Saturday and Sunday

Pretty quiet around here.  Most of Saturday was wet and gloomy....and chilly!  Jim decided to be 'under the weather' and was back in bed before noon.  Not sure what's going on, could be several things combined.  Food choices, new vitamins and perhaps he just doesn't like cold, damp weather.  He's also been working and his body is rebelling with sore muscles.   Of course, he's not as young as he thinks is!

So our meals weren't all that great yesterday...mostly soups and sandwiches.  Last night I wanted something that didn't include carbs so I had a bowl of radishes, celery and cauliflower.

Today?  Pretty much the same as yesterday only I think it's colder.  I know it was warmer when I got up this morning, it is now 55 at 1600.  I thought we'd have a sunny day as the sun was shining brightly....but then clouds moved in and even some rain early this afternoon.

While Jim napped I watched a James Bond movie, Tomorrow Never Dies with Pierce Brosnan.  I'm a big fan of the Bond movies...but not all the actors who portrayed him.  Sean Connery is my fave!  Are you a fan?

I also finished reading Artful Blogging.  I love the Somerset Studios magazines!  I wish they didn't cost so much.  I haven't renewed my subscriptions for this very reason.  I can always read them at Barnes and Nobles!  Have you checked my library page lately?  Just click on the library tab up at the top or here and you can check out the books and magazines I've been reading.  What magazines are your favorites?

As for today's meals....Jim had a smoothie for breakfast and I had soup...for lunch I had soup, Jim had a peanut butter sandwich. Not sure what we'll have for dinner...maybe a salad.

Dinner was biscuits and gravy, one of Jim's favorite dishes.  Me? not so much but it filled me up.  I must get to the store and buy some decent food!  I like salads, but not when it's wet and cold...chilly temperatures require stews, pasta dishes and soups.

This picture is from a few months ago at the Savannah Recreation Area....we very much enjoyed our stay there. Warm temperatures, gators and birds and lovely sunsets

Traipsing around Stuart

Tuesday turned into an errand day.  I mentioned to Jim that I wanted a haircut.  I decided the Treasure Coast Mall would be the place because Jim could walk while I got groomed!

Once Jim got up I started my chores.  I always do a load of laundry while we both have breakfast.  Once my food was gone and I had checked emails etc I headed up to get dressed and made the bed.

Then it was over to visit with Sonsearae.  She had me watch a segment of Ellen that had a very young James Bond fan.  He was so cute dressed like Bond.  He was also a very lucky fan because Ellen sent him to the Premier in Mexico to meet Daniel Craig and watch the  new film.

Back home Jim was shaving and getting dressed while I did dishes.  We discussed all the places we wanted to visit and the list kept getting longer.

First stop was the mall.  Master Cuts was empty, perhaps I was the first client of the day.  In any case I got my fur removed and I look much, much better.  Jim managed to do two circuits of the mall before calling it quits.

Next stop was Chili's for some lunch.  We had a gift certificate that covered our meal.  We both had water to drink.  From the lunch menu Jim ordered a couple of pork tacos and he had a bowl of soup.  I ordered a chipotle chicken bowl and went with a green salad for starters.  We brought home most of my chicken.

Next stop was Target where I dashed in and paid my bill.  I have one of the cards so I can save 5 percent when I shop there (which isn't much).  I pay the balance off each much.

Then it was off the the Humane Societies thrift store where I scored a Serape, two regular size pillow cases and a book of postcards for only 6 bucks.  The Mexican Serape was $2.50 and for some reason they called it a beach towel, I suppose it could be used as such.

I also popped into Habitat for Humanity's store across the street.  I don't recall ever going into one and I wanted to see what they carry.  This particular store had a lot of big furniture with bits and pieces of construction stuff.  Alas I left empty handed because the tub I had my eye on would not fit in the rig!

Our final stop was Nobile Shoe Shop.  Jim wanted to see about getting some inserts for his shoes.  We've stopped in before and they are most helpful with matters of the feet.  While we were there they built up his new insert to support his arch better.  I hope this helps his foot and his painful Plantar Fasiitis.

What are you reading?  I'm re-reading the Outlander Books.  Kindle offered them up for $1.99 awhile back and I snapped them up!  Having all 7 books makes me very happy.  Didn't get any reading done on this day

Back home Jim had to get the pine sap (remember I said the truck was parked outside?) off the truck and ended up washing it.  It's been parked under cover again.  It was 83 degrees outside when he did this task.  

We watched a few recorded shows.  Trying to catch up because we have to replace the DVR which arrived yesterday.  I guess the shows are IN the box and not IN a cloud.  I don't know.  We also watched NCIS,  Gibbs sure is looking scruffy not like his former Marine self.

During the night we had a rain shower.  Nothing heavy but it woke me and lulled me back to sleep.  When your roof is only a few feet above your head to tend to hear it when it rains.
