We had a nice evening last night , our favorite upscale restaurant had customer appreciation night free drinks and appetizers for a couple of hours along with there normal live music , definitely took advantage of the free drinks part. Will return there tonight so our favorite singer can sing happy birthday to me. Tonight dinner will cost a bit more than last night but I will get a free dessert at least. 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!    I hope you have a wonderful day and enjoy your special dinner tonight🤩

TSOTD is from the New York Mets World Series winner in 2022.

 

 

You misspelled Yankees 😉😅

 

TSOD: Moody Blues Tour of the Kingdom. I think that was their 1992 concert tour. It's showing a bit of wear and tear but still fits after 30 (gasp!) years.

 

Why I'm wearing a t-shirt while it's currently 59 degree & raining is beyond me. I'm just glad that my little neck of the woods has so far escaped the "heat dome" that has enveloped most of he country.

@Ocean Boy Mike and I are going to miss you on the Allure July 9th. We will be hanging out in Champagne Bar in case you show up. 🍸 It was a last minute booking since I thought I would have to be out of state for family stuff.

I"m feeling a bit jealous now.😐

Re the Yankees:

Even though I am a Mets fan the first baseball game that I saw in person was at Yankee Stadium in 1962 and I rooted for the team when my friend Frank Tepedino was on the team.

I can ask the same question about why am I wearing a tee shirt when it is 64 degrees and raining .I am wearing it because a neighbor who is a huge Mets fan was supposed to come to my house to get something notarized and wearing the shirt might generate an interesting baseball conversation.

The weather in my small town is usually 10 degrees cooler than NYC .

As far as misspelling Yankees,that was a good one.Re Moody Blues:

I never saw them live but my friend who lived in Cortlandt Manor worked at the Paramount in Hudson Valley after he retired and saw many shows there .

Deb, how are you and Andy doing? Hope he is not in too much pain.

 

Andrew, hope Owen is doing well and not in pain.

 

Bonnie, hope you are healing well.

 

Aussielozzie, sending you healing wishes.

Appointment with the orthopedic surgeon this afternoon.  He has more pain from the fractured rib than his wrist.  I hope Owen, Bonnie and Aussie are doing okay.

Thanks for everyones suggestions on TV shows/series. We really liked Ozark, Bosch, Bosch Legacy and Lincoln Lawyer but now we need some new ideas. Please help, we have nothing to watch tonight!

Queen of the South on Netflix.  I also 2nd the ones others have mentioned - Inventing Anna, Peaky Blinders, Marvelous Mrs Maisel.  I’ll also add The Crown if you haven’t already watched it.

So today, we had all the grandkids at Apple Castle.

They have different topics for kids to learn about during the summer. Today’s topic was bees 🐝, and they all listened intently.  

 

All aboard the farm wagon.  By the way, that is a 1950 JD tractor.

Past a few hives.

With a stop to see farmer Steve, who showed off his bee outfit, and explained more about how the bees pollinate their orchards.

Once they got back from the wagon ride, all the kids got to decorate some pots, and they planted some sunflower seeds.

Inside the castle, they had a display case with the bees at work.  I learned that inside the hive, there are only a couple male bees, and the female worker bees would feed them and call on them for, ahem, good times.  The males don’t have anything else to do.  ( It was sounding like a pretty good life to me).  Other than when they get kicked out of the hive at the end of the season.

On the way back, we saw one of those new “green” vehicles at the gas station.

When I was discharged in November, I got home, changed into a nightgown and realized I had a needle taped to my arm. 
Wasn’t thinking, and pulled it out. 
Blood everywhere! Like I  struck oil!

So yeah, discharge should definitely include checking the patient’s body for leftover equipment!


Just a clarification:  you had a flexible plastic catheter in your arm, not a needle.

I just said needle because I didn’t know the proper name. It was for the 3am vampires. I think they thought I’d sleep through the blood drawing. 
Hope the photo doesn’t ruin anyone’s day!
