Good morning, good day!

How are you this beautiful day?

Great start for me, beginning page three!

Here we are at the start of a Belabored Day Weekend.

Labor Day is Monday, but since sales start today, along with advertising campaigns and sales, I think it fair and accurate to describe the "weekend" as somewhat belabored.

I had a fantastic night's sleep.

When I finally got up, because my brain won't let me drift off any longer, I was still quite sleepy.

A cup of coffee, two toasted/buttered English muffins later, and the final half hour of "Morning Joe' (Joe-less, Mika-less and Willie-less) with Jonathan Lemire kept my attention as he dealt with headlines in the news.

I have no plans for today. Of course, there will be the post office visit, and a trip to Third Generation for the Friday lunch of baked catfish.

All y'all have a great day!

Hit It, Lorraine!

Guess what CD arrived in my mailbox this morning.

DR Jrand I am glad your rehearsal was better last night.

Fresh warm cookies delivered to the house, not bad

This evening, I met my cousin Butch, his fiancee Sharon, and my cousin (Butch's sister) Debra at the club for a nice evening out.

Debra and I had steak and fixins...Butch and Sharon had blackened salmon and fixins. We had excellent conversation, many people stopped by and said hello, and then we decided we should vacate our table and go home.

My meal was bought by Debra's son, Chad, one of the nicest relatives I know. She had told him it was a birthday dinner for me and that Butch and Sharon invited her. He demanded that my meal be paid for by him and that my dinner companions could simply be my present!

A memorable birthday, in advance, for moi!

That certainly made your birthday celebration special.

Vixmom I think it was a wise decision to purchase the name brand.

Jane · « **Reply #70 on:** September 01, 2023, 09:17:26 AM »

Do you have any idea what the price for the part would have been from the service department?

By way of an apology the building management hired a Mr. Softee truck to spend an hour at our building and everyone was welcome to have one cone or cup for free

Wow, what a nice guy.

Jane · « **Reply #72 on:** September 01, 2023, 09:18:39 AM »

I'm sure it was popular.

Jane · « **Reply #73 on:** September 01, 2023, 09:19:06 AM »

If it was an option, I would have gotten a plane vanilla cone.

The library copy of Preview Harvey is in!

Cool.

Anyway, the producer got everyone an Until There's a Cure bracelet (the silver plated version, but still it was really cool), and I'd been wearing it ever since.

Very nice, both the benefit and the bracelett.

George, your bracelet looks very nice on. I'm glad it was found, and now fixed.

This is pretty cool (to me, at least). On Facebook in the The Manhattan Transfer group, someone posted a link to a song called Farmer's Market by Cheryl Bentyne, the soprano of the group. That was recorded for an audio-DVD called Among Friends, which I have. I also actually saw her in a solo concert in Seattle around the time of my birthday that year (whatever year it was ) and was able to get her autograph!

Cool.
