It’s that nationwide chain that we all have and I think it must be something new.

Don’t worry, I’ll look after that cute little bugger for you. 😂
 

We got the winds today too....warm winds. I loved seeing the bunny rabbits running with the winds kicking up their cotton tails.

Picked up the cladding for the windows and hopefully the handyman will install this weekend. Will be sooooo glad when this project is done.

Today I watered, weeded, tried on clothes and made a donation pile. Tomorrow I will thrift shop for other peoples donations when I drop my donations off.

I had an appointment at 8:00a to have some work done on my car. I always have the work done at the dealer which is 40 min away. So I got up at 6:00a ( I am soooo NOT a morning person), showered and got ready, took the dog for a quick walk before leaving then headed out the door. I waited while they were doing the work on my car and spent the time reading on my Kindle. A few hours later the car was ready to go. I stopped for gas then made a few other stops on the way home. Got home walked the dog again, had some lunch, answered emails, did usual house stuff then took a nap for 2 hours because I felt sleep-deprived getting up so early. Made dinner, fed the fur baby and all of the usual evening stuff. Pleasant day all in all even though it was very hot here and the rain has moved in.

I would need a nap as well. I am also not a morning person. I consider waking up anytime before 8:00am an assault on my freedom, and if can sleep until 9:30 or 10:00am I will. This is my go-to quote.

Well thank you for those kinds words.

I try to keep 'above it' as they say but hard sometimes and especially in this past hour.
The checkup on my thumb amputation which was next Monday has been cancelled.
No reason, no excuse...it will be rescheduled.
I phoned to see if they could tell me approximately when that would be but the answer I immediately got was the message box is full.
I can put that message on my own home phone so this is just more BS from the medical system here....

There is an old saying that good help is hard to find. One of the reasons why I decided to retire from health care, was because it was hard for me work with people who didn't care about doing a good job. (They cared more about the YouTube videos on their phones!!! 😠.) Of course, there were plenty of employees who still did a good job....but not like there used it be.

Hang in there....being frustrated only hurts you!
 
My 4 year old grandson is "graduating" from 3K to preK. There will be a celebration in Central Park. There are two beautiful smaller parks right near the school, but No, not good enough. The children will walk from their school to Central Park. The distance is at least (let me count) 10 huge city blocks. It's a long walk. I think that's so stupid. There won't even be a place to sit. I'm going of course, going first to my son by train and we will take a bus most of the way.

Yesterday in class, the kids made ice pops and we will all have a chance to sample them. After the celebration they will play, then we will have pizza or something. Access A Ride claims they will pick me up to go home at 8:39 pm. We'll see. They never get it right, I'm always a nervous wreck.

Don't you think it's dumb to have 4 year olds walking in this crazy city? I know I will have a great time, but lately having a great time is too much for me.

Bet it's been a long time since she was paid $10K to show up somewhere. Ah, the arrogance of youth and being at the top of the heap. People think it will last forever.

Our pool is a delightful 88°, just right for DH & me to pull back the cover, enjoy early morning swims, then recover it to keep evaporation to a minimum. After swimming we hose off while standing on the first step of the pool so we don't waste any precious water.

Need to do about an hour's worth of business work this morning. We'll be watching baby grandson most of the day, but it'll be too hot to take him outside.

That's a long way for little one's to walk .. especially in the heat of summer. A school bus would be better.

that's a very long walk for 4 years olds.. what on earth are the teachers thinking ?... Drive them to the park by all means or as you say use the closer parks.. but make them walk when they're just toddlers is very bad...
