Grocery run

By the time we returned home and put everything away we were both hot and exhausted. Found everything at our Neighborhood Walwart but the Mater Man's booth was empty, Found the other veggie booth South on 7hwy in from the Blue Springs Fitness...peaches , zucchini and a red onion !

We have a heat advisory... and our temp is currently 95 F... so no cooking tonight.  Ham, swiss cheese, tomatoes and red onion with mayo on a bakery roll is planned and I made a batch of carrot salad as a side.... and watermelon! Fresh sliced peaches with Cook Whip for dessert!

We enjoyed our dining room picnic

Car is home!!

 The car is back home!!  The tire which Bob could not keep inflated evidently had something sharp creating a hole in the tread. The bad tire sensor was a different tire.... both have be fixed!! Hooray

Our daughter and her husband took Bob to Goodyear and he drove the car home!!  No car rental necessary for my electrocardiogram appointment!

We spent the rest of the day enjoying the a/c... it was quite warm and tomorrow will be even hotter. Off to the grocery store EARLY!! Will stop at the Mater Man on the way home for more stuff. The peaches have been divine

Came across


 


I came across this digital scrapbook page  of my husband, his sister and younger brother...enjoying a trip to their grandparents' cottage on Canandaigua Lake , NY... summertime lake fun!

what a day

 Bob spent almost all  day trying to get the tired to stay inflated.... no luck which meant we had to find a way to get the car to Goodyear.

I tried to get him to call AAA ( we have memberships) but he was positive that they wouldn't tow the car from our driveway.    By late afternoon he was willing to call. A tow truck came and hopefully got the car to Goodyear before it closed.

Now we see what happens tomorrow... if necessary we will rent an Enterprise car so I can get to my electrocardiogram on Monday

Busy Thursday

 Today has been quite a bit cooler.. nice! We had errands etc to run starting with my haircut. Bob sat and read while my stylist left hair all over the floor.

Then we were headed to the library but Bob heard weird noises from a tire. We stopped at QuikTrip's free air pump and filled the tires.

Bob decided it was safer to hear home and put off the other errands.  Good thing... within an hour the tire was flat to the ground!  Bet this is all part of Saturday's trip to Warrensburg.

Bob refilled the tires from our compressor   and when the tired couldn't stay inflated ... called  Goodyear.We now have an appointment tomorrow to replace the tire pressure sensors and to see what's wrong with the tire.... he will have to fill the tire extra-full and drive slowly to Goodyear.. fun!

We had many many spam calls today... all supposedly from Medicare. They're not going to get me!!

Blog

 I am having trouble posting ... Here's hoping I'll be successful today.

It's been another hot day so other than getting ready for the quilting/craft group tonight we haven't done much of anything.

The quilting/craft group get together went well...Lots of talking ,,, working on projects ... and munching on all kinds of food items!!

Bob and I will check out the temps tomorrow morning and if things aren't too hot we will head out to the Brass Armadillo . We need some "steps" !

another errand go around

 We headed out again...starting this time with returning a library book. Then we stopped at one of the "Mater Man" booths for tomatoes. peaches and a small watermelon.  Then Bob and I "split up" . he went next door to CVS for his prescriptions while I went into our Neighborhood Walmart with a shopping list. By the time Bob was waiting for me and I had finished my list I was really feeling sick...it was hot and I was really thirsty.

But with Bob's loading and unloading the car everything was put away and I crashed in the recliner with something to drink!!  

The craft/quilting group meets tomorrow so after recuperating it was time to get the dining room ready and the kitchen floor mopped...the cats do leave all sorts of stuff  around!!

Speaking of stuff left around I have to put my work stuff away too! 

Bob has already put his ham fest purchases away ... he is really pleased  with them. After some work he will probably put some up for sale...
