Shopping and Yard Work



July 5 -  Once I made Bill a nice breakfast I headed to JC Penney’s to use some coupons that expired today.  I wasn’t really looking for much but got 3 nice tops as I’m getting tired of the same old ones.  There was hardly anyone in the store.  That was nice, no crowds.

I started hemming my new shorts.  If they were petite they would be fine but I don’t like where they hit just below my knees.  I wrapped Shiloh’s birthday present for the end of the month in case we are not here. Things aren’t looking too good in that respect.  Bummer!

We made arrangements to meet friends on Friday in Lakeland for lunch; that will be a nice break. They had some medical issues this summer also and had to stay in sunny Florida also. We get along so well with them and really enjoy our time together.  This summer didn’t pan out for all of us to spend 6 weeks together as planned.

I worked out in the yard more and used the weed eater along the landscape lights and fixed one light.  I pulled a lot of kudzu that is trying to take over.  There’s some other vine growing also so I made a pile by the curb.  It looks so much better.  There were vines on my new fence, can’t have that!  I got out the weed spray and did around the lights and up our driveway.  At least it’s a start!
went to the office this afternoon and worked on my data project for a couple of hours, then went to see mom before going home.  She was pretty listless today.  Didn’t want to sit in her room, or in the lobby and it was too hot outside.  I forgot to take a treat so couldn’t settle her down with that.   I straightened her closet and took out some things that didn’t belong to her, nothing new.  Eventually she just got up and walked away.  She had no real social skills any more.  I should stick to mornings as she seems better earlier in the day.
I stopped at Aldi’s for a few things.  We started on our leftovers tonight.
