Cloudy
Today is cloudy and cool and nobody cares. Everybody is just enjoying it.
Today was spa day for the ole cowboy and me. A trip up the street by five blocks and the spa event began. Nothing, at least for me, feels better than some TLC for my feet. Dennis never begs off of the spa day because . . . he enjoys it as much as I do. Haircuts follow the the spa day. Going for one-month intervals is as long as either one of us can take. The toe nails catch in the socks and the hair becomes fly-away. We never leave Maria’s shop without a card for the next month. It was shocking to see the September date. We will be there.
When we got home a bit after noon, Dennis’ grandson and his pickup were parked in the drive waiting. He had phoned his grandpa about the visit. AJ knew we would be home shortly. It is always a good visit for the grandpa. AJ works for a cyber-optics company with under-ground cable. He is not married, owns his own home in North Mankato and loves his dog Rowdy.
For myself, I feel that I had a great week. When I parked the zero-turn yesterday in the back garage after mowing, our work on Wednesday really gave the garage the look that someone cared. We do need to pick up more floor-dry of the white consistency. We left our oldest floor broom in the garage so we can work the floor-dry in and then get it shoveled up.
Thursday’s shopping has allowed our pantry to be stocked for the items we consistently use and may not have to shop for them again for three months. We bought a new tote to be used as a litter box for the three patio kitties. Over time plastic surfaces pick up scents. Did Dennis pitch the old one? No. It has Dawn dishwashing liquid in it and he thought he may use it in the potting shed for dry storage after a good scrubbing. I encouraged him, if he did, to not use the cover for some time.
When we were done at the spa date, we did take a whip in and around the blue barn acre, aka: getting to look like a park. Very self-satisfying speaking of pride in ownership.
While Dennis and AJ are solving the world’s problems I am comfortable in my bedroom porch listening to a YouTube while poking in a stitch or two. AJ’s parent live several blocks east of us. Pretty darn special that we were his first stop when he got into town. Just saying.
Supper is the left-over soup from last night with Dennis and I having a half of a grilled cheese sandwich.
With that I take my leave. ♥
