Things are heating Up

 The last couple of days have been beautiful.  No rain, just a lot of sunshine and along with the sun comes the heat.  The Air Conditioner is coming on earlier in the afternoon now.

Yesterday I slept until just after 0800 and shortly after Jim got up!  Late for me, early for him.  😄 We ran out of dry cereal a few days back and I've been making oatmeal or grits for our breakfast.  We still have some leftovers from dining out so we've concentrated on that to clean out the fridge.

Jim did go to the fitness center we have here and did a workout doing the new exercises he was given at PT last Tuesday.  He's a bit sore but I'm proud of him for working on his balance.  I was working on some cards so didn't go with him.  Maybe next time!

Today we were up early.  0630 for me and 0800 for Jim.  We were going to Costco with Sonsearae!  She picked us up around 0900 and this is a good time to shop, very few people so we had plenty of time to look around.  We managed to buy some unnecessary food items but everything will get eaten in time.  Also got a non skid rug for in front of Jim's chair and he got a Land's End t-shirt.  When we left here it was to pick up some cupcakes for a party tomorrow night.

Next stop was our house to drop off Jim and stash my groceries. He took a nap because we wore him out, bless his heart.  Then we headed to a friends house to drop off a brisket and potatoes and the cupcakes.  It was nice seeing this friend again.  Now it was time to drop off Sonsearae's groceries and head to Publix!  Neither one of us bought much but we're now set with fresh food for a few days

Last stop was Starbucks for some icy cold coffee!  Our daughter then dropped me off at home and I spent the next 45 minutes or so getting everything put away.  I also threw some clothes in the dryer and folded them when they dried.

Yesterday I didn't get up until 0810!  Nice little sleep in for me.  Jim got up around 0930.  We didn't have anyplace to be until 1300 for his PT session.  I did a load of laundry and ran the dishwasher.

After PT we came home, I had leftover ravioli for lunch and Jim took a nap.  I spent my time reading and playing games

Around 1800 Sonsearae and Chris picked us up for the wine dinner at Carrabbas.  It was nice having Chris with us.  The dinner was super as was the wine.  I think we all enjoyed the family time

Back home it didn't take us long to change and get comfortable. Jim watched YouTube and I got caught up on my game, did some reading and we were in bed shortly after 2200.

I was up this morning shortly after 0700.  Coffee and grits for breakfast. I was pleasantly surprised the glucose was 120! That's low for me. I test every other day and I wasn't sure what to expect after that rich, delicious dinner last night.

Lazy day for us.  I did a little cleaning and we both had naps.  Leftover ravioli for me and Jim had a sandwich of some sort for lunch.  For dinner I had some fettuccini leftover from last night and Jim had teriyaki chicken and fried rice another leftover from lunch on Monday.  

It's 87 degrees outside and it's almost 2100.  The AC hasn't been on all day but we'll run it overnight
