    I am currently in our RV on our daughter’s property. DH is in a care facility and working on improving his health. We have an apartment that I like. I hope we can be there together soon. Keeping my fingers crossed.

    Beth ~ So glad to hear that your mom has been moved closer to you! I can well understand that it has been a long, complicated experience for you and your husband! Happy apple picking and pie making.

    Oh my gosh, Beth! You have been through every kind of loop. <3 Sending best wishes.

    PS Can I have some of your apples?

    Pleased with myself for waking up from a nap and starting the dreaded tax return process. Aaaarrrrgggghhhh! I am a procrastinator par excellence, but, in the end, the putting it off becomes more agonising than actually doing it.
    Of course, when I do get around to it, it's simple and easy. :o:| So, I've done the worst bit, calculating my Amazon earnings. Our tax year runs from April to March, which is different to the US one, so I have to take it month by month. Fortunately, they have good records.

    Love you loads, Heather UK xxxxxxxx

    OMGosh, Rebecca! I had no idea you hadn't heard from your son! I'm so sorry. That is heartbreaking to say the least. But what a wonderful surprise for you.

    Barbie, your backyard is lovely!

    Another beautiful day in the neighborhood. Sunny and blue and warm and leaves and all that goes with it here in fall in MN.

    Love and Blessings, Carla, in MN

    Had my biennial bath this morning. :p I will probably have another one before the cruise. Lots of Olatum bath oil and loads of scrubbing with a loofah mitt. Feels lovely now. Manicure. Half a pedicure, but I'm waiting until near the time for varnishing toenails. No one will see them, but it's a bit of fun. Last cruise, I wasn't able to swim, because of the weather and the swell, (although I did try to go one day when it was closed), but the Med may be flatter. The pool is heated. Hoping I can get a chance. Swimming was a great pleasure on the previous ships, part of my holiday. I'm a good swimmer, proper hat, goggles, lengths. I used to go at 7 am and do 45 mins.

    Lovely day here.

    Funny enough, I am on a boat in the ocean quite often. Where I live, it's usually rather bumpy. But, being on a huge catamaran on the Mediterranean was the bumpiest ride I've ever had. I hope you have a smoother experience.

    Beth - so good to see you, so glad you could get your mama where you can see her any time. I know it was not without pain inside and out for all of you. I keep hearing at the back of mind, "comfort me with apples," had to look up the reference. So glad you're home.

    Rebecca - you're such an amazing mama...

    Lisa: My stick answer is “Well, I woke up this morning, so it’s all good! What about yourself?” 😝
    Heather: 😍 the turquoise too.
    Katla49: I hope your hubby rejoins you soon, dear girl. It must be frustrating to keep having it put off, but I’m sure it’s in his best interests health wise. (((Hugs)))

    Beth: (((Hugs))) What a palaver it is getting our seniors relocated.

    Felt a bit fragile this morning and was having minor problems with my waterworks. I’ve been eating light and drinking cranberry and bicarbonate, which has thankfully, settle the problem down. Should be right as rain by tomorrow morning.

    Did the Firm Cardio Sculpt DVD then Jackie Xtreme Toning DVD then went for a walk around the block.

    Sad day in NC.
    We closed the pool. Tlhis is the earliest we have ever closd it. But after two weeks of temps in the 70’s, the pool probably won’t warm up enough to use it. I’m just so tired from bringing in all the ceramics that I won’t go for a walk around the block tonight. I already have more than 15,000 steps

    Bowling tomorrow afternoon and then ceramics at night.

    Barbie – someone on here suggested Wet & Forget. I use it on my vinyl fence and it’s wonderful!. It keeps the mold and mildew at bay because it works with the rain. It can last quite a long time.

    Beth – I’m so glad your mom is near you!

    So very tired. I think I’ll lie on the couch, watch TV, probably fall asleep. Work tomorrow.

    Barbie – you can look up Wet and Forget on Amazon. It is safe for plants, too.

    Sue WA – I know what you mean about never guessing someone’s age. There are people on our senior bowling league that when they tell me their age, I’m shocked. We had one lady who was in WWII, she would drive herself to the bowling alley twice a week. Yes, she moved slowly. When I’m her age I’ll be happy to be vertical!

    What did I tell you? I fell asleep on the couch watching TV. Took a shower and now ready for bed.
