Saturday Roll Call

Since I was talking about doing more post. I will start by doing Roll Call. What are you up to today? What are you struggling with? Any good or bad news. I should be at PMRI this morning but I am stuck in lower slower Delaware this morning. I am coming to New Castle this afternoon for a guaduiation party. I don't know how long I will stay for Bob gets very tired and the heat gets to him. While we are up there I will stop by New Castle farmer's market for produce. Prices are so high down here. My husband likes the BBQ Kelbasi from there too. So I will grab him a piece of that and a roll. He will think he is in heaven. Made no other plans for today. See all lighter. Joanne

Today is a clean the house, grocery shop, take the dogs to the groomer kind of day.  Still trying to get hubby to help clean out the garage.  Its just not on his agenda today. Tomorrow, I'll relax!!

If you get hubby to do the honey do list please let me know the secret. I haven't found it in 26 years. I can tell when hubby is sick for he gets a need to do so much before going to the hospital. See you lighter. Joanne

Today I drove an hour each way to spend some time with my Mother in law and bring her some food and items that she can not get herself.  She wanted a new toaster oven and I brought her three different ones to try since she has arthritis in her fingers and some of the knobs are hard for her to turn.  She found one that she can use and now I will have to take the others back...that is OK...I hope there are people around to do those things for me when I am 86.  Now I am doing laundry and helping my husband pack for a week away at a conference in Boston.  I am going to do some major cleaning while he is gone...I hope.   I am waiting for it to get a little cooler so I can do my daily walk in the park.  Have a great day.

You are a wonderful daughter inlaw. I hope someone takes care of me like that too. My husband is friends with an 83 year old lady that still works full time. She is like his mom too. So I guess that makes her like my mother-inlaw. Funny her and my husband both are twins. He just loves taking care of her. Little things mean so much. You will be blessed. See you lighter. Joanne

Heather, Sounds like you had a party without the cake and ice cream. Your sister in laws should of brought that back after dumping their kids on you. Glad to hear you are getting rid of the big clothing. Congradulations on your wow moment !!! Life is good isn't it ?Take care. See you lighter. Joanne
