Something About Nothing............ #14

[Charade67]

So quiet this weekend. Nothing super interesting going on here. Friday was errand day. I was returning some clothes and ran into my next door neighbor in the store. I hadn't really seen her except in quick passing since July 4. I almost didn't recognize her. She has lost so much weight. She is doing one of the GLP-1 injections.

Saturday was football day. Our team lost... again. And our starting quarterback was injured. Next week dh and I are traveling to an away game. It's going to be a long depressing ride home if we lose again.

I'm happy that tomorrow is the first day of fall. Unfortunately we are also supposed to get rain most of the week.

Us too, Charade, rain chances most of the week. But at least today, high weather system still around and nice weather day.

Yeah, now in the Fall season, and what do you get with a clear overnight sky? 56 degrees as I came out the door. Sigh. Week day routine start was this predawn morning. But no jacket, as will be 78 when I start that happy commute out of the city this late afternoon.

Monday morning blues. Was up right before the alarm went off. Quick enough commute, and since it’s the Jewish holiday coming up, and the fact that not all come in on a Monday, and so very quiet in this early morning.

Had a nice weekend, did a pick up, that will be returned, as I assume had seen in person before, little one would have not bought it. Also had a very filling spaghetti dinner last night with my sister. Pool is now weathered, so we play board games and left a puzzle for her to finish. I enjoy catching up with my only sister of us five.

By as all good weekends end, for at least the next couple of months, that week day routine will be in the city. Then I’ll be like my DH, as what day is it? Not really, but hoping to enjoy life and maybe part time work. Though it will be a change, as been working 35 years at where I started this work.

Monday, yes it is. The first one in the Fall. Yeah, one of the last weeks to hear lawn mowers. Hehe. Though I have to say, it is kinda nice to complain about the four different weather seasons where I live. Fall begins to be cooler nights and early mornings, and the cheaper apples, as local high season of them right now. Still mostly green seen right now, but that glorious tree leave colors will show not much after we end this month and into next month. By early October, many of our green leaves will be yellow, orange and red. But as still warm now, those shorts and t- shirts will not be put away quite yet.

Golden sunrise, and sunlight pouring through my window. Sunrise was around 20 minutes ago. And almost cool inside the office, as even hugging the tea mug, it’s even getting cooler. Do have that sweater jacket, may put it on soon.

Most Marvelous Monday to all.

Making a quick stop in!!!!!

Life seems to have gotten super busy. Since dd and her family moved back here, we have been busy with them. I seem to pick up our gd often to help out when I can. We just had her for a whole weekend as dd and sil went to Vegas to go to watch the Raiders play LA ( I think) They had a great time, and we had a great time with our gd.

Work - has been insanely chaotic, and doesn't look like it will get better any time soon. It is what it is, I just keep taking it day by day.

I am sad, fall is already here. Summer flew by way too fast. We did major landscaping in both the front and back yard -so that took up most of our summer. There is some smaller projects to do next year, but won't kill our summer like it did this year. But it looks amazing.

We are planning a quick trip to Disneyland in Jan to celebrate gd's 6th birthday. She is only little for so long, and want to visit Disney in some sort of capacity while she is little and the "magic" is still here. She is soooo excited, and Grammie is busy researching how to do Land vs World. I am thinking maybe a quick weekend trip for dh and I just to figure it out before we drag the kids there . I have some extra personal leave days I need to use up and think that would be a great use of those days.

I miss stopping in. Work has been soooo busy and chaotic that most days I don't even pick up my phone or look at anything other than the computer monitors in front of me. And the evenings, I am soooo burnt out, I have zero energy or brain capacity to do much else.

Well, take care everyone!!!! Hope to stop in again soon.
