Don't wait around - Club points expire tomorrow
KR0GER points expire tonight, claim yours now
Anyway, I will have the revisions finished by tomorrow afternoon. I also wanted to ask if you saw the weather forecast for this weekend. It looks like it might actually stay dry for once, which would be great because I have been meaning to clean out the garage and finally organize those boxes from the move. If we finish early enough maybe we can grab lunch somewhere low-key. Nothing fancy, just a place with decent sandwiches and a quiet corner. Let me know what your schedule looks like and I will send over the updated file as soon as it is ready.

I have started using it in every spreadsheet and even in my email drafts now. The other thing I wanted to ask about is whether you still have that list of good hiking trails near the lake. I remember you sent it to me forever ago, but I must have archived the thread by accident. I am trying to get outside more on weekends when the weather allows, and I know you mentioned a few spots that are not too crowded early in the morning.
Also, I borrowed that book you recommended and finished it in two days. The ending surprised me, but in a good way. We should talk about it over coffee sometime. I have a few theories about what the author was trying to do with the last chapter, and I would love to hear your take. No rush on any of this, just thought I would check in while it was on my mind. Hope the rest of your week goes smoothly.

Today's reminder: convert your expiring Kroger points
|
||||||||||||||||
So I finally tackled that overgrown corner of the yard this weekend and it was honestly more work than I expected. The weeds had basically formed their own little ecosystem back there and I feel like I disturbed some very old tenants. But the sunlight hits that spot now and the whole yard looks about twenty percent less abandoned. I also repainted the mailbox post because it was peeling in that way that makes the whole house look tired, even though the house itself is fine. Small fixes make a weirdly big difference. On another note I watched that series everyone keeps mentioning and I made it through three episodes before deciding I need a break from anything intense. The pacing was so slow and the lighting was so dark that I kept checking if my screen brightness was broken. Anyway the weather is supposed to be decent later this week so I might finally wash the car, which I have been putting off since last month. The bird situation is getting out of hand again too. They found the spot above the porch light and now there is nesting material everywhere. I tried hanging some reflective tape but they just used it as decoration. If you have any ideas that actually work let me know. Hope you have a calm few days ahead and that your plants are doing better than mine. Talk later.
Your CVS Pts. are expiring today - Reminder
It took me longer than it should have because the spare drawer was already full of random wires and old game cases.
Anyway, if you stop by later and want to set up the extra chair under the window, it should feel a lot less cluttered in there now.

I also found the extra set of batteries you asked about, they are on the middle shelf in the den.
And yes, the spare blanket is folded under the side table by the window. That should be everything.

Anyway, I saw the photos from your trip and they look incredible. The lighting in that one near the water is unreal. Did you use the old camera or the new one? I can't tell the difference half the time because your framing is always so good.
My neighbor is doing this wild garden project now. She's got tomatoes growing upside down in buckets and some kind of climbing beans that have taken over the fence. I keep meaning to ask her how she waters everything without making a mess. The whole thing looks like a science experiment but in a charming way.
Oh also, I finally finished that series everyone was talking about. The ending was not what I expected at all. Without spoiling anything, let's just say I need to rewatch the middle episodes again because apparently I missed a ton of clues. The second watch is going to hit different BWtTRvtGHE now that I know where it's heading.
Are we still on for that meetup next month? I found a place that has outdoor seating and a huge menu, so no one has to compromise. Let me know what works for your schedule.

Also, I went to that coffee shop you mentioned. The barista remembered your order, which was funny because I didn't expect that. The place has a weird but nice vibe. I ended up staying for an hour just reading and people-watching. Definitely going back when I have a day off.
Got any new book recommendations? I'm in between reads right now and nothing is grabbing me. I want something with a strong sense of place, like a setting that feels like a character. Fiction or non-fiction, I don't care. Just something that pulls me in fast.
The weather has been all over the place here. One day it's sunny, next day it's windy and cold. I keep a jacket in the car now just in case. Learned that lesson the hard way last month. Anyway, let me know about the books and we can compare notes later.

Yeah, I saw your note about the patio furniture - did the outdoor cushions survive the wind storm last night? I meant to check because we had a few empty planters blown around on our side. Anyway, if you still want to borrow the extension ladder this weekend, just let me know when works. I think I'm finally going to clean out the gutters on Sunday morning if the weather holds. Send me a text later.
Also, are you still doing the neighborhood potluck next month? I can bring that cold pasta salad everyone liked last time.

Update AARP Membership For 2026

Today is the last day for your CVS ExtraCare balance
They moved the big fern into the corner by the window, and now the whole place feels different.
It is funny how something so small can change the whole mood of a room.
We might try something similar once the weather cools down a bit.
|
There were way too many blurry shots of gas station signs, but a few of the sunset ones are actually pretty great.
Might frame one for the hallway if I can pick just one.
Either way, good to have them all in one place finally.
Kroger points expire soon, convert them today, thanks
I keep meaning to ask if you ended up trying that new recipe you mentioned. I think it had some kind of roasted vegetable and a lemony dressing. If it turned out well, send me the ratios because I have a bunch of zucchini that needs a purpose. Hope your week starts off easy and doesn't pile on too much right away. Talk soon.

Oh and my niece called me on Sunday and asked if I could help her practice for a school presentation. She's doing a report on the life cycle of frogs and she wanted to know if I'd listen to her run through it. She did a great job and even had a little diagram she drew herself. I told her the tadpole drawing was my favorite and she got really excited. Kids remember the smallest compliments for so long. It made my whole day. Anyway, that's the rest of the update. Wishing you a calm week with decent weather and a good night's sleep.
