Hello, happy Thursday from here as well. It is sunny and milder this morning. I dropped off more used batteries at the library and then made a trip to the grocery store. It was fairly busy today. Shopping for the Thanksgiving holiday already?

I also got 2 birthday cards in their envelopes and out in the mail.

I think I am over the flu shot now as well.

Wishing everyone a happy day.

Happy Friday. Yet another wet and windy storm has arrived but I did manage to walk with George before it got too bad. Only to a local field but it’s a good size and enough for both of us. On the way home I bought some tea bags because I was about to run out and this afternoon have been ordering bedding for the hens and dog food because George keeps changing his preferences! Also found some packs of charity Christmas cards so that’s a start! Nothing else of interest going on!

Take care and stay safe.

Good morning. It has warmed up to unreasonable levels. In the 70’s yesterday. That will not last but nice for now.

Sandy, how was your trip to the American Legion Hall. Any Bingo wins??

Jackie, glad you found done suitable Christmas cards. Excellent. I need to get back to working on those. 👀. Hello to George.

Barbie, the Silver Sneakers are having a dance party via Zoom this afternoon. I am looking forward to that. My favorite instructor is hosting it. I am guessing it will be mostly Latin dances.

Wishing everyone one well.

🐾🎶 Happy Saturday. 6AM meeting on Zoom followed by a long walk. I stopped to talk to a woman near the end of the walk and she asked how Annie was doing. I said she was doing great then got home to find the back of the TV remote on the floor by the table, and the rest of it at the far end of the room. Fortunately Annie didn't chew on it so it still works.

🎶 Had a good time dancing with my friend yesterday. We only had to put Annie on a leash briefly twice during the session.

🌞 I watched an episode of "Escape to the Country" set in Cornwall. Two comments I remember are "Everyone wants to live in Cornwall" and "The lanes are so narrow." I've lived most of my life not far from the coast and think Cornwall would be a great place to live.

🐾🐕 the dogs have slept most of the afternoon interrupted only briefly by sessions of barking at real and imagined people walking by.

Hello

I cannot believe it is getting dark already. Nothing particularly interesting today although I did see lots of photos from a small private engagement party that was given yesterday afternoon. The couples also having a small private destination wedding next year. Interesting.

Sandy, glad you got your outdoor decorations up. My neighbor across the street put up all of their Christmas decorations yesterday and had them lit last night. They are pretty.

Barbie, that is a good show. Love Escape to the Country. FYI, I loved the dance party yesterday. It is do nice to have Zoom connections isn’t it.

Jackie, how are you this weekend? I found a lovely Instagram account for a gent from Cornwall who plays lovely music. Swallows and Crows. I hunted for full length songs on Spotify and found a few.

Be happy everyone.

😀 Hello on Monday. My Sunday and Thursday walking friend has a scheduled medical procedure today and Annie and I will be driving her to the hospital, getting her settled and checked in, driving home, and waiting for the call to pick her up. I told her the whole day was for her.

😀 Son, John, called over the weekend and spent most of the conversation apologizing for not calling more often.

😀 When Larissa was here I gathered up some toys that Annie hadn't played with in awhile and put them aside in a cardboard box on the floor. I had been thinking that I might throw those toys away since she hadn't played with them, then yesterday afternoon I heard a lot of noise and found that she had emptied the box and was playing with the box. Later she played with one of the toys she'd dumped out of the box. Fortunately I don't mind all the clutter

.😀 Jackie, I live in a town that was discovered by retirees who settled here in droves starting about 30 years ago. Affluent people built houses on what used to be farmland and the result was more shopping and higher property taxes. I've talked to people who grew up here and they lament the quiet old days. Some people say that this is where old people go to visit their parents. There is a high concentration of assisted living, senior residences, and nursing homes. A big reason is that there is less rain here than in the surrounding parts of the Pacific Northwest.

😀 Lin, between Zoom and You Tube, I can entertain myself for hours.

😀 Sandy, glad you got your decorations up. I don't decorate for holidays but I appreciate what everyone else does.

Hi, a Monday with the usual stuff. One diversion was a phone call from a friend who had an accident that sort of clipped off a chunk of her finger. Scary, bloody and a trip to an urgent care clinic for some type of antibiotic cream and a tetanus shot. It sounded so painful.

I was going to make a trip to the grocery store but there were traffic snarl ups during rush hour.

Two of my Zoom classes were upset today. One couldn’t get the instructor connected, the other one had an instructor that could not get her sound and the music to work. Terrible class for knowing what she was trying to do.

So it was a for real Monday. 👀

I don’t do much for the Holidays. Maybe a little plant. And I send out cards of course.

Take care everyone.

Froggies!
