Saturday, April 6, 2019

Good morning. It was our sweet little BZ who decided 7:30 was late enough for us to sleep in. 😜 And, she was correct. We have things to do before our evening of merriment. 

Mark decided our old barbecue was ready for the trash. He had repaired it numerous times and put several new parts in it a few times over the past 5 years. Now, we’re going to use the smoker in its place. It moved into the gabled shelter where the barbecue was. Smoked burgers 🍔 were last night’s fare.

I’ve been enjoying my houseplants the past year or two. Today, they needed sorting out and fertilizing. That kept me busy enough for an hour or two. Next, job is the hot tub. Chemicals have to be balanced and water added. 🤔 

Robbie and BeeZee are happy sitting on the front porch today. I keep setting a timer and bringing them in every few minutes to cool down, but they seem to enjoy the morning sunshine. They have about five minutes left and then it’s inside and I’ll get about my chores again. 🙄

Mark began work on the rear gable this morning. 

Removing the aluminum siding was tough ... it was nailed on with roofing nails; lots of them! (He made a Rick M type scaffold with 2 ladders and a board ... fortunately I didn’t see it!) 

Randy and Dawn are expecting her mom to arrive tomorrow night. I know Randy is dashing around the house doing last-minute things while Dawn is working this weekend! 

Sue and Wayne have been busy too. Didn’t we all expect to slow down in retired life? Well that doesn’t seem to be the case. Maybe it’s because things we normally would have paid for we now do ourselves. What do you think? 

This evening, we are going out with Karen, Pete, LaDonna, Wayne, Dee and Rick to The Villages. We’ll have dinner and then enjoy music at the Square. (Randy & Dawn have told us that a big red solo cup of wine is $5) Glug glug glug 😜 


LaDonna & Wayne ... Rick & Dee ... US ... Karen & Pete. The food was good ... music was good ... and we all had a B L A S T 😜
