I am offering belated WTGs and POTBs to Harriet’s dgs on the Honors Program offer, and to Dgd with softball accomplishments! Those are definitely worth a brag, Harriet!
Also congrats to Twins’ dd on the new job offer!
I know there are MANY other praiseworthy happenings all through the village, but I’m on my phone AND I am doing my indoor walking at the same time.
No other praiseworthy happenings here, except I have done laundry and cared for a grandchild all day.
Dgs required very little. I refused his request to play ball — grass is too high and (TMI?) I have had a pain in a very sensitive area… probably the result of a few pounds weight gain making pants too short in the stride… so, an embarrassing sort of ailment that I did NOT try to explain to dgs.
I took him for lunch and then swapped him for Dgd.
She required a lot. We played Clue (2 versions) and we had a talent show and we played Bingo and some other little games from ds’ childhood. Whew. She did let me take a short nap.
She’s spending tonight (so dgs doesn’t get ahead of her.)
Doctor’s appointment tomorrow “wellness checkup.”
Then we’ll be watching for the arrival of predicted storms from your direction, LadyM.
Ironic timing, in a way. Some of the worst storms our area ever experienced was April 3, 1974. Were any of you affected by that outbreak?
We were not, directly, but my dad had a first cousin who was killed. One of my classmates was killed, along with all six members of his family. I was in 7th grade. My homeroom teacher’s house was blown away. We spent the night in a friend’s basement, which was full of other friends and neighbors.
The next week, my brick mason gf started a VERY busy period of building storm houses all over the county.
