Taking it as it Comes, Fun and Games

Park Place RV Park

On Thursday, Dec. 29^th Gibbs didn’t get Bill up until 7 am so we all got to sleep in, not just me. 😊 It was still a bit dark and with heavy clouds that meant no sun yet. Well, if at all. There was more rain overnight although we didn’t hear it. Just the evidence wet gravel and the tonneau over was damp. I didn’t go out with Gibbs until 8, and even then we didn’t go far.

This is my next puzzle
and my first picture of the day

Bill left soon after we returned. It was a lazy feeling I had so I didn’t even go for my singular walk. I sat with Gibbs and read my book, which is quite a good mystery/detective-type story. Plus, I felt chilled and bumped the furnace on for a quick warm up while I drank my tea. Tea, which now I am enjoying again with the heavy cream, coconut oil and collagen.

And a good head start

I left for the clubhouse at 9:15 and Susan was just folding up the pool table cover. Patti couldn’t play today with extra managerial duties so there were just the 4 of us. We still had a good time and played for 2 ½ hours. Susan’s husband, John, has mentioned more than once that he’d like to see something like it for the men and today suggested a co-ed game.

My walk back from the clubhouse was
under an array of beautiful cloud formations

They looked to me for the decision because it is ‘Pat’s game’, which is a respect I wasn’t expecting, and I said if we can work out how to include more than 6 players, I’m up for it. What about couples with each team alternating with the shooter and 7 cards dealt instead of 5? I’d have players draw names or cards to pick partners rather than have a husband and wife team play together. Some don’t have a significant other. So, we’ll see how it follows through.

Looking across the desert

Bill and I had bacon and eggs for lunch and then I went to start the puzzle at 1:30. I found this one at The Mission Store back home and loved the picture and cute metal box. No one showed up to help but I got the border done and quite a bit of the boy on the tractor. This one won’t take long, I don’t think. Back home, I had a cup of tea and sat with my boys before supper.

Gibbs and I went for an afternoon walk
and the clouds were even more dramatic

We had hamburger helper with mixed vegetables and it was a nice hearty meal for a cooler day. The temperature didn’t get above 63F/17C but with no sun and a bit of a breeze, it felt cooler than that. We loaded the dishwasher and settled in for the evening.

I love how this picture turned out

Gibbs is being a little imp this evening. Even before supper, he started with grabbing my shoes, our tea towel which hangs on the freezer bar and my slippers from the bedroom. He is doing it all on purpose, for attention, and then looks at us with the item in front of him waiting for our reaction. When we don’t respond, he grabs it and runs at us in a ‘zoomie’. How can you not laugh at that? ♥

Supper tonight

We watched a movie together and I turned more pages in my book. This was a good day. I hope wherever you are that the weather is good or at least better than it was and the snow is melting!

Here he is, our little 'imp'/'monster' etc. etc. 
We keep saying 'it's a good thing we love you so much'
and 'it's a good thing you're so darn cute!' 💗
good night y'all!

Thank you for popping by.
