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.
    Hugs, Joyce

    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
