The Ridge
On Monday, June 27th it was like we stepped into another dimension. One where it was the early days of spring. Good grief! From having the a/c on yesterday to needing long pants, socks and shoes again this morning. It was 12C/55F when we got up. Bill was up before 6 getting ready as he had to drive to Mildmay for 7:30. It’s about 40 minutes. Ptooties will be his transportation for a few days at least. 😊
I remembered to look for Moonflowers ♥ |
I was up
and out the door shortly after 7 and went directly to Foodland for bread and
then The Water Store to fill a bottle. Oh! That reminds me that the bottle is
still in Black Beauty! (lightbulb) The Mat wasn’t too bad and there were 3
customers in and out while I was there for my hour. Back home, I drank the ‘to-go’
cup of tea that I left sitting on the kitchen counter and had some cereal.
These are the kind of touch ups
the Sierra needsThis one on the back passenger door
has been sanded
For an
hour Gibbs and I sat together, cuddling, until it was time for a quick walk
outside for him and then I left for M’s around the corner. I thought I would be
working on the Datsun but no, another client had brought their 2014 GMC Sierra
pick up for a few touch-up jobs. They seem like small jobs but when you have to
sand the spots, prime them and THEN paint the whole doors, it’s not so small.
It is quick work, put it that way and M says ‘easy money’. 😊
Breakfast quesadilla
I have leftovers for tomorrow
We should
be able to get it done in a few days. He’s coming on Wednesday or Thursday, I
think, to see how we’re coming along. It’s a beautiful truck. The unfortunate
thing is that the 2 bays were full with the ’91 Chev and the ’82 Datsun so I
had to work on it outside. I’ve been spoiled with the heat we’ve had so I wasn’t
dressed for it. However, I’d rather it be cool like this than with the humidity.
You haven't seen the Gibbs pose for a while Here he is ♥ |
I
borrowed one of M’s plaid hoodies and set to work. I managed to accomplish a
lot without once checking the time. Before I knew it, two doors on river’s side
were almost done and he said it was 12:30, time to go. Time really flew today
so I must remember not to look at my watch next time. 😉 I like the 3 hour shifts so glad that is what he’s going
with these days. I left and came home to the little bum, who is always happy to
see Bill and I.
With my
shower done, I planned supper and rearranged the canned goods cupboard. It got
really bounced around from our trip to London. It always does when we travel so
it’s nothing new. There are a couple more cupboards that need to be
straightened but that’s for another day. I’m expecting a Norwex parcel to
arrive today, I’ve had 2 notices saying so, but when we walked to the mailbox,
Bill got his parcel instead. Hmm. Maybe mine comes Fedex or something else, can’t
recall from previous shipments.
Rule: no Gibbs at the table until we're done eating Well, we're done eating but dishes
weren't removed
Bill came
home just before 5 and we relaxed until it was time for supper. Tonight, we had
beef stroganoff with corn on the cob. It was delicious and very filling. No dessert
for me! We loaded the dishwasher; Bill made his lunch and that was our day. The
sun came out around 6:45 and that was the nicest it has been all day. We
reached a high of 15C/59F which felt colder than that because of the winds.
Oh-oh, Daddy says, we're going to be in a blog tonight. 💕 Good night! |
This has been
a good day. Thank you for stopping by.
Daddy hugs ….. you can tell he loves it!!!
ReplyDeleteDaddy or Gibbs? Both!! ♥

DeleteWe've had similar weather, heat for a couple of days, then cool again. Today we're expecting showers with a high of 24C. I'll take it!
ReplyDeleteThat's what we got today, Tuesday.
DeleteSweet pictures.
ReplyDeleteGibbs is such a diva (can a male be a diva?). Love the way he sits.
ReplyDeleteI have heard via our weather people the summer weather is supposed to be very unsettled, high one day or two and then abnormally cool.
God bless.
Ha ha, that's so cute!! Well, I do agree with you. A diva with a personality like no other! ♥
DeleteGreat summer weather, eh? Good grief.
Boy you were back in it! Nice to have only worked 3 hours at M's when you can get it! Cute pics of Gibbs and Bill. :) Dinner looks yummy, nice way to end the day!
ReplyDeleteYes, we did jump back into work but 3 hours is perfect for me, 4 counting the Mat. :)
DeleteIt was chilly yesterday!
ReplyDeleteIt sure was!! Nonsense!
