More Wacky Weather

This morning after eating breakfast I took off to pick up my hedge trimmer head from Stark Street Lawn and Garden. They had called Friday while I was at the doctor's office and left a message that my hedge trimmer was ready to pick up.

I was worn out enough from the doctor's appointment that I decided to wait until today to pick it up. I had also forgotten to bring some checks that I needed to deposit at the credit union so I did that this morning after I finished at Starks.

I had gotten back home again before Kathleen got up so I stayed in my "leaving the house" clothes. Kathleen came downstairs after a while and so I went upstairs and put on my shorts and a tee shirt.

The mail finally got here so I picked it up and poured myself another cup of coffee and went through the mail at the kitchen table while Kathleen ate breakfast. After going through all the mail, I went into my office and reconciled one of my checking accounts and one of the credit cards that had come in the mail today.

Just as I was making myself lunch our neighbor called and invited Kathleen and myself over to her house for some pie and coffee. So when I finished lunch and Kathleen got dressed we went over there and visited for a few hours.

While we were there it started to hail and then that turned into a downpour. It rained for a half of an hour or so and then the sun came out for a while. I needed to get back home and as I was going there it started to drizzle once again.

Kathleen finally made it back home about 1830 and made some spaghetti for me and she reheated up the left-over T-bone that she had not finished last night. She still did not finish it tonight, but there was only a little bit left so I will use it in my eggbeater omelet tomorrow.

The weather is suppose to be warming up as the weekend approaches; I sure hope that it does as it would be nice to have good weather to go walking alone the beach this weekend.

When are you leaving for the beach?

Friday morning or early afternoon...hopefully. We will only be there through Sunday afternoon.

I do not think that this place has any internet WiFi access so I probably will not be blogging for a few days.

Are you still working or have you finally had to quit?

I had to resign as of April 4, but the Board of Trustees is trying to help me get re-instated part-time. I am enjoying the glorious weather while I am off. I have not had any time off during the Spring for many years.

If I do not get re-instated, so be it. It will take me years to clean up 16 years of neglect that the house has suffered while I have worked. I am enjoying the extra time I have with Mom, so I am just taking it one day at a time for now.

I would like to work part-time so I can continue to contribute to my retirement, but I am going to let the Lord lead me. Right now the slower pace is doing me the world of good.

I hope you have good weather at the beach.

Love to all,
Sue
