Good morning, my friends. Despite the rain early on, we've hit the jackpot in the Escondido weather department. We're expecting a high of 81 degrees today, and the warm weather will continue through next week.
We had a lunch date with our friends yesterday. We tried out a new-to-us BBQ restaurant, and the food was delicious. When we left the kitties, they were acting as bookends.

Good morning, my friends. It's another beautiful day here in Escondido. We're meeting up with some friends for lunch in a couple of hours. Aside from that, there's not much going on today. As for yesterday's wanderings, I took the first stitches on the smaller embroidered section for Block 11 of Raggedy & Friends.

Good morning, my friends. We had an easy-going day yesterday. I did three loads of wash...wash loads are small in our washer/dryer combo, and so three loads are required to do the work of two. Aside from that, we got out for a walk around the park, and then sat and relaxed for most of the day.
First thing, I spent a little extra time on my slow-stitching. I'd missed a couple of days, and so I wanted to stitch a little longer. That allowed me to finish the second embroidered section for Block 10 of the ...

read moreGood morning, my friends. I'm happy to say we've banished One Drive from the laptop for the second time. Strangely, there was, for a while, a folder marked "One Drive." There was nothing in it, and anything related to One Drive had been disabled. Still, if we deleted the folder, it would reappear within just a few seconds. Kinda made us wonder why Microsoft wants in tentacles in everything we do. Weird. But you’ll note that was all in the past tense. Mike spent some time watching a video that told him how to delete it completely ...

read moreGood morning, my friends. We had such a fun day yesterday. As usual, I took way too many pictures and so I have a lot to tell you. We haven't got a minute to lose, so fill up that cup with whatever your drinking, and let's get started.
Along our way, we stopped at our favorite farm stand and scored some Hass avocados. On the right are limes. They're yellow because they've been allowed to ripen on the tree.

Good morning, my friends. It was a good day for sewing yesterday. Mike was out bike-riding, and I had the place to myself. I could spread out at will. Mike has no problem with me taking over virtually every surface in the RV, but I'm more comfortable when I can tell myself I'm not inconveniencing anyone. So...wanna see what I did?
I started here with these sections of the stars from my previous day of sewing. The first step was to lay them out as they would be sewn together.

Good morning, my friends. Now that our slide is working properly, it feels as if we've really entered vacation mode. Of course, when you're retired, you never really get a vacation. Retirement is a full time job. Sometimes, though, it's more worry free than other times. With the slide giving us problems starting on the second day, we were finally able to relax yesterday and enjoy some peace of mind along with our peaceful surroundings.
It was a lovely morning. We wore light jackets, but ended up tying them around our waists for the second half of ...

Good morning, my friends. It was another day of not-much-accomplished, but we had a really nice evening with our friends. They'd invited us for a "Friendsgiving" turkey on Thursday (tomorrow). But then my friend, Deb, was using a dry brine on the turkey, and it looked as if it needed to be eaten sooner. And, no problem. We don't have much of anything going on, so we're flexible. And dinner was wonderful. We haven't seen our friends since March of 2024, and so it was good to catch up. My contribution was this Thanksgiving Slaw. (I ...
