Ending the Week Well

The Ridge

It was 5:20 when I first opened my eyes on Friday, July 17th. Bill was up, getting washed and Gibbs was on the bed, waiting. He does his exercises before he gets up too. 🐶 Then he goes out for his walkabout with Daddy and comes back to bed. 

Good morning!
Last night's sun was hazy
in its beauty.

Bill and Jazz left at 6:30 and Gibbs and I got up just before 7. I gathered up the bed sheets, bath towels and quilts off our chairs and took them in for washing. The Mat wasn't too bad, nor was it too busy. 

And not much different as it
rose this morning.

There was one loud chatty fellow but thankfully he was with his brother so I didn't have to be his listening post. 🤭 I brought my items home to hang, thinking of whether or not that was wise. Hmm, the smoke is not noticeable for me today so that's what I did.

A cloudy/gray sky but
they still dried very quickly.

Our grounding sheet should not be in direct sun or in the dryer, so it was perfect that we had overcast skies for the morning and much of the afternoon. That worked out! It was feeling cooler today, so we opened more windows, the humidity seems to be diminished.

At 10, the bnb guests had checked out and I was cleaning for Robin. I took some cheese and a yogourt along with my coffee and found the house to be in decent shape. 4 guests for 2 nights and it was left good enough to get a nice review. Robin always likes to do that.

No, I didn't forget.
Two today and one that didn't
complete the action.

I left there around 12:30 and took the back way home. Bill had messaged just as I was leaving Williamsford that he was home, having his lunch and going to cut grass. All our obligations with cutting other grasses are fulfilled so he was going to take care of our mess. (teehee) It was bugging him.

I sat with Gibbs while he went to do that and then sat at my table. First, I reposted a notice on FB that I was holding another craft sale on Sunday. The weather tomorrow is not looking good but Sunday looks perfect. Not too hot, not smoky and a great day for a sale!

Besides my pictures of Gibbs,
this is my favourite today.

I brought the bedding in off the line and when Bill finished cutting, after his shower, we flipped the mattress. That's always a chore in our small space but so is making the bed sometimes!! We try and do it once a year, if we remember. 

Speaking of who......he goes
out and promptly stretches out in the grass.
No one came to rub his belly,
so he gets up.
Love to know what he thinks.

Our neighbours, Dot and Gord, arrived back at their home this afternoon so we took a run over just to welcome them but no one was home. We'll catch them at another time. It was 4:15 so we just relaxed, discussed supper and bided our time until we had to leave for C the A.

We both slipped our jeans on and hopped on Jazz. I broke the cardinal rule (my rule) and wore my jean jacket instead of my leather one. I didn't wear my motorcycle boots, instead the ones I used to dance in. It was warm and it was going to be warm at 7 when we came home. No excuses, that's what I did.

At a yard sale last weekend,
the little chalkboard sign on the 
left. It can sit on my table on
Sunday.

We didn't win, no one found the Ace of spades, but we enjoyed ourselves while there. When we left, I had 2 invitations to attend future 'events'. One is a bbq at President Lion Doug's home next Friday after our draw and the second....I'll let you know about that one later! 

Robin asked me to see if
I could find flowers for the
kitchen table and main bedroom.
My Tiger lilies were just waiting to
be picked!

I mentioned to a couple of people that I'll be behind the bank on Sunday but everyone is so busy. 🤷‍♀️ We were home shortly after 7 and since I hadn't eaten a proper lunch, I was quite hungry. Hungry enough to have some of the leftover spaghetti & meatballs. Bill helped eat it, cleaned up dishes and went to the Hangar. It's been a while since he's had the time!

With her lavender, Queen Ann's
Lace and Elderberry flowers
conpleted this bouquet.

I enjoyed the day and made some $ at the same time. We reached a moderate 25.56C/78F with a nice breeze most of the day. I'm cleaning for Robin tomorrow since it is going to be a wash out - if the forecasters know anything. The town's street sale will likely be postponed to next week.

I don't usually eat the noodles
but was so hungry tonight - I did.
(breaking another cardinal rule?)
Good night!

Thank you for your visit!
