After getting our morning chores done, Mark headed to the post office with the few eBay sales packages. Mag-Pies Glitter is moving stock ... A car charm, black braided necklace, and a vintage necklace. Oh yeah, and a Hill Tribe dragonfly pendant for $40. It's certainly not busy like the winter months, but at least a few things sold.
As promised, after a long diatribe in yesterday's blog, I'll catch you up on last night ...
We met Randy at the Hideaway for drinkies and eats. Dawn worked until 5 then arrived about 530. Robbie came along for an outing. Although it was jampacked, we found a table and gathered five chairs. Yes, you guessed it, a chair for Robs. LOL. (If he sits on the deck, he gets gnats buzzing his ears.)
What a handsome Scottie ... and a perfect Southern gentleman just like our ol' Shiloh.
Rob Nichols was singing ... but the music was cranked so loud, it was crackly and distorted. Too bad. Anyway, we had good food, good drinks and lots to watch! One lovely (male) patron was pole dancing around a 6x6 support pole. Cool. Haha. Another was jiggling the deck, "dancing" ...
Robbie turned around to watch, thinking there was an earthquake. Haha.
Yesterday would have been Linda's and Randy's 35th wedding anniversary. I know he was feeling sad and we were all aware of the date. It made me think of dozen people at their Transcona wedding who are no longer with us. The "first" of all events is extra tough.
So, back to the present. Tom from Simplex arrived about 1ish with shingles for the crew. They'd been working since 10 o'clock with flashing and such. It'll be done today ... except we've asked Tom to do the gutters on the rest of the front. (Mark was going to do them, but it'll look nicer if all matches!)
Our lunch today was Randy's delicious (and filling) homemade seafood chowder. After, we watched the British Open finale and relaxed.
The Ray Donovan show today, Season 2, Episode 7 was great ... such a dysfunctional group; we were laughing!
Olivia's shower invitation arrived today. Since we can't make both the shower and wedding, we shopped Bed Bath & Beyond for a gift and chose bathroom towels and shower curtain.
That's it for today. We'll be planning a wedding trip in September to Ashland, Mississippi; near Memphis.
