Morning all. No rain today but a 25-40% chance of showers on Firday and Sattiday, so I may mow the lawn this afternoon/evening (hey, it’s only getting to 91F today…). Also have soccer, so should be a fairly busy day. Garbage is out and ready for pickup.

**Nava** , couldn’t do what you do; I liked having a steady job. Hope all works out as you wish.

**swampy** , windows don’t take long to do, had my whole house (11 windows) done in a day.

All y’all take care.

**Butters** , this is your \*\*Mooooom \*\*speaking - do NOT go to work tomorrow! Stay home and recuperate! They can get along without you and they don’t need your germies!!!

Are you saying she should have left without it?

**Swampy** , save the old winders & put them out by the c-pond. That way if it gets hot out there you can open a window. 😛

Walking through the new house in a few minutes. Other than that, may be a low excitement day.

Is there such a thing as _good_ figgy pudding?  
Actually I don’t know, never having had figgy pudding, but it sounds ick.

Made taco salad again last night. Twas good except someone has apparently absconded with my salsa. :dubious: **Wifey** packed a big cooler full of stuffs to take with, so I suspect it went in there. I need to take last night’s movie back to the Box of Red, so I’ll just get some more.

It rained last night and cooled done a bit. I may actually wear long pants today. 😛

Enjoy your time with your dad, **Red**.

Rest up and take care **Butter** , Whatever it is it can wait. Except ice cream. Ice cream can’t wait.

Howdy Y’all! I have brand new windows! Well, except for three windows. Didn’t replace the ones in the livin’ room and study cause they’re protected by the awnin’ and screen on the back porch. Maybe I should have done those as well, but I didn’t. Window folks were late gettin’ here this mornin’ but when they got started they got it done fast. Now I get to clean windows. Rah.

Beautiful new home **Sunny**. I hope you will have many happy years there.

Lazy day. Lazy week. I am feeling much better by the minute. Thank God. Being sick is no fun.

I never did venture out to the store but I want something that we don”t have but I don’t yet know what that is.

Home. \*\*FCD \*\*is bidding a potentially huge job that has a very short timeline. Fingers crossed…

I think supper will be ravioli and Amish green beans and fresh pineapple. Yeah, I know, a weird combination, but what ya gonna do?

😃

And for those of you who can’t get enough of me on FB, I just posted a couple of photos of RoxStar at the beach this morning.

Love the house, **Sunny** ; is it all wood floors? Master Bathroom looks a lot like mine.

**Butters** , I’m with **Moooommm** and **Bumba** ; don’t be fooled by your ‘feeling better’. Relapses are not fun either. Take long weekend.

**Swampy** , told you they’re fast these days on windows. Happy Windexing.

Lawn has been mowed, nappage has been napped, and body bathed, so I am good. soccer in about an hour, then dinner.

But after the police action there’s puppies! 😃  
Sorry. I’ve never been good at taking directions.

Great house, **Sunny**!

Yay for the windows **swampy**!

**butters** , listen to **Mooooooom**.

**bumba** , I’m thinking that figgy pudding may be the English equivalent of fruitcake. 😛 Could be good or bad, depending upon the eater’s taste and the ingredients.

Nice house **sunny**!

I got a load of laundry and the last project finished this morning, delivered the project and the kid bag to Nashville this afternoon, got the green beans and bacon to take with me, filled up the gas tank and got some cash from the ATM before coming home. I picked up some chicken tenders when I popped into the market, so that and the last of the salad vegetation was supper.

While on the northeast side of Nashville, I popped into what used to be a nice little produce market when I lived in that part of town. Back in the late nineties/early 2000s, 3/4 of the store was fresh produce, they had some bulk bins and a few general grocery items. Now, it’s a rundown store with maybe 1/4 fresh produce, 1/4 saint candles, sombreros, piñatas, etc and a bunch of general groceries. It has the same owners, but they changed to meet the changing neighborhood. ☹ I wound up at Kroger for the green beans.

Yes, all wood except the master closet. There didn’t seem much point in spending the money for a closet.

I ordered dinner. I’m just beat. Hubby comes home tonight. 😃
