    I can't remember if I told y'all, but I have a repair to do on the garage ceiling. On Monday morning, when they said they would be there, they failed to appear. I texted him and he said he would have to get back to me. At lunchtime, he texted me and said, "Tomorrow morning." No apologies. I...

    Perry's friend gave him a Walmart bag full of already shelled blackeyed peas. We did the second and third canning today. We ended up with 8 quarts and 40-some pints. The pint jars are perfect for two people. We are running low on salsa, so I guess that will be our next project. Hope...

    Oh, and my sort of new laptop did the same thing it did before, and would not turn on. I gave it a couple of days to rest, but today I went to BestBuy and bought a new one. It is the first time I have been disappointed in a refurbished product from Amazon. I decided that for me, a new one...

    You are right about that. On Monday morning, when they said they would be there, they failed to appear. I texted him and he said he would have to get back to me. At lunchtime, he texted me and said, "Tomorrow morning." No apologies. I was irritated because I had gotten up early to clean...

    Sunday again! We will have to go back to my house because my second quote on fixing the ceiling in my garage says he will be there early Monday morning. The first quote was $975. The second one was $450 plus $100 for supplies. Not sure if I made the right decision. I'll have to get back to you...

    Heehee, I meant $30 of stuff. I'm not right. But everyone knows that.

    I have thought that exact thing. But the older I get, the more I think "Not today" would be a more fitting way of thinking for me.

    We are having beautiful weather here, but even though it makes me feel bad, we are starting to need some rain. Hope everyone has a wonderful day. :wub:

    It is just beautiful weather here, with nice temperatures, but we are starting to need some rain (even though it makes me feel bad). The coffee tastes good to me this morning. I think I will go take it outside and enjoy the quiet. Hope everyone has a great day. :wub:

    Oh, it is not all that much of a mess. He has a huge canner, and he does it outside on the turkey fryer. I think what I like the most is going to his pantry with such a selection for dinner. Our only issue is that he thinks the microwave is only supposed to be used for heating coffee...

    We bought a bushel of green beans yesterday, so we have been canning today. Oh my gosh, they are so good. Going to be even better this winter. It is a lot of work, but so worth it. It has been absolutely beautiful today, but I only went out to feed the deer. I hurt my back the other day, and...

    I honestly used to laugh at older people for saying that, and I, too, have started seeing the years fly by. Sometimes someone says something about so and so died many years ago, and I thought it just happened a couple of years ago. Sheesh! Want to hear something else crazy? Next month, my...

    Oh my. They seem to be popular. All jokes aside, isn't it wonderful what can help people so much? I hope she gets along as well as Perry. I can tell the biggest difference in him. He feels so much better. Sending good thoughts to your DIL.
