Another nice fall day. We stayed up late for the elections and it was very exciting. We had a bottle of champagne that our sil had given us a year or so ago and told us to open it for a special occasion. We had never opened it..and last night (or rather early this am) it seemed the perfect occasion, a new president, so we did and it was very good. Only had a few sips and now we have the rest of the bottle to drink! LOL Since we don't drink often/much, it will take a while...
Nothing has changed with me except my throat is slightly sore..I think just from all the coughing. It's been a week since I saw the doctor but think I'll wait until tomorrow to call since I made that mistake at first with the Flonase. Can't tell it has helped at all. Dh was going to a VA thing today but I was coughing so hard early this morning, he decided to stay home with me. He would have been kinda far away and might not have heard his call if I'd called. I went with him last year (he was in the program that time), and it was crowded and noisy. They do serve good Filipino food though. I'm sure I would have been ok, but thankful for his thinking of me.
Last night he brought home Chinese food...it was ok, I just don't have much taste for anything right now. Now I need to buy groceries so we can have some new dishes. We've been getting a long but not eating very healthy.
He's fixing a leak under our kitchen sink...the pipe just wore out I guess..has a crack in it so he left to get a new part. He's always busy with something. When he's done I'm going to clean out under there. Seems like it's always a mess.
Just got an invite for a Dec performance of the Nutcracker and my gs will be in it. I didn't know he was taking ballet but knew he had expressed some interest. My dd just told me he's been taking it for over a year now. Of course now we have to go to the coast to visit them but in some ways it is actually easier than going to Portland r/t the traffic. Will discuss with dh before buying tickets though.
We have three gc's birthdays this month. One is over...I sent her a GC, then the gs in the ballet will be ten in a few days...I haven't yet gotten him anything and don't know what their plans are. Then the next one is grown up so he'll get a check or GC in the mail. We have 12 gc who have birthdays in 8 months of the year, keeps me busy.
That doesn't count in-laws who I normally don't buy gifts for and us nor extended family. And Christmas is coming! So far I have only got 2 ornaments. Hopefully I can start doing more soon.
Well, will stop rambling...you have a good day.
