Labor Day

Hope everyone had a nice Labor Day.

We didn't do anything exciting on this warm and humid holiday. We were up around 7:30 to spruce the house a little for a visit from Daughter and Great-Grandson. Since they weren't scheduled to be here until afternoon, I went ahead and did a treadmill and weights exercises session.

After I was ready for the day, Mother and I gathered materials for making a greeting card, but we didn't make it today. We'll do it tomorrow. It's a somewhat complicated card based on a magazine craft idea, so we need to focus on the instructions without distraction.

For the period of time before Daughter arrived, we relaxed...Mother dozed in the rocking chair, Hubbie alternately read his novel and dozed, and I read my novel. Daughter got here around 3:30 p.m.

We visited for a couple of hours. Hubbie brought the six kittens into the sun room, and two-year-old Great-Grandson observed but did not try to pet them. He hasn't had much experience with animals, so he didn't know quite what to make of the them.

Daughter stayed for supper at 5 p.m. We had barbecue pork sandwiches on wheat hamburger buns, baked potatoes, cole slaw, corn-on-the-cob, bean salad, and fresh tomatoes, with cantaloupe for dessert.

Daughter and Great-Grandson left shortly after supper, and we spent the evening as usual...watching TV, including a two-part "Cold Case" episode, and a Masterpiece Theater mystery.
