What are you doing today?

Apparently I am babysitting my neighbors dog who has again escaped from his yard. 🤦🏻‍♀️ Followed me home so he is tied up in the backyard, with my husband who is not tied up, and both of them are sitting on their asses doing nothing. Life in the hood 😂
 

We went for two interesting walks today to explore. My husband was happy to meet other fishing enthusiasts and get some tips. One person my husband met today while getting propane just happened to know some family members and friends of his. Later we looked at some nice boats including a catamaran. There were some really cute wood carvings too.

@Keesha are you in an area with very large tide changes ? When we lived in York, Maine the tide was 10 feet (I think? Been a long time).

Today I am taking my lovely lady out to a nice birthday lunch at an outdoor restaurant. She is now 71 and I do like to show her off. We never did figure out what she would like for a gift, so I guess that some sustained hugging, lunch and flowers will have to do.

It was a beautiful day and we had a nice shady table neat the pool. Unfortunately, our eyes were much bigger than our tummies and we brought home enough food for two more meals each. We will not do that again. The food was great and the quiet atmosphere was rather romantic.

We hiked in that area years ago, and the difference between high tide and low tide was astounding to me.

That must have been wonderful.


Well with 100 billion tons of water twice a day, it should be spectacular.

Here’s a time lapse video of the 46.5 foot tide in the Bay of Fundy





Biggest tide change is about 17 metres which is about the height of a 5 story building. On a flood tide, 160 billion tons of water flows into the Bay of Fundy; more than 4 times the estimated combined flow of all the worlds fresh water rivers during the same 6 hour interval.

It’s impressive !
 
Slept a good deal of the day--I really needed it, I had gotten giddy from lack of sleep. Took doggie for a walk. Removed all the coverings from the AC unit and tested it to see how it's working now and it's still working well. I turned it off because it didn't get overly hot in here and not a lot of humidity today. I'm prepared now though!
 
Thursday - not very exciting, just my weekly shopping day. I don't do my daily walk on Thursdays, because I make sure I get a good walk doing grocery shopping instead. So I park the car a long way from the entry (all uphill) then a good walk to one end of the mall to one supermarket, get a trolley full and take it back to the car and unload. Back again to the other end of the mall to another supermarket which has better meat (to buy my lamb cutlets and Scotch fillet steak) and special things the other supermarket doesn't have. Then back to the car to unload again and home. Very mundane but grateful I can do this when so many can't. I forgot to mention that it wouldn't be possible without my two hip replacements, one in 2017 and the other in 2019. Without new hips, I would be still hobbling around.

We go past a mall,, would ask hubby to drop me off,,,but afraid he will forget to pick me up on return trip. :sneaky: :eek:
 
Still laughing on the “joke” I played on my daughter. Sent her a picture of her dad and the neighbors dog with the words, trying again?. Of course, she thought I’d bought a new poodle, as he’s a poodle mix. She knows we can’t handle two dogs. After several hours she finally texted “surprised you got another one”.

Could ”hear” her disapproval coming through loud and clear. 😂

Texted back. “You think you’re surprised; imagine my neighbor’s surprise when he read my note that I had his dog.” 😂😂😂

Dog back home, daughter relieved, and I am still laughing
 
Driving! Well...parked at the moment. Nine days out from surgery, all stitches are out and I have no rotator cuff restrictions! Dr said listen to what pain level tells me. Ordered four weeks of PT but said I'll likely meet their goals quicker than that.

Headed to my sister's to rest before her daughter's - precious niece-- graduation tonight. She's got honors a mile long and scholarships to cover college, housing and a semester abroad.
