September 2019.... Please Share your Day...

today is lovely sept day' warmish sunny' light breeze blowing '

all 3 cats are on the garden swing sun bathing with legs apart -no shame my animals...;)..
washing dryed -folded and put away' no ironing needed ,went did big shop 'spent far to much on food '
saw seasoned prawns- thought must have them -but not for sharing haha 'home now on here .. dinner time soon .
 

Let's see....there are groceries to pick up later-the curb side dealie at Walmart-and I texted my son about a movie I want to watch with the grandbabies the next time they are here. (I was approved!) I learned to use my new water pick. My coffee is cold, needs heated up. I think I drink more cold coffee than hot. I'm still trying to sort crafts. Blech.
 
.....and a couple more pics... ..

Do new Balance do memory foam insoles? :)

Holly...NB has what they call their own "cushioning foam" insert. Love it. The difference I've experienced is best overall support - comfortable firmer support that you can adjust by simply loosening or tightening the laces. If you get the leather ones, great rain protection. Plus, only shoes I've had for years - and I do mean years - without them falling apart. For some reason I think some where in a shoe factory some robot presses a "dead zone" button for Nike and others - then your shoes rot!

We normally walk 4 or 5 miles a day!

Have had Sketchers - some styles ok others yuck. Like all NB, even the backless sneakers.
 
This morning around 8:45 I walked over to my close friends,Marcia&Dave's house for our usual weekly chat.
Marcia was in the living room the family dog Aker was eating his breakfast in kitchen.Dave was still sleeping ,so we took Aker on his 1st walk of the day.I had the leash,we took him for a 2 block walk.He was more interested in sniffing than checking out squirrels or other dogs. It was a nice walk
It became more breezy as the day progressed,but that wasn't going to stop me from taking my afternoon walk
 
It was a glorious sunny day, 80 deg f.. so hubs and I went for lunch at the very old but one of the very few left, traditional country pubs in a nearby village ( our favourite pub because it's still owned by the same family after 50 years and sells all traditional local brewed ales.., No all day football on big screen TV's, No music, No gambling machines, this is a family owned pub where they know your name, and what you drink, and they make you a doorstep sandwich or and all day breakfast or a traditional stilton cheese ploughmans salad from fresh local ingredients , and you can sit indoors and chew the fat with the locals about the price of hay or feed, or the cost of of the latest farm machinery part.. or outdoors in the leafy green garden right next to the horses in the next field , in the glorious peace and quiet with just the country folks drinking real ale or locally brewed ciders ..no youths, and rarely even children, no playground for the kids or anything to keep them occupied so it's rare to see anyone bringing children there , ..a real grown ups pub of which there are so few left today and which are missed so badly since pubs became gastropubs where adults get no respite from screaming kids, , and one we visit regularly particularly in the summer...

Then we went on to the Garden centre, and bought some beautiful purple Hebe Grethe plants (I'll take a pic tomorrow in the daylight)... and a sack of Niger seeds for the bird feeders..

Then to the Mall where I bought new knee length leather boots for winter, and a couple of long sleeve jumpers..

Then late afternoon for delicious latte at the next village pub, to sit out on the decking on the comfy sofas reading the papers... just a blissful day...

My grandson has a wide foot. He loves NB, Nikes are way too narrow.
 
Bush hogged the upper meadow, middle meadow, lower meadow, and the eastern meadow today. (wheew, I need less land) :). Went to use the backhoe and discovered the front wheel bearing had gone out, so I had to pull it apart and order parts. Decided to pull the starter and clean it while the machine is down. Finally finished the wife's trike (carb kit and valve adjustment), and it runs good. (happy wife= happy life) (y) ;) Jumped in the pool and skimmed the bottom while cooling off. Oh yeah, also mixed some bug juice and sprayed for spiders. I did however, leave the garden spider at poolside.

Wow, you had a busy day, SD! 🏊‍♀️
 
My daughter does that too...she gets annoyed when I tell stories about when she was little!! I don't know why?


Today I cleared out 2 smallish drawers which hold my costume jewellery.. necklaces, bracelets etc. I kept quite a bit of it, but costume jewellery does date quite quickly , so I thought it was time to clear it out. I couldn't believe the weight when I picked up the bag that I'd put them in (nothing is huge or heavy individually)...but the bag weighed 4 and a half pounds!! Wow!! :oops:
 
Beautiful sunny day today but I stayed home! I got the clothes washed and dried. I washed all the windows upstairs and down, including the front and back doors.. Then washed my car, , , then put the hose and sprinkler on in the garden while I was making dinner, of Root veg mash, broccoli, Brussel sprouts, Yorkshire puddings, and roast beef and gravy!!...I'm full as a tick, so I'm gonna sit here until my back stops hurting!! :coffee:
 
Didn't get a good night sleep last night so I'm half out of it today. Have been worried that my dog may be getting sick again like last December. Her stool has been changing. I'm keeping a good eye on her and have a supply of frozen chicken and rice just in case she needs it.

Tried to purchase a few things online and my debit card was declined. I messaged the bank to ask them why as I have enough money in my account. I'm waiting to hear back from them. I depend on my debit card being useable.

One good thing is it's a beautiful day today in the 70s. The humidity is going down and I'm so glad for that.
 
brushed the 3 cats outside in the morning ' hung washing out ;got myself ready took car to be cleaned,
called in a village shop and nxt door is a small garden centre ;had a peke round brought some flowers' plus 2kitchen plants for the window - did lunch - left hubby still trying to wire a wall plug in the wall' must be his 3rd day trying hahah
so keep well away from the air in the room lol ..sat and watched a bit of tv ' very wintry day today 'fire on .
 
Oh yuk what a day @Ruthanne , hopefully little pooch isn't too poorly and can buck up with some love and good care...

It's so irritating when your debit card is declined for no obvious reason..I had the same thing happen to me at the weekend. I'd spent money in the Mall, and then I went to spend just £10 in the grocery store and it was declined several times.., Fortunately I had cash on me , but the cashier said that sometimes if the card had been used a few times in a short space of time, the bank can put a stop on t, but I've never had that happen unless I was abroad..
