August 2019 ~ Please Share your Day...

This morning on my early walk around 6:30,it was refreshingly cool at 60
I took the bus to local grocery store{TOPS} because it was too far to walk,20 blocks
This afternoon I went to see my favorite,doggie,Aker ,when I walked into the living room wish I had a camera. He was lying on his back on sofa,paws dangling.I bent down rubbed his stomach,bent down to give him a hug.He wagged his tail,kissed my nose.
I took him around the block,he was panting,its a warm day here.When we returned he raced to his waterbowl,then sat&waited for his treat.As I was leaving,he was lying on the rug near the A/C very content
 

Well, yesterday was a day from hell... As I said yesterday, was still in some pain, didn't sleep well... Well I said to myself, ya gotta get up and try, so I finally did.. Well I do some scrapping here and there, and thought I need to get the cement out of the end of that pipe I took out yesterday, so I got the compressor going, to only have problems with the hose. Finally discovered the problem so went to buy a new hose, Get it home, after another ordeal, we'll go there in a sec... Get it all back together, works great for a few minutes, and stops again... To discover it' the connector also. So today I have to go and buy a new connector. I wouldn't worry about it, but I am hoping to do the brakes on Saturday and need the air compressor...

So while I was out, and in town, I called an old friend up, who I don't see a lot anymore to go for a coffee, So we sat down by the water and shot the sh1t about the old days at work, and life. Had a great conversation. Got up to leave, drop him off at home, and continued on my way home, when I discovered I don't have my cell. So back to the park, though that was the last time I had it. Searched for an hour... So thought I was supposed to have the truck home about 3:30 - 4:00 for Lorie to drive home the Grandson. So hurried home, about 15 minutes down the highway. Apologized I was late and explained why I was late when I hear my alarm from my phone to remind me to take some of my meds.

Lorie and I quickly rip the truck apart to find my phone had fallen down between the seats...

Well, that's the day...
Have a GREAT day, and God Bless to YOU...
Hope tomorrow is better for you, @mike4lorie
 
Oh, lordy, didn't sleep well last night. Up from one till three a.m. Slept till seven-thirty. after breakfast of Malt-O-Meal, toast,
and slice of ham and coffee I washed up the dishes cleaned the cabinets and stove, took my medicine, sit down to finish my
second cup of coffee. Went over to my kids who are back from London, Spain, and Italy. Georgio, my Daughter in law's
brother, whom they brought back home with them, from Italy, for a three months stay. Georgio has Downs Syndrome, is forty-six years
old and he has been to America twice before for short visits. I had written down about twenty short phrases and questions in Italian
so we could greet him properly. He remembers "Anna & bill." Back home I took a short nap and preparing to go to the grocery
store. Tomorrow we have guest arriving from Ft Worth. That's my day. I try to go with the flow.

Good Morning Ladies, Gents... It's Saturday, where did the week go this time? Well, yesterday was a GREAT day till I shared an ice cream cone with Grand Son (and I know better)... as soon as I got home, I began to feel horrible... Sugar high (slept for about 3 hours) Got up and cut 1/2 the property before dinner... Do the rest today...

This morning, we are going up to the town we used to live in, they are celebrating their 200th Anniversary... Then come home, finish cutting the grass, and then a BIG job... Birds built a nest in the garage, and have sh!t everywhere... So have to clean that up today, so I can get truck in the garage to do brakes...

Well, Kids, I hope YOU all have a wonderful Saturday... God Bless YOU all...

I had a wonderful start to my morning.My close friend,Marcia asked me to come over,we walked the family dog,Aker around the block.As usual he was happy to see me.
We went on one of our 'road trips' to a section in downtown Buffalo,"Larkinville" where I've never been to .We stopped at old fashion diner{like in the 50's} for breakfast,I had pancakes with maple syrup,couldn't eat it all,food was delcious
It was her way of thanking me for taking Aker on his afternoon walks whenever she&hubby Dave aren't home. I've told them many times ,Aker is 'my dog too' even though I can't pets in my apt building
The rest of my day take my walks maybe sit out in the garden this afternoon
 
From when I woke up this morning I've been trying to convince my husband just to relax today. It's really hot outside already and will be this way all day. I wasn't getting anywhere with him and then my daughter called. She said she was going to get her daughters school supplies and my husband said he would like to go with her. She'll pick him up in about an hour. Thank God for having children.
 
Good Morning Friends...
Yesterday we spent the day in the garage cleaning it up. It has not looked that good for years. Now have to work on the workshop and organize it, so I can do the brakes on the truck. I'd never find anything now... I'll need to take a picture of how clean it is... and share it... But that is all we did yesterday, took the whole day and 7 garbage bags went to the end of the driveway for garbage today... Well, I hope YOU ALL have a GREAT day today... and God Bless YOU all...

For lunch I ate the last of the macaroni salad I made the other day. I usually make just enough to eat in a couple days. Then I went to Lollypop Farm, our local animal shelter. They have a petting zoo. I went to visit the horses. Then I went inside to wander through the cat room. I would still like to adopt a couple. But sadly, right now my eyes are itchy and I am sneezing.
 
Well, Good Morning Friends... Well the Garage is cleaned, and so is the workshop, so today after breakfast with the boys, I will be doing the brakes...

I have a few pictures to share... But have to wait till my phone charges up to share... So later today, or tomorrow... Not a lot of news since last two days in garage and workshop... It's so clean and organized, afraid to use now... LoL... Well, Kids, I hope YOU all have a wonderful Tuesday... and God Bless YOU all

Yesterday afternoon I went target shooting..haven't been for ages..!! I was surprised how busy it was being a Monday!!

Then when I got back I spent a couple of hours organising photo folders on my desktop... jeez I have so many I need a couple of days to do it

This morning so far, I've just got the washing and drying done.. and topped up the water in the car windscreen washer
 
Today is my volunteer morning at Canopy of Neighbors,I'll be calling some members.
I couldn't be there yesterday because the Geek Squad tech was here to convert my Windows 7 computer to my HP ChromebookThis afternoon,weather permitting I'll be taking my favorite dog,Aker for his afternoon walk
 
Bad to worse yesterday. Took wife to eye doctor for her exam, she’s okay, but asked the doctor to look at my right eye, red and sore. Have an infection in that eye and have to use drops every four hours.

Then, he ask me if I’d been checked for glaucoma. Yes, I told him I have been a suspect for years. No longer a suspect. I have it and need more drops. Bummer. :(
 
Yesterday was my 77th birthday, so we went to the casino....I broke even, and my wife won a couple hundred....and we had a great free Supper. Sunday, the oldest daughter had a birthday party for me, at their lake house, and the Son-in-laws and I went fishing for a couple of hours in the morning. It was a really nice weekend.
