Helloo peeps! Miss you all! Left the house at 4 a.m. for a two-hour ride to a 10K on the Seminole Indian Reservation -- first time I've ever raced on a reservation. Picked up another second place -- stopped at a friend chicken place a friend recommended -- mother clucker, the food was amazing! Perfect bird, great sides and even the sweet tea (which I usually hate) worked.
Got home, unpacked, showered, ran some errands and a load of laundry. Dinner is some of the fried chicken and corn nuggets (think hush puppies with fresh corn), and a second dish of chicken with rice and vegetables. DH can have his pick of anything I am serving and I will share. Tomorrow I will work on getting the place ready for our trips (mine to a meet and then on to South Carolina).

I took a walk this morning, then did some yardwork to stretch my legs and back. I will finish the yardwork later, and probably mow the front lawn too.

Great brunch. I woke up starving this morning and I'm not sure why. I ate a larger than normal meal at the class reunion and even had a piece of the chocolate cake. The reunion was not very well attended. Our graduating class was over 400 people and there were maybe 75 people there last night including spouses.

Good Afternoon Kids! We had a lot of folks at church this morning. We're supposed to get some rain, but except for a few drops on the windshield, nothing... Thanks for serving up brunch, NancysSummerSip!

DD and kids are on there way up. I am going to pick up a bunch of individual pizzas and we will meet at my Mom's. Everyone can have a late lunch/early dinner. Mom will get to see the kids and have some company for the afternoon.

OK, lawn mowed, weeds pulled --- and then it rains. Well, duh. I had to get the hard yard work done, though, because more rain is expected all week. I can edge the yard tomorrow, even when it's wet. But mowing would be difficult.

We need rain. Just 0.16 inches in September and none yet in October.
ETA: I just checked the forecast and there is a possibility for rain everyday M-F.

Today is supposed to be a pretty decent day so I hope to get some yard work done. This morning though is grocery shopping, Mother Hubbad's Cupboard is empty. Plus I will need to pick up a few extra things for our trip at the end of the week. Mom and I eat well when we are at the cabin on the river.

Good Morning Kids! We're getting some much-needed rain here. I'm setting up some appointments and such. Good projects to do on a rainy day.

Got quite a bit done in the yard getting things ready for fall/winter. Both yard debris bins are full for pickup tomorrow.

Good Morning Kids! We got plenty of rain yesterday, and it looks like more is heading our way today. It's a good thing it's been dry, as the ground is absorbing all of the rain.

Good morning everyone.
Didn't get any much needed rain. Predicted again tonight. I may have to water the new grass or lose it. It got cooler, 60* at 9 am, and windy.

Mornin Muffins! I am trying to get up the gumption to go to the grocery store. Somehow, I just don't want to.

Good Morning Kids! I need to see the local vampire, er, lab today to get some bloodwork done. Nothing exciting. My new doctor doesn't have a lab inside his office, which apparently is fairly common around here.

Well THAT was a waste of time. The lab refused to do the work, even though I knew which tests the doctor wanted, because the lab didn't get a referral sent over. I should've stayed in bed.

Brrr, it is a chilly 34 degrees this morning. We are inching ever closer to having it frost overnight. I need to get crackin this morning since I am baby sitting this afternoon. DGS is running a fever so has been banned from daycare. DD stayed home with him yesterday. He did good all day until late afternoon/evening when he decided to spike that fever up again. DSIL is staying with him until around lunch time then will bring him to me on his way to work.

While we're not getting any rain, it's been cloudy all day, which is actually strange for this part of the country. Oh well, at least the temps are going down. The locals have declared today to be "Fall", because you know it'll never last.

DGS and I survived the afternoon. He is so much easier than DGD and was just happy to be held, with DGD you had to walk the floor and sing. I had put him down for a nap and it was quiet in the bedroom so I peeked in and he was just sitting there holding his stuffed moose, just quietly playing. Later he was sound asleep and slept about 1 1/2 hours.

I need to be getting ready to head out on our trip and I just sit. I'm tired, not the level of exhaustion I was at before vacation started but still tired. This is going to be a tiring trip. Mom can't hardly move and if she sits too long she can't get up. She has finally started using a cane because as she puts it she gets wobbly if she has stands too long. So going to a large fall/craft fair, where we will have to probably park further away, and people bump into you, seems like a grand idea to me.

Mornin Muffins! Sharon, you can probably get a handicapped parking permit for your mom. Look into it. Even if you are the driver, you can use it for her.

Years ago when I had a lady to look after my mother I was able to get a handicapped permit for the lady since she was transporting my mother.
