Rambling @ MindSay

Rambling about stuff on a Saturday morning

Also needing a shave

Been waiting for the Terminix man to do his quarterly inspection to insure the termites are being held at bay.  That has been a running gun battle; all the homes in my block now have this service, just one more thing in the upkeep of a home.

Grocery shopping is a necessary chore today, the old pantry is empty, in fact, I had to run and get eggs and bread before breakfast.  It still a little chilly, so we both decided to put off the shopping tells, this afternoon, with the expectation that it would warm up a little.

There is not that much going on, really, in fact it gives us more time for our thing. Life gets a lot more peaceful after the kids are grown; then we find Grandkids are a lot of fun and add to the family interactions. My Daughters say that I have mellowed out over the years and the Grandkids are reaping the benefits. Really, I do not think that there has been that much change in me. That is enough rambling for today; you all have a great day.  

 My Daughters have provided this old man with wonderful Grandchildren; it makes life a real kick.         

Feels like I am coming down with a cold, there could be a possibility that it is the flue.  Texas has a wide spread out breaks all over the state; both of us have had our flue shots that should somewhat mitigate the symptoms. From the news report this is a new type of flue virus and our flue shots may not help that much. It looks like we will refrain from crowds and keep our shopping to a minimum.

 The Wife is still sawing logs, the extra rest cannot hurt, and she is going to be unhappy about me not getting her up. She likes to utilize every hour of a day; I can here her saying at our age we do not waste time. That is my ramblings for today.

Hang in there and have a great Monday, do take care.   

Having my morning cup of coffee in front of my computer, trying to plan what we are going to do today. The Wife has gotten the ideal that I need to get some new trousers, just when these are starting to get comfortable. The same with my shoes, just got my favorite pair broken in, she makes me change then before we go out. Heck all I worry about is it comfortable and clean, looks are secondary in my taste for clothing. Knowing it is a lost battle and having common sense, I will grumble a little, give in, and hope for the best.

Our weather is still quite warm for this time of year, low sixties; a cold rain forecasted for Saturday, we need the moisture. One learns that if you do not like the weather, stick around it will change in fifth teen minutes.  

Have a good weekend, take care, and do not take any wooden nickels.    

The start of a new day, do not have any particular plan going for it either.  If the Wife feels up to it, there could be an outing to the mall. I need to get some ink refills for the computer printer, which has to be done before to long.  Therefore, it looks like we will just let the day unfold and see what happens. Some times no plan turns out better than having one.

That is it for today, smile the weekend is all most here.
