Good morning! Same old, same old weather planned for today. Maybe this time we will actually get some rain. Lately, everything has been going right around us. I swear Lake Toho has something to do with it.
Kathie - That is so great that first you got to talk to your brother and then got to see your childhood home, outside & inside. I can understand why that made you cry. Even if I wanted to, I couldn't go see my childhood home. What was once a beautiful area has been taken over by undesirables. Lots of drug deals and way too many shootings happen there. oh yeah, we're also the wrong color to show up in that neighborhood these days. Glad you at least get to check that off on your bucket list.
That is one heck of a truck Jimmy got. He'll be using it as his work truck as he grows his new business.
Love the Jon Stewart clip. Talk about speaking out of both sides of your mouth! What a hypocrite!!!
Dave - Glad the heat is giving you a break right now. It's still hot as he!! here with feels like temps 100+. We don't even think about going out on the lanai until 4 or 5 once the sun is off the area. Then at least it's doable. Your daughter has to be made of some hardy stuff to have to deal with the temps they've been continuously having in Arizona.
The main thing M&J are still dealing with on their house is that they need the family room ceiling totally redone. There was a small leak and the contractors tried to patch it. That patch sticks out like a sore thumb and until they replac that whole ceiling, M&J will not sign off on it.
Lee - So did you get that dishwasher emptied? Would you believe ours hasn't been used in months? I can't convince Bert to use it. Just like he won't use that seal a meal system to freeze meats. He is so old school and these are things he does his way and nothing will change that.
The kids came over for dinner last night. As Missy put it, we were getting Nate, Jennifer and "the garbage can". That's Wesley. Man can he ever eat! I thought I had enough leftovers for another night or two. WRONG!! What little was left, Wes took home to eat either late last night or today. So having no leftovers, we will be having braised pork chops tonight. That's a favorite of Bert's.
After a stay at home weekend, after lunch we will be off again. I'm still trying to find bridal shower wrapping paper. Heck, at this point, I'll take any solid color wrapping paper and make that work. First stop will be Target and if that's a bust, we'll have to hit the dreaded Wally World.
But before we do anything, it will be time for some lunch. That will be my quest shortly. In the meantime, y'all take care and have a wonderful day!
