A rainy day

TERRY
My phone rang at 8:30 last night and there was no name but it looked like a hospital number.  I answered and it was TERRY.  Terry had not called me for several days and it was like a breathe of fresh air.  She sounded much better.  She said the doctor came in so we needed to hang up but then she called back a little later.  Our conversation was short as she said she was tired but as I headed up the stairs an hour later to bed my step was a little lighter and a little faster.  I certainly could tell she was not the Terry of old YET but it was a step in the right direction and it made me one happy guy.  Of course I am hoping for more good news today but as has been the mode of operation it will again be a wait and see kind of thing.

I made sure they were not busy when I took the picture😊.  I do not know BUT I suspect Costco has taken the "6 foot distance" VERY seriously!  You may notice the sign has plexiglass in front so if one does not pay attention and tries to use it you would be in trouble!



I woke up this morning to the sound of rain on the deck so I was super happy with what I gotten done yesterday.  I am not expecting much with this cool weather but still it was really nice to get some things in before the rain.  The phone shows rain much of the day and perhaps through the weekend.  As I look at the screen on my phone it does show 82 on Wednesday and then back into the 70s.

For me it was kind of a busy yesterday.  I spent about 2 hours at Costco as the tires were put on the pick up.  I found, for me, it is impossible to spend 2 hours in Costco without spending money!  The store is among an industrial area so there is NO place to roam other than in the store.  

Zach came by with the car at about 3:30 so we now have the new car here.  It was very funny.  Zach has gotten a few driving tickets in his life.  AND he was pulled over late at night in Wisconsin.  He certainly knows how to act.  He saw the highway patrol car and even before it moved he pulled over to the side of the road.  The patrol pulled up behind him with his lights flashing.  As the officer approached him he had his license in hand and gave it to him.  I am guessing Zach knows the "talk" as he said the officer laughed and gave him a warning!  That is our Zach!

After he dropped the car off and left in Terry's car I headed to Gerten's garden center.  It was about 4:30.  I should have taken a picture as there had to be 200+ cars there.  It is a huge indoor/outdoor garden center but still the number of people was amazing.  When I got home I got the plants in sore thumb and all.  I had planted some seeds earlier in the day.  There is still more to plant but it is a good start.

I will retire from writing as this darn thumb is ALL red from usage.  I am just finishing my first POD of coffee.
