My sister & I got the place ready for a birthday party tomorrow for a friend's 85th. She & her husband (88) & her sister & 5 other friends will be here for dinner tomorrow.
And (unlike previous get-togethers), I don't care if it rains; I had a new roof, skylights, rain gutters & downspouts this month. :giggle:
 
Relaxing from yesterday. Probably go grocery shopping. Grand daughter (13) had a great art show yesterday where she sold everything except one little $17 painting. The show was for the art students, arranged by her art teacher. She was kind of concerned that the other kids might not like her because everyone was ohing and ahing over her paintings. Hey, that goes with the territory. Hope your Sunday is great.
 
Planning next major project. Water line replacement from water meter to connection to our home. Want to bring system up to code so will need about 30 feet of Pex 3/4" water line, a vacuum pressure break a pressure control valve, various copper fittings & copper tubing. I'll need at least 3 ball shut off valves because I'm going to separate the irrigation system feeding the back of our home from the front. Reason if there is ever a leak front or back I reroute water.

Labor to dig will be hired. That part is more work than I want to do. I plan on taking pics just so I have a record of what is done.

Once complete my wife wants a 12' long 2' wide planter. Something easy for a change.

But for fun today out to eat & gambol.
 
Silly me.
Thought we were having nice sunny weather, till the weatherman told me differently.

It's been windy and lightly raining here yesterday and possibly today. The wind is making my attic fan turn and squeal.
Driving me crazy, I hope my neighbors can't hear it!

So, I 've been indoors. I did step out yesterday and the wind gave me a bit of a headache.
Will be watching movies all day and doing some wash.
 
Looking forward to cooking some butter chicken with my middle son later today.

Enjoying the windows being open and the house having a chance to air out from the “stuffy” winter air.

Please pray for my dear Prince Among Men. He’s got a bad cold at the very least and sounds like a halfback when he coughs 😔

We had these little guys last night. My first home cooked meal with my son and his family in two years.
 
We had one of our Great Granddaughters (10 years old) stay with us yesterday through this morning. I wish we had 1/2 her Energy. We spent a good hour going through the house and finding all the toys she played with, but it was fun having her here. When school ends for the year, we will have her, and the others a few days during the Summer.
 
I finished my taxes last night then agonized over finances until the wee hours, I think I should try to find a free online course in retirement money investment management since I keep being surprised at how poorly I've invested (apparently I never looked at fund expense ratios). I probably should have used a financial planner but they seem to be very expensive. Also figured out that half of what I thought were dividends were capital gains, so I suppose I can't count on those re-occurring like dividends?

Consequently I got to bed super late and slept until noon. Went outside to do my first springtime trimming/weeding and wound up with my pinky finger impaled by the longest splinter of my life. I plan to call the doctor's office in the morning to ask what their records show for what year I had a tetanus shot.

This morning I serviced the water softener and changed out the whole house filter. This afternoon I moved the T-Bird, and the mower outside to make room to rip lumber for trimming out my interior doors. In a few minutes going out for my walk while the sun is out. Beautiful day here today.View attachment 211211View attachment 211212View attachment 211213View attachment 211214
