A Quiet Day

 Park Place RV Park

On Saturday, Dec. 6th we were all up before 7. I felt better than I have for a few mornings but still did my stretches. It was a cold  morning, only 42F/5C again. Bill had his breakfast and I had my tea made before he left for the field.

Good morning!
A blurry photo on my walk with Gibbs
but lovely clear skies. 

I had nothing on my plate today, so I was free to do whatever I wanted. Gee, that is kind of what all my days are like. Before I go further, a heartfelt thank you to all who have commented on my last post. I just felt it was time to share something, near and dear to me, with all of you. 

Some day you may need to know where I'm coming from, if I disappear for a while. I pray that it will not be for a very long time. On to today. I had my shower, grumbled at the scales as usual, and when my hair was dry enouogh (it never takes long), I took Gibbs for his walk.

We were talking about these prehistoric
looking bugs at Happy Hour yesterday.
Lo and behold, here is another straggler.
It is a Western Conifer Seed Bug
NOT a stink bug. I knew it didn't stink
when I killed it! 😂
He went down the toilet with all the rest.
Then in the shower, a straggler Asian Beetle. LOL

I could tell he was not overly comfortable walking but wouldn't stop. He kept pushing forward. By the time we returned home, I'd decided to reapply coconut oil (until I get the Vetericyn) and put his socks on. They are just so darn cute on him!

I went to the puzzle around 10:30 with my coffee and worked on it until noon hour. Bill was home with not the best news but his plane was repairable at least. Kind of like Ken's yesterday. These planes are hardy and so are the pilots!

The puzzle is coming along nicely.

I worked on finishing up the greeting cards, still waiting for something from Amazon (Monday) so I can get them off in the mail. I took Gibbs for a walk around 4ish and he seemed better at walking. Bill was working on his new shiny lime and white plane.

I had Rosy air fry chicken thighs while I cooked squash for me and Stove Top stuffing on the side. I'll have a bit, because I like it and this one has cranberries in the mix. LOL Supper was very good and my 'guinea pig' recipe to use up yogourt was very good!

These are our children's family groupings,
all represented on the tree.
My family, Bridgette and Patrick
and their boys. 💖

Bill's family,
Yvonne and her boys,
Charlotte and her girls,
Krystal and Jess with their
millionaire families.
😍

The 4 Ingredient Yogourt Cake came out like a souffle of sorts and I will probably make it again to use up the other container of yogourt that is in the fridge. We watched the 2019 version of Midway and then cleaned up the few pots and turned the dishwasher on.

Supper was good
The 4 ingredients?
Eggs, corn starch, Splenda & yogourt.

We reached a higher temperature of 70F/18C under clear sunny skies. We could feel the change and will enjoy the upcoming days in the mid 70's/20's. Bring it on! 

Back home, Durham's Christmas
parade was on last night.
Our Lion's friends, Roz and Brian
took it to heart and dressed up.
Cute!
Good night!

Thank you for stopping by.
