Plans Changed In A Minute

 Yesterday was sunny and warm. The high got to 24C (humidex 26C). It did get cloudy late in the afternoon. This morning it is cloudy and 13C. Today we are to be cloudy with some showers in the morning and evening. The high is supposed to be 23C (humidex 25C). 

Lifestyle

Yesterday's plans went out the door. I got to the community hall to make sandwiches and found out that daughter-in-law and I were serving the luncheon at the hall after the celebration of life. 

We got the sandwiches made for that luncheon and I took grandson into town for his yoga session. Taking backroads got me there and back quickly as I didn't have to sit in line where they are doing road work. We got the next batch of sandwiches done and cleaned up the kitchen. Daughter-in-law and I finished setting up the hall in a hurry. She had to go and pick up grandson and I headed home to shower and get on nice clothes. I was back at the hall 30 minutes later to turn on the coffee pots. 

Daughter-in-law and I did a bit of cleaning while we waited for the people to arrive. The lady who looks after catering arrived with the sizes of the turkeys to make sure they had enough for a dinner mid June. The hint was out for daughter-in-law to cook them. We both ignored that as it is grandson's graduation weekend. We are busy that weekend. 

Once the people arrived and had their luncheon, we cleaned up. We work well together getting the jobs done quickly and efficiently. I was home by 2:30 pm and promptly fell asleep on the couch. I did have a short nap. 

I was out again just after 5 pm to have dinner at family's. We had smoked ribs and they were delicious. Tasty and smoked to perfection. We had a short visit and I was home by 7 pm.

Knitting

I did knit on the socks last night and got 14 rounds done. 

I am almost half done the foot but I was too tired to do 5 more rounds. 

Thoughts

    I was surprised at how well I did being on my feet so much yesterday. I pushed at times as I was tired. But I didn't have as much pain as I thought I would. I had my usual crack in the SI joint during the night. I have very little pain this morning even though I didn't have the best sleep. 

    The barometric pressure is going down again as some rain is coming in. I am sure my knees will hurt if it drops much more. So far they aren't aching so I am hoping it won't happen. We do need the moisture so I will hobble if my knees ache. 

    I was surprised at how many cases of measles have been reported in Canada. There has been one reported case in Nova Scotia with 4 provinces/territories reporting no cases. Is this just a bad year for measles or will the number of cases continue to rise in the coming years. 

Today

I am out to make sandwiches shortly. Once done, I have a few things to do before coming home. I would like to finish grandson's bag for his scales and start cutting out the Nova Scotia plaid bag. I want to knit tonight. I am hoping for a quiet day today. 

Until the next time........................................................................
