My company came today. I no longer feel like the jilted bride left at the alter. Yep Cindy and David came up this afternoon and we had pot roast and sweet potatoes cooked in beef broth and cider that Jay so loving prepared. With a salad from a bag and biscuits we pigged down. For dessert I had made a Sour Cream Apple Pie. That was pretty good also.
David took my pile of projects and made quick work of them. My new smoke alarms are up, the light at the entry door is back in one piece again and one of of my embarrassing problems has been corrected.
Some years ago after moving in here I painted several rooms in the house. I moved this hanging basket thing out of the pass through intending to hang it in the kitchen or the utility room right off the kitchen. I temporarily hung it on the curtain rod that was on the laundry room door until I could hang it up properly.
Well the temporary lasted some six or so years now. So each time I walked into the laundry room I would think I have to fix that but I didn’t. Well I bought a bracket the other day and David, bless his heart, installed it today.
Wednesday the hubby replaced the light over the kitchen sink and added two more florescent bulbs to the main kitchen fixture so now I can see better. So with my two guys helping I’m am a much happier lady tonight!
I must take time here to hail the conquering heroes!
Yes sir although one looks half asleep and the other one distracted these two men beat Cindy and me at pinochle this evening. So I raise my coffee mug with the Folgers and the chocolate creamer in it in recognition of who is the better team this time. But we will meet again.
As you can see my partner is all tore up over the loss and I am also crushed. ( Or is that I have a Crush,orange that is!)
Oh I finished sorting and filing the first ‘want to try’ recipe book this morning and will check the other one out soon. It seems this was a get it done time around here this week and I’ll tell you I’m happy.
As usual we enjoyed our time together with Cindy and David and parted with kisses
Oh well we lost, but as always we lost with grace and good looks! Love you both so much and it was great to come up and to be fed such remarkable food!
glad that your list is getting smaller with the help of family. I only hope my kids will help me in the future.
I would also love the recipe for that sour cream apple pie..it’s sounds delicious!
