Good morning. It’s 10 o’clock and still a little bit foggy here in Central Florida. Forecast is to be the mid-80s today! I reloaded the clean clothes into the RV while Mark vacuumed it and we’re 90% ready for the next trip. Schweeet. The upcoming campout is redneck style. It’ll be a blast. 

Mark groomed the Scotties this afternoon ... saves us $100+ 🐾💕🤩 and they look great! Mark bagged the hair and it was a couple of pounds. They certainly will feel so much better. 

Today our neighbor Lani experienced a cracked vision in one eye. Marky-Mark phoned for help and Mark recommended our eye doctor. They went there for a multitude of tests ... all for $96. Thankfully it was an optic migraine ... age related. Haha, Lani didn’t want to hear that. After the good news, they came over for drinks and we went to Del Sol Mexico in downtown Eustis for dinner. Yum yum ... delicious food.

Good morning. The cheddar Bay biscuits were absolutely delicious. Itchy eyes and indigestion aren’t much fun. Yes, I know I have a wheat allergy, but hey, it was my birthday! My dad always said “what’s the good of abirthday if you can’t do what you want!” That’s a good one dad, but boy have we suffered the next day over the years. 🤣 Anyway, I was up at 5 AM using eyedrops, taking Tums and reading till 630 ... and no, none of this happens when I stick to my low-carbohydrate program. 🙄 

So, I took the dogs out at five and it was heavy fog, hence FOGGYVILLE. Ha. It stayed cloudy most of  the day! Mark avoided washing windows by redesigning the bird feeder. There’s one super acrobatic squirrel who gets in there and chases birds away. So now, we have a 2 story feeder!

It looks like a pontoon boat to me. 😲 Now we just have to wait and see ...

We called Rick this evening and had a good chat on FaceTime. He’s still hopeful to buy the property across the street, but it’s a long shot. It’s pretty challenging buying from one country in another. Rules just don’t match. Maybe when he’s done with Carrie’s place, he and Ruth will fly down here to shop (and visit.) 

So tonight we enjoyed our front porch for a couple of hours. It was beautiful ... breezy and 72F. Tonight, the Olympics are starting so that will be our entertainment. Ta Ta

Good morning sunshine? Are you amid that Pea soup fog?

What a Super Bowl football game that was, eh! Kept you guessing right to the last second. Congratulations to the patriots for the big comeback. Alas, Randy lost a bet. Waa waaa. 

So, what's up for today you wonder? Mark just left for the post office with a larger than usual eBay sale. I sold a saltwater pearl necklace to a person in Mississippi. Yay! Then, he is off to his appointment in theVillages.  This is the last full week of radiation for him! 

This afternoon, we are taking Mr. Robbie to the vet. He was in distress yesterday (likely his anal glands) and couldn't settle down. I gave him a baby aspirin before bedtime and snuggled til he calmed down and slept. Of course, then I didn't sleep! 

My birthday present arrived on Saturday. Here is Mz BeeZee showing it off ... 

 

Nice fangs! It's a hand-tufted Scottie dog rug and our two brats are loving it. 🐾💕🐾🙄

Yes, it was Robbie's anal glands. Without going into stinky details, the vet accomplished what we couldn't. Ka-Ching 💵 

 

Waiting at our vet's office. (Bee went for support and was trying to be invisible here.) 💕 Robbie immediately felt better! Yay. 

This afternoon I vacuumed and cleaned my craft room and set it up as a bedroom for (cousin) Donny's visit. It didn't take long ... I just had to get started! The new Intex bed seems great. It took about 5 minutes to self-inflate and is about 2' high. Cool. 

Well it's TV time ... Ta Ta til tomorrow.

Only Sue will get a laugh from the title, above. 😂 I'll attempt to share the story. Our dear ol' Dad, we thought, "shouldn't be" caring for the big house he and Mom were living in at the time. Well, Sue and I attempted to get him looking at Leisureville properties. The houses were considerably smaller and maintenance was included. It seemed brilliant to Sue and I but dad called it "old foggyville" instead of old fogyville. As you can see, it didn't translate that well but at the time Sue and I were in tears laughing. So what brought that back to memory? Well, it's a little foggy here in Central Florida this morning! 63F now ... 80F later. Schweet. 

The doggies and I are joining Mark on his daily drive to The Villages and doing errands along the route. Since Diane and Kris have taken over Thanksgiving, officially, they are "inheriting" autumn garland. So we shall drop that off and then we have a return to make at  Beall's ... a post office with an eBay parcel and maybe Sonic? Haha. 

Ha ha. By the time Mark went into his appointment, he realized how much he enjoys the ride by himself. LOL 😂 

Chores done, we left the doggies at home and went to Crazy Gators for lunch. It was gorgeous with 80F and low humidity. 

 

Sue and Wayne went dancing at the Elks tonight. They spent their day getting back to normal after having been away nearly a week!

Randy and Dawn had granddaughter Makenna at TheVillages tonight. 

 

 Dawn looks lovely in the blue bow ... but on Randy it looks like a bra on his head. LOL 

Well that's it for tonight.
