I have to drop my friend at work at 10 them I am meeting an old friend for lunch
We have been friends for almost 30 years,since I lived in NJ, he moved down here 5 years before I did
He bought a house in one of our Historic districts and is rehabbing it So I am going to meet him at 11 and he is taking me to see the house then we are going for lunch
Since I have an hour between dropping my friend and meeting him I am going return a few things at Beals which is on the way
This afternoon will be exercise time it is only gong to reach 63 today so I am thinking a nice long walk outside will be invigorating
I will probably take lola with me she has been crazy full of energy lately and it might wear some of it out of her
I'm waiting for the sun to come up so I can take a brisk walk this morning. Max has yet to show his little face so I am thinking I will be without a dog this morning.
Besides my walk I have laundry, and house picking up to do, also need to get M&M motivated to put up their small stocking stuffer presents! I think my trip to the library will become a reality today and my car needs some interior cleaning too. In other words my last day off work will be filled with things I should have been doing daily for quite a while!
My little Natalie has an ear infection, she sure did look pale on Christmas day and the doctor did order antiobiotics for her over the weekend so she did not get worse. Got new pictures of them for Christmas and in one of them Austin looks like a little stinker...........lol which he is
Sandy-I hope Natalie feels better.
Good luck with the cleaning.
Cleaning and organizing to be done today. we also need to go to the bank and back to the storage building. Time to get some stuff off the motor home and packed away.
It is a beautiful sunny.....and cooler day today. I amy take a nice long walk later.
Location: Finally made it to Florida and lovin' every minute!

Oh, my. Errands this morning turned into an all day project.
We both walked at least 4 miles today.
Then, it was off to The City. First stop to the Credit UNion to cash a check, then to the VA to see if he can "fire" his current dr. and get a new one, then to the mall where we got my good jewelry checked and the new earrings are being sent to have screw-backs put on them so I won't lose them, stopped at the Hallmark store for a box of thank you's only to discover that they were closing so everything was 40% off so I got some good deals plus had a $5 off a $10 purchase which was better, went to the Verizon store to up our minutes and get 2 new free phones, went for Chinese, then stopped at a restaurant supply for a couple of items we couldn't find anywhere else. Whew!
Morning ladies
Pattie - new earrings !! Did santa bring them ?
Sandy- sending get wishes for Natalie It's so hard when little ones are sick
Lisa - You have stuff that you leave in FL ?
lol every time you mention the storage place it reminds me of the show Storage Wars that hubby & I have been watching
Where they auction off the units that are abandoned
Have you ever seen one of the auctions at your storage place ?
Connie- (hugs) I know the first day with Billy going back home must of sucked
Any news from the TV folks if they are going to be putting the exercises back on ?
Does the local cable company offer them ?
Yesterday was very nice but very long The house is very cool lol it was actually cold no heat in the house,it was built in 1905
He has done a lot of work already new siding renovated the windows
Since it is in a historical district he has to keep things the same and things must go through the preservation committee.
He is doing a lot of the work himself and has found a millwork place that can reproduce the original missing woodwork pieces
It is going to be really nice when he is done. he said he is almost to the expensive parts putting in the new drywall as well as the heating & AC
We went to a great little place for lunch and I got home around 3
Got some work done and finally finished up around 6
Sounds interesting Karla, is he living there while renovating it? Could get mighty cold. I had friends in AL that bought a historical house and were renovating it while living there, they had heaters because the house did not have heat.
Little Natalie is feeling better but not yet up to par she should be much better today being as it will be the fifth day on her meds (Kim took her off them on Saturday thinking it was just a cold, I told her on Sunday to put her back on them because she looked very sick).

Glad Nat's feeling a little better, Sandy.
Yes, Karla. Santa was good to me again this year. Among other things, he brought me a nice pair of those Journey earrings with the 3 graduated diamonds. Very pretty.
Oh Pattie how nice I got Dr. Scholl shoes and was in 7th heaven! I would think I had died and gone to heaven if I got diamonds (actually Bob used to buy me diamonds, now his thinking is "she buys what she wants"). Lol gotta love that man!
Karla-DH likes to watch the storage war shows. In all the places we have been around the country, we have never seen a storage auction or even an ad. I imagine it's not "too" common and the people who do the auctions travel around and have a client list.
After we sold the house so unexpectedly we had to get small storage unit. We had tools, food(I'm a stocker), extra clothes, pictures, a couple of rugs and some misc. extras in the house that can't fit in the van while we are living in it. We are lucky "we" can live in it, lol. Anyway, we have been going through some of the boxes and consolidating. We have to bring it all home when we go back to TN. Yeah...we will be like Sanford and Son
The house sounds like it will be very nice when it is done. Good luck to your friend and his vision. DH and I don''t do historical homes. Too much red tape and too much money. Hubby and I don"t do well with other people's rules
Pattie-Wow...your Christmas continues. Sounds like a busy day.
I love going to restaurant supply stores. They have so many cool things
Sandy-I'm glad Natalie is feeling better. My DH is the same way. I buy what I want. I would cringe if hubby tried to buy me jewelry. I am way way too picky. About 98% of the jewelry out there I just don't like
