Good morning. 62 overnight, going to be a high of 67. Perfect temp for me. Slight breeze and sunny.
Summer and I did our grocery shopping yesterday and on the way home stopped at a local furniture store that's going out of business after 70 years. A couple of years ago we had gotten a power lift recliner for Don. I hated it, it was too big, and I never found it comfortable. It's been sitting in the living room untouched for the last year, except for 'his' cat who is the only one who goes near it.
Yesterday I found a recliner that I loved. It felt like I was sitting on a cloud, and it was a really nice shade of blue which goes perfect with the couch and other chair in the living room. I got a heck of a deal on it, but they wanted $99 to deliver it. They had one still in a box in the warehouse, so we're taking Summer's truck to go pick it up today, and she's going to take Don's chair. She's going to help me get that cat house out of the dining room and out onto the deck (after I move the furniture around out there) while she's here.
Then I can put the other cat house together and put it on the front porch (after moving furniture around out there, see a pattern? lol)
I wasn't planning on having to mow again, but this warm weather has made the grass grow, so it's going to get one more mow, and mulching of the leaves. Then I'll call Dave and ask him to get the mowing deck off so we can clean it well and lubricate it for the winter.
Gracie's boyfriend is in a lot of pain. They didn't send him home with anything, told him to take ibuprofen. He has to see a neurologist for the concussion, a plastic surgeon to redo the stitches the ER did, an ENT for his ruptured eardrum (due to the high pitched sound of the airbag supposedly), and an orthopedic surgeon for his back. The police say he was going 50 but he says he wasn't. All he remembers is that it felt like the back wheels locked up and he couldn't do anything. The car started spinning and hit the tree. Poor Gracie was a mess yesterday. She got someone to cover her shift because she never got home from his house until after 1 am. She decided to clean the 20 gallon fish tank, and emptied a lot of the water. Was carrying it to the bathroom to wash it in the bathtub, when the cover slipped off and shattered glass all over the floor. She cleaned that up, washed out the tank and brought it back to her bedroom, got the hose from outside and started to fill it. She went to clean something else, not noticing that the hose was on the jet setting. When she went back to the bedroom she found the tank overflowing and her carpet soaked with water. It wasn't her day for sure. She was too worried about the boyfriend and not concentrating on what she was doing.
Have a nice first day of November!
