Today has been glorious, luxurious and all around wonderful! It is a balmy 63 degrees! I have completed my waddle walk with limited profusion of sweat. Heaven.......... love fall...... it is marvelous! Now on to reality........cleaning......cooking(trying to channel Julia now that I am reading her cookbooks). My darling, darling is just now leaving..........and so I end this note...to paint the deck..................
Well, we had an enlightening trip to see the daughter. We helped move her from one student mold infested slum to another dirty (not mold infested) student slum. She and 3 others are renting "this old downstairs part of a house" living off campus this year. I really wanted to clean that place up...but the old students were moving out and were responsible for cleaning their mess. I wish I had money to rent her a decent place...but Bard college is not cheap...nor is the area...the student slums are ridiculous! In fact the owner of this house is a slum landlord as far as I am concerned!
We as always love to see our baby girl! Miss that child sooo much! We went to see the movie Julia and Julia, it was wonderful, wish you were there movie! My darling, darling man of a husband even liked it! I just love Julia Child.....I always watched her cooking show on PBS. Plus, I love to cook and it shows, if you get my drift........reason for the never ending walk a thons.
I hated to come home and face reality......as it always slams me in the face. My darling, darling finally passed his hell fire stone...Amen to that ordeal! Til the next time.....
So I will leave with a few pictures of our very short 3 days, 2 nights...vacation? I need to add that my man insisted that I take pictures of the washing machines. He informed me that he had spent more times in laundromats than I. Well let me interject something right here, right now...NO WAY! I loaded the clothes in the top dryers...Mr. know it all....put the money in the bottom dryers.....I love him..................Oh, and then started telling me poop stories...yeah..that's right all about poo......maybe he was bored?
Going North to see lone daughter...child #2...it's her last year in college......she is living off campus this year.....so bringing some furniture.....and other things.....she has become quite the cook. Although, I have not been the recipient of anything yet? We will leave very early Monday on our adventure. The Mr. PF has processed his stone... until next time...so is feeling good.
I am going to miss the area! This year I will get to go to the Dutches county sheep and wool festival
So on this happy note...even though I am working today, tomorrow and the weekend I will leave with ......
It has been busy around these backwoods parts. My Mr. PF has been processing a stone for nearly 4 days. Up and down and down and out. He appears better today....hopefully that little thing has processed it's way out!!!
My baby starts his last year of High School...hard to believe! I can remember when I brought him home...thinking....hummmmm...I will be 56 years of age when he turns 18.....boy will I be old. Well, I'm not quite 56 and the months are bearing down! I don't "feel" old but the body parts are sagging......The Mr. will be 60....
He isn't sagging...well....men sag different...OK?!
What was I talking about anyway?
I adore this ole man....yeah, it's true..I heard bells and whistles in my brain the first time I met him... . My sister helped me snag him...it was a blind date, she set it up...true.....after the first date I haaaddd to see him again.....sooooo after 2 weeks of waiting for a phone call, cause he said that he would call me and I waited and waited and waited some more till I couldn't take it...I called him (per advice of the younger sister) asked him to go run with me......(as per advise of that same sister).....yeah I said, yeah I ran 3 miles every day....just like him......pleaseeeeee...give me strength here...... as peoples I lied....I lied through my teeth. So, on said day.....I went to that same sister... she dressed me in this "hot" albeit stupid running outfit.....she kept telling me I could do it.....oh yeah baby.....I can do it ...I can run those 3 miles up the hills down the hills...(save me now..my brain was thinking) went to the appointed place to meet my mister and well.....ran maybe Fourth of a mile and fell down, near death....he laughed...but I got my second date and the rest is history...love this man!
No comments.....just not worth it............
This is actually coming home from work but what the heck......
The child #4 and my Mr. PF left around 2pm on the college trail. I really wish I could have gone....oh well...
I have been painting the deck like a mad woman...really a crazy woman..... as the mosquitoes are killing me. They and the flies really like me my blood it's quite appealing. Are you jealous?
I need to finish hooking this sorry excuse of a squirrel so.....I hook...........
