degrees and the walking was good considering the light rain falling. Our Friday was a really nice day, not to hot, not to cold and dry :smile:

    This mornings rain is forecast to end in a while then a break before what is predicted to be heavy rain lots of wind, lightning and a possibility of rotating winds :(

    Today I need to resist the temptation to go get some PAD SEE EW, Stir fried broad rice noodles in sweet soy sauce with Chinese broccoli and eggs
    or Pad Thai, Stir fried rice noodles with eggs, bean sprouts, tofu and scallions.

    I had the new NS Lemon Zest Cake @ 140 Calories before heading out the door, I put it in the refrigerator overnight and gave it enough time in the MW to warm it up. It was tasty I think I prefer the Cinnamon Coffee Cake. I consider all three of the new snack cakes to be a good addition to the NS snacks.

    Hi Vix
    Friday was a great day for weather, now we go into the dumps for Today and Sunday :(

    And here I thought Sunday was mothers day :wink: It sounds like a good idea, especially if You were planning to go out for mothers day. Avoid the crowd and noise.

    Wowsers, You have a busy day ahead from what I can see with three different things being celebrated.

    Irene, glad Annie is doing well...here's hoping for a speedy recovery. Thanks for the M-Day wishes. You too. It's a shame you no longer feel safe. I bought pepper spray years ago when I was working and had to work late....our parking lot was not safe in the dark, and I had a person working for me who was scary.
    Roger, we had nice weather yesterday and today, except it is expected to go up to 85 today. I've been enjoying morning coffee on the patio. T-storms tonight and tomorrow.
    Hi Jo.

    More Humor now

    Hi
    I'm back from walking 2 cents found a block apart. The temperature this morning was 53 degrees and the walking was good. Around 4 blocks from the house a light rain began falling, it never got heavy enough to make me pull out the disposable rain poncho :wink:

    Happy Mother's Day!
    Irene-I am glad Annie is doing better.
    Roger-Thanks for the info on the new NS desserts.
    Vix-Family time is always fun!
    Hubby and daughter are taking me out to brunch today.
    Hubby is doing fine. He has only been taking Tylenol for minor discomfort. The Dr. did give him a prescription for pain meds, but he didn't need them.
    It rained yesterday and is cloudy today. The rest of the week looks good weather wise.
    Enjoy your day! :)
