Good calm morning from Florida!
My neighbor is still in the hospital for multiple stent replacements and her daughter is arriving shortly. I’ll head over to the hospital shortly to make sure they both have what they need for what’s likely a multiple day hospitalization. I was happy to be in place when needed. It’s what we do, isn’t it!
@Bruce, I like the way you have all of the supplies needed for several days camping reduced to such efficiency. That must be really satisfying. As for the 3D printer, I still don’t quite have my head wrapped around it, but your remote holder is spiffy.
@Zulu, I really like the idea of your Men’s shed. You’ll have to let us know how it goes!
@Elizabeth, you made me laugh about your hair styling; I seem to get to the salon somewhere between repainting the house and digging up the backyard. I hope you can bypass that TOE!
@Realspeed, I don’t know Spec Savers in my part of the world, but that’s some kind of one-stop shopping to have ear treatment and an optometry practice!
@OGF, most wise of you to turn the wheel over to your daughter for a few days. You’d might as well enjoy the relaxation as it never lasts for long…
With retirement lasting a whopping three months before he decided that being in the air is better than being on the ground, Captain Surfermom flew in after midnight last night having accepted a new corporate flying job. He seems to like it, saying he feels like he’s flying a sports car, but alas, this late arrival meant that a certain someone was up at two in the morning, wearing a nightgown and a frightening case of bed head, to prepare a full-on dinner for the winged Jackie Stewart. Life is never on an ordinary schedule around this house; that’s for sure.
My son also showed up late last night (but at a more reasonable hour of eleven and content with a sandwich) to help with some outdoor work this morning. We’ve been in the yard trimming deadwood and a mountain of leaves and stems. I am mourning some of the plants I have been babying for years - bird of paradise, ti, crotons, and plumeria - that are all slumped over with freeze burn. Ever hopeful, I’ve been cutting them to the ground in hopes they might come back. Will see!
Alright, I am off battle nature, armed with my little hedge cutter.
Have a happy start to the weekend!
but at least it is under cover and it is still lovely and warm out.
