Sounds like today is a shopping day for a lot of you and I'm included.
I need to get some things before Fourth of July rush like slider rolls which are harder to find.
It will get me out while they finish up the shower.
DH will do the rest of the bathroom updates. That shower was just too much. I'm so glad that part is off of him. He is too because the new shower walls go all the way up to the ceiling which he was going to have to repair along with walls that he won't have to deal with when he removes wallpaper and paints. An odd beam will be removed that would also have to have wallpaper removed to paint.
An acrylic pan will cover the ceiling. So, no more tile which we were kind of undecided about but we'll have travertine walls. Easier to keep clean. Because we did this partly through the V.A. this will have all the grab bars and safety features including a teak seat so now I can safely shave those three leg hairs but, more importantly it will accommodate our advancing age.
 
Morning all earlybirds!!! sunny start to a day that may get
very stormy later on...weather peeps say we're in very likely
area of severe t'storms, hail, chance of tornados...got my doc

On my early walk at 6:40, walked around the complex, temp was 57,wore my fleece hoodie
Two friends/residents from Tudor PLaza{ where I use to live} I've invited for lunch today at 12:30.Liz who lives 2 floors up from my apt,moved to TP about 15 yrs ago,known her for most of my adult life. She& her family lived 4 houses down from where I grew up with my siblings back in the 50's-70's.
The other friend, Wilmet lives in the other TP building, I got to know her over the years,a widow who is originally from North Carolina,likes to read like I do. I haven't seen them since I moved, looking forward this,its the highlight of my day
 
Happy Tuesday!!!

I'm listening to the birds chirp and enjoying a cup of coffee before an early morning swim. Like others have mentioned above, a grocery store run is on my today or tomorrow's list of things to do. Regular replenishment, mostly produce.

Mostly a lazy day ahead for me, but I have some excellent books to keep me company and checked out "The Mirror Has Two Faces" from the library - so something interesting to watch, as well. Might even pop some popcorn - one of my favorite snacks!

Life is very good these days in my little corner of the world. ☀️ 🏊‍♂️ 🛒 📚 🎞️ 🍿 :cool:

Hope all of you have a wonderful day!
 
Went to the doctor today for routine follow up and discovered I have shingles. The rash only started this morning and I thought since I’m at the doctor I’ll show it to her. I feel very lucky that I happened to be at the doctor anyway and caught it early
 
Should have stayed in bed this morning.🛌
Took my wife to her knee doctor and he told her no need to come back. She’s doing excellent.
Now the bed part. I was helping Thelma get into the car and set my iPhone on the roof of the car. Yep, I forgot it was there, drove off and remembered when we were almost home. Went back but no luck finding it. I just put it in lost mode so no one can open it…🥵

Ouch.....are you in pain with it yet ?
 
Today I had to call my bank , and get them to send me a new debit card. Mine ran out at the end of June, and normally they would have sent a replacement a week or 2 before.. but they didn't.. so now I hope it gets here before I leave for my trip...

I've just been packing.. I'm amazed at the amount of tech I'm taking...chargers, charging banks.. adaptor plugs, and so on... I'm only going for 5 days to the coast.. lol...

Spent about three hours with Ed at the dermatologist this AM. Back to house and pretty much ate anything that wasn’t nailed down. ::famished::

Sitting in the garden enjoying the breeze; it’s pleasantly cool here. When he gets home, son will mow the yard

Drinking tea to try to stay awake. Y’all have a good afternoon
 
welp just back from doc and happy with him, ortho doc specialist in wrist arm elbow, xrayed it real good, and ended u
give me a shot in the area where pain is at. so hoping for relief
in a day or so, go back in 6 weeks...it is hot as hades here, 96 with feels like 104temp.....wow....🥵
 
I just got home, recently. It's 96°F, with high humidity! 😲

I'm melting, and so are my groceries. I need to get them put away, then have dinner.

Tomorrow is going to be worse!!! They are forecasting a heat index of 117°F! At least I'm not going anywhere tomorrow.

The heat has worn me out, so I'm going to crash for a while.

Hello to everyone!

In almost 70 years in the working world, I've never left a job without notice, never left on bad terms and never thrown anybody under the bus on my way out. The only difference this time is that I'll leave without notice. Saturday will be my last shift. Woohoo and stuff. No. I haven't said a word and won't until Sir gets there Saturday morning. He's scheduled in at 5am. Pfffft. As if that will happen :rolleyes:If he's not there by 8, I'll just have to find somebody else to tell and let that person pass the word along.

Today has been spent thinking up exit lines. If y'all don't mind, please give me your best ideas.

I need a Bedazzler to Bedazzle "I Quit" on the backside of my Levi's. Y'all know how I love bling, but can the jewels be removed without damaging the fabric? :ROFLMAO:

It must have been a big straw that broke GG’s back. You’ve put up with lots. No point wasting your life doing that any more.
