George did open the pool but didn't put the heater on yet need to shock it a couple of times first it is just too cold for me yet even with the heater on. Tomorrow it is suppose to be 80 we will see. WE had a nice walk and then went out for breakfast . I did loose a pound last week so I am feeling pretty good I started to drink my protein shakes again it really gives me so much energy. Jo the flower shopping sounds fun. Jo I hope you are feeling better. Hey roger a little rain is OK . Hope everyone has a great Sunday
The yard is too wet today to do anything beyond look out at it.
I am not real happy with the forecast temperatures, I may have to put batteries in the remote for the AC, Yesterday it was cooler that the forecast for today and the living room high temperature was a bit warm at 77 degrees
I have some Protein shakes I need to use up, I just need to decide where to use them.
A little rain, yes not torrential downpours however.
Congratulations on that pound You lost.
Hmm... Either You went out earlier than I or Your rain lasted longer than mine. I stuck a hand out the door at 4:15 and no rain so I got ready and went. The Puddle at the foot of the driveway was fairly large which tells me the rain had just stopped, now it is completely goneIreneMurman wrote: »good morning, well it rained on our walk this morning but it stopped now.

Hi VixGood morning.
Nice out so far today. It's cloudy and 65 with a high of 70 expected. Went out on the deck and saw a little chipmunk in the yard. Cute.
No special plans for today, need to buy some cards.
Wishing you all a good Sunday.
Sunday we had high temps around 70 degrees, Today the Upper 70s or worse.
Chipmunks are cute, however I have heard that they can be destructive digging away under paving stones for example. I have not seen one recently, I wonder if something happened to them around here.
Cards, Thanks for the reminder I need to check and see if I have enough Easter cards or if I need to buy some.
Have a Nice Day

Hello JoanneJoanne3366 wrote: »Good evening;
Irene-thanks for the heads up on the Costco cards.
I hit a curb yesterday and blew out my right front tire. I called AAA and they came and changed it in record time. I am going to get a new tire tomorrow.
Vix-How fun shopping for flowers.
Roger-I am not ready to do yard work yet either.
Have a good evening.
Do plan to go to CostCo or a tire store for the tire. So far, knock wood, I have not blown out a tire that way, when I was driving for a living I could not avoid something that had fallen on the road and took out a front tire, Eventually Penske leasing came and replaced it. I was lucky that it happened right by a service area on the NJ turnpike, The Vince Lombardi Service plaza so I could get to a phone and foods etc. while waiting.
Hopefully Your tire is not one of those expensive ones that seem to be popular for some reason.
Good Luck

Good morning.
Looks like it rained a little overnight. Mostly cloudy and high in the upper 70s expected today and tomorrow then going back to normal 60s.
I'm selling one of my paintings this morning, and I have an acupuncture appt this afternoon.
Sorry about your tire, Jo, but at least you got good service.
Good luck with your pt, Irene.
Roger, I've only seen the one chipmunk, and he's definitely scared by the dogs next door.
Have a good day, everyone. 0 -
Good morning;
It is gloomy and raining here at present.
Roger-I went to Sullivan Tire. It is about 1/2 mile from my house. They had to order me a tire and it will be in tomorrow at 10. I will not be able to get it until after work. They are matching the existing tires.
Vix-It is nice that you are selling one of your paintings. Good luck with the acupuncture.
Irene-Is the PT helping your shoulder?
Happy Monday.

Hi
I'm back home from walking and not a single solitary cent was found. The Temperature out the door was 47 degrees and rain is in the forecast and the forecast high is 55.
I have a coupon for $1.99 a pound butter and a different grocery store has Grand Opening plastered on the front page of their circular even though we checked them out a couple of weeks ago. Sale items with a $15 purchase are 18 large eggs for $0.98, Kraft Mayo for $0.98, a 24 pack of 1 liter bottled water for $1.98 and a 30 ounce Maxwell House Coffee for $3.98, a free pizza with the purchase of another one, Pass on that. Bounty or Charmin 12 pack Essential Paper Towels. Sounds cheaper than the usual CostCo price, I need to check them out, the word essential makes me wonder.

It had rained here too, and our temperatures appear to mirror yours for Monday and slightly lower Tuesday.
Chipmunks are pretty much scared by anything. Around here I see lots of rabbits, they are so accustomed to people that until you get closer than around 6 foot from them they just sit there and watch
Congratulations on selling a painting

I hope Your weather got better later.
Matching the existing tires are the way to go and if that is not possible then replacing them in pairs is OK too as I understand it. Hopefully the tire arrives OK, does this mean You are driving on the spare ? FWIW I kept the best looking tire as a full size spare when I replaced all four on the car.
That is a good question about the PT, I suspect it is even if it is not a permanent fix.
Have a Nice Day

Good News, losing pain is always good and if non surgery works even better.
3AM, Even I do not make it up and out the door at that time, I was running early today when I went out the door at 4AM
Good Luck with getting a good price. Free Estimate ?
You and Vix both seem to keep busy, My main thing pushing me out the door today is now that SSI has arrived in the bank account is going there to cash a check so that I have more than $10 on handIreneMurman wrote: »good morning, on our walk this morning I found a penny .

Hello Joanne0 -
Good morning.
A friend passed away and we will go to the funeral home tonight. Our daughters are best friends. I am planning to stay with the baby tomorrow while my daughter and son-in-law attend the funeral.
Not sure yet what I'm doing the rest of the day. May go to the Sr. Ctr. and rearrange some paintings, and later spend some time with my daughter and grandson.
Roger, I work on keeping busy....I know if I don't, I'm pretty much a couch potato, which is very unhealthy.
Have a good day, everyone.0 -

I'm sorry to hear about Your friend, I hate death and do not deal with it well
That is nice of You to take care of the baby so they can attend the funeral.
I find no problem with Vege'ing out. As it is I spend a lot of time sitting, Time here for example and then time watching TV news and some TV shows, humor, cooking or Things like NCIS. And yes I know that too much sitting is bad for the legs for example.
Have a Good Day

Today was a bit chilly with the temperature and a light breeze when I set out. I was out from 4:30 to 6:20, Not all of that was walking since my nose was running. Due to that I end up finding a bench or something to sit on so I can pull out the Kleenex. Doing that while walking is a non starter, I need someplace to sit and put down the Coffee Cup and walking stick and Gloves.
My brother has had that problem with his F150, A lot of the time it turns out that the person filling the tank left the gas cap loose, There is no self serve here in NJ, You have to have the gas station attendant pump You gas. I hope You come to a resolution for that problem, In the old days that never happened, Now it is tied to capturing and fuel vapors in the tank and feeding them to the engine rather that out into the air.
Good Luck with the pricing for the trees
Roger
Hello Joanne0 -
Good morning;
Vix-Sorry for the loss of your friend.
Irene-Glad the PT is helping and good luck with your car. I hope you get a good price on taking the trees down.
Roger-I find myself sitting a lot when I am home. I am better off getting out of the house.
My tire is all fixed. I didn't do too much driving, because I only had what my husband calls the donut tire on my car. It is advised not to drive over 50 mph on that tire.
I found a quarter this morning. Does it count if I found it under my husband's dresser when I was mopping the floor.
Have a good day!
