Happy Birthday Jack

October 3, 2019

Good morning.  Tis fifty degrees and cloudy this morning.  According to my weather app, it won't be getting much warmer today, maybe just a few degrees.  Last night I had to put the heat on.  I don't want Pogo and me getting sick because it's cold. 

Today is Jack Jack's birthday.  I think he's fifteen now.  (My memory isn't always up to par)  My goodness, where have all the years gone?  Jack, I hope you have an awesome day filled with laughter and love.  Meema loves you.

Deanne is coming by later this morning  to take me out to do errands.  I want to get my flu shot while we're out.  All my other shots are up to date.  I'm trying to stay as healthy as possible.  My daughter Audrey will be coming for a week towards the end of the month.  While she is here, all us girls are going to spend one evening at the Paris Cabaret to see Carousel.  Jazzy isn't in this production, but it's still going to be a fun night out.

Yesterday I had trouble getting my energy level up to work on filling bags for Good Will.  However, by evening, I finally got started and managed to fill up two bags and start another one.  Then I spent some time on my computer trying to remember how to copy a music CD.  It took a while, but I finally figured it out.  I bought a couple music CD's for my daughter Laura Jean, and I wanted to keep a copy for myself. 

While I was playing on the computer, I played a video CD that  my friend Kyra sent to me almost twelve years ago.  It was full of short videos of various types of art and photos.  I'd almost forgotten how interesting this CD was.  Thank you Kyra for another fun evening. 

Did I mention that the computer is my old desk top?  It still works so I've hung on to it.  It comes in handy when I want to print anything.  This one is connected to my printer.  It's also good for making music and photo CD's. 

This morning Pogo tried to wake me up at 4 a.m. to make some breakfast.  I told him "no way" and "to go back to bed."  I did get up at seven and cook us some bacon and eggs.  I broke up a strip of bacon and cut up some egg into a bowl and gave it to Pogo.  I wasn't sure he would eat it, but he did.  Sometimes, he'll eat what I'm eating.  Don't tell him, but last week I actually gave him doggie food and he ate it.  Now that actually surprised me!

I've borrowed a couple images from the web to share.  This one seems to explain my ability to remember things lately.

And this one explains why it's okay not to do very much housework.  So far, no one has broken in to do me bodily harm, but at least I'm ready.

And last, but not least, I love this one with the Cardinal.  We have them here in my yard and they really are beautiful.  And yes, I do thank God for every single day of my life.

Now I'm off to do a bit of blog reading before its time to get dressed to go shopping.  So, till tomorrow, Y'all have a fantabulous day.

Hugs, Edna B.
