Happy Birthday

Uncle John!
70 Today : )

Gk and Uncle John went to town this morning to get dog treats and insure the truck. GK says he wants a new seat cover for it to, so they may swing into schucks.
John brought the neighbor a sausage mcmuffin for breakfast today and that was a huge hit! So he had cereal and sausage.
Good way to start the day.
Gk has most of his tax stuff in order, he has been going through it for a few days now and I think is just about done.
The kitchen table is covered and gawd only knows his system but I think he's got a handle on it.

Minnesota called last night and was happy to hear the good report from GK's doctor. They said they have snow and it's pretty cold there. I told Hutsie I hadn't cleaned the windows yet, so maybe that will inspire her to come visit again soon. She said she only uses Prell shampoo and water and it cleans better than anything else.
The problem is that the windows on the end of the house are about 15 feet up and on a hill. I think we will need to get scafolding to do it and take off the 30 year old storm windows. Maybe I'll invite Julie down for some "special sister time".
She likes to clean stuff. I could hold the hose.

Kelly called to say she made it home ok. They were having snow too and the house was pretty chilly. The people who are renting their cabin had been doing laundry there while she was gone. Their washer went t.u so they just used Kelly's. I told her I thought that was kinda creepy and to get back at them offer to do another load for them and throw the kids dirty socks and underpants in the same load. Stuff like that really grosses out non-parents. She wasn't sure if she was going to work today, but the kids would be in school for sure.

I am just kind of out of it today. With Gk gone to town and everybody gone things are very quiet. I feel like I should be next door, but theres nobody there. I have the laundry done, dishes done, dogs tended to and....that's it. Nothing else to do at the big house. I guess that means I could do our laundry, dishes, dusting and vacuming but I don't really want to. Our STINK dogs need a bath but yuck, I don't want to do that. Maybe I should start with a shower and see how things shake out from there. I got on the scale this morning and in the three weeks I have been off weight watchers I only gained four pounds.
I started smoking again though so that could be part of the reason I didn't gain twenty. Hutsie told me last night her clothes shrank a little while they were here, I told her it was just the humidity.

I guess I'll go call Julie and see what she is doing. That should kill half an hour or so. I wonder if I should shower first.
Maybe not, she can only hear me on the phone, not see or smell me.

Ciao 4 now
