Week 22

Welcome back and happy Tuesday!  Last week was mostly about food and drinks or at least that's what I took the most pictures of as you would expect when the social scene starts to open back up again. It's been great getting back out there cautiously to meet and spend time with friends we haven't seen in way too long, and we look forward to continuing that trend.

Here's a look at how the week went:

Day 151- Monday, 5/31/21

We had a great Memorial Day kicking off summer and thinking of those who have lost their lives fighting for this country.  It was also super hot (104 degrees) so more time was spent in the pool and for dessert we cooled off with root beer floats.

 

Day 152- Tuesday, 6/1/21

Welcome to June! It most certainly feels like summer and with this heat a great deal of time this month will be spent by or in this pool.  It's almost a must have in this area to help manage the summer months.  Later I headed to Davis for dinner and drinks with the girls from work.  It was all so good--the drinks, the food, and the wonderful company.  Hopefully we can make this happen monthly now and start to rebuild those connections we crave and have missed for so long.

Day 153- Wednesday, 6/2/21

Poor kitty boy is not a fan of the new tub because the edge is too narrow for him to use as a jumping point for getting on the bathroom counter where he would normally drink from the sink.  He has no front claws which makes it harder to jump to high places without different levels to help him out. Eventually someone will take pity on him and give him a lift.  Right behind us is the view into the bedroom where he does like the new bench at the foot of the bed.  It's his favorite thing to use as a scratching post even though he has not claws to scratch with.

Day 154- Thursday, 6/3/21

Brandon asked me to make penne pasta today so that's what we had for dinner.  Now that tennis is over dinner planning and making will be so much easier.  After dinner Justin geared up to walk Bella.

Day 155- Friday, 6/4/21

John is away today for a track day with his bike while we are at Whitey's celebrating Brandon's last day of 11th grade with milkshakes.  It's kind of humid and really hot out so we baked in the car waiting for curbside delivery (hence my deflated look), but it was worth it. My baby boy is officially now a high school senior!

Day 156- Saturday, 6/5/21

This was a fun day with a great wine tasting experience at Bogle winery near us.  We met up with Deb and Doug there.  She's a college friend of over 30 years now so it was great to catch up and enjoy this beautiful day outside together.  Not too windy or too hot and the place was recently remodeled accepting reservations only so it wasn't crowed either.  

Day 157- Sunday, 6/6/21

Rusty is so cute using the banister edge as an arm rest.  This is one of his go-to resting spots. Later, after a trip to the store for supplies, Justin and I decided to use the over-ripe bananas (turned way too quickly from the excess heat) to make bread.  Yum!

That's it!  Hope to see you back next week.
