Good morning, Danish, Donuts, and Bagels in the Break Room. Mani/Pedi with a friend today.

sports and chores.

T.G.I.F.

Good morning, Danish, Donuts, and Bagels in the Break Room. Shopping is on the agenda today. Working the kitchen for our dinner at the Eagles tonight, Trivia to follow.

Our new washer and dryer should be here today. We've been without a dryer for a month, which has added another layer of stress to our lives, having to run over to a neighbour's house every week. I originally ordered from Costco specifically because the delivery time was so short, and then they changed it to mid-August, which was a deal-breaker. I ended up running around every furniture store in town until I found a decent set that could be delivered quickly.

We're still having mostly windy days, which takes a lot of the sting out of John not being able to go boating. This is just like last year -- we were only able to get out about 15 times all summer. Strange weather patterns.

Sumatra dark roast and Fiji water bottles in the break room

hope they arrive today hagatha

Have fun tonight connie

Enjoying the quiet

Canning dill pickles today and put on a batch of bread and butter pickles to brine overnight. Will finish them up tomorrow. Going out to pick my first big tomato today - don't know if it's 100% ripe, but it's real red and down low. Those are the ones the turtles help themselves to!

same thing.

family, you always say you do the same thing every day. If you aren't outside doing anything, I hope you are at least getting in some good gaming time!

Good morning, Danish, Donuts, and Bagels in the Break Room. Breakfast at the Eagles today, then District meeting at Kissimmee.

Just coffee for me this morning. We have a plethora of cucumbers and I'm making a batch of bread and butter pickles today. Hubby made 9 quarts of dill pickles yesterday. Since I have e LOT of pickles from last year on the shelves from last year, we will not be lacking pickles this winter! Had our first big red tomato from the garden yesterday - heavenly!

Good morning family, connie and Draclvr ... Happy Sunday to you and everyone else that makes it to the Break Room today

I brought my favorite Sumatra dark roast and a pitcher of OJ for the Break Room.

I'm off to work in a bit and wish you all a wonderful day

Sumatra coffee sounds about right.

Nothing much planned for today, since the neighbourhood guys are gathering here to watch the soccer final and it will be noisy.

Our tomatoes are lagging badly because in all the chaos with John's health I neglected to pinch them, so we have lots of leaves and not too many flowers. Oh well. The other crop is doing just fine

Good morning all! Just got back from a lovely 9 day vacation on Oak Island in North Carolina. It was an adventure and I'm happy to be home. I feel like a need another vacation from my vacation.

Good to see you all again!

Welcome back, Ana! Sounds you need a couple of days to catch your breath!

hagatha, I never, never pinch my tomatoes. Yes, there is a lot of "green," but in our hot climate, all the devoted pinchers have sunscald on their tomatoes because there isn't enough protection from the sun. I follow a lot of tomato research on a couple of university websites and they all say pinching does not get you more tomatoes and may even reduce your harvest! Now, the caveat is that you need really good support when you allow an indeterminate tomato plant to grow to its full size! If all you do is stake them, then pinching might be a good idea.

Hi BrownEyedTigre

Nice to see you posting again and hope your holiday was fantastic !!

And yes, "needing a holiday after the holiday" sounds just like I used to feel - in the days when I still took holidays, that is

court shows and even perry mason, and chores, starting with perry mason, america court with judge kevin ross, the people court, judge greg mathis, justice with judge mablean ,the verdict with judge hatchett, judge judy.

Work was good today ... five more busy days to go

Welcome home Ana

hi family, you mentioned watching Perry Mason, is this the Old P.M. or is this the New remake of Perry Mason? if it is the new Perry Mason, is this Season 2? or are you re-watching season 1?
thanks

Good morning, Danish, Donuts, and Bagels in the Break Room. Lunch and Netflix with a friend today.

same thing.

Good afternoon all

Wow, Starcom, I didn't know there was a remake of Perry Mason

Enjoy the show connie

Hey ho family, have a good day

Hi Soot,
Yes they did do a remake in 2020 starring "Emmy Award winner Matthew Rhys of the Fantastic TV show The Americans who is playing Perry Mason". The start of season 2 has yet to be decided on the start date.
The only this with this Remake is, if you watched the Old Perry Mason like I did, Wow, it is much more violent and contains Nudity which one did not see in the Old Perry Mason TV Series, so it takes getting used to, and of course, for Old farts like me, it will never beat the Oldie Goldie P.M. series.

Good morning, Danish, Donuts, and Bagels in the Break Room.

NOW it's time to sit down for a cup or two of coffee! I just dropped Wally off at the vet for his annual checkup and immunizations! They still don't allow anyone in the building except employees, so he may end of staying overnight as they were totally booked with appts. today. Wally was a feral kitten who was dumped out here about 3 years ago. It took us about 3 months to get him friendly enough that we could catch him and get him in to be neutered and get immunizations. He's strictly a barn cat and spends most of his time hunting small varmints in the woods and the pasture. But hubby saw him this morning and snatched him up and managed to get him in the cat carrier with only one major bleeding incident! We are both on a blood thinner, so it doesn't take much!

Think I'll splurge on a cinnamon crunch bagel. Thanks, connie!
