A Bit of a Busy Friday

The Ridge

On Friday, July 18th I
as awake at 5:45 and seemed to be wide awake. I did go up to bed last night at 9:30, didn't even get my blog finished. I slept well but I know the hours were spent in dreams, one after the other it seemed.

Good morning!

Because I was not going to sleep anymore, I got up at 6:15 and came downstairs. Bill left at his normal time and I made my tea. It's nice on the mornings that I don't have to go anywhere at 7. 😀 I sat at my laptop and finished my post before moving on to my winter book.

It was coming along nicely and I was still sitting in my loungewear (fancy word for sweat pants and hoody) at 9:40 when M called for a ride to town. I knew it was a possibility but he wanted to wait until I was done cleaning the bnb. 

The morning was chilly, 9C/49F, but the sky was clear and sunny. I can see that my grass needs to be cut but befoe 10, it is so wet with dew that it would be a challenge with my mower. Robin asked me to pick up cash from her place to pay Bill so I did that on my way to Williamsford at 11.

Nice to see a clear sky and smell
the fresh air, even though chilly.
It didn't last and it warmed up to 24C/76F.

The house took me longer to clean today, for one reason or another, and on my way home, at 1:15, I dropped the garbage and recycling bags off at Robin's. She also asked me to leave the 3 quilts and their shams at her place to wash. 

I picked M up at 2 and did a 45 minute run into town. Just the Beer Store and Foodland today and I was home. I did not feel like cutting grass at this late time of day, I felt too tired aka lazy. 😂 I'd bought a big pack of pork ribs so split them up for the freezer. 3 nice size portions with lots of meat. 

I love our pineapple corer but it hasn't been
used for a long time. Get a load of that
price. It was on the sales rack in produce.

Bill was home by 3:30 tonight and went over to the Acreage to get water. I just sat and finished my book until he returned for a quick snooze.We hopped on Jazz before 6 and drove to the Curling Club for the draw. 

Riding on Jazz into town did
not require leather, just helmets
and long pants. 

Well, well, well, Bill's #37 was drawn but it was someone else's ticket. Too bad, because that was where the Ace of Spades was hiding. The other fellow won $5,425. It's over for another 4 weeks.

Supper when we returned was toasted tomato sandwiches with ice cream for a follow up. The weather has been perfect all day, not too hot, full sun and a slight breeze off and on. This is how we wish it would stay.  What a great day!

Not from tonight, but on Aug. 14, 2016
we had this gorgeous sunset.

Good night!

Thank you for your visit.
