The Friday Five Good Things


Five good things that happened this week.

1. We took an early Mother's Day trip to the cemetery and had brunch at the Cracker Barrel

2. The Orthofeet shoes I ordered over the weekend arrived. They fit much better than the Skechers. Tie once and then slip in. They also have a 60 day walk around in them trial

3. I put the cat bell and tiny bells stakes in the garden.

4. There was a big bang from the  landscaper truck parked next to us in the grocery store lot. A bang and a puff of smoke. No one was shaken, just stirred. Himself thought the dump truck bed wasn't seated right and just decided to seat itself properly. The landscaper when he came out of the store and we told him what happened wasn't concerned.

5. Another play Day at Teague's. We returned the Skechers and had lunch at Red Heat Tavern

How was your week?

    1. Oh, no! You and Himself. He threw his back out on Thursday. I got him the generic back patches with lidocaine and a lidocaine roller. We didn't have a heating pad so I went to Target and bought a large one. He's been enjoying the heating pad. Btw, you can't use the lidocaine patches or roller at the same time as a heating pad.

    1. The windchime sounds awesome. Yup, a good independent step for the granddaughter to go with her class on the field trip without mom or dad. You'll have to blog about the Color Run

    1. It is and you don't have to tie them. I hate tying shoes. Tie once and just step in and out

  6. The shoes do look comfortable.

    The week has gone so quickly, here in the UK it's a bank holiday weekend, for many no work or school on Monday.
    The grandchildren all have big smiles on their faces about this :)

    All the best Jan

  7. A wise old man once said to me, "If you walk a mile or two in someone else's shoes, they'll arrest you for stealing them!"

    Anyway, I had to buy new shoes recently. The old ones had a hole and it let in water. So I made another hole so that the water got out. Didn't work!

    God bless.
