Chores...Chores...and more Chores

So today(Monday) began at 0500...everyone was still sound asleep...brewed some coffee, decided I would not take the Mt. Everest walk, so I got on the treadmill  for 80 minutes.....extremely boring....builds character....FIL got up....then Bride.....Favorite Lady fixed some breakfast, and then time to start the Days Activities...still had some mowing and weed eating(edging) to do...plus more flower planting...Bride took the planting chores...I took on weed eating...FIL got the riding lawn mower....I tried to trade jobs with FIL but he wouldn't have any of that..... I only wish I'll have his energy when/if I'm 88....the truth be known I wish I had his energy now!
FIL at age 88...the Greatest Generation still showing why they are

Next was grocery shopping....Bride still had some planting to do,  I did the grocery run....plus I wanted to get the stuff to make Chili....Started The Chili about 3pm...ate at 6pm...FIL must of liked it, he had 3 helpings, daughter came over and joined in then took a "care package" of Chili with her...made some calls and then started looking at alternative routes for our trip home...l-35 is getting to be really boring and you sure can't see America that way....so we may go East To Jefferson City then south...hit some of Route 66..and Meander home that way..or go west to Flint Hills area then head south to parts unknown...a lot depends on what surprises Mother Nature may have up her sleeve...there is a good chance of snow here for later Tuesday....hopefully by Thursday we'll get another Spring day...

  1. You made FIL's day..I relayed your comment..lol...now he wants to go to the Mall and meet some ladies...using the treadmill I do a "virtual walk" imagine one my different walking routes back home and....I know..kinda stupid but it works...still haven't decided on route...the Jeff City rt. is nice....though I wouldn't mind heading south prior to Jeff. City and going to Eureka Springs and seeing the wildlife refuge....choices, choices...btw is the flooding impacting you folks...sure hope not!!! Horst
