Howdy all y'all. It's satisfying Saturday! It's quite pleasant out there this morning, and for a change, the humidity is not 100%. It is still supposed to get pretty sultry this afternoon, but it is nice to have a cool morning.
Not a lot on the agenda today. Leftover pizza for breakfast.

Good morning
It's cool this morning, 56 and sunny, high of 79 expected today.
Enjoy your online Dragon Con, Ed.
Jo, happy for you that you're getting some time off. I'm sure you'll find lots of fun things to do. And it's good that you're getting some time to just relax.
No special plans for labor day.
Our next door neighbors put their house up for sale this week. Lots of people have already come to see it. I had no idea they were going to move. But then, I mostly just wave or say hi, don't generally have conversations, everyone's busy.
Have a good weekend, everyone.

Howdy all y'all. It's sumptuous Sunday! It's a bit cooler this morning, and is only supposed to get to 85 this afternoon. All the same, I feel sure that Summer isn't finished with us.
Not much on the agenda today.

Good morning.
Nice and cool here this morning too, Ed. Just back from a walk around the neighborhood. Sunny with a high of 82 expected. We're going to our son's house this afternoon for a small outdoor family gathering. Distancing and masks, but still nice to see everyone. Looking forward to it.
Have a good Sunday, everyone.1 -
Hello!!
We were at 68 degrees last nite. So wonderful!! I opened the house today the humidity is gone for a few days. This doesn't happen often, so I will sure take advantage!!
Jo, Glad you have vacation!! You surely deserve it!! You are a front line worker just as important as our medical people!! I know everyone is totally tired of this virus. But it is so important to keep distancing still.I hope your days off are wonderful!! Vix, it is so nice to see family! It will be hard now that school has started. Teachers here kind of freaking at my daughters public school. So much extra on everyone! The kids start Tuesday.
Still did not feel tip top today. I watched church from home. I kept losing it though on my phone. Not a typical Sunday. Typical Southern Sunday dinner though. I am making just a little mashed potatoes, oven fried chicken or air fried, and homemade cornbread with fresh local honey. A gift from my daughter whose teacher friend has his own hives!! A nice way to spend the day. No Labor Day plans here, except not to labor!!!
Take care all!!0 -
Good morning all.
Jo!!!
Enjoy your day! Hope you're doing something special.
Our family gathering yesterday was wonderful. Beautiful weather for being outdoors.
It's supposed to be another beautiful day today. Sunny, high of 83.
I hope you feel better, Jan. Best wishes to your daughter. I hope you all stay safe and healthy.
I have a massage scheduled for this morning...everyone wears masks, and the room is cleaned in between clients. I am looking forward to it. I think it will help.
Have a good day, everyone.

Howdy all y'all. It's marvelous Monday! It's cooler again today, and another glorious day is expected! The last few labor days have been unbearably hot, at least in my memory, so it's nice to have one that is not. I may get out to a grocery store in a bit. And may do laundry today.

Hello!!
Happy Anniversary, Jo!!
Very quiet here. Guess everyone is at the beach, or lake. I expect a bit of a rise due to covid due to Labor Day. I am hoping to cut the grass and get some mail out! Now if I get to it!! I have so much to do here. If I could just make myself do it!! Glad you had a good time with family, Vix! Enjoy your massage! Looks like we are all blessed with beautiful weather!! Ed,you sound too ambitious for Labor Day!! I have 2 scrawny potatoes here. I see myself making some homemade potato salad if I do it early enough! Not Labor Day without potato salad!!!
Take care and enjoy the weather!!!!0 -
Howdy all y'all. It's terrific Tuesday! It's another cool morning and looks like it will be another wonderful day. I may get out quickly to buy those few grocery items I missed yesterday.

Good morning;
Thank you for the anniversary wishes. It has been 45 years, how time flies.
Skyped with my son and daughter-in-law on Sunday. They are doing well. Son is still working from home and DIL is starting back to school at the end of the month. She is still not sure if it will be in person. There is a meeting this week. She will be starting her 2nd year at University
studying design.
Vix-if I remember correctly your son will be married a year this month. Happy Anniversary to him and his wife.
The weather here has been wonderful for the past 3 days. Starting tomorrow the humidity will return. Sunday we went for a 5 mile hike in Blue Hills Reservation and Monday we walked 5 miles through Borderland State Park.
Today I am cleaning out cabinets and bureau drawers.
Hope everyone has a great day!1 -
happy anniversary jo1

