    HAPPY SUNDAY!

    Thanks for all the well wishes for Billie. She is doing super (especially with her meds). I finally got my flowers planted and am enjoying the hard work of other gardeners. This is one of our meditation gardens where I am showing off the irises. They are really looking good this year.

    Good Evening Everyone!

    I don't like the worms either but when I have my gloves on it doesn't bother me. Plus the only time I have to worry about worms is in my flower garden in the front.

    Today was another hot and sunny day. Got my walk done early and did some searching and strength. Son left after lunch to go home. Visited a couple of friends and watched Bones. Started the BBQ for the first time and cooked steak and stuffed mushrooms. Now it's raining which makes me happy because I don't have to water them all.

    Good Evening Everyone!

    Today started out slow. When I got up it was raining so decided to lay in bed and read for about an hour. By then it had stopped raining and the sun came out. Had breakfast, did some exercise, and ran errands. Had lunch out. Wasn't the healthiest but am full and will have something small and healthy for dinner. After lunch we went to the liquor store and I carried a 24 of Smirnoff ice all the way home. Took lots of breaks as it got heavy. Great workout for arms and core. Now just resting as I am still feeling the burn. Tomorrow is Tops, rest and weigh day. Looking forward to stepping on the scale tomorrow. Hoping all the yard work and walks show. But if not that's ok too. Oh almost forgot. Have to go for jurry selection on June 7th. First time ever doing this and unfortunately it is on a Tuesday so I will be missing a Tops meeting that day.

    @Patti241 today we've been cool in the 50's, while inland they got into the 70s. We were in and out of fog, I am SO HAPPY since my AC hasn't been put in yet. IT SHOULD BE SOON!!! We aren't allowed to install them ourselves, some have fallen out in other high rises (Once MINE FELL OUT but, LOL It was only noticed by my downstairs who doubted her sanity, I just smiled to her, but, BOY WAS I LAUGHING!! Under that window (different unit) was only grass that no one ever around on. But, other high rises in the city it's been an issue. So now yeah. Hope the storms weren't bad? We have a very high tide tonight, I'll be awake its so cool as long as no damage is had.
    @Bookienj,,,, Glad she's fun!!! Hope today was very good. Ohhh laundry and dishes just never get done. Never get done. LOL
    @Cseguin2 ,,, Nice workout, oh I am sure you felt that burn!! You're working so hard, sure do hope when you step on the scale it'll sing your praises!! I've not been called for Jury Duty yet, I do not think I want to be,, well if it's not gruesome,,, maybe it'd be interesting. But anything with blood is a NO GO!!

    @Patti241 ,,, Ohhh I like those days!!! Today the wind was so strong which kept the heat from feeling hot at 71. NICE!!
    @Bookienj,,, did you go the band concert? I MISS those things, but WOOHOO my GGS will be starting pre k, so in time, maybe I'll be attending those again!! LOL Depends on what the little monkey does as time goes by! I'd LOVE to see him doing track!! GOLLY he sure can run!! AND it'd burn some of that energy! If they can get him to focus. Hope the paper comes out well. Anything this summer you are looking forward to?
    @Cseguin2 ,, ,WOOHOO Hey

    It was a low keyed day, I did do 2 errands, one was very short the other grocery shopping, but didn't get nearly as much as I should of. Still it's enough for 2 or 3 days for water and a few more things. Overall though it's all good. I did buy an outstanding roast!! Now to cook it, but it's so simple it'll be super easy. AND YUMMY!!

    Good Evening Everyone!

    Yesterday was busy. TOPS in the morning, lunch out, went to a friend's in the afternoon to celebrate Hubby's birthday. Had chinese delivered for his birthday dinner, and then went to a meeting and didn't get home till 10pm.

    Today I got a walk in before it started raining. Feeling sluggish today. I think from an early morning and a late night yesterday. Made a deal with myself that I would do what I call my minimum amount of exercise. While do that my Son called good thing too as I completely forgot about his appointment. Of course I get down there and he hasn't even left his house yet🙄. Ended up eatting lunch out. Not the best way to start after a loss. But it is what it is. I don't have any intention of gaining it back. This afternoon played cards with Hubby and am having a light dinner.

