Blog time 1100 on Sunday.  Once again I am a day late.

Good grief! It is the first of August.  The summer is just going too fast.


This morning we walked to Panera.  Sat outside and drank our coffee.  I also had a bowl of oatmeal and bagel.  Panera was empty.  

At home Nancy started the laundry and I headed out on an eleven mile bike ride.  Got home about noon.  

Shaved my head and face before showering.  It is the first of the month so I put a new blade in the razor.  Also started using a new toothbrush.  I am a creature of routine.

Nancy noted black smudges on some whites she just took out of the washer.  She said it looked like oil.  She rewashed the load and this time it came out clean.

I got our the manual for the washer and noted a section on cleaning the washer tub.  Opps! we have never cleaned the tub.

Lunch and then we grabbed the washer manual and headed to Home Depot.  We talked to a salesman and he gave us the name of a repairman.  

We looked at new washer and dryers.  They are not cheap.  Hope the repair man can give us a quick/cheap fix.  At home we ran the tub cleaner cycle recommended in the manual.  We still want a visit by a repair man.

We had planned on eating out this evening but my stomach is acting up so we will eat at home.  I took a short nap.

For dinner tonight we had pea soup with English muffin.  My stomach approved of the meal.

I finally found time to make a quick read of the news.  Peggy Noonan’s Op-ed in today’s WSJ should be mandatory reading for all conservatives.  Bottom line:  Donald Trump ruined the GOP and nobody fought back.  The weakness of the leadership probably means to demise of the GOP.

This evening we watched a movie on Prime.  It was really a guy movie about an attorney who defends his no account Brother-in-law on a murder charge.  A great escape guy movie but Nancy did not like.  We finished the evening with an episode of Absentia.

Made my 2200 check of the garage and front yard.  It was very humid and rain expected later.

We had to close our slider because the neighbors were having a loud party.  They had rigged a bedsheet type movie screen in their back yard and were watching a movie.  It must have been good because they were noisy.  Opened the slider at 0200 and it was pouring rain.

Debbie FaceTimed us this evening.  We gave a positive report.  Missy and AJ were attending a Drive In type movie at the yacht club this evening.
