Yesterday was a lovely 57* here with sunshine! I made good use of it, too! Scottie and I went for our morning walk - about 1-1/2 mi yesterday - and then we dove right into cleaning garage, wood bin, garage fridge, raking storm blowdown from last weekend, and some sword ferns. I was bushed! Took a 1/2 soak in Epson salts and then met our 2 DGSs for dinner. What a nice evening we had with them! It was a busy day and my Fitbit registered 18,000+ steps! (that's 6 miles for me) Yay, me! Today will be chiro, few errands, some sewing, washing sheets & towels, uglies, maybe a bit more yard work(and maybe not!
), and Mexican Happy Hour with 2 other couples. I've been working on my ding dang Christmas Orphan Quilt. It's coming along but these other chores have really gotten in my way.
IRISH - welcome home!! You were missed, girlfriend! Glad you got some relaxing S&S (Sand & Sunshine) before your big move. And isn't this exciting! A new home to make all your own! And you're already moving in! I expect you'll be eating a lot of canned soup in the next few weeks. But don't forget the blessings of delivery pizza! lol! Plus, more baby eagles! We watched Alaska PD the other night and the officers had to catch an injured eagle by the roadside. A first for those officers! Of course, I thought of you!
BECCA - that's a lot of eye surgery! So grateful you still have great eyes because of all you love to do! Sending love, hugs, and prayers with little Hadlee today for her dr appt!
CHICKIE - Love the visual of your walking get-up in cold wind! Do you have "overpants" is all I can think to call them - but made from windbreaker material? I have a windbreaker I keep in the trailer and it REALLY cuts the cold. Your road trip to Edna was a lot of fun, I know! I can picture the drive, and the run through town to the shop. I need to get back there again one of these years. Bill says he can cook and helps me in the kitchen sometimes. But I've never known him to actually plan and cook a meal though he says in his past life he did all the cooking. But after sampling a few of his offerings, I have reserved the title of Head Cook for Life for myself!
JANA - I hope Stu can get the transfer he wants. Does he live far from you? Hope your cabinet comes soon. I love the idea of displaying your Featherweight on top of it!
TINA - that's great that your dad can cook if he needs to. At least you know he won't starve if you can't get to him with supper! 21*! Brrrr! But in about 5 months you'll be thinking fondly of that low temp!
Well, no cooking again tonite for me! Yippee Skippee! Meeting friends at the Mexican restaurant and I will probably have a chopped Mexican salad while Bill usually has the steak tacos. We eat in the bar so we can get Happy Hour prices. We have a favorite round pub-height booth we always sit at but it's getting harder and harder to climb up into it!
But it's the only one big enough to hold all of us. This is why we go so early - 3:30 - hoping to get that booth.What's the news on YOUR supper tonite?
