Saturday, May 2 – Visitors, Visitors and More Visitors

 

Today started very normal for us. We had our coffee while reading blogs and computering.

Around noon the Millers came to visit

They came to see our new home.

I made French bread pizza and salad for lunch. We had cookies for dessert.

It was nice to sit and talk with our nieces and nephew.

Jennifer, Jesse, Ginger and Alyssa

Jennifer, Charles, Marilyn, Jesse and AlyssaThey were not able to stay very long because Jennifer had riding practice. She has been riding horses for a couple of years now and really enjoys her time riding.

We sat outside after they left awaiting our next visitors. Mitchell, Margaret, Toby and Bailey were coming for the evening.

First thing on the agenda was to walk the boys

Then we had dinner. I steamed some shrimp while Jesse grilled some hamburgers and hot dogs on the grill. I also served macaroni salad and green salad.

We sat and visited while letting our meal settle.

Margaret and Toby

Mitchell and Bailey

We played Sequence and the girls beat the guys 3 games to 2 . Hey girls!!

I made cherry dump cake and served ice cream with toppings for dessert.

It was a great day having family visit our new home. It was fun to entertain again.

Tomorrow we are going to visit M&M in PA.

Friday, May 1 – Just Hanging Out

 

We woke to rain again today. We were just lazy for the morning over our coffee and then Jesse went to visit his father.

I stayed home with the boys. I straightened up around the place and did a load of laundry. Then I got cleaned up and dressed to go to the grocery store.

When Jesse got home it was raining so we waited awhile to walk the boys before we left.

Once we returned I started dinner. Jesse grilled some chicken and shrimp while I steamed some fresh broccoli and put together a salad.

After dinner was all cleaned up we just relaxed for the rest of the evening.

Here are some pictures of the ducks we fed some bread. The boys we going wild as the ducks were right outside the RV door.

Hug to everyone!

Thursday, April 30 – Just another day

 

We woke to a cloudy day and wasted the morning away just hanging out at the Kram-a-lot.

I can’t help but reflect on my old life here in Baltimore, this would have been a very busy day for me. It is the fiscal year end for the company I worked for MAMI. I would get to work early and stay late to finish up the year end reports. 

We both had a bite for breakfast then we went to my podiatrist appointment.

My appointment was at 12:45, since the acupuncture seemed to have no effect, he gave me electro therapy again and told me to continue with the stretching and massage. This will be my last appointment with him, he said it would take awhile for the tendon to heal.

Afterwards we were hungry, so we went to a local place called Pizza Johns. It has been in business since 1966. It started as a small carryout pizza and sub shop. They made the best cheese steak subs we have ever eaten and use to go quite often.

Today it is a much larger place and you can eat in and they also serve beer and wine. Jesse got a cheese steak and I got a chicken filet. They we good, but not how Jesse remembers.

On our way home we stopped at the chicken farm to purchase some chicken to put in the freezer. When we lived here we bought all our chicken at Richardson Farms. They raise and butcher them right there and are fresh.

We also stopped at the seafood place and purchased shrimp, they have a special on Thursdays and I wanted some for the freezer.

After returning home and getting everything ready for the freezer, we sat outside for awhile. Jesse took a nap and I talked on the phone and had a cocktail.

Once we came in we watched a recorded show. We didn’t have dinner even though I planned it, but we just were not that hungry.

We both had ice cream for dessert while watching our regular show.

The pictures today are of my cactus that is blooming again

We are going to try for our trip again tomorrow if the weather is not too rainy. Until then stay safe!
