Just came back from the supermarket for a few things. DG and his lady are coming over for supper tomorrow night.

I've been seeing recipes for this dish called French Onion Chicken and it seems tasty so I will try it.

Before the sun even rose, I:
~Went down to the laundry room and washed a double load
~Disinfected the bags I use to carry the clothes back upstairs.
~Sorted the next batch of laundry (coats)
~Reorganized a portion of my storage closet
~Performed my ritual washing and made my Fajr (before sunrise) prayer
Later, after my nap I:
~Dried my clothes. I hung the ones that hardly wrinkle....less ironing necessary that way. Maybe I'll put the rest away today.
~Watched the last episode and a half of this season's Bridgerton .
I will spend the rest of the afternoon catching up on some social networking here and on FB and perhaps watch a little more T.V. later.
 
My dil, son & grandson & me went to a beautiful local park. We took an uphill walk but it was fine & glorious to do so. Dil prepared a picnic. The weather is perfect! As of this moment, son & wife gone food shopping for me & them & grandson napping. Tonight we will eat out Italian & later throw a small party for my son, whose BD is Monday.

Great day, I'm having a fantastic time!

I went to fill up my car and can't believe what I paid. I hadn't filled up in about a month. That's right. I don't go out that much.

Then after I filled up the gas tank.... I went to an estate sale that was advertised in FB Marketplace. I hadn't ever been to one of these sales. I was astonished at the people buying; they were stampeding the place and grabbing everything. I bought 2 items and left. Too wild for me.

And I kept telling myself that if I want something, to go buy it at a store. Yes, I talk to myself.

That looks so goooooooooooooooooood!!! I can't find the Campbell's french onion soup. I used it for making salisbury steaks.
 
Today it's 49 deg f ...approx 9 C... and sunny , so I've been propagating my biggest Jade plant, and feeding all of the plants their bi-annual fertiliser... I've added a little pyrite to the newly topped up compost in both Jade Pots.. , and taken 3 snippings,🌿 and one leaf🍃 from the Mother plant.. I'll let those roots dry out over the next day or 2 and then re-pot and hopefully grow yet another plant.

In the meantime to give them a boost I've placed them all on the windowsill which faces to the hot south west of my garden

They usually sit next to the light in the kitchen and livingroom anyway.. but the window sill in the livingroom is very hot through the glass so I'll let them stay there for about 3 hours to get them comfortable again after having an amputation.. :sneaky:

I've also fertilised my new outdoor potted Jasmine which is sitting in the sun...
 
After having such a fantastic day yesterday, I will just tidy up stuff. My son was showing me videos of our lost cat Max. It was heartbreaking. In January, Max was healthy & gorgeous. February, starting to look sickly.............you know the rest. It happened So Fast. Broke my heart to see him. I try very very hard to keep myself on an even keel and not go crazy, so it's a constant challenge.

My son loved his gifts, work out shorts & Paw Patrol Game, which he can hardly wait to play with his almost 4 year old son.

Had a wonderful, heartwarming fun day yesterday.
 
I went on my early walk around 6:40,heard the birds chirping,temp was 37 It was nice not to see any snow,hopefully we've seen the last of it for this yr.As I was coming back into apt complex by the back entrance, notice a rabbitt aka'thumper/thumperina chewing on the grass in our garden,didn't notice me
This morning going to our 10:30 church service, getting a ride with church friend, Ardrey. We have known each other since childhood she lives 3 blocks away,she's also picking up another church friend. The rest of my day,read local paper, talk with my brother as we always do each week. I hope to get in another walk this afternoon,read my book which I started couple days ago
 
Today I will spend some time paying my bills and son's as well. After that I am updating my planner. I have been bad not always keeping it updated. Going to catch up on it and then make sure to do it from now on. What is the sense of buying it and not using it? After I do all that, I have a small pile of papers to file and recipes to print out put in sheet protectors. All of that is sitting down work that should be easy for me to do. No excuses.
 
Will make some pumpkin muffins today with cream cheese frosting (some with vegan CC for DH & me) for a gathering tomorrow at DD's house.
While they're baking I'll start on some pizza dough so I can make pizzas and calzones on Monday. DD's freezer and ours are out of pizza. Gasp!
So, the best laid schemes of mice and men going oft awry, so did my plans for yesterday.

The gathering was shifted to yesterday late afternoon, the guest of honor (who's visiting from out of town) made a special request for my double chocolate brownies, and when I started setting up for the pizza dough I realized that between the groceries I'd picked up for myself plus some for DD there was no room in the fridge for 16-20 containers of dough to do a slow rise. o_O

I quickly shifted gears, made a big batch of brownies (including some for DH & me to have here, and a big platter for DD's family), enjoyed a lovely evening at DD's, brought her groceries to her, and will attempt to clear some space in that fridge today.

We'll see how it goes with respect to pizza dough. There are plenty of other chores on my list...
 
Took the dog out at 4:30 this morning, and went back to bed. Got up at 7:00 and let her out. Trying to get her used to being out alone, as she still doesn't like being away from me, Though she is exploring more around the property, and took off after a bunny, and spent 15 minutes trying to get it out of my steel stock pile before giving up. The Chipmunks are out and about, so something else to keep her entertained. Deer will be back soon, so will have to teach her not to chase them. Had a nice leisurely breakfast, and will make my way out to the shop by 11:00 or so for some more painting work. Hope you all have a great Sunday.

Fun hearing about your dog!
