Today Is Friday, October 18, 2024: This Is What Happened.

 


Yesterday, Murphy and I went down to Post Falls to visit his sister Faith. She will be having back surgery sometime next week.

I am not counting childbirth or colonoscopy. I have only had three things done in a hospital in my lifetime. Tonsils, hernia, and tubes tied.

She sure has a different perspective on money. Her income is quite a bit more than ours. She takes weight-loss drugs. They cost her just under $150 a month, which is almost 12 % of our income.




We had lunch at the senior center. They had chicken fried steak, which was tender and tasty. I stopped by the community action center to see about the energy assistant. The form isn’t there yet, but it could be possible at the end of this month or the beginning of next month.

We drove up to Northern Homestead, got some weatherized items for our outside basement door, dropped off some items at the animal thrift store, and just looked around a little.




Also yesterday. I got some artist trading cards. I did a little art this afternoon. And did some general chores around the place. Today, art for Wiki art is called “A worker with a lamp,” which was done by FERNAND LEGER. Here is more of Leger, WORKS

It took me long enough to complete the quilt block. I recently found SU.E. KREITZMAN on YouTube. She loves color, and so do I. I’m also linking to FACE OFF and ART FOR FRIDAY.


Coffee is on.

  3. How did you select your nick as Peppy? My husband's name, Joseph, is Peppa in Czech, which I still use in Australia. It is a very cute name.

  10. Chicken fried steak is so good. My brother has had several back surgeries and after seeing what's he's gone through I would never let them operate on my back or neck.

First day of winter in the northern hemisphere. As I look out my window the world is foggy. Today I'm going to take part in two memes. ...
