It has been misting rain here most all day. I made cream of potato soup with rivels and sent some home with Amber and Alyssa, also sent home half of the small strawberry rhubarb pie I got yesterday at Meijer. They stopped in after school and we had a nice visit. Just some house work done today but not as much done as I would have like to have gotten done. Hope everyone keeps well and safe.

Misting rain here too?! It's supposed to be sunny, but alas no.

Taking my son out for a steak. He's a big ol' adult now. I'm leaving in minutes, and I am ready! Cake with family will be at my mom's on Sunday. Tonight, it's just me and him.

Another day of sunshine in The Sunshine State. Into the 90s again. Boring. Leaving for a cruise early Monday morning, so the luggage is down (not out, the cat gets wiggy) and I have begun sorting through clothes. This one is different, we begin in cool Vancouver, cruise through the Panama Canal (darned hot thank you) and end up in Ft. Lauderdale. Gotta pack for hot and cool weather.

Jim, I think it's funny that Tony tries to stow away in your luggage. He just wants to go on a cruise too :-)

Hubs was going to make pumpkin pies for the schools PTO tonight but someone at work ask him to change shifts with them so he was off today and made the pies this morning. He made 6 for school and 2 for home. Yum.

I love pumpkin pie which is why i really didnt want two of them here one would be plenty. I could send 7 in to school tomorrow, but I can't find my will power.

I roasted a 9 pound chicken today and had whipped potatoes, gravy, peas and since I had some cranberries I threw them in a small sauce pan with a sliced up orange and a T of sugar and simmered it. Pie for dessert. Tomorrow I will boil the carcass, strain and freeze the broth. Lots of chicken left so that will get frozen also for soup or a casserole.

Now I'm resting and thinking about a shower. I have a large load of microfiber house cleaning cloths in the washer now, sanitize cycle, low spin, Omo detergent from Brazil. LOL

Kath I bet you can't wait for your weeks vacation time. Enjoy it.

I met my property manager @ the rental, tenant is on vacation for a few days. She showed it 4 times in an hour, while I hung out w/ the neighbors. Got caught up on what they were all up to. Everyone who saw the rental liked it, but it won't be available until December 1. So people would need to stay with friends for a month...? Anyway, It's rented. The market is just nuts!

I got piles of FREE flagstone off CL, stepping stone sized, and started putting in a flagstone and pebble path @ the rental. DH took off early and joined me.

Our friends mom is visiting from Maryland, here in her RV. Trying to plan a photo trip to see migrating cranes w/ everyone.
