The Frog Pond

We went to The Frog Pond in St Pete today with Allisons, Heckarts, and Sasseens.  Delicious breakfast and a fun atmosphere...frogs everywhere!!  I'd wanted to go there for some time, so I'm glad we got to go.

After breakfast, we stopped at JoAnn's and then we went to WalMart.  We did our shopping, came home and took naps.  Dave then cleaned the shower floor for me...and the doors!  He's such a great husband!  I played cards tonight while he washed off the driveway.  I think we're ready for company now!

Cards tonight were fun.  We won by less than 200 points!  Good game!

Chilly day

I guess winter in Florida isn't over yet.  Another cold front is upon us and today was a little chilly.  We had our high for the day a little after midnight.  Tomorrow it's supposed to be 69 again and then back into the mid to upper 70's - yay!!

Dave and I worked on cleaning the house today.  We vacuumed, swiffered, and wet-mopped all the floors.  Then we rearranged the living room and got the house ready for company this weekend!  Should be fun!  I also worked on our taxes.  I need to print some stuff, but for some reason the computer isn't communicating with the wifi and the printer.  So I'll try to reinstall it tomorrow.

We took a couple of bike rides today - the last one I actually had to wear a sweatshirt!

Good day!

I had a good day today.  Dave took his dad to Sebring for the Galveston (Indiana) Reunion of family and friends.  I stayed here and enjoyed being alone!  When the car is gone, no one knows I'm here, so I can just hide!  I didn't even get dressed until about 11:00.  I read, played games on the computer, and put our tax papers together.  I still have some work to do on the tax papers, but I'm over half-way done.  I didn't even go up to the clubhouse for coffee this morning!  In fact, I haven't even been outside today.

I have had some intestinal issues today, so I elected not to go up to play cards...does that mean I'm a winner...or a loser?

Beautiful Day

It was another beautiful day here!  We bowled this morning (just so-so for me, but Dave had a 157 his first game!)  For lunch we went to the Clubhouse on Bryan Dairy - good food!!  I worked on cleaning house this afternoon.  We took our bike rides and then I went to bingo.  I got a bingo the first game, but so did 3 others.  So all I won was $3...not enough to pay for my cards tonight.

Sorry,, I'm tired tonight, so don't have a lot to say.

Lovely day

I think I rode somewhere between 3 and 4 miles on my bike today.  I lost track!  I rode for a while with Roger and then by myself and then Dave came home and I rode with him.  I was drenched when I got home!  It has been so humid!

We had lunch here and then I made a wrapped pickle dip that I found on Pinterest.  It was really, really good!  We were invited to go watch the sunset at Indian Shores with Sasseens, Heckerts, Allisons, and Kozaks.  The guys were playing golf at Chevelle (all but Dave), so we picked up the ladies and met the guys at Sasseens.  It was a fun night - and a beautiful view!

It wasn't the best sunset we've ever seen down here, but it was pretty neat!

Beautiful Day!

We had another gorgeous day here in Largo.  It's still 70 degrees at 9:00 PM!  We had abundant sunshine and it was about 85 degrees!  More like Florida weather!!  Thank you, Lord!

We went to church this morning and when we got home we went up to Sandy's for the Bocce Ball tournament.  I think we only had 30 or 31 participants, but the play started at noon and we got home about 5:30!  The top four players in order of placing were Alan, Pat Bargary, Larry, and Babe.  Everyone had a good time!  The games were fun, the hot dogs were great, and the weather cooperated!  Good job, everyone!

Tonight we've been just sitting here reading and playing on the computer.  But now the Daytona 500 has finally resumed, so we're watching it.  I don't think we'll make it to the end of the race, however.  When you sit outside all day, it makes you really tired.

Soggy Saturday

I'm afraid there seems to be a pattern developing here...daily rain!  It was so humid last night that we turned on the A/C and it's still running.  It's not that it's so hot, it's just so darn humid.  We sat outside tonight with Bob, Ann, Heckarts, Sasseens, and Ann's brother & his wife.  I was just soaked when we got home because of the humidity!

We received bad news early this morning from home.  A friend from church, and a fellow Cyclone, Charlie Montgomery, fell, hit his head and died this morning.  He'd been battling a fever and perhaps a kidney infection, but no one know what made him fall.  He will definitely be missed!  RIP, Charlie!  Our Cyclones won tonight - I think they had an extra coach looking over them tonight!

This morning after I took my shower and got ready for the day, I made a peach cobbler dump cake for tonight.  It sure smelled good - I was hoping it tasted good...and it did!  The park had a pasta night this evening.  I think there were about 80 people in attendance.  It was really good...spaghetti and a tortiglioni-type pasta.  Then there was plain red meat sauce, a sausage sauce, and meatballs.  Of course, there was also bread and salad and MANY desserts!  There was wine, too...I forgot that.  Good job!

Tomorrow we have a Bocce ball tournament after church.
