So sad to learn that Harry Belafonte passed. May he RIP. This brings up a story. Hubby and I loved Thursday nights. We worked all week and had our own business on the side from Friday through Sunday. So going out on a Thursday was very special. It was an outdoors thing where we picnicked on the grass with a quilt underneath us. We brought all kinds of food and fruit along with soda and tea. During this time we walked along the dandy beach and had our shoes off. The smell of the salt air permeated everything around us. It was really special. This afterall was “Summer Music.” We had both lawn and tent tickets. On one particular night, we arrived very early. We were told to put our blanket down and to leave. So we did. Hubby did not tell me the venue for that night. We literally ran down to the beach and sat among the rocks. And then the music started. “Matilda”. The raspy voice of the singer was none other than Harry Belafonte..I was mesmerized. I had to see the rehearsal. So, quietly, we snuck back and sat at the back corner of the tent. No one noticed us at first. Guess, we were holding hands and swayed to the music. It was ever so magical. The only time we ever saw Harry live. The evening was very special. Hubby and I talked about that evening tonight. The waves from the ocean slapping the rocks below and in time with the music is forever in my memories. What a special evening.

I did go to Lowes. I ended up cancelling the order in it’s entirety. I have been trying to make a couple of changes only to be left on hold for 20 minutes to an hour. I was at the service desk today trying to change the size of the vanity only to be told that I had to return to that department. So I did. The person who waited on me said that could be done with customer service. So I returned. After much debate back and forth I cancelled. I also explained that the person who I hired never returned any of my phone calls or had the decency to say he changed his mind. The salesperson told me to return and to start from scratch. They have people that could do the job and they charge by what has to be done. This was good news to me and to hubby when I told him what happened today. This way we will have an honest measurement and the person doing the job will be with me when selecting the items. I will give Lowes another chance in a few days. Just too much going on.

I agree that hubby is low in sugar and that causes his shakes. It also tells me that he isn’t eating the meals. Today ge was ub bed and half asleep. He said he ate his dinner when I asked. His roommate said otherwise. I stopped at Costco for gas (it was $3.23/gal) and while there parked and went directly to the food court. Purchased three hotdogs and three sodas. Then drove to the rehab which was just about 3 or 4 miles from Costco. The dogs were still hot when I reached the room. I also had fruit for hubby. Two apples (Granny Smith and Honey Crisp) and also red grapes. There is enough food on his table to feed a small army. So glad I was able to do this. Tomorrow I will either do something with veal or with hamburgers. The airfryer is all set to go. However, the counter still needs to be cleaned. Will do so in the morning.

I saw storm clouds in the distance this morning while out and about with appointments. But, the clouds disappeared before I returned home. The weather people are saying be careful what we wish for. Looks like our turn may occur Thursday and could be extremely severe.
Hope you have a great evening. Enjoy the animals. It makes me homesick for our backyard in Ct.. Someday we will return. Just not now.
