Blog time: 1950

Weekend update. I forgot my Oct 4 blog. Oct 4 is the birthday of grandson Lucas. I just posted the birthday blog. Sorry Lucas!

Busy weekend for Bob and Nancy.

Saturday Nancy and I walked to Panera for our Saturday breakfast. Saturday was cold this morning so we both wore warm coats.

As soon as we got home we started running errands. First stop was Fruitbasket to buy some bulbs. Next we stopped at Lowe's and bought three bags of wood chips for our courtyard. At Trader Joe's bought some two buck chuck and a sourdough banquette.

We immediately started spreading the wood chips. We soon realized that we needed more chips. Back to Lowe's and bought six bags.

We spread the six bags and still needed more. Headed back and bought three bags.

We continued spreading chips. The courtyard looks good. We are happy with the results.

Took Ms P on a long walk. Showered and took a short nap.

We had dinner at the Namey's. Ed has been fighting some as health problems but looked good. Mary fixed an Italian dinner. It was great. Spent a pleasant time after dinner visiting.

Sunday:

Ms P had an upset stomach this morning so we started the day cleaning carpet.

We headed to the Y for a swim. I showered and headed to the pool. Guess what the pool was closed! The lifeguard over slept. We dressed and headed to Meijer's.

We had a light breakfast and then headed to Trinity Church for their 1115 service. Nancy and I both noted that the average age was over 55. No more sermons the minister gives a homily. Sounded like a sermon to me.

We wanted to turn our furnace on this morning but got no response. Called Bel-Aire and they sent a service man. We need a new circuit board. They will fix tomorrow.

Took Ms P on a long walk. Took a short nap and we all took a walk around the block. I continued on for another 1.5 miles.

Nancy fixed scrambled eggs with beans and rice for dinner.

Debbie face timed us tonight. We had a nice chat.

Now watching 60 Minutes. We will watch the debate tonight.
