It's Going to be a LONG night.

Still in the 70s today.

I spent part of the morning trying to organize all kinds of information regarding passwords and other important stuff.  Took forever.  Gary went to yoga and out to lunch with his pals.

Around 2 we headed into Rochester for an appointment I had with my dermatologist, who moved to a different practice many months ago.  So glad I found her!

Gary waited patiently until I was done.  Got a good report and we headed home.

By then the sun was starting to go down.

Little Wonder was happy to get back outside.

I had French toast for dinner and Gary was on his own.  Leftover Mac salad and who knows what.

The first polls have closed and I'm almost ready to get back out in the kitchen to see what's happening.

So far, the number of people who have voted amazes me.

I do believe there is a blue wave out there, but we might have a couple of surprises.  Congress was a big letdown and they did not even show up.  They should take quite a hit for not supporting their constituents.  As for the Senate....it's time for those elected to do the same, instead of being complicit regardless of how their voters felt.  I'm all for decency, humanity, caring about your neighbors, working together, integrity, values and more.  Anyone who thinks there has been no corruption must have been in on the deal.  As for the rest of the world....they know that the majority of Americans do not agree with the devastation that has been caused by this administration.  Let there be peace.  It's been a heavy load to carry every.single.day.

Night all.

 

Beautiful Dried Up Hostas

We have some record breaking temperatures coming up in the next few days.  At least it is not humid.  The sky was so red this morning.

That was before 7am.  There was even pink light in the bedroom.

Gary went to Brockport for coffee while Little Wonder and I caught up on the news.

Eventually I took a shower and drove down to Brockport for an appointment with my massage therapist.  I missed September and October.... so my body was hurtin'.

Afterward I drove to Greece to get a couple of turtlenecks and there weren't any in the store that I went to.  It was getting late, so I picked up two long sleeved white tee shirts instead.  On the way home the sun was starting to set.

The leaves are very dry now as we need some rain.

Gary finally got the rest of the pergola garden cleared out.  That area grows weeds very well.

For some reason LW does not want to go outside when I am not home.  Don't know how hard Gary works at it.  Anyway....we went for a very short stroll.

I grabbed a couple shots of the hostas and absolutely love the colors.

We had a veggie dinner tonight.  Romaine topped with Mac salad and a side of bean salad.

Night all.

I'm sitting here wondering what is going to happen tomorrow and am writing down my predictions.

Hope you all voted.

 

Progress

Unbelievable weather.  Little Wonder and I were off to our usual, but different, start to the day because of the time change.

Finn came up at 10 to help us move around some stuff.  We have had a freezer in our back hall for decades and even tho it is small, always took up too much room.  As soon as I got up I emptied it out so it would defrost any bits of ice.  It was filled with ice packs and homemade sauce...lots of it!  It was very light and they moved it into Gary's barn.  I kept a few bags in the refrigerator freezer and sent some home with Finn.

They also moved a couple of dog crates into the feed room and then started taking pallets out of the stall where I stored hay. 

By then it was getting close to the high 60s and LW was panting.

Fortunately there were only 8, but they were a mess as hay was stuck to the boards.

Now they are out by the road on our lawn and I hope someone picks them up to be used as firewood or whatever.

When that was done I went for trike ride #41.

While I was gone, Gary picked over a quart of raspberries and now they are bagged and in the freezer.

We had turkey burgers on a piece of toast for lunch....

and spent the afternoon watching the Bill's game....which they won.  

It's only 7:43 and I feel like it's 10.

Night all.

PS

The goings on in Michigan are very interesting.  I hope it all backfires.
