How are you feeling Tammy?

Feeling pretty good overall, Linda! Still a little ouchie when I cough or sneeze. I still get out of breath easily but apparently that is normal. When I had my follow up last Thursday they did a chest xray and there is no fluid in or around my lungs and they are fully inflated, which is good!
Next Thursday I have an appointment with cardiac rehab at the local little hospital...the surgeon strongly encourages participating in the rehab program. At some point I am supposed to have another echocardiogram. Just waiting for them to call me to get it scheduled. But my BP is good, my glucose numbers are good and my heart is steady and strong. Thanks for asking

We’re the opposite of you Nancy. Started out really nice.

Went with daughter Bridget and son in law to an open house for a place they visited on Friday with their realtor (before the listing was made public). This one is now a “no”. They’ve been out bid a few times, by as much as $50,000 over asking price. They aren’t willing to pay that much more since they don’t “have to move”. They are just looking for a bigger home.

Anyway, we heard some thunder but it hasn’t made its way here just yet but it’s gotten cooler, windier and darker.

That is some good news !!!

What weekend!

Busy busy busy.

Much packing, rearranging and cleaning. Skip bin is full.

One funny point - we had a cleaner come in on Saturday - he does work for the real estate agent we are using the sell the house so thought he would be a good choice as he would know what the agent likes. Seemed like a nice enough guy - ex-pat Canadian. Well he and his Mrs get to work and he starts listening to podcasts on his phone (on speaker) which was fine except they were all deep state and anti-science conspiracy podcasts. He is a dead-set, 100% full-on conspiracy theory nutter.

I couldn't resist the urge, I know, I know, I am weak. I started baiting him about all sorts of things from "rigged" elections to government being only for the 'elites' to the 'faked' moon landings. He started to get quite perturbed as each of his "theories" was dismissed with actual facts and treated with disdain and at times pity.

It was the highlight of an otherwise dull and painful day!

Forecast was for a rainy weekend but it ended up being really nice. We did lots of outdoor chores and planted some flowers in the front beds this afternoon.

Now it's wine thirty.

Bill, a place near us just started carrying those tomahawk steaks, we're definitely trying them sometime this summer. [smilie=yum.gif]

Mine was delicious, but I try not to eat like that now. I'm sure your husband will grill them to perfection.

A friend who owned 2 sports bars bought 5 Wagu tomahawk rib eyes to grill at camp. They weighed 28 oz at 50$ a steak wholesale price.
Four guys didn't finish the steaks.

I did.

He told latefr, he would never do that again.

His dog ate real well that weekend.

LOL>......

I'll drink to that!

Just checked to see how the Pelicans did tonight, Sunday games start at 6:00. They won 9-7 in 10 innings. After starting the season with a 3 game losing streak they're 6-6 now. I don't know how they're doing it, 6 of the 9 guys in the starting lineup have batting averages under .200.

Just poured a night cap Purple Haze............

Anyone else on the east see the rocket launch from Virginia at 844? It was freaking awesome in Jersey.

Anyone remember Cleveland Amory? Did you know his name is on an animal sanctuary? India (the tiger) is on her way there.
So glad she is safe.
Man with tiger says tiger belongs to wife. Wife says nope..not mine. Hmmmm
