A Better Time to Shop

    Much colder today and rainy. A quick run to the grocery store early (for me - 9:30 a.m.) this morning and it was blessedly quiet with no lineups. I think Sunday morning will be my regular shopping time from now on. I did pass one person not wearing a mask but didn't challenge them, just kept out of their way.

   Haven't ventured out since. Even Lucy the dog won't go out - too miserable!

Calling it a Day

I picked up my car yesterday afternoon and immediately ran a couple of errands that had been planned for the day it died. It is now working well as it got its annual maintenance too, but my bank balance is severely depleted! However, that should be it for the next year. Today has been a quiet day at home except for a stroll down to the post office to mail a letter; just a few chores as well as baking a loaf of bread and cooking a rather delicious dinner of Osso Buco. I have a movie to watch tonight and, before you know it, it will be bedtime. How time flies!

Pickleball

End of Season Party

    Since tennis is over for the year, our small "social bubble" of four had a last get-together to celebrate the good times we had this Spring, Summer and Fall at the tennis courts. This took place at Cathy's house (you can see her reflection in the mirror on the wall) and consisted of lots of good food and drink. Everyone brought a course and Cathy provided the wine. It was a very merry occasion despite the sadness of it being the last time we are likely to see each other until next April!

From left to right Susan, Kathy and me. Cathy supplied the goofy glasses too. Having seen this I immediately rang to book a haircut!
