Good morning ~

Good news about the bloodwork walker!  Isn't it funny how when you get in the dental chair, your nose starts in or you have an itch?  Thanks for the warning about trucks hauling  without covering their loads.  Lucky the drywall missed you and glad you didn't follow him.  I'll be he would hve bowed down if he knew who he was dealing with and you were Royalty♛😄 

Tootie, pot pie sounds delicious for a Birthday dinner!  Love them.  A party on Saturday to celebrate  with family.    FUN FUN and more FUN!  Lucky you - rain and cool weather.  We will be a cool 89 with a good chance of rain today.  Rain yes, temp no, but will be thankful for what we get.  

Shout out to kittyfan - soon to be Queen Bee of Shady Oaks!

Good morning friends ... finally! it took forever for the Q to let me sign in ... it's kids day!! and it is going to be a rainy day 68 degree day ... indoors for sure!!

walker, yikes!! lucky thing you were aware of that drywall on top of that truck ... things could have ended up much worse!! ... and you're right about what might have happened had you followed him and confronted him about it ... oh, the tickle in the throat ... I'm sure the dentist didn't think anything of it ... it gave him a little break too!

Shout out to kittyfan ... 👋

Have a good day ... pouring and passing.

Good Morning Friends!  ☕️🌤️

Happy Wednesday!  Hope it is a good day for everyone....swing, sway, go with flow, don't worry...be happy!  😉

cookie.....good one for kittyfan....Queen Bee of Shady Oaks!  And, yes, so funny about being in dentist chair and those things happen.  Frequently I get an itchy nose...strange!  89 there today?  That might seem chilly after weeks of 100's!  

Pot pie for Tootie's birthday makes me hungry for one too....time for those Fall comfort foods!  Have fun with the kids today, Tootie.

I don't have to rush to anything this morning.  Might go buy some mums today.  Time for Fall decorations inside and out! 🍂🍁

Bye for now.....see you later....🐊..😆.

good morning. Yesterday I started out with a vet visit. Jake and Holly love these gals as I do!  They greetedthem with enthusiasm!  They are very social and love to visit. The vets commented on their sassy selves. I said they had just arrived and now they have settled in.  I bought a second dog bed. Holly gets in Jakes bed. I put one next to my chair in living room. He is sleeping now. Last night he covered up with his blanket. 

Yesterday was lawn day. I g

Closed the door when I saw them. They were here last week and bagged up lots of leaves. More leaves this week.  We to lunch. Dishwasher was down. Had plastic ware!  Always a cloth napkin. When I went to dinner buzz was in addition to DW sewer issues. Not sure where food was prepared. No choices. Taco was good but I was still hungry---so I had some cottage cheese. My frig and pantry were stocked. 

Got up this morning to a rain shower. Didn't last long enough but lovely.   Hopefully more to come. 

Tootie:  chicken pot pie sounds delicious. Enjoy!!.

Walker:  oh the dental visit. 

Cookie:  enjoy this break in the weather. 

Oh my U is up

Hello friends ... my day is done here, now it's time for UB's!! we weren't able to get outside today ... it was chilly and wet! when I told  LG that we weren't going to go out because it was too wet outside, he said "actually, that's why I wore long pants today." 😊 we played with his cars ... I had to drive the police car and chase after his race car ...

kittyfan, I'm curious, can you ask for more food at dinner? and are you able to cook in your room? ... glad that each pup now has their own bed ...

Have a good night ... oh, I see the V is up ... 😏🤔 ... ok, here I go ...

oh how sweet. Wearing long pants!  I am sure your shorts season is fading quickly.

They have a menu you can order from. One lady who is a long term resident always gets an imlet at dinner. The wait staff know her vision is limited so cater to her. Some people bring their containers and ask for items. All apts have a microwave and refrigerator. I have a Keurig and my brother went shopping on Saturday and stocked me up. I have some frozen dinners, yogurt, cottage cheese, snacks etc 

He decided I needed a local bank. We had attempted to take care of this after my drs apt last week but it didn't happen. He opened an account online. I had some checks to deposit. He called me to say we needed to change accounts. I had an attorney drawing up a POA. He is fully aware of my finances etc. Having a durable POA was logical. They had emailed the final copy yesterday. So I forwarded to him to print. We needed a notary so the bank was available to complete this. She ran him a copy so we are set. Yesterday was his BD. I treated him to dinner this evening. He had ordered a Togo for his wife. So I picked up the tab. Yes I have known his wife and son for years. I told him that he was free to share anything with her. 

They are leaving on Friday for Europe. So he checked my fridge to make sure I was stocked.   I can get used to my personal shopper.

Good morning ~

kittyfan, how nice you have a microwave and refrigerator in your suite.  Your brother sure is a treasure - stocking you up and doing errands.  

Tootie, how cute of LG to wear long pants because of the rain and he "let" you play cars with him.  So now you are driving a police car and chasing race cars.  Fun for both. 

 We are cooling down - 86 today.  Hope it rains as predicted.  I didn't see any yesterday in our neck of the woods. DD said it rained at work though. 

Shout out to walker♛ Hope you got some pretty Mums!

Good Morning Friends!  ☕️🍂🍁

Happy Thursday!  You are right, Tootie, Fall is here!  I was chilly this morning and found out it was 50 outside!  But, going to mid-70's today so that will help.  I'm ready to turn on the heat.

I did not get out for mums yesterday but hope to soon.  I ended up running a couple of other errands....picked up a new book at library...The Bookbinder by Pip Williams...maybe you have heard of it kittyfan?  Any Book Club at Shady Oaks?

Yesterday afternoon we went to GD's volleyball game...not good...GD not happy...oh well, keep trying!  Then we met friends at last car show for season and dinner outside...might be last of outdoor dining too.  We had a heater by table which made it comfortable.  A glass of wine warmed me up too....haha.

Tootie, cute story about LG and "the pants" but funnier yet thinking of you being the police car in chase playing! 😆 Brought back memories too.  Tomorrow....🥳🎂🥂...😁.
We'll be there in spirit!

kittyfan, Bon Voyage to your brother!  He'll be missed but you'll do fine.  He is like an adopted son....great relationship.  Jake and Holly will keep you busy.

cookie, glad you are enjoying cooler temperatures.  Funny to think of 86 as "cooler".  Friends we were with last night have two daughters that live in the Dallas/Fort Worth area.  She was talking about the heat there too.  I didn't want to tell her I knew how bad it was because  I have friends in TX...would have to explain SCC and all..HA!

Babbling away....have to make Chicken Pot Pies today as I promised one to DIL...recipe makes two.  So, time to get day started.....bye for now.

Z ..... Zucchini
