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!

I've been lazy again!

Sunday, we had Cuban sandwiches with Sonsearae and Chris at their house.  The guys enjoyed them. I've never had one, but I did taste the pork that was used. Quite tasty.  Veggie tray with dip, nuts and blueberries is what I chose to eat.  Sonsearae also made blueberry muffins for dessert.

Sonsearae has excellent skills at finding good deals on cruises.  So, we finally found a price we liked for a Margarita Cruise, we're booked for October and will go to Key West, Cozumel, Belize and Roatan.  Seven days and we'll leave from Tampa

Monday, I got my hair cut, while Jim went to the car wash.


  

We then met Sonsearae at Casa Grande for a delicious lunch.  We all had tacos of some sort.  Chips and salsa for the table. Sonsearae had a margarita, I had a beer and Jim chose iced tea.  Then we sent Jim home while we ladies went to Whole Food to get our cream (they were out) and a few other things.

She and I also stopped a new to us farm market.  I thought the prices were kinda high. 

Tuesday Jim had two appointments one at the hospital for an EKG, the other at the VA for PT.  In between we had lunch at home.  After PT we stopped and let Louis out at Sonsearae's request.  She usually drives home from work during her lunch break but she was working a bit further away.  On the way home we stopped at Starbucks for cold drinks that are much to sweet but really a treat!

I started watching the Avengers on my tablet while Jim watched who knows what on his tablet

Today was a very hot day.  Official temperature was 101 degrees.  Might as well be in south Texas!  But I'd rather be in Colorado.  We didn't go anywhere; our lunch was coconut shrimp and Caesar salad. Jim took a late nap.  I finished the above cards
