Good Morning!!!
Yesterday I had an early appt. at 7:30 am for my blood draw …..when I came home i decided to wash my KIA by hand which I knew would be really hard on my back and body. I am particular about it. I wonder why when it sits in a carport and gets dusty and then Roger gets on it. But it looks great for a day…..maybe it is worth $40 to take it to the carwash?? Then I did some laundry.
We had grilled shrimp tacos for supper.

Hi Ardy,
I like your greeting. 💛
Use the car wash and save your back Ardy!
Tacos always good, I would like to have some small sweet Maine shrimp. We get only from Canada now, which are pretty much the same. Maine has not allowed shrimping since 2014 and now extended to 2028!

Good morning, Yesterday was beautiful, sunny and near 70 degrees. Today and tomorrow are going to have a heat wave of high 80’s! Back to normal temps Thursday. We went to Moody’s diner for breakfast before getting to the laundromat, so we did not go to the cafe at the bookstore this time. I went to the second hand book store and got a cookbook and 3 novels. UPS arrived here at 8pm last night, bringing the check from the closing. We have an appt. tomorrow at our credit union in Augusta. So thankful all that is behind us now.… Read more »

Hi Jenn
Laundry day was busy fo you. Sounds like you had an early start.
That is great the check came on time. What cute ducks.

Jenn

Yes, busy for sure Ardy. We left early it takes the best part of a morning to do it.

Don’t laugh at my laundry picture, I took it to show sis Barb. 😬 It is all new and very nice if you have to use a laundromat.
It is $7.50 per machine we had 3 machines, they hold a LOT but I had sheets and blankets too.

Good morning. Beryl, Jenn, Ardyth, Kathy, Lynn, Pam. A blustery day again but the wind coming from the South so not too cold. Gusting to 30mph with some heavy showers around all day. Shopping done and dusted for another week time to devour that Pretzel.lol. Temp creeping to the 70F range and by Sunday we will be in the 80F for the whole of next week.😅. Just in time as it is a bank holiday weekend and those temps will be bringing the crowds out for the coast. Roads will be jammed solid by Sunday. Coffee time now see you… Read more »

Good morning Ice,

It always seems sudden when the weather turns so warm, our Springs are similar I think, here in Maine. 🌞
I imagine your beaches will be overflowing with families anxious to have some fun.
Pretzel day again already, yikes the time goes fast.🥨

Hi Jenn.
Hard to believe that that by Sunday it could be 30F warmer than today.
It will be absolute chaos Jenn because the last two holiday weekends have been a washout so families will be making up for that.
Time passing fast you can say that again it just seemed like yesterday that we were shopping.😀😘

Howdy-do Lovely Early Bird People 🐦 Cool/cloudy morning; supposed to be 72 later; pretty sure it won’t get there 🤔 Went to the post office, then got enough gas to get to Pueblo tomo when i can fill up at Sam’s; their gas is a lot less $$$ than anywhere else. The R/T to Colo Spgs pretty much drained the tank and i refuse to attempt the drive to Pueblo tomo with less than 1/4 tank — i am just too old to be running out of gas in the middle of nowhere. 🙄 In fact, i don’t remember ever doing that; I’ve been… Read more »

Hi Ardy,
That sounded like a sad movie. It is such a horrible disease. Patty my friend does not even know her own children or husband anymore.

Good morning, We had another beautiful day yesterday. Today is sunny with a high of 66. We visited at an old friends house, Gene and his wife Patty were close friends but we have not seen them much since we moved away from this area. Patty is sadly now in a nursing facility with Alzheimer’s. She is not doing well at all. Gene is selling his home and moving everything out and 2 of his children were there helping move stuff. He is moving into a cabin on property he has owned for many years, he is only selling a… Read more »

That looks like a nice place with a cover for shade. You should enjoy that.
That is sad about your friend, Patty.
