The End of a Cool and Wet Week

It was dreary when I got up this morning and it was dreary all day long; I do not think that the temperature got much above fifty degrees all day. What a change from a couple of weeks ago when it was in the nineties.

After eating breakfast, cleaning up my mess and reading the paper I went outside and used the line trimmer to trim the other side of the fence on the east side of the back fence. Then I trimmed my neighbor's yard around her fence and house where her son's riding mower does not get.

While I was doing that the spool for that holds the line broke so I had to stop. I will have to make a trip to Stark Street Lawn and Garden to see if I can find a replacement there. After I put the line trimmer away I got out my cordless hedge trimmer and trimmed the hedge on the east side of the house.

Once I had the "wild" new growth trimmed I put the trimmer away and got out my rake and a yard debris barrel and raked and picked up the trimmings. After I had it all picked up I put the rake away and went into the house and cleaned up.

It was lunch time so I made myself some lunch out of last night's left-overs and also had a turkey brat on a whole wheat bun with the last slice of provolone. After finishing eating I cleaned up the kitchen including picking up, shaking out the throw rugs, sweeping and spot mopping the floor.

I had thought about trying to do some painting upstairs but I did not want to because Kathleen was working on something for Alyssa and if she had finished them we were going to take her SUV to John's shop to change the oil and muffler. Then we would take the Jeep to Alyssa's to drop off the project, but since that never happened and when I realized that it, it was too late to get started.

One of the things that came in the mail today was our savings statement from the bank, so I reconciled it and filed it away. After I finished doing that I logged on line and checked the checking account online just to make sure that everything was okay.

Kathleen reheated the macaroni and tuna casserole from the other night for dinner tonight, there is just enough for a snack that was left-over so maybe tomorrow I will have that with something else for lunch.

I still have not heard from Sue today, I tried calling her home and cell phone again, but did not get any answer; her home phone just keep ringing so I am not sure what was up with that.
