Good afternoon ladies. It has rained here all day but it is in the 50's so no complaints. We got both cars washed this weekend so of course it was going to rain.
I start all my baking early tomorrow morning as we might end up going to see Star Wars tomorrow after Jack gets off work. I asked Jack to help me tonight round up everything I am going to need to do the two pies and the apple squares so I don't have to run around looking for everything. My pie plates are in a small cabinet about the sink and hard for me to get to so he is going to have to get them down for me.
I got a text from Kelly and we are having dinner at her house at 5:30 on Wednesday. I know Tom has to work that day for most of the day anyway. Kelly is fixing pot roast so she may be only working half day if she is working. Jack has it off.
Susan: I will look into senior exercise programs when I go to join. I am sure they have stuff for us including the Silver Sneakers. Oh my gosh that is awful about your hand. I know Jack's ortho doctor told him that cortisone shots had to be stretched out as they swiss cheesed the areas be it tendons or muscles or whatever. With your other issues I am sure it is very hard for you. I noticed my elbows and shoulders are getting more stiff and hurt to do much real stretching of them. Hopefully he can find a solution for the calcium problem for you.
Jean: Pie is my favorite dessert. I had some kind of tiny wedge of a chocolate pie with raspberries in it on the ship and it was divine. They use dark chocolate in everything and with the raspberries it was really good. I guess I like pies because my grandmother always had pie on hand for grandpa. She made a mean peach pie. Sure do miss them. Hope your last minute Christmas stuff is all coming together for you. I love great big deep pools to swim in. The hotel in Fort Lauderdale has this huge pool with a grotto and waterfalls and lazy river the whole nine yards. Too cold this year to get to use it though.
Everyone have a good afternoon. Jack should be home in about 5 minutes or so.
and my regular partner will be back. Guess the bank balancer "robbed Peter to pay Paul" to make it balance in the end. Picked up the gift shop money on my way home and got that deposit ready after lunch. I did some laundry and went to card club for supper. I did have some good cards tonight but didn't take high or low. 
I am grouping things that I need for each recipe; will be glad when the prep is done. Actually, I'll be glad when it's Saturday! 
I wonder what the deal is with the card the po keeps returning to you. Is there any kind of a message stamp on it? 
It is a beautiful day here In the neighborhood. We have all the fixins for a nice dinner for our anniversary dinner which is the 24th and we will have the left-overs for Christmas. I will once again rotisserie a breast in my rotisserie and have all the goodies that go with it. That upright rotisserie does such a good job of cooking.
Sounds like a good plan to me.
For a very long time the site remembered that for me! 
There is a lot of respiratory and stomach stuff going around here. I'm always washing my hands! I did find the gift card; it was buried in a pile of mail I hadn't looked at, and put in my calendar. Next year I will be more organized . . . maybe!
