Re: Wey River Wednesday

I'm not familiar with the Wey River, so this is interesting, Kitty. Sounds like your day is going along smoothly. Yay for an easy admission for Matilda.
I hope your day is going along smoothly as well, trissie.
Have fun at swim lessons, L Ann.
WTG on your TaDas already, Bama.
It was really really nice to see JT last night! And her dh CT too, though I was closer to JT. LOL! Although, CT is the one who tutored me in Hebrew until I could join a university level class, 2nd semester. (He got his PhD in ancient languages.) She was a good friend before they moved away, probably 12 years ago. I miss her a lot.
Dh is really stressed. He may not even have time to eat dinner with me tonight, so I'm not really going to cook tonight - I'll just heat up the rotisserie chicken that needs to be eaten and make some rice and a salad. I'll eat it with hummus.
Our forecast is for rain this afternoon; it does look a bit gray, though the sun is managing to shine through the clouds.
