A HOT WEEK!

MONDAY:
I did a couple loads of wash and paid 2 bills.  As today I had planned on working on the wedding photos. It's not that I haven't worked on them before, many hours. But when you have 590 some photos to go thru, it's a biggie job. I selected 73 photos and put them in an album on line. Then I put them in sequence order. Then I put titles on all of them.
Then I asked Bob to send them to Drop box so I could put them on Face book. As soon as he put them in Drop box, they all scrambled-the last picture was first etc. and most of the titles were gone! I was giving up!

I started supper.  Betsy's friend, Cassie, was coming for a stay as she had some surgery planned and Betsy was taking her.  Annalynn stopped to introduce us to "Otto."

BETSY'S GIVES HIM A HUG!

After supper,  Bob sat and put the photos  back into sequence. Saved them to Drop box again. We tried to download them to FB. The titles were gone again. We put the titles back in. Then we proceeded to load them to FB. They wouldn't load. Maybe too many. Frustrated after working all day with it, I said I'm going to bed. I told Bob if he knew what was good for him, he would go to bed too. If I worked that hard on cleaning my house; I'd be asking everyone to take their shoes off at the door!
TUESDAY:
I baked cookies in the morning as it was cooler outside.  As long as I had the oven going, I asked Bob to pick up another quart of local berries (before there all gone) and I baked another pie shell for pie.   Bob was going to the Chiropractor again, this time for his hip!  But that didn't stop him from using the power washer on the cement on the front porch and around the pool. 

POWER WASHING THE POOL DECK.

Bob had worked on the photos again.  Low and behold, he loaded them on Face book!  They went on my Profile page but who cares, as long as people can see them. 

Betsy and Cassie left for the hospital at 5:00 am.  They came home about 12:00 pm.  It's amazing how they can do surgery and discharge a person on the same day. 

WEDNESDAY:
As soon as I got up,  I checked on Cassie.  She was ready for coffee.  So I made a cup for both of us.  I changed her ice bag and then we visited.   We made a list of her meds to record the times taken etc.  Really didn't try to do much today, wondering if I should do something to make her comfortable.  I hated to hawk on her and later I found out that she is very independent.  So I just fixed meals and  read a book that she brought for me. 
THURSDAY:
I spent the morning cleaning the upstairs.  I was pooped after.  So I read a book after lunch.   Made supper and watered the plants. 
FRIDAY:
The deer was out this morning.  No sign of the fawn.   Bob went over town to pick up some pool supplies.  The kids had planned our Father's Day get together for this evening and I was asked to make Bob's favorite Pineapple Upside Down cake.  So I baked.  I also made chocolate cupcakes with cherry pie filling inside them. 
 In the afternoon, I went out in the sun.  I cleaned the pool steps and around the edging.  Bob pulled a lounge chair under the gazebo and he took his nap there.  I read a book.

BOB OPENING HIS FATHER'S DAY CARDS

DAVID WITH HIS GIFTS

We had a great evening.  I packed up deserts for the boys to take back to their apartment.

SATURDAY:

Bob left home around 7am to drive to Buffalo for a fishing class at 8am.  David met him there.  David had arranged the cookout on Friday so Bob would have all his gift cards to spend at the class.   They had a great time shopping after class.  Bob had a stash saved up from his birthday too.  He came home with a new pole, reel and miscellaneous items. (Finally, he's been shopping and looking since April.)



LOOK AT THE LENGTH OF THAT POLE.

Stringham Drive garage sale was today.  We didn't participate this year.  It didn't seem as busy this time; cars were not double parked and we didn't hear of any police visits like last year.  Double parked cars and neither driver approaching would back up; they got out of their cars and started a fight.  
Cassie and I sat by the pool and picked up a few rays of sunshine.  It was just beautiful out.  We were both reading books.  The water temp was 84 degrees, so I went in for the first time this year.  Sure enjoyed that! 

At lunch, Betsy spotted the deer with the fawn running towards the wheat field.  It was so cute!  All we could see of it was his hinny as he jumped to keep up to the mother.   She was headed for the woods, so that's probably the last we will see of them. 

 

SUNDAY:

After breakfast was done, Bob and I drove over to the sand wash area so he could practice with his new pole.  I was surprised by all the improvements that have been done since my last visit there.  They now have a huge pavilion, three docks and parking area down by the water.  Bob had a good time until more people started to arrive.  (Father's Day)  Families with their children, which they didn't watch.  A little girl was running around with no shoes and I kept thinking she is going to step on a hook.  Then she found a large pile of big rocks in the weeds to climb on; I wondered how many snakes were in there.  Her Mother calls her, "Bella."  What did I catch a fish? 
 It was very hot by 1:00, so we came home.  Betsy fixed a a beef on kimmel weck lunch for her Dad, and the rest of us.  Bob decided to take a nap and I headed for the pool.  About 4:00pm, I was about to go in and shower when Bob was getting up.  He wanted to swim so I went back out with him.  Such nice weather for using the pool and we waited so long for it.

Well, it's been a good week for us.  Hope your all enjoying the weather.