    Good Evening Everyone!

    Today was a great day! Took Hubby shopping for some shorts. Lot's of walking at a slower pace. But was still pretty good. Got lunch at Subway. Most planned workouts done and also did my morning walk at the river. Seen the biggest family of Canadian geese yet this year. They had 13 babies! I also made ruhbarb crisp and played cards with Hubby.

    @Patti241 ,,, HI Patti!! How did the day go?
    @Bookienj,,, Oh yes!!! My GD for a tiny bit played the clarinet, I had too. I did it through Jr High, but the director was something else,,, we did not see eye to eye. But, I played well into my 40's for the fun of it, and my pure enjoyment. When one plays an instrument you learn so much more about self discipline, and yes the joy that you can do something that makes others relax. It'll help her all the way through life.
    @Cseguin2,,,, COOL on getting H some shorts, Subby way (LOVE SUBBY WAY!). Awww I get to see the Canadian geese all the time and the ducks in the harbor. One Momma duck has 11 babies!! Awww isn't it so cute? I think so!!

    An easy day today. I enjoyed it. My place looks amazing thanks to my friend who's now helping with cleaning.

    I've discovered a fun way to read more blogs. I click on "blogs" in the MFP tool bar and read the ones that have "5%" in the title. Great idea to encourage us to put that in our blog titles! ....something for me to do when I can't fall back to sleep right away.... G'night and/or G'morning everyone.

    Good Evening Everyone!

    Today is a hot one! Went for my walk early, did my workouts and walked to the grocery store. Had to bring a cab home as I bought another 4 bags of soil. Got lots of fruit and plan to get that made up in the next couple of days. Almost caught up with my dishes and got some laundry done as well. Hubby wanted to play cards so we did.

    One of my favorite places to sit--even if I need to share it with ticks. Too bad we are not into chickens; those fellows know how to get rid of ticks.

    @Thurslins ,,, GOOD IDEA!! I'm glad so many are putting "5%" in theirs, it'll help us with exposure. Glad you are enjoying them!! I am pretty sure I've read one of yours? Maybe more.
    @Patti241,, Oh Patti, SURE HOPE You are up and OUT EARLY tomorrow and Sunday if it's going to be hot there, and I am pretty sure it is!! Up here (Maine in case anyone's not sue) and ONLY RIGHT along the ocean, LOL it'll not be so bad (OR SO THEY SAY, but they said that weekend we'd be 74 and we hit 88!) tomorrow 71 and Sunday 68, we'll SEE!! I WILL put in my portable AC if needed we are still a few WEEKS AWAY from our AC's being installed, all I can think is "WHY!!??"
    @Bookienj,, OH COOL!! I wanted to play the FLUTE SO BADLY, but my Mom said my fingers weren't "long enough." Truth is SHE LOVED the clarinet and her Mom made her learn the piano. Now one would of TUNK she of said "Okay, since you really want to." LOL MOMMMMS back at that time! But, ahhhh she was GREAT in so many ways. I'd never of traded her in!
    @Cseguin2 ,, would you like to "Practice" doing dishes tonight? I can't stand them dirty. I did some cooking today so it's quite the clean up out there, but I'll get up in a few and do most of them, than finish them by 10:30 and TA DA I'll sparkle it UP well!! WOOHOO!!! it sure was FUN!! I did a pork roast (a rub with garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper and fresh rosemary. Than I stabbed the meat several times, putting in each stab 1/4 of a clove of garlic ,,, and a few leaves of rosemary. OH MY GOODNESS!! SO GOOD!! SO VERY GOOD!! Oh YO! LOL!! Glad you'll get out early cause so many places TO HOT TO SOON this year. SIGH global warming was laughed at in the 80s when I first heard of it, not now! ENJOY the fruit,, are you doing a fruit salad? Oh I'd LOVE to carve it like they do at Incredible Elidables! NO DOUBT if I can go onto youtube and see how.
    @Novembergail,, OH SO PRETTY!! If I had a yard I'd WANT CHICKENS for that reason or something else that takes care of them.

    Foot is far from happy tonight, maybe tomorrow it'll be.
