Well, lots going on today, but no exciting photos! Kelly’s boys had appointments in Claysville this morning so they left about 9am. The boys were NOT happy. Neither was I. I could have used a few more days with them all. Next time!

Open wide, boys!

After they left I took the boxes of treasures upstairs that we had salvaged from Mom’s items. I was able to fit them all in the tray of Grandad’s trunk. Then I had a box of memories from my own childhood stored in a bin under the steps, so I put all of that in the bottom of the trunk. Still room for more once the Skunk Hollow cousins go through ‘Jess and Erma’s’ things.

Greg and Lynn needed a document notarized, and it was nice to visit with them for a bit. I always love spending time with them, even if it’s just a short time.

So I had procrastinated enough and set about cleaning the house and doing laundry. I finished about 4pm, then got a shower and changed. I met Mary at Giannilli’s (Carbon) at 5pm and we had a nice dinner. We both had angel hair pasta. I really never eat pasta so it’s a special treat for me – very good, both the food and the conversation!

So now I am working on the Word Garden, and that will complete my evening. Work tomorrow!

This is cute!

February 16 – tell about your first kiss. “Frank Redinger was in my class at Davis School. His sister Vera & my brother Jim would take us with them when they went out riding in the evening. They kept teasing us one night about kissing. I guess we thought that was what they wanted us to do so we kissed. Nothing very exciting but we pretended it was something great. We liked each other for a long time. He is a nice person today.”

Yesterday’s vacation destination was Laurel, Mississippi, and the picture posted was of the General Store that Napier’s own. I have been binge-watching HOME TOWN (staring Ben and Erin Napier) and thought I’d see what there was to do. It really is a small town! Lots of antique and gift shops. Other things to do – Bowling, lake site cabins, specialty and gift shops, paint and pottery studios, resale shops, Art Galleries, Laurel Mercantile  (another Napier shop), Parks, fountains, historic buildings, bed & breakfasts, fishing and boating, playgrounds, peaceful walks.

It is what it is!

Calendar inspiration is: When times are tough, it’s a blessing to have a soul mate to share everything with.  A special relationship matters!  (Let me add here that a ‘bosom buddy’ can be your best friend – can be of either sex!)

Is that a festival? That would be fun!

TOMORROW February 17 is:

I hope your random act of kindness is NOT giving someone cabbage! Have a Terrific Thursday and be kind. God bless…
