Good Morning, All! Prayers going out to all in Irma's path, and wake, this morning...
Chilly here this morning at 46*F; expected high of 77*F, so it will be a nice day to work outside once it warms up just a bit. I have plenty of housework to do inside between now and then, anyway
Daughter and SIL's flight left early this morning for the hop to Atlanta; then on to Saint Lucia. Not something I would have done on a bet, but they are adults so I just wished them a safe trip - and then made sure my phone was fully charged... If I don't hear anything from them, I will be in touch with daughter's step-mom (grands are spending the weekend with them) later in the day to see if they let the kids know they got to the island safely.
Plans for today include cleaning the fridge, getting fall wreaths made and taken to the cemetery, gathering the pumpkins from the garden and getting them up to the porch to cure, picking the bell peppers now that they are finally changing color and getting some of them put in the freezer - I'll cut some along the lobes, then stack them together with wax paper between each before vacuum sealing them for use in stuffed peppers. I also need to clean out all the bird feed barrels (and figure out what Hubby did with one of them - betting it's in his shop or down at the range!) so that I can start stocking up on feed again. If I have more time, I'll spend it working some more on garden/yard clean-up.
Co-worker Buddy will be out later today with the Sunday papers; hoping for some decent sales on stock up items. The mid week ads were generally nothing to write home about; about the only thing I noticed is that soup sales are starting to show up again, as are coupons for soup.
Tonight before we go to bed, we'll pull the chicken I bought on sale last week (week before?) out of the freezers and set it to thaw in the coolers so that I can start working it up tomorrow - which reminds me that Hubby needs to sharpen some knives today; better put that on the list
Guess I'd better get up and get moving if I want to get all that done today - and besides, my coffee cup is empty
Take care all; stay safe out there...
