Congratulations, @Snowysmom! I know it’s bittersweet for you, but I am excited about this condo for you! (Will also send you a PM.)

I hope Mia feels better soon, @footballmouse.

DS’s neurology appt went well. He’s pretty much fully healed from his concussion, and she did an excellent exam. She answered questions about his work with this history and her answers were all positive.

Tonight we grilled some hotdogs and hamburgers. DH grilled the buns, too, so they were extra good.

What a wonderful update, dear Pea. Praises indeed extra to God. Tell your son, I'm so happy for him and to stay safe. Please, of course, thank him and your daughter from me for following in your compassionate footsteps by making a kind nursing differerence

Hi MIcca.

Quick good morning. Off to get a haircut. Then work a bit while I wash sheets. Then off to the new condo to clean some windows. I will do maybe 2 hours at a time at the condo or even a bit less. That is about it for now.

Have a good day.

Welcome @Micca

Good morning. It's already warm outside, going to mid 80's. It will be an in the house ac day for me. The heat really got to me while I was supervising the painting. Darryl isn't the neatest painter in the world, though he does a thorough job. He started on the first window with the trim, and immediately got blue paint on the white siding. It wouldn't come off. We tried bleach, paint thinner, scraping etc. I figured it would fade in time. When they were almost done, there were a few more spots, one prominent one right on the front of the house. I came in wondering what might take it off. I grabbed a Mr Clean miracle eraser, and wet it and put Dawn on it. He got up on the ladder and with a little scrubbing, off came the blue paint. It was so hot out yesterday that the paint was drying almost as soon as it was on. I got all of the other spots off the rest of the house after they left. It really looks nice, especially from the road. The blue pops off the white, I'm really happy with my choices.

I already stripped the bed and remade it. I washed the new comforter yesterday and am going to run the new curtains through a hand wash cycle before I put everything in and call the master bedroom done.

@Pea-n-Me such great news about your son!

Have a nice day everyone!!

Hi with Everyone,

Quiet Saturday here which is a blessing. Dad thank God is staying home. We are expecting mail and a couple of Amazon packages. Tomorrow we may try again to get Aquafina delivered through Boost by Ralphs.

I have asked this before. Do any of you order from Current Catalog? I used to get their emails daily. Often times I would receive an offer for Free Shipping no minimum order+20% off my order for example. I would love that type of dual coupon code right now. I no longer receive any Current emails. Customer service on their end has not resolved this at all! Thought I'd ask all of dear you. Thank you

Saturday XO. I will check in later.

Thread Save!

 

[Snowysmom]

Back form the condo where I washed windows, got the floor areas ready for the appliance delivery, and looked in the basement again. Tomorrow I will go again and clean the bathrooms. I bought alot of supplies and my agent was kind enough to bring me paper towel, trash bags, soap dispensers, and wine. Now time for a walk.

Have a nice evening.

 

[bobbiwoz]

It seems to me that I get email from Current, but I mostly just trash, but I will keep an eye opened for what you are asking, @flyingdumbo127.

 

[flyingdumbo127]

Snowysom. I am so grateful step by step your new home journey is made brighter by kind people as it should be! Always know we love and are here for you, too.

Thank you dear Bobbiwoz

I'm not home right now, but I think I saw an ad from them in my incoming (snail) mail basket. If it's anything good, I'll let you know.

 

[flyingdumbo127]

Extra and thank you so much PollyannaMom.

As a Target heads to all of dear you, I looked at a preview of the weekly ad starting tomorrow. There will once again be a Target Circle offer of a $15 Target Store Gift Card on a $50 Household Purchase. You all know I share in hope of saving all of you money

 

[flyingdumbo127]

What a quiet Saturday thread. each of you are now enjoying a relaxing evening! Dad and I did get our expected Amazon packages and one mail package, too. Dad tomorrow will be going to PavilionsWe are keeping in prayer that tomorrow afternoon Boost through Ralph's this time (they didn't yesterday) will bring us our 3 cases of Aquafina! I realized the Xray place is closed on Mondays. I will give them a call first thing Tuesday morning to God willing set up my Xray for early Wednesday morning. Thank you all, of course, from the bottom of my for all your extra love and prayers! Dad update is I am so thankful that depending on when I get my Xray taken, he will be going to look at a new next week! That will be such a blessing and gift to me to know at long last he has a comfortable new bed!

Looking forward as always to watching online worship tomorrow morning

Sweet Dreams friends with double love.

 

[Snowysmom]

@flyingdumbo127 I hope you can get your xray soon.

