We are really blowing through October - literally here! It's going to be another rainy, rainy day. But at least the wind is finally letting up.
Yesterday was a nice lunch with a good friend. Then she had to go home and I went shopping. Got my new blouse, a new small pre-lit Christmas tree for the trailer, and a Christmas gift. When I got home we ordered beginning quilting supplies for Sammy, the 16 yr old girl that Autumn mentors. She wants to learn quilting and apparently I'm giving her a class when we get down to Texas. So she may get her Christmas gift early!
I finished that oh-so-difficult block in the morning. It actually turned out pretty good after I fixed the three sections where I'd sewn wrong color fabrics. then I started another, much easier one. I hope to finish that one today. I have chiropractor, grocery shopping, maybe a haircut, and we get our boosters about 5pm at Costco. I hope we don't have much reaction because friends, Bob an Betsy are rolling in tomorrow afternoon for 2 nights here and we're all going to supper at mutual friends on Friday. I didn't react much last time to my second Covid shot, but Bill felt like he had the flu for 1-1/2 days. Though, maybe it's a man thing . . .? . . .
TINA - every time I read about Adam, I find I'm gritting my teeth and have my fists clenched. I hope, though don't expect, that your tirade at him has some effect. I had a friend who had the same sort of husband. She put up with it for 16 years before she finally dumped his sorry a$$. We were fearful of retribution, but that kind is actually cowardly, I think. He just disappeared. She never saw him again and we learned a few years later he ended up in Utah. (sorry to contaminate Jana's lovely state, but at least he left Washington!). And for sure, that is no way to get restful sleep! The Big Collective THEY say yoga and meditation helps promote relaxation and sleep. Maybe it would help you. It makes me crazy! I hate it! But you might not . . .
JANA - you are welcome for the rain, but you were supposed to share with Tina! Glad Michael is improving. You mean he's only on 1/2 Liter of O2 except when moving around? That's great! practically nothing! What did he say about the sign the kids made him?
VELDA - you really have a load of stuff to keep you busy, off the streets, and out of the bars! lol! you may have to get a bigger wagon! Yum! Breakfast for supper. My favorite!
BECCA - I'm so sorry they cut down your redbud tree. We don't have them here. I don't know what they look like or what they mean by 'soft wood' and why or if that makes a difference. Here, we have lots of tall, mostly fir trees, but they only top the ones that are directly under the wires. Not completely cut them down. And they are working to put most of the wires underground now.
LORI - it's a celebratory week at your house! Did you have a nice dinner last night with your friends? Happy birthday to your hubby. What are you doing tonite? And yes, Scott is doing his handsome thing. He has a showring prance to his gait and really knows how to strut his stuff.
I think we'll be doing breakfast for supper tonite - or maybe a chef's salad. We'll see. I'm not cooking because I don't want leftovers. We're having pizza tomorrow with Bob an Betsy and all going to friends' on Friday. So a simple supper for tonite. Maybe even Cheerios.
Whatcha got cookin' at your house?
