Good afternoon!
Pat, sounds like Bert is having my favorite kind of Birthday, one that get's celebrated for days & days!
Keeping a close eye on Idalia, but haven't started to bring anything inside yet. I was thinking you had a big whole house generator.
Dave, growing up in Ohio whenever we would go to visit family we almost always took our shoes off. Most people had carpet back then & my parents didn't want us getting it "dirty". Now I mostly leave my shoes on & my guests do the same. Only time I try to remember to take them off is if I have been mowing or working in the yard, then they are usually full of sand.
Kathie, glad you were able to share your neighbors generator & save your food! Sounds like a nice send off for George and seeing so many old friends made the trip even better, in spite of the circumstances.
Lee, I think it was my bright hat rather than my sweetness that attracted the bee. We've had a problem with bee's in the pool before, I guess they swoop in to get a drink & then can't fly back out. We fished 2 more out that were floating around yesterday & once they were clear of the water they flew off.
Bill, hope you caught up on your sleep last night. I had one of those can't get to sleep nights & finally got up & cleaned the kitchen. I did fall asleep fairly soon after that, but woke up several times in the night so it wasn't restful.
Had my 1st of 4 B-12 shots this morning and misread my appt. time and got there 20 mins. early, and I guess since it was Monday everyone else was there too, so I ended up having to wait till 8:30. Once I got called back I had my shot, made my next 3 appts. and was gone in less than 10 mins.
Went to Dunkin Donuts to pick up a gift card for Deb, her birthday is Wed. but they are having a birthday lunch tomorrow at the clubhouse due to Idalia's expected arrival Wed. While I was there I got an Caramel Mocha iced coffee & 2 pumpkin donuts as a treat for me!
Ear is doing ok today, it's a little itchy, but not swollen & I haven't had to take any Benadryl so that's a plus.
Going over to Jane's this evening to take down her sun shade & tie down some of her patio chairs. Most everything else is still in the garage from last years storm, so that will save some time.
Tomorrow I will bring my grill onto the porch & bring in a few light items, so it won't take me long either to get ready.
