Happy Birthday to our oldest grandson, Jonathan! Thirty-five years young, he and Sarah were such a joy to be with this summer as we toured the Caribbean together.
Jon and Lady Sarah!
This morning, we took it slow and got our coffee before walking through the garden. We made a list of things to do before getting ready for Girls’ Night Out.
Girls’ Night Out was fun, as Sydney joined us today along with Gail Petersen. We returned home via Trader Joe’s and loaded up on Two-Buck Chuck!
We stopped at the barbershop, and I had the beard trimmed by a professional; it looks good now. Mary calls me the professor.
We worked in the yard planting lettuce and string beans. While Mary planted, I decided to bolt the rat trip to the top of the fence. The rats are taking the bait, but in the process, they keep knocking the bait box off the wall! No more—the box is bolted to the fence, and the rats will not have a chance!
Robin popped by, and she and Mary worked at the computer for a couple of hours, making decisions on our travel and health insurance for the upcoming adventure. Mary bought the insurance for the adventure and we settled in on our business class flights to and from South America. We were lucky that Robin had just been there!
This will be a real adventure, three weeks on the ocean visiting places we have only ready about!
The girls were slaving away at the computer with a lot of laughing a giggling going on!
They make a good team!!!
We continued working in the office until 10:30 pm and then crashed! Mary paid bills and I worked on the Daily Diary. I did find out that I double paid the charge card… I have no idea how I did that but they will get two checks today!
