Vacuuming at 11pm & a free senior soft drink
It was up to 84* in Seattle today. The big thermometer on my porch went to about 82* by this afternoon. So tonight I waited until just before 11pm to vacuum. It still was about 75* here in the house but I'm sure that was cooler than it was earlier.
I didn't start my day until almost 1pm. I woke up about 5am this morning and could not go back to sleep. This after watching David Letterman until after 12:30am. So about 10am I laid down again and slept until after 12 noon. Oh, how glad I am I'm not working !!!
This afternoon I went to K-Mart and bought a bag of their K-Gro weed & feed. The dandelions are thriving and I have to get something on the lawn before it's solid weeds. The directions said to water the lawn thoroughly so I brought out the hose and sprinkler, set it on the front lawn. I let it run several hours so tomorrow afternoon it should be ok to spread the Weed & Feed.
Bob is away so I didn't have to cook dinner today so I pulled thru Taco Bell and got a couple crunchy tacos and a "Free" senior diet soda. You seniors out there...did you know Taco Bell does that? You have to buy something but even a couple 99 cent tacos works to get that free senior drink. For dessert I had a bowl of cottage cheese with diced peaches~yummy!
Before I came home I stopped and topped off the gas tank. $3.79.9 a gallon for regular unleaded. Where will it stop?
I watched an interesting documentary on PBS about Walt Whitman tonight. It was good even if he was a little eccentric. I do have an old copy of his "Leaves of Grass."
Saturday is full for me. I'm going to lunch with a group of gals from the little hospital I worked at back in the 1980's. Then later in the afternoon, I plan on going to the Memorial Service for the sister of our journal friend Joni.
I realized today that my journal celebrated it's 3rd birthday/anniversary on May 6th. I can't believe it was three years ago that I began. Thank you all who have hung in there with me since the beginning.
I hope you all have a good weekend....until next time, Linda

I wish you could make a car run on tinned beans! It would be a lot cheaper! We paid £115.9 a litre two days ago for petrol, which works out to £4.64 a gallon or $9.27 a gallon roughly! It's criminal!

Yummmm, taco's. I can't remember when I had one but it sure sounds good. My little town has a Mickey D's, a Hardee's and a Sonic for fast food. No versatility...all burger joints. I'd love a Taco Bell or a KFC would be nice. Oh well. Enjoy your weekend.

It's in the low 50's and wet here now Linda. I think that's my sunshine you have. Send it back PLEASE, I'm freezing! I hope you have a good time with your friends today. I hope Joni gets through today all right, it's tough losing a sister. Jeannette xx
