Roses are a Bloomin'

Looking out the window and enjoying the deep red/magenta roses opening up next door. Mary left last week....I did see someone else eyeing them up earlier this week. Woke up early this morning. Was tempted to have breakfast before the pool, but just had a cup of coffee. Also had a cup after pool time, hoping to run into the Canadians. Not to be found. Had some toast and pb quick. Caught up on the blog. Loaded up all the recyclables into the bike. Sorted it out at the bins. Took a small bike ride around to see what was happening. Not much. Had lunch at the patio grill today. Had a rueben. The corned beef was good back in March, so must be cleaning out the freezer. Bea is done cooking toward the end of next week. Joined a couple women. One looked familiar. Met her last year. She works on the activity committee-I think she knows everything that's going on in the park. Chatting about park models and now is the time to buy! Kathy was looking for her niece and found a nice one listed for over $100k and got it for around $80k. Just make an offer they encouraged me. I did pick up a new sheet with the latest listings. Most were the same, a couple new ones and I guess a few have sold. Took a look at a couple online again. Oh well, time is running out and have plenty of plans for next week. Won't be able to fit any time in for real estate. Watched Daze again. Caught right up after missing it a few days this week. time to sew. Cathedral window again. Interpreting the directions without anyone walking me through or demonstrating. Doing some ripping here and there. Sent a note off to Steve & Neil. Will be stopping by Stillwater next weekend on the way home. Out for supper-Mexican again. Hmmm goooooood. Stopped at Albertson's grocery this time. Haven't been to that store yet this year. Boy, prices sure seem to be high! Guess I don't always pay attention at home-so will be interesting when I do grocery shop at home again. Thursday night shows were reruns, so talked with Jim & Tootie for over an hour. Had lots to catch up on I guess!

Will be cool the next few days. Only high 50s maybe 60s and rain on Sat. Sun high barely 70. Then it warms up again into the low 80s for Renee's visit.

Chess or checkers on the lawn at the Biltmore
