It’s Monday, and that means the gym awaits us!\u00a0 We did not go last week as Mary had a cold.\u00a0 Today, we arrive, and they have added two more torture machines.\u00a0 \u00a0They looked a lot like a guillotine without the blade!\u00a0 Jeepers, what will they think of next?<\/p>\n
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?<\/p>\n
Being the loving husband, I transported the grocery bags from the car to the kitchen and then changed into my gardening costume.\u00a0 \u00a0For gardening, I prefer attire that lets the sun shine where it usually doesn’t.\u00a0 It serves two purposes: 1) I get that all-over tan look, and 2) it scares the birds away!<\/p>\n
Sometimes I remember stuff!<\/p>\n

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!”<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n

Getting watered evenly will make a difference!<\/p><\/div>\n
We watched TV for a bit, but I crashed early, leaving Mary to her needlepoint.\u00a0 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!\u00a0 You can never tell what the freeway traffic will be.<\/p>\n
