It
always seems to happen that way. After having a couple of bad nights
of sleep Kathy had no problem sleeping like a rock. This morning
though she admitted she could have easily gone back to bed. I had no
problem falling asleep last night but by 2:00 kept waking to stupid
things running through my mind. Things that as a citizen I have no
control over but was busy solving world issues instead of sleeping.
Finally I took an Extra Strength Tylenol at 4:00 but it would
be after 6:00 by the time I fell back to sleep.
Not seeing the Sun today. |
We
were having breakfast by 8:30 and reviewing what we were doing today.
We headed to the Computers knowing we had little time to spend
there. A quick check of Blogs, E-Mails and Messages
along with The Weather Network
only lasted as long as we had our Coffees. The 36 F (2
C) temperature we woke up to would be the high for today with a
mixture of precipitation throughout the day.
With
our morning chores complete we were out the door shortly before
12:00. Since we didn’t want to come back to a pile of Dirty
Dishes we decided to eat lunch out. Using Coupons we
stopped at Burger King to have
Chicken Nuggets for lunch. We watched out the window as
we ate as the Drizzle changed to lite Flurries then
back.
Devonshire Retirement Home. |
We
arrived at the Devonshire Retirement Home with minutes to spare. By
dropping Kathy at the door while I went to park the Car she had
signed us in and had already met up with my aunt Anna before I got
inside. The Retirement Home had a new resident Kitten that served to
brighten the lives of many of the others in the Home. Research shows
that having a pet has many benefits towards one’s health so if One
Kitten brightens the day of a Hundred Residents it’s all good. We
again watched out the windows as we visited as the Drizzle changed
to Flurries then back. After enjoying a wonderful visit we
parted after a round of Hugs and Kisses.
We
were on our way to visit Sandy and Gerry in Amherstburg
but with my prompting Kathy called ahead only to find out that Gerry
was sick in bed so we’ll get together when he’s feeling better.
No need for Kathy to catch any bugs.
Clouds over the town of Essex. |
Since
we were nearby we drove by our former home base of Wildwood
Golf and RV Park that is now closed for the season. It was
after 4:00 at that point so we stopped at the
A-1 Chinese Restaurant in Essex.
We arrived just in time for the warming tables to be refilled with
the fresh foods. We know we ate more then we should but we watched
not to overdo it.
Jen will take her Christmas Tree down tomorrow. It brightens up the house. |
It
was past 5:30 when we drove over to our daughter-in-law Jen’s
house. As usual we had an enjoyable visit and a hot cup of Tea
to warm us up. After being off for nearly Two Weeks Connor and
Haigan are not looking forward to going back to school on Monday.
Kathy
enjoyed the day travelling around and visiting after spending so much
time in the Apartment
lately. It was past 9:00 when we got home this evening. We are not
sure what we’ll be doing tomorrow but we’ll let you know after it
happens. Thank
you for following along and feel free to leave a comment.
Be
Safe and Enjoy!
It’s
about time.

You
know you are getting old when
your
wild oats have turned to Prunes and All Bran.
I'm one of those that leaves the tree up for months. It just makes the house happier.
ReplyDeleteResidents in these senior homes do love to see pets. The best therapy for some. ;)
