Most people are shocked when they find out how bad I am as an electrician

Into the abyss I poured myself…summer is coming to an end so the garden must be torn out and replaced with winter veggies in the next few weeks. So it begins, today it was the back yard and a start in the front yard.

The tomatoes have been super and we have enjoyed them but now we are down to the last 100 or so! Watermelon and pumpkins are doing just fine and the grapes and figs are going wild!

Several hours later, it was looking better. The trash cans were full to the brim and me and Ben Gay had an appointment when I entered the house! I checked my pedometer and I put on two miles just walking around the yard. Didn’t move fast but I moved!

In the afternoon, I did a wine run and got four cases of our special wine. Dropping by the hardware store, I shopped the tool section and alas, I needed zip nadda nuthin’! Wow! The 60 gallon upright stationary two-stage air compressor was giving me the eye but I need to find a place for it and a 220 VAC outlet…probably outside the garage!

Our daughter Colleen is getting into genealogy so I assisted her by updating our family website with more pictures and explanation of who was who! Thanks to Colleen I have made connections with several cousins, cousins one removed and cosins twice removed. Great fun and to a person they are conservatives! Yeah! We have good genes!

The Liles’ side circa 1945

We watched TV for a while and then decided it was time to get ready for tonights dancing. It was fun!

We got gussied up and headed for Garden Grove to listen to Full Spectrum…super music albeit a little loud. We dance and dined with the Zaitz until about 9:30 PM and we all turned into old folks! Tonight they were serving lemon chicken with capors and it was just fantastic!

One of our many friends does jigsaw puzzles and I asked him if it was OK to stop a puzzle and put it back in thebox! He asked why and I told him the crrent puzzle is a Christmas scene…snow…sleighs…etc. I just can’t get it started. I got the OK to stop!

On the way home we listened to conservative radio and I could not pass this up! That woman is a genuine dufus!

Coo-Coo for Coco Puffs!

We watched TV and crashed after some additional episodes of Grey’s and ER. Tomorrow should be a restful day.

About Paul

Just an old retired guy trying to finish out my last years on this planet. I lost my best friend and wife in early 2020. I was blessed again by reconnecting with Dr. Mary Côté, a long-time friend.
