When You're Hot, You're Hot!

 This past week we've been hitting three digits of at least 100.  In order to sleep the AC runs most of the night.  We do use fans day and night and we're not uncomfortable, but going outside elicits complaints from Jim.  I am reminded of the summer we spent in the Rio Grande Valley.  Siestas are part of our life even here in Tallahassee!

Jim has been working on his balance issues and adjusting to the neuropathy in his feet.  I hope he continues to do his exercises.  We both should use the gym here in the complex.  We went down a few days ago and I managed to use a few of the machines...but we need to make it a habit.




I won a contest!

A Little Rain, Sunshine and our Anniversary

Friday I was up just after 0600...Sun was barely beginning to show herself.  I guess the days are getting shorter.  Do you favor ending the daylight savings time?  It doesn't matter to me, each day of the week runs into the next as do the hours.  But for folks who work and school children it could be impactful.

Blueberries and shredded wheat for my breakfast.  Jim had some cheerios with strawberries.  So healthy!  For lunch it was red beans and rice.  I always chop up onion and celery to put on top, gives the dish some crunch.

Our weekend wasn't all that exciting.  We had rain a few times and the afternoon heats up.  

Sunday was our 52nd anniversary.  Sonsearae fixed us a spaghetti dinner.  I gave Jim a card that I had made.  Sara Jane sent us a card, it was so thoughtful of her to remember

Monday Jim and I had lunch at Carrabba's.  Pasta dishes, Caesar salad and a pitcher of sangria.  Might have to skip the pitcher next time because it just makes us sleepy!  Came home and napped (passed out?).

Today we had the pleasure of going to Publix!  I needed blueberries and shredded wheat.  We got two bags of pita chips free!  Publix has a policy that if something rings up incorrectly you get it free.  These chips we're BOGO and they charged us full price for both.  I like free!