Good morning. Cool here right now, 63 but heading into the 70s. It is supposed to rain later today. I will be going back to the condo to clean the bathrooms today. I am breaking the chores into 1-2 hour chunks of time. I find that more manageable for me. Tomorrow the cable company comes to set up that. I am hoping it goes well. I am sure they have a method that works as so many other condos in the complex already have people living there. I was looking around the outside yesterday and realized that my unit and the one part of the duplex building seem to be the only ones that have a slope outside the back and a bit on the side. I figured they were going to level it but they did not. But, I also see that most units have something they have to deal with such as a long, steep set of stairs from the deck to the ground which is a dealbreaker for me. The condo building next to mine has a chain link fence in the front due to a high wall and the stairs from the deck lead to the fence and very little green space. I have a good amount of green space off my deck even with the slope. I overthink things and need to stop. It just feeds my anxiety. My unit will work for me.

Jeff and family come back from WDW today. They had a great day yesterday. He said MK was not crowded at all and they got to do all that they wanted. Jeff and Ellie went on Tron and loved it. Hard to believe that the kids start school on Wed.

Have a good day.

 

[lynxstch]

Good sunny morning. Going to be low 80's today. We need rain, maybe tonight they say. I'm in the middle of putting together a new gas grill, so I've got to keep going before I get tired of doing it, lol.

Have a great day, I'll be back later.

 

[flyingdumbo127]

Sunday to all with love!

Thank you all again always for you and your extra love and prayers for me. I will update on Tuesday for sure! Looking forward to soon watching online worship and having a quiet Sunday.

Love to all. I will come back later.

Snowysmom, I totally agree that smaller amounts of time make tasks much easier and also go quicker! So glad also Jeff and his family enjoyed a good trip!

Lynn, my usual message to dear you REST!

 

[flyingdumbo127]

Good afternoon thread save! I did enjoy online worship earlier. Dad and I are waiting hopefully for Boost to deliver. Quiet day otherwise. Many prayers all of you are enjoying this Sunday, too!

 

[flyingdumbo127]

We are very disappointed in Boost today--the worst. A text from a Boost shopper said he was at Ralph's and had checked out. Great! We for sure believed we would get our 3 cases of Aquafina. The next text said he was here and trying to deliver! Dad went outside only to see no one! To make matters worse, he got a notification that our order had been delivered. Not to us! Ultimately, the driver apparently cancelled our order when he couldn't contact dad. So not okay. Dad, of course, doesn't take things often as he should in stride and was upset understandably). Ralphs did refund our order. Dad will call Instacard directly tomorrow to hopefully find out what did happen and what they will do to make this right. We still have almost a year of Boost left that I had bought him to make getting heavy cases of water easy.

Tomorrow morning, God willing, we will go to Target and a couple other local very close by places. I will be calling the Xray place first thing Tuesday morning when they open!

May all of dear you have a peaceful night with sweet dreams

Good evening.

Dad is not getting surgery now. He was off blood thinners for too long a period of time and the cardiologists wanted him back on asap. He needs to see a urologist. The hospital recommends where he had his cancer surgery. I agree as they did the reconstruction during the cancer surgery. Mom didn't agree but has changed her mind after talking with the drs. Never mind the fact that I explained it the same way. Dad did go to rehab in the same hospital though. He really isn't strong enough to come home, He was weak before the hospitalization and is weaker now. Jim spent a week in that rehab unit and they got him up and walking after the 2nd stroke. Of course that means nothing either. I should be used to her attitude by now but sometimes it does bother me that she will take the word of friends and other people over me.

while I was at church today Jim had our Chewie out for a walk and she was attacked by a dog that got away from her owner. Thankfully Chewie wasn't injured and seems ok tonight. I don't think I could have handled her being injured right now. Sadly the time has come to say good-bye to Link. He is not eating, and has begun vomiting even sips of water. I knew this was inevitable but it was still hard to hear today. We will be going to give him his final walk tomorrow and the greatest gift of love we can ever give him, but it hurts just the same. I will try and remember him always as the happy puppy who was always so excited to see me and loved his car rides. With great love comes great sorrow.

I am off to read before I fall asleep so I hope you all have a great night.

 

[flyingdumbo127]

Dear Taz.

Extra love to you Dear Dazed, Frog, and Kirby, too.

 

[Snowysmom]

Taz It is hard to say goodbye to our beloved furbabies. But it is like you said, the greatest gift of love. He will be at the Rainbow bridge playing happily.

@flyingdumbo127 I hope the boost issue gets straightened out. Maybe it was just this particular person who did not follow through.

Foggy here this morning and 60 degrees. It is supposed to go into the 70s. I have to go to the condo this afternoon for the cable person. They say the appt is 1-3 hours long. I am hoping it is one hour and not more. The wires are already there and I don't have alot to install.

Off to work. Have a good day.
