Good morning, everyone! But more importantly -
Happy Birthday, Rita! 39 again???? LOL
Glad I got that in before I forgot!!
Kathie - Good luck with that new doctor you have an appointment with today. Be sure and check back here and tell us how you made out.
Lee - You're as bad as Bert when it comes to being told to take it slow and not rush anything to possibly do more damage. Give yourself time to heal. Stop trying to be a macho man! Nice that your friends dropped by with birthday cake for Lu-Ann. Was she surprised?
Dave - Good for you guys getting all those plants in yesterday. Got any aches and pains from that job?
You're right about Gypsy being a very strong dog. Jimmy shot a video of her this morning fetching her ball in the yard. So far she seems to be ok and that's a good thing. She is just the sweetest lab I've ever seen. A far cry from the one Laurie bought be one Christmas that never settled down. I finally had to give her away which really upset me. I was afraid she'd dislocate my shoulder taking her for a walk. She was that strong.
Karen - Our AC is all set to handle the heatwave. I'm seeing some stuff calling for over a 40% chance of rain on Sunday & Monday. While we really need the rain, it stinks that it may ruin some plans for the holiday weekend. I guess we'll just have to wait and see, right?
Good for you to finally get the vaccine. We got the moderna also.
Couldn't decide what we wanted for dinner last night, so we ended up taking the easy way out and went to the Grille. I am so glad we did. Got to see and sit with a few of our old friends, including the people next door in the spool house. The way our lanais are situated, we can't see if either of us are outside, so we were glad to visit for a while last night. Also found out our old neighbors from the other side are in the area, so I hope we get to see them too over the next few days.
Not much going on here today. I have to blanch a pile of plum tomatoes to put in the freezer sometime today. Also making steaks for dinner tonight. Not sure yet what we'll have with it though at this point. Probably baked potato and corn on the cob. This is the heart of corn season in Florida, so we are eating a lot of this oh so sweet corn while it's available right now.
I see by the clock on the wall that it's almost lunchtime. I need to throw on a load of laundry before we find something to eat, so I better get a move on. Have a wonderful day, gang, and make sure you follow the rules!
