How Did Monday Get Here So Fast??

Estimated reading time: 2 minutes

It’s Monday, and that means the gym awaits us!  We did not go last week as Mary had a cold.  Today, we arrive, and they have added two more torture machines.   They looked a lot like a guillotine without the blade!  Jeepers, what will they think of next?

After the torture treatment, we waddled next door to the Ralph’s market for sme milk and returned with 100 dollars worth of groceries; how does this happen?

Being the loving husband, I transported the grocery bags from the car to the kitchen and then changed into my gardening costume.   For gardening, I prefer attire that lets the sun shine where it usually doesn’t.  It serves two purposes: 1) I get that all-over tan look, and 2) it scares the birds away!

Sometimes I remember stuff!

I rode a HOG for a long time!

Mary baked another tomato pie later in the afternoon, and we watched the latest monkey movie entitled “Blah Blah Blah and the Return From the Planet of the Apes!”

At 6:30 pm, we wandered over to Jeff’s to pay a visit and bring him some peach pie we found at Ralphs’ earlier, and of course, some tomato pie.

Just before dark, I checked the high-rise planters, and all the pockets were moist, meaning my ideas about poking the existing holes and clearing away the debris and roots worked perfectly.

Getting watered evenly will make a difference!

We watched TV for a bit, but I crashed early, leaving Mary to her needlepoint.  We have to be up and moving at 5:00 am because we are having a Mose procedure on my arm at 8:00 am in Long Beach!  You can never tell what the freeway traffic will be.
