Staying Home, Nothing Much Kind of Day

We were up and at ‘em on Saturday, Dec. 16^th by 7:30. I think we both slept well. Bill had a crazy dream that he relayed to me while sitting with our morning cuppas. It was a tad breezy but quite cloudy and 50F so I lazed around until about 10 before going for my walk. By that time the sun was making appearances and my tea had settled.

this is me taking myself for a walk

I bundled up after noticing that Bill was writing a post. If you follow Bill’s On Our Way blog, you know that is rare these days. I don't doubt he feels I write so much he doesn’t have to update you so often! Anyway, I’m glad he is writing and to get out of his hair, I took my walk. The wind was cool at first but after walking for 15 minutes it was time to make the climb back up Palo Verde Blvd. This is a workout and I was working it alright.

The clouds were playing with the sun
and apparently the plane flying over too

 I returned after a mile and a half, put the puzzle back in the box and made myself another tea. Bill had a second coffee on the go. It was a good day to have bacon and eggs for breakfast actually so I prepared that. Once dishes were cleaned up I took my book and sat outside for a while. 

Looks like a prickly pear but funny shaped leaves

Clemson and I sat outside for a short time and he was restless and indicated that he wanted to come inside. The sun was making brief appearances and kept me quite warm while reading my book so I stayed out on my own. It has been a funny day, first clouds, then full sun then wispy clouds skirting around. Now after 3 it is full clouds again. If they got rain here, I’d be thinking it might rain. Hahahaha.

An interesting mailbox that I missed the other day

So, we’ve been inside, Bill working on his post and me helping a bit with pictures. We’ve planned grilled sausages for supper with leftover dressing and a veggie. Bill walked across the street to chat with the neighbor with the 5^th wheel (whom by the way returned yesterday with his trailer and parked in the same spot).

And for a while the clouds were losing

We had put the recyclables out with the garbage Friday morning at 7:30 and they are still sitting there. Not sure if we missed it or what, hence Bill’s visit. He had a nice chit chat and somehow I missed the truck. What the heck time does it come? Oh well, Bill brought it back up and we’ll deal with it before we leave. We’ve managed to top both bins up to overflowing.

It is the only one I got and I must admit,
it is a beauty

Bill lit the Weber Q at 5 and I prepared my spaghetti squash and warmed up the dressing inside the Suite.

When dinner was ready, it didn’t take long to clean it up. It seemed like a long time since breakfast at 10:30. We finished the dishes, I caught a  picture of the sun going down in between the clouds before the day ended. This was a nice quiet day and I hope you had a good one too whatever you got into.

Thank you for reading tonight. Feel free to comment.
