Hey all.. it's racing towards 6pm.... been out all afternoon. 🌺🌞🌞First I went to the recycle (waste) centre.. and dropped off some useless stuff... ..they have a bay where if you feel your things are too good to throw away you can leave them at that Bay.. and they sell it in their recycle store...so I dropped off a cordless Vacuum cleaner, which works but isn't powerful enough for me

From there.. I drove over to the Garden centre to meet up with my friend... ( 2 different towns for each thing).. and I forgot it's the holiday weekend so the Garden centre was packed.

I didn't buy any plants because it was just too busy there.. but I did buy a couple of tops from the lovely clothes shop they have there.. .. then my friend and I had a drink sitting in the sun... I was wearing a linen shirt, and I was really hot, she was wearing a sleeveless top and she was hot.... we couldn't believe some people were wearing coats..

Here's some photos.. most taken at the entrance.. ( no horses this time Medusa) :D

No horses, but some very pretty flowers and a charming, what I'm assuming is an, Ice Cream Truck?
Sounds like you had a nice time. :)

I am glad that med helps your back, but I wonder if there is some way to change how or when, you take it, so that it might not upset your stomach. Possibly ask the pharmacist for input on that? 📬💌

Also I hope the sun comes out, and your weather improves.🌤️
If it doesn't, perhaps consider moving to someplace like Florida?:cool::giggle::LOL:;)

Thanks for the concern Kaila, but I take it with meals as suggested except the bedtime one. Only two days left on the prescription. I’ll ask the wife if she will consider moving to Florida..:ROFLMAO:
 
Another beautiful day.

My long-distance language partner is going on a trip in a day or two. I wanted to cancel for the duration of his trip (but didn't say anything). He said he wanted to keep having our conversations, and he'd let me know if there was any change of plans.

Last night, he canceled for work reasons. This was the second time in a row. I know that stuff happens, but it's hard for me, because it takes a lot of psychological energy for me to keep my side of the bargain. For example, I can't make other plans, do something spontaneously, or fall asleep.

Although he's usually very reliable, I think things will come up while he's away. I didn't want to hurt his feelings by suggesting/insisting that we cancel until he comes back. But for my sake I think I have to. This is weighing heavy on my mind!

Other than that, just the usual: housework, exercise, etc.

Your reasoning seems sound to me.
 
Right now I am laughing like a Crazy person. My daughter just sent me a picture of her sister-in-law's wedding. In it, her Mother in law's wearing a white gown. I thought my daughter got mixed up and it was her MIL's wedding. So my daughter said, "No Mom it was her daughter's wedding." Now what Mother wears a white gown to her daughter's wedding? This is the same nut who sent her daughter to check to make sure my daughter didn't look gawdy on my daughter's wedding day because my daughter is half-Italian

Thank you. I'm just afraid that, since he's young and active, he won't understand that making time for anything in my day is a huge deal.

I remember once my mother wore a white patterned dress (not a gown) to a wedding. My mother did comment that she really shouldn't wear white to a wedding. That was the first and last time I ever heard that! Meanwhile, in some places it's customary for the guests to wear white.

I first heard of this in the Toots and the Maytals song, Sweet and Dandy ("All the people dressed up in white"). Here's a scene from the movie, The Harder They Fall.

I Want that Tea Pot!!
 
My visit with my friend Jenny went well. Poked around the (smallish) farmer’s market, then spelunked in a couple consignment shops. She got some crockery and I came away with a lightweight daffodil-yellow scarf. Then we had lunch at a bistro. Lovely to catch up after so long 😊😁
 
About that duvet cover jobby I posted earlier...well, ain't gonna happen.Toothy Laff.gif
Water is OFF in laundry room.
So I will finish watching a movie I started....'The Joneses' with David Duchovny and Demi Moore.
I wasn't sure about it for about 15 minutes or so but now I am hooked to see the outcome.
