Yep, it would be good not to have to fish anyone out of the pool LOL.

I agree. There are a lot of fixtures out there, but it's a big space and it's like drops in the ocean with no delineation of the edges of the hardscape and nothing lighting the pergola area that has 4 lounge chairs.

I also noticed the spa light is burnt out (Paula jinxed me!) so need to have that fixed as the pool lights on should help keep people from falling in there.

Outdoor lighting would look pretty too...

Ha! Justice's stink eye.

194.6

Apparently I've entered another productive phase! I should plot it against the star charts to find a pattern . I washed both of my cars yesterday myself. Including vacuuming dog hair out. They look really nice. I was going to go to the car wash, but when I drove by, there were several already waiting and this car wash is not like the ones in CA where you get a spotless car in 15 minutes for $30. This is 4 hours for the same level of clean for $70. So I went home and did it myself. Then I ran the window cleaner on a few more sliders with dog snot. It does a nice job with that. I ran out of oomph to put the box together, but I will do that next.

Josue the tile guy is coming today to give me a quote to seal the flagstone patios. It really needs to happen every year, but I didn't do it last year. I also need him to put some spongy filler in a gap that was exposed when the cat patio screen was replaced. It no longer has a bottom track and that was covering the crack.

I also pondered outdoor lighting last night. I agreed to have one of the plein air painting festival events at my house in October (eek). Which runs until after dark, which makes me think about how dark it is in my backyard and I don't need people tripping back there...

Kirby needs a walk today. So I'll do that and work on the box and whatever else unfolds...

Take care!

120.6 - unchanged

Yesterday it was finally warm enough to wear summer clothing and no sweater/jacket! We found a 4 mile walk off the highway and saw 2 different key deer (pictures on FB). We went to one of our favorite tiki places for a big lunch, then stopped at another place on the same key (Marathon) for drinks and music. Great band! Dinner at home was more of a snack. Seems to be our trend the last few days.

We have also had a trend in movies: the last 3 were Saturday Night Fever, Grease, and Dirty Dancing. Coming up soon: Footloose. Funny how some of the old movies are different than we remembered especially Saturday Night Fever. It ultimately is a rather depressing movie telling the story of people with no future, a suicide, a rape, and a woman being kept as a mistress. All we remembered was that it had good dancing.

Today should be warmer but also potentially rainy this afternoon. At least we should be able to sit out on the screened deck. Justice can give his stink-eye to the dog across the canal from there LOL.

Have a thriving Thursday!

Those sandwiches sound good! We never have stuff like that at home.

I agree with you! I have been the handy one in both my marriages. I like at least trying to fix an issue on my own.

We would describe that as a slow news day! Lol! I remember my grandma's very small town newspaper describing the social happenings of the town, who had family over for a visit, who hosted coffee at their house, who attended the church bazaar, what Mary Ann made for dinner! Lol kind of sounds like our conversations on here some days! All about each other's lives!
