Happy St. Patrick's Day

Hoping everyone is having a good St. Pat's Day, no green beer for me, don't even like beer.   As mentioned many times, we live in a University city, which is a short distance from us, so is the drinking establishments the students frequent now the pandemic restrictions have been lifted.  They will be out in full force during the day and night as most of the bars have special programs and drinks for those who indulge. And, indulge they do, several years ago, the university and college students had a huge party of thousands, did a lot of damage and several were injured.  Police are going to be keeping small gatherings in check so not to have the same issue again.  Social media does not help as one person invites a friend and then it snowballs until everyone and all are on the streets involved in everything imaginable.  The University and college both received bad reviews as a result of this.  I am hoping all this partying does not make the virus spread like wildfire again.  Coupled with today, this is March break week, some families have travelled to parts unknown to get some  sun and R and R.  So we shall see in a couple of weeks the results of mid March madness.  

Today is another glorious day, I cannot stay in the house, plan are getting some leaves picked up from one of the back flower beds, going for a walk and we are planning on having our lunch out on the balcony.  
Will have to make the most of it as rain is in the forecast for tomorrow and Saturday.  

My DIL is still OK, now home but no surgery done yet and she indicated last night in a conversation, it likely will not take place until sometime in May.  Apparently, a ruptured appendix is treated a lot different than when I had mine removed back in the 1950's.  

Dinner, shaved beef baked potato, veg and salad.  Need to see what we can have for dessert, maybe some lemon poke cake which is in the freezer.   Yep, dinner all sorted, now outside I go.


Have a great day.

  1. Sounds as though they have a very very jolly time, but not so good for others around. While sitting in a cafe this morning a young lady went past dressed like an Irish Gnome, I think we weren't the only ones smiling at her.. nice to read you've found someone to have some happiness with. I too found someone and he is wonderful, we've been married for 16 years.
