Even though it was overcast, it was fairly warm so the Beast and I went out and cleaned all the weeds out of the flower box out front. He left his two Judas lilies (one is an offshoot of the original) and we cleared a huge pile of small but long-rooted weeds out. He then put a huge bag of topsoil in it and I planted my bulbs. THAT was a pain in the butt because you have to be careful how close you plant them and the requirements are different for each. Since you want them to display nicely, you have to be sure to plant them in rows. I took a few liberties and offset many of them. I had more bulbs than I thought I did so I didn't end up planting them all. A few felt like they were dried out so those didn't get planted at all. I wasn't going to waste our time with them...just in case.
The Princess and Gunner came over for a visit and had lunch with us. We had tacos, which is a nice easy meal to make. I used the leftover taco meat to make us taco salad for our dinner. Those turned out delish! The Beast enjoyed it although he hadn't been all that enthused when I started making it.
The Beast and I both overslept this morning so we didn't go to the proctologist's office to pick up my supplies and schedule the procedure today. We have to go tomorrow or end up waiting until next Monday. He only has office hours three days a week where you can come in. The rest of the time, the girls are there but only to answer phones. You cannot make an appointment for any procedure unless you come into the office. That's when they give you any supplies you will need. You must bring in all medications and over the counter things you are taking so the girls can make the notes on them for the doctor. He has two offices....one in Guntersville and the other in Boaz. One is the town north of us and the other is just south of us. I think which office you use also determines which hospital he uses since we have one in each of those cities. We are going to the Boaz office tomorrow since I like the south hospital best. I've spent time in both and I like the nurses best at the south location.
The Beast wants to stop at his eye doctor's office after we do that and make sure he is going to have his procedure done on his lenses on Thursday. The Princess is going to take him to his appointment on Thursday. She volunteered when he mentioned it. I think everyone is trying to protect me because they think I am crippled up still. Sheesh. This is going to have to stop soon. I'm really getting tired of it.
Gunner was adorable. He is such a happy, smiling baby. He's really good natured and quite an eater of solid food. He loves pancakes, mashed potatoes and a lot of other foods that surprised me. He may only have two teeth right now but it doesn't stop him. He is, however, getting other teeth in soon. I could tell by the way he was chewing on his fingers and even his Nuk. He kept turning it so that he had the stronger sides and chewing on it. It was massaging his gums where they were uncomfortable. But he was still smiling and happy. He pulls himself into a standing position as long as he has something he can grab onto. The Princess says he gets brave on occasion and will stand without anything to hold onto but then he goes down on his butt or else grabs back onto whatever he used to stand up.
Well, the weatherman is saying our weather will be sunny and 80 degrees tomorrow. Wheeeee! My kind of weather....LOL! No rain until Friday when we will be getting thunderstorms. It will not be great weather for the kids who will be going camping but I believe they DO have an awning and they also have a pushout on the camper so they won't feel claustrophobic if they have to stay indoors all day. It will be a new experience for them. I just hope it isn't pouring when they have to set everything up since a lot of stuff has to be done outdoors.
Love you all. Have a wonderful Hump Day. Be careful driving, please. ***Hugs***
