I’m back in the office again. Humph.
I sure did like leaving my house at 8:15 instead of 6:00 last week….
I got out of QoS class early to day, which was nice since the weather was beautiful. After spending an hour on the phone with Home Depot (yes the Saga continues, yes they screwed it up again), we decided to head into Annapolis for some lunch. It was 3 PM at this point.
We took Mr. Grey to Davis’ Pub in Eastport and TKD and I had crab cakes. Now, Davis’ is out of the way and worth it. Its a little neighborhood pub that pretty much only locals go to (we’re kind of local). They have good food that’s not too expensive and they sit on a street that has views of the old Eastport harbor. They also have outdoor seating, which rocks.
Mr. Grey had a good time. As, usual he tried to grab my beer and my food. Here’s a shot of the two of us at Davis’ pub.
I sent the picture to our friends Shawn and Andy, and they called asking us to stop by for beer. We rolled over to Shawn and Andy’s place and had a few beers while we watched Mr. Grey and their daughter Erin learn how to interact with each other. It was entertaining. Mr. Grey liked their dog, Maddie a great deal.
These spur of the moment get togethers are the best. No agenda, no plan, nothing but hanging out with good friends.
It’s been hot, really hot (96 degrees yesterday) and humid, over the past week. Last night we got some good steady rain. I put some mail out around 9:30 and it was 71 degrees. I opened the windows and turned off the AC. Fell asleep listening to the rain.
Mr. Grey woke up at 5:15, and it there was a cool breeze blowing in from the window above my head. It felt great. I didn’t actually check the temp until around 7, but it was 66 degrees at that point. Fabulous.
I drove to my QoS class, with the windows down and the sunroof open, listening to the Beach Boys. You know you need a vacation when you are listening to the Beach Boys.
Woke up at 6 when the little man decided it was time to get up. Laid in bed until 7 with him hitting me in the face. Couldn’t stand it anymore, so I got up and made him his morning bottle.
Put together a new bouncy toy that mom got him. He watched. Drank coffee, me not Mr. Grey. Put him in it.
He seemed to enjoy it.
Made waffles and bacon for TKD. I had some too. They were good.
Put together some potato salad for the get together with the boys in the afternoon.
Good Saturday Morning, I say.
I planted Tomatos on arguably the hottest day of the summer. It was probably about 6 weeks ago, my how time flies. They are now about 4 feet tall and the stakes I used to hold them up are struggling. I had one snap at a “y” in the plant. I tried to patch it up by splinting it and wrapping it with some cotton string. We’ll see. I hope the branch doesn’t die, because it has about 6 tomatos that are just getting going. I’d hate to lose them.
If I do, I may cut them open and see if I can harvest their seeds for next year. Or, they might become fried green tomatos….
My basil has been attacked by some kind of insect. The leaves are all chewed up. I think I might need to get some lime to put on them to keep the buggies away.
