I made the usual breakfast (fried egg and cheese sandwich on an "everything" bagel and hot coco) for Rossy this morning but he never showed up. I went over to see what's up and he looked sick, said he was nauseous. So he's staying home from school today. I came back home and ate his breakfast for him. This is the first time I have eaten what I give ( Read more... )

Where do you get your cute clothes?
I get all my nicest things at Tractor Supply (they have some hippy looking things) and the pajama department at Walmart (flowy and relaxed).Planning to maybe eat lunch at Cracker Barrel today with Dave. For such an "old people's" type restaurant they have nice women's clothing offered in the lobby. I found the ( Read more... )

No, I don't want to do my duties.

On your mark get set go.

I want to ride my bicycle!!!

Last I wrote here was on Sunday. On Monday Candy and I biked around Lake Wilhelm. I was kind of dreading it. It is HARD to do Wilhelm (I think) so many hills to go up.

I thought this morning I would try again taking Rainy for a bike (trike) ride. Last year we only went about a mile and she started trying to dig her way out of the box.

This morning Jan and I biked to a place I have been going to a lot lately - a hidden picnic place about a mile and a half beyond Belmar on the Allegheny River. There is a really nice view of the river. Totally shady. It would be easy to miss - there is just a little opening in the trees beside the trail as you bike past and if you didn't look over ( Read more... )

Last night Candy and I biked to Oil City. 3 dump trucks passed us on the road beside the bike trail. Then when we saw the landslides I knew what they were carrying - the material that came out of the hillside during the big storm we had the other night.

I'm trying to work on that myself. I went biking with the grandboys tonight on the East Sandy Creek trail and it started to rain (finally) - it had been threatening to the whole time but we decided to go anyway. The sound of the thunder rolling over the hills and up the valleys sounded really neat. We mentioned it to each other afterwards. It wasn' ( Read more... )
