Wed. Jan. 10
From what has been another sunny, breezy, crisp MO day,
If you haven't seen Dara's newest "changing of the clothes for Leslie" this one is a hoot as she has him dressed as a UT cheerleader.
We had another good night (well except for one short time) and Jim was eager to join the two old men groups for breakfast. I headed to the Y about 8:30, came home and showered, puttered around here until about 10:30 and then headed to the doctor's office. My blood pressure was better than the past few months and the weight was the same - the latter was a relief to me after all the salt intake at the Chinese buffet yesterday. Maybe next weigh-in will be better.
Jim and I headed to Piece of Cake for lunch. Butch and Sue Clark were there (had been there once before when we were there.) Butch loves to read and he was telling Jim about the current book he was reading. We also shared views on Grisham's latest. Jim had quiche and coleslaw and I had cheesy potato soup in a bread bowl.
We dozed for most of the afternoon. I awakened to a delicious smell of the roast that I had started a little after 8:00 this a.m. - couldn't pick up more than a small piece as it fell apart - absolutely delicious. I fixed some wild rice to go with it and also some green beans.
We watched the Texas/MU basketball game this evening. There were a few interruptions as Jim was able to make contact with Jim Grozinger and it now appears that JDF will be making two trips to Canada this summer. He will be home a few days between each trip, but that should be adequate time to recuperate somewhat. The first trip will be to an area in Northern Canada and the second just a few hours past Winnepeg.
I have Abby on my lap and she is sound asleep. Her head is resting on my left arm. Trixie is at my feet - also fast asleep. They had an outing with me when I went to the Y and then another outing when we went to Piece of Cake - both a excellent travellers in their crate.
I join the ladies for breakfast in the a.m. Before noon, the four of us will walk outside if the weather is okay (Jim walked outside late in the a.m. today). If the weather is too cool for my old lungs, then I will go to the Y.
I have a work session at the library tomorrow afternoon as we are trying to come up with a priority of things that need to be updated, corrected, installed, etc. There is also a home wrestling meet tomorrow evening - therefore somewhat of a full day.
The forecasters are still talking about moisture for the weekend. It doesn't sound as severe (ice) as they originally were saying - so we will just wait and see. By Monday, the temperature will also be closer to the normal range - COLD - but we have been very lucky so far so can't complain.
Be safe.
