Been a while

 I haven't made a post in a while, because not much going on. I had my left eye lasered last week, because of buildup on my cataract lens. it's a 30 second procedure! Took longer for the dilation than it did for the procedure! Then it was eye drops 4 times a day for 5 days, and a check up on Monday. I'm good to go!

Monday was Eddie's 21st birthday, and Saturday was Ralph's 76th birthday. Heather threw Eddie a surprise party, and had a cake for Ralph, too. It was a fun day.


 Work in progress! Another for the stash, this one is more girl oriented, since I left out the blue. I'm still using up yarn that I don't know why I bought. I like to have a stock pile of baby afghans around. Steph takes one when one of her employee's is pregnant, and Heather takes one occasionally if she's making a raffle basket. And of course some will be for Samantha and Michael's baby to be!

I will be so glad when the election is over! I'm sick of the ads- good thing I DVR everything and can fast forward thru them. And I'm sick of that miserable old man and his loon of a sidekick. I really can't figure out why anyone is loyal to a felon, but seems that a lot of loons are. I've ghosted two long time former friends because they are so outspoken about him, and I feel better off without their toxicity. We aren't going back! Ever!

Foggy and humid

 It's a strange day. It's early for Indian Summer, but that's what it feels like.

The debate between the orange creep and Kamala Harris went wonderfully! She wiped the floor with the bastard! From the first moments, when she strode up to him as he tried to back away, and put out her hand so he had to shake it. She owned the debate from the first word. And the mods actually fact checked the lying ex prez, which did not make him happy. 


These two started 6th and 4th grades!


 

And this guy started clinical! I can't believe he'll be 21 next week! 


 Finished! It's baby afghan sized.

Speaking of babies, the family is getting one! Our nephew Michael and his wife Samantha are expecting! She's due March 2, and I hope she holds on til March 3, which is Julianna's and my late mom's birthdays. 

Plan for today- when Ralph gets home from breakfast with the Veterans, we'll make a library run and then stop at Walgreen's for a Rx.

September

 The month is starting well, temps have been in the 70's, with 50's at night. Great for sleeping!


 Our new fountain! I love it, and hope the birds like it.



 A recent read, highly recommend! Very good.

Julianna is a senior! How did this happen? Last week she was a 5 pound premie, and now she's driving herself to her senior year!


 


Granddog Mocha looking pitiful. She managed to tear her nail half off, and ended up at doggie urgent care. She has antibiotics and pain meds, poor pup!
