Happy haircut to me. I went for a visit with Jody today and got my hair trimmed. Feels better as it needed to be shaped.

Was in the sewing room this morning for awhile. I found a quilt block that I think was my Mom's. It is not finished and as a matter of fact the needle was still in it. I squared it up and plan to finish it. I am going to have Dick Silvey make me a frame and eventually hang it in my quilting room. Ronnie did a little painting with kilz in the sewing room and a couple of spots in the kitchen today. We are getting ready for our big painting project.

My new cell phone arrived yesterday and I got the nerve to program it today. It is up and running and I actually tried to text. It will be fun to play with.

Late this afternoon I decided to clean under the sink in the master bathroom. What a mess. I had things that may have been there since the early 90's. They are not there anymore. :)


















We grilled pork burgers and I made a salad and had some fresh watermelon for dinner tonight. It was yummy. Now everything is cleaned up and I am ready for my daily dose of General Hospital.

We started the day today with a visit from Laufersweilers Funeral Home. We did some pre-planning and now we are going to decide if we want to prepay or leave money in an annuity. Lots to think about on those things.

The day started off very hot and humid but turned very stormy by early afternoon. There was actually a tornado warning for Webster and Calhoun counties. It got very dark and the sky looked pretty bad. We were lucky and ended up with just strong winds and quite a rain.

We finally made it to the grocery store and stocked up for awhile.

All and all a pretty quiet day.

My first day of retirement. Up at 7:30AM and off to the kitchen to make Apple Muffins. Joyce and Dick came for coffee and muffins at 9:00AM. We had a great visit. Joyce and I had a lengthy conversation about quilting and Ron and Dick just talked about guy things.

Later in the morning I started dusting in our bedroom. It turned into a dust everything from the mop boards on up. I also cleaned our bathroom from top to bottom. There were a couple of Longaberger baskets that contained things like cosmetics that I am ashamed to say were pretty disgusting. Glad to have that job done. It is very warm today with high humidity so we are waiting until evening to go out and do a little yard work.

Oh did I mention that we took a little nap this afternoon? I really did not work that hard but the nap was nice.

We missed Joe around here today. The three of us met my cousin, Rich Dean, and headed to St Paul, Minnesota to a 50's and 60's car show on Saturday. We had a great time but Joe and I got tired feet. A great time was had by all.
