On Friday, Dec. 9th, Bill stayed home. He had a plane engine he was sending out for repair (fingers crossed) and he wanted to get it packaged up and sent away this morning. Gibbs and I walked but because it was feeling quite chilly, 37F/3C, I made my tea back home before heading out for my longer walk. 😊 Brrr!
Gibbs wore his sweater on this morning |
Our shadows are kind of cool! |
I was dressed warm enough, even with my bare feet and loafers, but my ears, chin and face were cold. It was closer to 9:30 when I tried it again and found it to be quite a bit nicer with the heat of the sun warming those ‘parts’.
there's the moon, not quite as pretty this morning, huh? |
Trailer for 'sale or rent' Ha ha, this has been dropped across from the truck stop |
It started out to be a calm morning with clear blue skies |
I walked in a different direction and followed the sidewalk towards Main St. I was surprised that it was closer than I thought! At Discount Solar, I looked both ways and when I saw Dollar General also on the corner, turned around the same way I came.
At the corner of Main St. I turned back towards home |
That will be a nice walk one day when I’m looking for something different to do. I love poking in the $ stores when I’m not on a time limit. Back home, I decided to re-type my Book List in One-Note on my laptop. Bill got me set up with a table in the program and I was off! This past summer, I tried to sync my list from a Word document and as much as it worked, I wasn’t able to make any changes. That meant starting over.
What a funny looking car/van/truck? |
I had a
lot of pages so with over half of the books typed, we had lunch before I went
back at it to get ‘er done. When I’d finished that, I walked over to the
clubhouse. I was finally getting somewhere with the puzzle so hated to leave at
4 when the office was closing. However, as much as I could have stayed, Suz
turned the light off and it was connected to the light over my table. LOL They
added a new wall and made changes in there so I guess they never thought of
that.
Yes, I'm a bit embarassed to see what crud collects in the bottom of our trays so this was a good move Notice the different lengths? |
Yesterday, I bought to 11.5" w silverware trays and they fit perfectly! Both the same length leaving more room at the back for longer utensils |
Yes, I'm going to show you my daily updates They're starting to look like crayons. 😂 |
For supper, Bill started grilling pork chops at 5:30. We have Fire Country to watch tonight at 7, AZ time, so wanted to be ready to watch it. I’ll still be working on my blog but I can see the tv from my spot.
This has been a great day. This morning, I extended a wish to my girlfriend in London for a Happy Birthday. I hope she received her card on time. She has been a dear friend for many years, meeting at the School Board where we both worked.♥
Our afternoon walk, no sweater although it didn't get any warmer than 63F/17C |
I remember seeing a van like that around Pembroke for the longest time. I think it said Reg Smallpiece on the side of it. He had a junk store on the main street for a long long time.
ReplyDeleteInteresting. i was trying to be discreet taking the picture. :)
DeleteWe aren’t as cold in the morning, we were 44f yesterday around 7 am but it’s Dec and no snow! I’m wearing a lot of jeans and hoodies this year. That wind is cold.

I need to dig out my ear covering but I did buy a used hoodie today at a garage sale!
DeleteHey you got all winter to finish this puzzle :-) Maybe the park has a table lamp you could plug in when they turn off the lights? Isn't it a good feeling having that drawer with cutlery all neatly organized. Looks good.
ReplyDeleteHa ha, I have too many puzzles to do this winter, gotta get this one out of the way - soon!
DeleteI talked to Suz about the lights and she didn't realize it 'left me in the dark'. She made a note to leave that one switch alone at night. ;)
There is a talent to putting those puzzles together!!! I do love a neat drawer ... it looks great!
ReplyDeleteThanks Nancy. :)
DeleteGoodness, I would think 37F is very chilly for that area. Did our polar vortex make it that far south? We're warming up slightly today, hooray!
ReplyDeleteHave a great day!
It isn't surprising here for morning temps to be low - just not freezing. It is winter here after all.
DeleteThank you!
