A beautiful, sunny, dry day here in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. The weatherperson said this morning, that we should go outdoors and take a walk, play games, sit in the sun, do yard work, etc. as the sun is healthy for us and it will not be so prevalent the rest of the week. It is good for the vitamin D. That is true. It is one of the vital things we humans need. I believe animals do also. It was a cool weekend so today has felt pretty good with a high of 68. It is 4: 22 p.m.
The weekend went fast. Saturdya was busy and fun. Tina and I did quite a few things around the house, then got dressed to go to Loco Burro for her birthday dinner. It was fun. We picked Dottie up and headed towards the mall. She dropped us off at the door of the place and went and parked the car. I went in and placed our names on the waiting list…..20 minutes. I said that was great as Jerry and Tammy hadn’t left their house as yet. Tina found a great parking place very close to the entrance so that was a plus. Dottie and I went across the hall thing and wondered through William Sonoma’s store. (I am sure that is spelled wrong but spell check has a worse version.) By the time we came out of there the table was ready for us. I do believe everyone enjoyed their meals and the company was fantastic. we laughed and visited and watched all the sweet babies that were there. Most everyone was dressed in Orange and White, even the babies. So cute. Check Facebook for Tina’s birthday picture in her sombrero. Of course they , as in the whole restaurant loudly said “HAPPY BIRTHDAY TINA!” Did I mention she looks great with a red face? It was all fun, fun fun!
Sadly, the Vols lost their game against Georgia. Their last game is this coming Saturday and we are sure hoping that they win that one. All in all, it has been a good football year for them. Also baseball. Once the football is over with it will be basket ball, which is already going strong. Personally, I like hockey.
Sunday was busy but lazy. We had to go to Walmart so discussed going before church or after. We went before. then church, then Panera’s for lunch, chicken noodle soup and 1/2 grilled cheese sandwich. the soup was great as was the sandwich. Then home and relax, doing a few minor things and catching up on the recorded TV programs.
Today has been busy. I chauffeured Bill to the eye doctor,brought him home, went to bible study, came home, ate lunch, then the chairlift man was here to give the chair its annual overhaul and repairs. He took it all apart and put it back together again, replacing the two old batteries with new ones. They were all but dead. The chair works wonderfully now. So thankful. It didn’t work for a couple of days.

Have a great rest of your Monday. Make it a wonderful, productive, spontaneous, cheerful, and fun day.
