A cool afternoon here in The Burg. But then again it was cool, um, cold and felt like 39F at 5:30 this morning when Ava and I headed out. And it was still cold down by the river at 8:30.
Thank you for the good news about our Pat Kathie. Let's all hope that there are no more visits to the hospital for a LONG LONG time.
Our boosters won't be available until the middle of October Bill. Or so the brain trust tells us. We will most certainly be getting the booster, flu and likely whatever other shot they are giving out and suggest that we should have.
I found it interesting that the English Muffins are done in a frying pan Kathie. As good as they look I'm thinking that our friend Thomas makes a fine English Muffin and all I have to know how to do it open the bag. Mr. Manny sure is one good lookin' pup. How's he feeling? Lu-Ann and I are so fortunate to have found the lady that we rent from for the winter. It may not be on the beach but it's not in the cold and snow either. Our rent has only gone up 10% over five years. Other friends have seen their rents double. I like to think that it's because we take care of the house, leave it clean and don't complain about every little thing while we are there.
Thank you for the wishes Karen. Half the gang is in Dewey Beach for a Greyhound gathering. Monday is games day so in a twist to the theme someone is bringing turkey soup - made from their left over Sunday turkey, we are doing baked potato skins, someone is bringing rolls and we have pumpkin tarts for dessert. Always a good idea to quarantine after being around any little folks. Or "germ factories" as I like to call them. Jim and Gail may stop at their daughter's in Cleveland and have said that if the kids so much as have a sniffle they won't be here Monday.
That rule of thumb for transports is something I do try to do Dave. I don't hate all semi drivers. Just the illiterate ones and the ones who think that the left lane is reserved for them. Refer again to the signs that clearly state "No trucks in the left lane".
I find it sad that no matter what or who is involved we tend to paint all of that group with the bad brush. Human nature I guess.
I know the clock says wine but my tummy feels like coffee. I'm sure I can rectify that. If I have enough wine I'll forget that I wanted coffee.
Whatever you all do for the rest of today, please be careful and enjoy!
