Random things...

Yesterday I noticed a old car pull into my driveway, and two seniors got out of the car, and started wandering around the yard. I was in my room, and I opened the window, asking if I could help them. Turns out the lady is the original owner/builders daughter and she noticed the for sale sign. She said her brother from away was interested in the house. I told her the listing price and to contact the real estate agent. I found out that the house was started in 1961, completed in 64, when the family moved in. ( So my house is really 50 years old, just like my parents thought!) I thin they wanted to come in ofr a look, but I was not comfortable with that idea.

I noticed that I'm taking more pride in my home now that it's for sale! I've been spending time ( when it's not raining) outside getting everything looking good. Why couldn't I haven't take this much pride before? It always looks ok, and sometimes the weeds get the best of me, but now I'm keeping on top of it.

I went to see "Bridesmaids" last night with my 2 oldest friends. We laughed our faces off. Go see it if you can! Tuesdays are cheap night, 5.99, so we've decided that we'll do movies once a month.

I needed to make an emergency run to CT today, as the dog broke his outdoor leash today. I use clothes line, and I paid 15.99 for 150 feet. I also bought clothes pins and the local paper. I used 9.00 in CT money and paid 14.11 out of pocket. It took me 10 minutes or less to make his new lead.

Now, I'm off to clean the BBQ, and get some asparagus and potatoes ready for supper.

Today I'm going to bake a rhubarb cake and cookies...
