Showers

 We had a heavy shower yesterday afternoon, some during the night as everything was wet this morning when we got up.  Today started with nice bright sunshine, so we were planning on going for a long ride,  the forecast indicated we could get thunder showers, so we decided tomorrow would be a better day, hopefully.  It was a wise decision, because it is now raining.   Hubby wanted to go for a ride as he said he now is in a wondering mood since we went away last weekend.   Last weekend!!!!!where did that time go.

As I have mentioned on earlier posts our quilting guild is making placemats for the Meals on Wheels clients, our goal was for 240 by Christmas, the ones that were collected on Thursday night totalled 170, wow!  we have been a busy group during the past couple of months.   Just a few more and our quota will be reached.

 Hubby retired from his job last year in March, odd jobs around the house and his daughter's have kept him busy, now he is having trouble finding something to do.   It is a good thing the Olympics are on TV at the present time as he has been watching a lot of different sports.   He has finally discovered TV,  in the past when he was teaching, and most recently driving a parara transit bus, he never watched it.  Don't get me wrong, he does a lot of work around the house and yard, but once the lawns and hedge are cut, there is not much left to do.  Plus the weather has not really been co-operating either.

One of Hubby;s grandsons had a birthday during the week, he was 21 years old, and the family was going to have a dinner outside tonight, however, he was not feel well, so it has been postponed until next Thursday,   

Not much happening around the estate today, we do need to empty the Gypsy moth  and Japanese beetle traps but that will be done later today.

Dinner tonight, Pulled pork on a bun, veg and salad.  dessert I still have a couple of the boston cream cupcakes, and rhubarb squares that need to be eaten.
