It is a beautiful Friday morning. It's about 68° sunny and some clouds were supposed to be cloudy all day. I don't have much planned for today except housekeeping trying to pick up some stuff relaxing.

Yesterday I made it to Peabody Museum. LG could not make it after all, so it took an hour and a half to get through it. The exhibits were great ( Read more... )

Earlier this week I learned that two of my association neighbors passed away recently.  I discovered that Chuck who lived in #4 passed away on Friday.  He had been battling cancer for a while now.  I saw him maybe two weeks ago.  He was a nice man.  We had nice conversations.

The other neighbor whom I didn’t see much but had a beautiful collie ( Read more... )

I did as I thought I would. I got the dusting done and vacuumed the office first. I had to that’s where the vacuum was. I finished the room and took it and left it right in the middle of the floor.

I decided to talk to Dave and we talked for nearly an hour. We talked about everything including his brother in laws funeral yesterday. I asked him if ( Read more... )

Everything was fine up to then.  First thing, as I was going grocery shopping I went to get my new sunglasses (the ones I bought on Amazon?) and one of the lenses falls out.  My first reaction was (insert whatever you want here).  Luckily it went back in and hasn’t fallen out since but it makes me so mad when things like this happen.  I guess I get ( Read more... )

I was hoping or planning on going for a walk this morning but I don’t usually like walking in the rain. So if there is a break in the rain I will go. I know I am a wuss. I sometimes think because I am getting older I don’t want to fall. I remember I did a walk with my Friend Joan and I stepped in mud and slid and fell. I didn’t hurt anything but my ( Read more... )

Technically the storm hasn’t started yet but we got alerts that would break your ear drums yesterday about the storm surge, wind and flooding on the phone. At one point it looked like it was going to open up and pour buckets at work. It didn’t though. The sun was out for the rest of the day.

I stopped at Walmart and got some groceries. I got bread ( Read more... )

It has been thirty two years since my father died from a multitude of ailments. Kidney disease (renal failure), Lupus related ailments, High blood pressure. He was a man who I always loved despite his shortcoming. His temper is something I may have inherited. Our family has always been dysfunctional and we have all had addictions (mostly alcohol or ( Read more... )

I was watching the Smithsonian marathon of Mighty Trains last night. It was very interesting but my headache was making it difficult to enjoy it. It never went away and I still have it this morning.

I didn’t do anything for it until about five minutes before going to bed.  I am hoping the Tylenol will kick in soon. All I had this afternoon was the ( Read more... )

Today is my niece in law Jennifer’s birthday. I am not sure what age she is but she is a wonderful person who is a loving, caring and inclusive of her step children. That would be Chris’s older children from a previous marriage. They are expecting their second child as of three days ago. I would imagine since I haven‘t gotten a text or phone call ( Read more... )

Today is Liz and Nel’s Wedding Anniversary. As you know I have a habit of forgetting time. I was in the wedding so you would think I would remember right? Not a chance. I believe it is now 15 years but I am not sure. I just sent her an anniversary e-card. I talked with her yesterday and she will either be coming in the next couple of days to drop ( Read more... )
