2022 Project 365 – Week Thirty-seven

Whoa Nelly – there are a lot of photos this week! Let’s dive right in, shall we?
Sunday, September 11^th            
It was my best cousin-friend’s birthday! I’m not at all sure what was going on with my hair here, but Kim Jane is cute with her tiara, so we’re just going to go with it.
 

I went to my dad’s for lunch and ate homemade chili (delicious!) and helped with the new puzzle.
 

Monday, September 12^th  
Around the yard… Dr. M got the memo about taking some outside photos this week.
 

I saw a rainbow as I was leaving work.

Went to eat with the fam – I guess you can tell where. As you can see, I’m just Just Plain Dumb.

Dr. M has had a LOT of feelings this week. His Aunt Judy has been living in the house where he spent the first 10 years of his life. He has a lot of memories from there – both good and bad. Now she’s heading for assisted living and the house will be sold. He spent part of the day putting a new battery in her car – they’ll keep it for her just in case she’s able to drive it again.
 

His dad’s muscadine and scuppernong vines are FULL of grapes this year. So are my dad’s. Anyone need any grapes?
 

Wednesday, September 14^th                

I went by my dad’s at lunch to work the puzzle (and visit of course) and they told me about the surprise on their chimney. We think it’s a sunflower – ha!
 

Thursday, September 15^th          
I had a meeting at church and had this situation. I had been doing really well, but, see, the spaces in our lot are kind of weird. Yeah, that’s what happened.
 

Friday, September 16^th          
Day off from work breakfast (which, I confess, I ate for three days in a row): Spinach pizza, black beans, fried egg, sour cream and taco sauce. It was GOOD.
 

Spent the morning cleaning out my car. It was SO DISGUSTING that even I started noticing (mainly from leaves and gum wrappers which I THOUGHT I was throwing in the trash. And dust). Ugh. But it’s all shiny inside now. And bonus – I found the piece of Ruth Bader Ginsberg’s robe that we were missing in this puzzle. The big question is: how did it get under the driver’s seat?
 

Saturday, September 17^th       
It was my dad’s birthday! In his usual dad way he took ME out to eat to celebrate. We went to Panera because he had seen a commercial with a chicken sandwich that he wanted to try. Although Sue and I loved our lunches, he decided the chicken sandwich was middlin. After lunch Sue went to a shower and Dad & I went back to his house to eat pudding cake and work the puzzle.
 

Later that day Dr. M took some photos of our asters and VERY BUSY sedum – it was getting all the love!
 

I left to have dinner with friends (we watched Kim Jane’s daughter’s wedding video & looked at pictures – so fun), but Dr. M had a visitor so he wasn’t alone.
 

I took a photo of a photo on Kim’s camera roll – this is from the day before the wedding when I was helping with set-up. Ha!
 

Tomorrow we’re doing more birthday celebrating with my dad, and it looks to be a busy week at work. I’m already pre-tired – especially because I woke up at 7:30 this morning after going to bed after midnight. Rude. How are you feeling heading into the week? I know some of you are retired, but you are still allowed to have Monday thoughts if you want to.
