Thrift Store? Not Today!

Park Place Resort, Q, Az

On Friday, Feb. 18^th we all got up together and Gibbs and I went for our walk. It was another lovely day coming our way but it sure started out cool at 37F/3C. When we returned, we each had our breakfast and that was when Marilynne called from back home.

A pretty morning is afoot

Bill’s step Mom, my Mother-in-law, is someone we keep in touch with pretty regularly. The conversation is always great unless it turns to Covid, vaccines or protests, so we try to avoid the subjects we don’t agree on. 😊 It was nice to catch up with her though and let her know how we’re doing in every other aspect. 

Little wiggle bum leads the way

Bill left for the flying field and, around 10, I wandered over to work on the puzzle. I took my coffee and left Gibbs in charge. I made great progress while listening to the chatter in the office. Not much going on today, the co-hosts were in today while Patty and Rick drove to Lake Havasu City to pick up a new dryer for the laundry room. Having 3 will be nice for them.

When I returned, I took the opportunity to check online to see what the hours for the Salvation Army store in Q were. I had planned to go after Bill got back from flying. That soon changed when I read that they are only open Tues. to Thurs. What the?? That’s just silly, not being open on a weekend even. ☹ So, next best thing was to dust the Suite. A chore that badly needed doing.

It's not a good picture, Gibbs was barking
which had them on the move

I asked Bill if he’d vacuum for me so by the time we finished, it looked mucho better. We made our own sandwiches for lunch and planned supper. I added to my afghan and then walked back to the puzzle. When I returned at 4:30, I took Gibbs to the dog park for half hour. We were alone so we don’t stay so long. Instead of a tea this afternoon, I had a diet root beer for a change. Refreshing.

Kind of a typical photo, huh?

For supper, we had fish and chips. Bill turned our power back on and once the convection oven was preheated for the fish, he started the Fry Daddy for the fries. I’m still trying to be ‘better’ at eating, so opted out of fries and steamed some asparagus instead. Supper was ready at 6:45 and it was delicious! I adorned my plate with some lemon, olives and avocado.

I missed the sun going down but the sky was pretty

This was a wonderful supper. ♥

We loaded the dishwasher and I took my laptop upstairs to finish my blog while Bill watched his Friday night movies. Gibbs bounced back and forth not knowing who he wanted to share his time with. In the end, downstairs won as it was cooler. ♥ Mama’s boy? Ha ha This was a good day and now our home is clean again.

Gibbs loves to play on the bed when one of us 
is up there

Always the entertainer.
Good night!

Thank you for stopping around.
