Up at 7:30 to a dark day, with thunder rumbling in the distance. It wasn't long before the rain started. Only got about a half inch, but more is predicted for tomorrow.
Did stair stepping exercises after breakfast, but skipped weights exercises, since I got a really good resistance workout at the pool yesterday.
Hubbie accompanied Mother to our house as soon as the rain abated. Before I went upstairs, I washed the Venus grapes we got at the grape festival, and mother removed them from the stems, while I got ready for the day.
We decided to juice them, since Hubbie isn't fond of them as table grapes. When I got back downstairs, I set the grapes to simmer for ten minutes. Once the grapes had cooled, Mother and I squeezed them in a juicing bag. If we have time tomorrow, we'll make jelly from the juice.
After lunch, I mixed a boxed chocolate cake, which Mother put into cupcake pans. Then we watched several episodes of "Wind at My Back."
Later, Mother helped me prepare bagel pizzas for supper. We had them with salad and cottage cheese, and cupcakes for dessert.
Then we resumed watching "Wind at My Back," until around 8:30, when Mother was ready to go home. Hubbie accompanied her.
Hubbie and I finished the evening watching a couple of one-hour programs.

Note: I'm sort of concerned for the grandson of the lady who stands beside me at water aerobics. He's a helicopter paramedic, and a very good one apparently, since he was assigned to go to Saudia Arabia to work. It's a six-month-on/six-month-off type of job, but it pays very well. However, with the current threats from that region, I'm sure my friend is on pins and needles worrying about his safety.
