Hello Friends!
How are you? Once again I find myself in ithe land of grogginess. Here is is 8:40 a.m. and I've only had a couple sips of coffee. In fact, I have not even been up for an hour! Who am I? I've always gotten up by 6 a.m. if not earlier, but recently...not so much. I woke up at 5:30 this morning, but rolled over to "just rest" for a few minutes. Those few minutes turned into 2.5 hours! Oh well, I guess I needed it.
My computer says it is 44 out, but it seems milder to me. Other than heat in the bathroom for my shower, I have not turned on any heat. Fletch is just getting out of the shower, so I'll have to notice if he puts on heat downstairs or not. It's another sunny day, so I am hoping to get outside a bit at some point.
The weekend was lovely...only a few work emails - nothing like the prior week or two. I met up with Dee for a few hours Saturday morning. As always, we laughed and laughed and did a little knitting. Saturday was a beautiful day, so Fletch and I had a fire that night.
It was a perfect night for a fire. A little chilly on the back side - I told Fletch I needed to be put on a spit so that I could easily rotate - LOL. There were more visible stars than usual and it was just lovely.
We were a little worried about Mabel. She had gotten sick Friday night - piles of puke in two places. Got that cleaned up and she spent most of Saturday curled up in a chair sleeping on Saturday. Then we noticed she was limping a little bit and keeping one of her hind legs off the floor when standing. Once I told her that we would need to take her to the vet she seemed to improve. Now she is back to running around (no limping) and consuming her usual amount (rather large quantity) of food.
Sunday was a perfectly slow and easy day. I cleaned the bathrooms (Karyn who comes to clean our house had taken a birthday break), washed the towels and bath rugs and also the shower curtain liner and rubber mat for the tub. Fletch grilled wings for dinner and I made biscuits and coleslaw to go with those. I also made a yummy apple/cranberry crisp. A taste of heaven!
I had to run out in the afternoon to pick up a prescription and on my way to CVS is a house that has a Halloween scene outside:
Fishing skeletons with an Alien between them! Hahahaha
Happy Halloween everyone! I need to go pour another cup of coffee!
