Happy 3rd birthday Jude, August 18


There you have him, one of the cutest guys around.  Jude is one of the most outgoing little guys I have ever seen.  He wants to greet everyone he sees.
The count down to the "window ends" is going.  I think Monday will be the day when I can put the primer and paint away for this summer.  Yesterday I finished the north bedroom and got the window trim and the 4 sashes prepared and primed from the guest bedroom.  I should be able to finish painting them Monday and then what to do???  I am so happy with the way the windows now work and look.  For the price of the paint and the primer the work should have been self applied but now that the work is almost done I am so so happy with the product.  I will also rest easier this winter knowing the windows are not bare wood. 
Terry is recovering ever so slowly at this point.  Mostly resting and waiting for things to start working which has happened in a small way.  As she recovers I am cooking for myself which has consisted of mostly sandwiches.  Not that I can't cook but I just have not wanted to take the time and also the last couple of days I did not want to smell the house up with food smell as Terry just is not hungry.  This morning I did fry up bacon and ate an entire tomato with BLTs which tasted so so good.  One slice of tomato covered the entire slice of bread.  The tomatoes have been riping at a slow but good pace.  I do not know what we will do when they really start as there must be 50-100 green ones on the vines. 
Got a note from a friend in FL wanting our address and phone #.  Judy's husband John started to get dementia a few years ago.  Last winter he would go for daily walks with his white shirt and red cap and sometimes he would even know our names.  Well Judy said he went into a home in July and is adjusting fairly well.  I am sure it got to be too too much for Judy.  We need to daily be thankful for good physical and mental health. 
Another grand weather day in St. Paul with a slight breeze, sunshine and temps in the mid 50s this morning. 
I am not out of FP coffee this morning but need to go downstairs for a refill so time to close.
