Happy Saturday

Change of plans - again.  Probably ditching the Farmers Market ... it's HOT already and we're going to be outside most of the day.  We might decide for a quick run to get tomatoes (me) and pastries (hubby).  He's still sleeping so we need to figure it out.

Yesterday was fun with my DIL and grand-doggies ... but tiring.  Their new apartment is nice and totally "young, urban" style living.  Happy for them.

Instead of a coffee treat, I bought a juice from one of those fancy juice places in the city (it's right next to their building entrance).  Spinach, pineapple, cucumber and water -- nothing else.  I was excited and thought I found "my thing" when I visit them.  A SMALL plastic cup -- $10.  OMG.  I didn't even look at the price.  Sticker shock.  It's NOT my new thing.  In fact, it's my first and LAST one ever.

In the name of NOT hibernating, I was searching for some fun things to add to the calendar and I found something FANTASTIC!  A local winery has a harvest day in late September (or early October) -- volunteer all morning and then a vineyard lunch.  They'll train you.  I'm signed up with my aunt and I put feelers out to friends if they're interested.  I didn't care if anyone was interested -- that's the kind of thing I'll happily do by myself.  It's up to Mother Nature to set the actual harvest day so you get notified last minute -- fingers crossed I can go (and my back/neck is okay).

Foster pup is sick -- the group of the 3 dogs is all bleeding and anemic.  Probably rat poison.  They are being treated and held.  Maybe getting him on Tuesday.  Poor babies.

Recursion -- Blake Crouch is kind of wacky.  It needs to come together or it's getting a thumbs down from me.  It's essentially a time-warp-travel book and there are so many "recursions" that it's confusing -- all in the name of plot conveniences.  I hope it's heading to an interesting ending.  I'll finish it (easy reading) and I'm over halfway.  Stay tuned ...

TREAT today is lake swimming with rescue peeps.

TOOL is acting confident and social.  I can get shy in some social situations -- most everyone is young, string bikini thin, perfectly tan and already good friends.  It's easy to feel like an odd man out.  Maybe I'll ask hubby to get a picture of me and my "bathing suit -- lake attire" --- it's a LOOK hah.

Later gators.
