We had rain  this morning and also hail which frightened my Vita no end.    It did not last long and the rest of the day has been lovely.

I went to Mass at 4:30PM and was able to tell Father Phil that I was so grateful to be able to have communion on my birthday on Thursday.    Nice to give him something as he works so hard for us..    This pandemic is hard.

Well, it to will pass.

A good day.    The weather people keep telling us we are going to get rain, but it does not come.    Tonight is another chance and for the whole weekend.     Poor little Vita is terrified by thunder and hides under the bed.     I remember that our Chelsea used to go into the bedroom and put her head under the bed.    Of course, her little butt was sticking out but she did not know that was a problem.

I listened to a conference on the COVID19 virus put on by my Wells Fargo Investment people.    It was interesting but it mostly reaffirmed what I knew already.

Did a bit of cleaning and took miss Vita out for a couple of walks.    So it was a good day.

I had ordered meds from Humana, coffee from Kuerig and they both arrived today.      Such service.   I also got my stimulus check.    I am going to donate that for someplace that will help families feed their kids.    Am I ever blessed, I don't need it.

Hope your day was as good.    I am going to Mass tomorrow night at 4:30PM   Hope there are not too many people there but what a shame if there are not a lot of people there:)

It was a very nice birthday.     I was able to go to Mass at church this noon and actually receive Holy Communion which I have been missing DO much.   This mass  was set aside for the parishioners that are over 60 years old.     There were 25 or more people there which I thought was pretty good.    I am planning on going again on Saturday evening.

After Mass I stopped at Taco Bell and bought a taco.    I was just hungry for a California style taco and it really tasted good to me.     I got lots of birthday emails, cards and some calls for the day.    Can't do anything much with the pandemic and all but I am very pleased and happy.     After this is all over - Bart, Barb and I are going out to a special dinner to celebrate the occasions we missed during all of this   I want it to be on me.   Anybody else want to come?

Got a bit of cleaning done today also.    Kerry is going to start cleaning again next Tuesday.    It just takes me too long to get things done and I don't get everything.   Things are settling a bit and I know Kerry wouldn't come if she had any symptoms.

Don't exactly know what I did with the above paragraph, but it does make the blog look interesting, don't you think?

Love you all - Stay well.    Thanks for all the birthday wishes.    I feel loved.

A day mostly at home.  Though I did go to the drug store and the wine store today.  

It was cloudy most of the day.  But the temps were in the 60s and 70s.

I kept myself busy by doing some cleaning around the house.,    I have asked Kerry to come back next Tuesday to start cleaning for me again.    I just get too tired.    Boy am I every spoiled.   It is all Dick's fault.   He is the one who made me a queen:)     I love it too.

Hope this pandemic stuff ends soon.  
Prayers for all of you

Whew.    I finally had a busy day.

Shawn came today to reset my shed in the back.     He had to move it off of the rotten base it was on, build a new and good base and attach the shed to it and haul off all the rotten floor from the first installation.     Looks so good.

Also, Dan and Han came and mowed my lawn today.    So poor Vita was on overload.    She is getting quite friendly and greets most people.    She did bark at Shawn's father in law, but he was doing something she didn't understand.   

The day was perfect for all this work.

I am so relieved to have these things done.     Vita and I went for a couple of walks today too.  Only two more projects to be done.    The only major is trying to get grass to grow in a shady back yard.
I am getting lots of advice:)

I started today at the chiropractor's office, Dr. Toy.     He is working on getting my back and shoulder to stop aching.    It is not bad and usually hurts then goes away for a while.

I heard from two dear friends today and had nice talks with them.    I can't tell you how much it means to me to have a voice in the house to talk to even if it is on the telephone.

Generally, the rest of the day was quiet.   Vita and I went for three walks today so I hope she is a happy girl.

I am feeling well.

Another day at home.     It was sunny and warm.    Vita and I had a couple of really good walks.    She is getting demanding.     Could be a problem:)

Aunt Kathleen called today.    I was so glad to talk to her as she, of course, loved George and I am sure just wanted to talk about him   AND the fact that I will be 80 on Thursday.    Aunt Kathleen is my godmother.   I am so proud to say.     She is 96 years old and as young as I am.

Otherwise it has been a quiet day.    Bart called this afternoon.    He always checks in on me, bless his soul.   I am a lucky Mom.

Tomorrow I think I will bake some bread and Lavender Scones.     I have to see Dr. Toy too.    Good thing.   My shoulder has been aching lately.

Hope you are all well.     I wish I could hug every one of you!!!
