Good Morning....
Sunny and humid out there. Could get some strong storms this afternoon.
I'm going to pick up my mom and take her to Best Buy where she will get a new Lively health thing she wears around her neck in case of an emergency. Hers quit holding a charge, so she called the company and they went through all the steps to see if it was something that could be fixed over the phone but it couldn't. Was told Best Buy owns the Lively/Jitterbug devices and she could take it back and receive a new one free of charge. So that's what we are doing this morning...then, of course, lunch somewhere. I'm thinking Olgas as it's right in the same strip area as Best Buy.
My swing is really deteriorating. The wood is rotting in a lot of spots. I'm just waiting for the day I come crashing to the ground. I got it in June of 1998...so I guess it's served its purpose well, but I sure hate to think of not having it. I'm sure new ones are outrageously expensive.
Icook...glad to hear Christina will be helping you today.
Mamma...hope your back is feeling better today.
Have a great day..........

'morning all! I guess we are heading out in a bit to go take care of stuff at the other place. I'm tired, so I plan to sit one my butt for as long as I can right now. I got the shelf put together in the basement this morning, it is the same material as the stereo cabinet there-yes, it's old and it still works-so it's staying. It has baskets that match (3x3 cube shelf) so I was able to put all of the stuff that was there in baskets and out of sight. I think it looks good, not bad for a FB marketplace purchase as I'd only seen pics. I also have to get back upstairs to get that done yet. What will I do with myself when my to-do list is to-done?
Dr appt-have a scan coming up to see the function of the GB as the ultra sound showed no issues there. So, they'll stimulate it to make it act up-I said I could do that by eating certain fried things, then see how it goes. I did offer up one sludgy GB, an irritable appendix (as described by a previous dr), two useless ovaries and as much body fat as they want, no takers yesterday. Then, since she had a student dr with also, I let her see what half of a thyroid is like. Generous, eh? All errands run, mooched lunch from my brother/SIL, got the chair riser on at the farm and got his remote programmed. Back to town, met a MP person and did the last of my errands. It was raining so hard that I couldn't even see my brother ahead of me, crazy stuff. I've nothing today or tomorrow, then back to the races on Friday and I'll spend the weekend at the farm.

We are back from the pet area. Mary and Emily were leaving but turned around and sat with us until Mandy was ready to go. That was so nice.
This morning I had to take the cart to the pet area. My back is in a world of hurt yet. Nothing I did yesterday helped. By bed time it felt better but lying in bed stiffened it to the point that I had a heck of a time getting out of bed. Thankfully I had the foresight to put my cane next to the bed. It's going to be a long day.
A meeting for lunch today at the same place as the tough pancakes. I'll just have water, hard to mess up that. I'll let Marylene know that she may have to have a back up for help with the funeral and prep which is Friday and Saturday. Tomorrow is the dentist but I can't back out of that. I need that cap on and done. I'll then make the next appointment for next Thursday in hopes that my back will be better by then.
Yesterday I noticed that the inside coverings that I put on the front window made a difference of two degrees. So I was happy with the results. These next few days the temps outside will be even higher. I hope it helps then too.
CJ, time to start pricing swings before you land on your tushy. Maybe in the fall they will be on sale.
IC, good to hear Christina is helping today and more often now too.

Good Morning Ladies - - - It's a nice sunny morning at 67 after our rain last night about 10:30. Should be a beautiful day! Nothing special happening here today - hope to hear about the bathroom lights, as I didn't have a call back yesterday. I'm sure they don't like to mess with these small jobs, but they need to be done also. IC, hope your day with Christine goes well today. CJ, what a day you had yesterday - - Sure hope you got things all cleared up but I agree, it sure does take the pep right out of you. Don't you wish these people could put there energy and abilities to some good use, instead of trying to cheat honest people? As much as you enjoy your swing, I don't think you should give replacing it a second thought! Start looking now, and see what is out there. Laurie, glad they are going to do that scan on the GB - hope it shows the problem up. I can't believe that you are also having so much trouble to get this taken care of. You are the third person I know that has recently had to go through so much time and trouble but mostly pain before they get rid of it. Good luck getting things done at the other house today. Mamma, more dental work tomorrow - - glad it's coming along. Good idea to have back up help lined up for the funeral it you need help. More hands helping are always welcome anyway!

Hello grannies. morning is gone! I had an early morning appt' with th eye Dr and this time it was good news as the pressure was way down, instructed to continue the eye drops and she will see me in 3 months. This dr is a real sweet and energetic person who likes to hug and since I'm also a hugger that's fine with me. I do like a good hug! Then a few stops for dd to do somethings and home. I did walk around the front part of the house to look at the flowers. Deer have been eating some lilies and some hosta, just a few things but I do wish they would stay out of the flowr beds. I sure don't have much energy, the walk around to the front of the house left me tired!
IC hope you get some good sale items today. We do like sales!Sorry the swing is reaching the end of it's faithful service. Hope you can get a replacement that does as well and gives you many relaxing hours.
Laurie I don't think you will ever get the to do list emptied! There is always something to be done or something we want to do
Mamma so glad to hear the window treatment is herping keep the temp down. Every degree helps!
Greenback hope the people get on the balland call you soon about the light. The little job are important to those who need help. I used to wait 24 hrs if no call back I called someone else. The could at least call to tell me something so I would say I'm so sorry I thought you didn't have time for this job.
Nothing more to do today since it's a cloudy dark and humid I might sit outside to get warm