Hi all.
Thanks, Jo. My son's anniversary was 9/1. We were celebrating on Sunday. Your walks sound wonderful. I'm so glad you got to skype with your son and DIL and that they are doing well.
Ed, beautiful weather here today too. Enjoy!
Jan, hope you got your chores done. I didn't get my massage...we both forgot it was Labor day when we made the appt, and the place was closed. I will be going on Friday instead.
Irene, hows the puppy doing....I forgot what you named her.
Went for a walk this morning around the neighborhood, and did some exercise in the basement. A few more chores to do.
Have a good day, everyone.1 -
Howdy all y'all. It's wonderful Wednesday! It's another beautiful morning here in Peachtree Corners, and it is supposed to remain nice all day. It is a bit stickier out there right now, but it's cool enough that I didn't have any problem with it.
The lawn guys have already been here and gone. Garbage may be picked up soon, or it may sit out there until tomorrow. One never knows with these Monday holidays like we had this week. Ditto for the recycling pickup that would normally happen this afternoon. Sometimes after a holiday the garbage will go on the scheduled day, with the recycling not being picked up until the following day. In any case, anything not picked up today will just sit out there waiting.
I popped out to Kroger early this morning and got eggs and cheese. We used more eggs than I had expected yesterday, and I only realized how low the deluxe sliced American was when I made my lunch. J actually cooked, making folded tamago (four eggs worth) and not bothering to try to make any rice to go with it. Then I cooked two more eggs for my egg, cheese, and Spam sandwich. That clobbered the half carton that was on top, and started the remaining carton, and then I used two more eggs, starting on the last carton, at supper, so I bought a carton this morning to fill the gap. J wanted eggs on top of the veggie burger supper. We eat a lot of eggs.
And now I get to stay home and alert, as my next crate of wine (Labor Day Weekend sale - 18 bottles @$4.99 each, plus tax, free shipping) is scheduled to be delivered today, and requires an adult signature.

Good morning.
Mostly cloudy, high of around 80 today, showers likely later.
Sounds like you've been busy already. I'm just hanging out so far. Going to the library to pick up some books after this.
Wednesday is our recycling day.
Will see what the day brings.
Have a good Wednesday, everyone.1 -
Good morning;
Sunny and starting to get a little humid.
I ran errands this morning and am now debating vacuuming my car or start weeding the flower beds...decisions decisions.
I had a nice phone visit with my sister yesterday. It was nice to catch up.
We have recycling on the 2nd and 4th Tues. of the month, with trash pick up every Tues.
Enjoy your day!1 -
Well, the wine is now IN and put away. I received:
4 Placer Andaluz Tempranillo/Syrah. An old favorite blend.
4 D. João I Tinto. Another old favorite blend.
4 Torero Mendoza Tempranillo. A relatively recent find for me, but it is decent.
2 Sishaye Chenin Blanc. This one is another relatively recent find that is pretty good.
2 Aterdecer de Los Andes Chardonnay-Chenin. I have not tasted this blend before but look forward to it.
2 Tucana Unwooded Chardonnay. Unwooded Chardonnay is my favorite type of Chardonnay and I look forward to trying this one.

Howdy all y'all. It's thrilling Thursday! It's a little warmer this morning, but the humidity isn't too terrible, as yet anyway. I have to go see the vampires at 11:00.

Good morning all.
Jo, my sister called me this week, unusual. I'm the one who usually calls. Glad you had a nice catch up.
Ed, what a fun hobby...so much wine! I guess those all go well with "watching lots of TV and worrying about the end of Democracy". Although lately I'm thinking maybe something stronger than wine.
We had t-storms last night and rain today, high expected of 80. There was a small earthquake in NJ last night...anyone feel that?
I really feel for the people out west...pandemic, heat wave, wildfires, early snow in Co! Mother earth is not happy.
Hope everyone has a good day.1 -
Good morning;
Cloudy and expecting rain and thunder storms today.
I have no plans for today, but I am sure I will find something to do.
We really need a do-over of 2020. I wonder what the winter will bring?
Wishing everyone a good day!1 -
Howdy all y'all. It's fabulous Friday! Once again it's sticky out there, and warm. But it's pretty much a typical early September day for Peachtree Corners. I need to run my van through the emission inspection today but not a lot else on the agenda that is critical.

Howdy all y'all. It's satisfying Saturday! It's a little cooler today, with a good chance of rain as the day progresses. I need to go to the tire store today for new front tires for my van.

Good morning.
Have a good trip to the tire store, Ed. Liked the funnies.
It's cloudy and cooler here today too...high of 74 expected.
No special plans for me today, chores, etc.
Have a nice Saturday, everyone.1 -
good morning, well today Sammie is 4 months old today she is doing pretty good with potty training which I am happy about also we signed her up for another training class she is really learning a lot. Yesterday i went and got the shingles boaster i have been really sick i was so cold i was shaking horrible headache and my back is killing me take care everyone i am going back to bed1

That was relatively painless. Well, not to my credit card. LOL. But I was at the tire store less than an hour, so I was happy with that. Since it was right near Kroger, I ran through there while out, and picked up a few things.
When I got home, the dishwasher cycle was finished so I put the groceries away, put the clean dishes away, and then started a cleaning cycle in the dishwasher, as I do each month around this time, to hopefully keep mineral deposits down and everything all neat and spiffy.
Lunch will be a vegetarian "not tuna" salad I made with mashed chickpeas, wrapped in CHEESE wraps instead of bread or tortilla wraps. We can have a few chips with it for carbs and crunch. J prefers I not actually call it "not tuna" and just leave tuna out of the name, so I call it chickpea (or garbanzo) sandwich spread instead.
