Ed, could I invite Mutt and myself to your house for supper?? Guess we'd have to
fly down, since we don't have passenger train service here anymore. And I'll
bring you a peach cobbler, too.

Sorry I missed lunch, but we decided to work through and get the floor finished. We done!!! Looks good. I'm tired, but I'll take the special before I crash.

Well, since it looks like no one ate lunch today, how about this for supper?

tuna melt sandwiches and fries. And the peach cobbler w/ice cream for
dessert.

Yes and no. I settled for some toast with butter and cinnamon/sugar on it, one of my favorite late-night snacks, especially when it's made using that home-baked bread!

Yum! (Except the burgers--they're still off my menu, for at least another day or two).

Ah Ha! Was "scrubbling" around in the cleaning closet for "supplies" and ran across a lonesome blueberry muffin. CW, you gotta start making notes where you hide things! It must have been a couple of hours old.....RIP.....

Another day in Fantasyland!

Coffee and cantaloupe, please.

I gotta head for the hammock - it is taxing my delicate nervous system.....

I'd thought I would work on my music last night. I got so involved I forgot to check the time. Little did I know I would go to bed at 4:30am.

I'm rather tired but satisfied with my music finally after a long writers block.

Good morning everyone! Brian, did you find you some dessert in the fridge?
And Andrew, I made extra coffee this morning, just so you come have some
extra.
Juice is ready, as well as coffee and tea (regular & herbal on the tea).

Breakfast this morning: The good ole fashioned kind: little bit of everything
has been fixed this morning. Turkey bacon, ham w/red eye gravy, sausage
and biscuits & gravy, toast, cinnamon toast, French toast, scrambled eggs,
grits, fried potatoes, hash browns, and pancakes.

Brian, I'm not really sure what desserts are left,but look
in the cooler,and I imagine you'll find at least pie and ice cream.

Andrew, if you drink much more of that coffee you'll be awake all night !!

I hate it when people repeat themselves, don't you. After awhile you feel like strangling them.

I'll have some coffee please. I'll have some coffee please. I'll have some coffee please. I'll have some coffee please.

Oh I forgot to ask for some coffee please.
