Wednesday

Happy grandparent day to me and the mechanic! So cute!

More rain...looks like the lake is inching closer and closer to the house...but not coming inside!

 An awesome cloud photo taken this afternoon from the twin...

Cool yellow fungi that grew very quickly on our cedar tree...the mechanic says he has seen it for the last few years.

 I found this wasp nest in a wind-chime.

Luna Moth...

Dinner...leftover spaghetti...again...not even worthy of a bad photo!

But I did buy some peanuts for the twin to make boiled peanuts for Connor!

My view this morning...

I usually send Chris my morning view...so this morning I received his morning view! No comparison!

My rope plant is blooming!

 A close up of the beautiful tiny flower.

 Dinner...

Pork tenderloin, white acre peas with cherry tomatoes and a salad.

I missed the moon last night...but caught this view this morning...it didn't last long...

 ...the twin didn't want to be upped one so he sent me this photo...

I spent my first day of retirement washing windows...and yes Gary's beloved grass had a fungus and parts of it died...maybe I should have left the windows dirty!

This isn't Florida (ha-ha)...Cliff sent this whale photo to me...this is the whale that was named after his son...Whenever it is sited he receives a  photo of it.

Dinner...

Gary's-baked sweet potato, green beans and juicy chicken.

Me-baked purple potato, green beans and juicy chicken.

Sunday

Another rainy day...the twin's view this afternoon...

Yesterday I noticed the high school girls crew team were out rowing...even in the thick fog.

Saturday

My morning view...fog...

I baked banana bread for the twin...

My lunch...

Lentil soup with toast.

My view this afternoon... the pecan grove...and rain somewhere...not here!

Dinner...

Spaghetti, salad and garlic bread.

...the aftermath...

TGIF

My view this afternoon...cool morning...hot afternoon...only in Florida!

 

On my first day of retirement I hung out at the shop...

This is part of one of our Technician's lunch...beautiful arrangement.

The grand-kids and their parents are coming next weekend...so I couldn't pass up these cute Quail eggs from Wards...I could probably eat all of them in one sitting. I'm not sure what to do with them! They match my granite.

Dinner...

Steak and a salad.

After 2 and a half years of getting ready for the bosses to retire...today was my last day at this job!  I have many memories of my 8 years here and will miss everyone.

To the future...

 

Wednesday

They are almost home...

Chris' orchids gets prettier and prettier...

One more day left at work...the office is looking mighty bare...this is what retirement looks like...

Dinner...

Shrimp, zucchini,onions, tomatoes and broccoli over Soba noodles.
