Thursday, August 26, 2004

I'm trying something new. I've been "publishing" on Friday and more often than not, it takes Blogger until Saturday to get it on the web. They must be really busy on that day so I'm going to try publishing on Thursday and see if that makes a difference. The rain is supposed to taper off starting today ... for a few days anyway. It rained cats and dogs yesterday evening (puppies and kittens too) but no precip in the air this morning. Last night, we shared a big pot of vegetable beef soup that had simmered in the crockpot all afternoon and lots of good conversation with our friends, Gloria and Les and it was delicious. Our house has been in such disarray for so long we haven't wanted to entertain so we're really pleased to have our new house on wheels so we can have friends over for dinner. That road has been one way for so long as they have invited us to dinner more times than we can count over the past year or so. At last, we settled on September 17-18-19 for the date of our sale. Even with Gloria and Les's eight tables up, we still needed more so on Tuesday afternoon we borrowed four more 8 ft. tables from our friends, Sandy and Ray and they have two more if we need them. Our nine tables have been presold to our friend, Andy and he'll take them after we're done with this sale. Twenty one tables plus the kitchen counter tops and twenty feet of built in work benches in the garage ought to do it ... if not, I guess we'll use the floor in the house! Phil took Randy to the doctor yesterday morning and as Phil says, "He's going to get blasted." (his kidney stone that is ;-) late Friday afternoon. Good luck Randy! Well, yesterday was my "payday" (my Social Security check was deposited) so we're off to Costco to buy some wonderful 'Kirkland" brand, canned albacore tuna fish (it's to die for), apples and whatever else looks good!
