Twas An Interesting Day

September 27, 2013

Good morning.  Well, Pogo and I survived yesterday.  The fellow came early and sprayed my place, and said he would be back next week to finish the job.  They have to wait a week to make sure all is well.  There was nothing in my place, but because I travel between the main house and my place, the spraying had to be done in order to warranty the work done in the main house. 

I feel as though a one hundred pound weight has been lifted off my shoulders now.  After next week, I can start putting my things back where they belong.  They've all been stuffed into the computer room and some stuff out back.  It's going to be wonderful to get back to normal.

I realize that this is a problem that has been becoming widespread everywhere, but I don't particularly want these critters in my house.  The dust bunnies can stay, but the bugs just got to go. 

The hardest part yesterday was finding something to do for five hours away from the house.  First Pogo and I did a couple of errands and stopped to take a few Fall color photos.  Then we went to Wendy's and got some lunch.  Their food doesn't seem to taste as good as it used to.  The fries were skinny and crunchy, and the chicken was hard and crunchy.  I'll stick to McDonalds and Burger King from now on.

After lunch, we took a ride to the park and walked around a bit.  Then I curled up in my car and had me a nap.  By now, I was very tired, having been up since 4 a.m.  After this, Pogo and I went to visit with Dee Dee for a while until it was time to go home.  While Joe watched Pogo, I rant to Walmart to buy a new mattress cover and memory foam topper.  However, I got the wrong kind, so later this afternoon I will return them. 

Last night my favorite TV program was on, Project Runway, and I was all curled up snug as a bug in my lounge chair waiting for it to start.  Alas, I awoke around 12:30 a.m.  Of course, I had missed my program.  Luckily I taped it so I can watch it tonight.  I also remembered that I had forgotten my laundry that was in the dryer.  So at 12:45 a.m. I was in the laundry room folding my clothes. 

I had no problem getting back to sleep until Pogo woke me up this morning around 4:45.  Time to make the coffee and get ready for work.   I haven't had a chance to look at yesterday's photos, so I got a couple from my archives to share with you.   The first photo is a Northern Flicker that was enjoying a tree trunk in the Mrs' backyard, and the second is a pumpkin arrangement that was given to the Mrs.

Now I must get busy here.  The Mrs will be waking soon and wanting her breakfast.  So, till tomorrow, Y'all be safe and have a wonderful day.

Hugs, Edna B>
