It sounds like you are in heaven!!!!!

I totally understand, but would guess it won't all stay.

118.6. Same - still some junk in the house yesterday but all will be cleared out by mid-morning. 6 of the weekend guests left last night and the remaining 2 leave this morning. So it will be just DH, Justice and me.

The wake and funeral for DH's friend's wife is right on the days we were supposed to be in Bar Harbor. It appears online that the same room is available the next 2 nights so we are trying to change it but haven't been able to reach them either via email or phone. It is an Inn so there aren't always people there to attend to business. Must try and reach them again today.

The beach was beautiful yesterday but I will probably skip it today. DH is golfing this morning and I will do the long Justice walk alone and work at getting the house totally back in order. I am hoping that the remainder of the chips and refrigerator junk goes, but if not will just dump what we won't eat and won't keep for a while. They probably won't be back for at least a month. Friends from central Massachusetts and now the Cape are coming our way for the afternoon music venue, then to dinner at our new favorite restaurant tonight. Maybe back to the house afterwards if there is time to have a fire in the backyard pit.

Have a lovely Labor Day!

Disturbing that the tariffs don't just raise cost but affect the supply as well.

I hope the museum visit was enjoyable. Five years? What could take that long? I couldn't live with any project that lengthy.

Greetings all

It is overcast today but calm. In a little while studio buddy and I are going to the art museum for a couple of particular shows. The museum is an old Carnnigee Library building and is a work of art itself. After that we will likely go to this one bar for burgers. So I will skip the gym but likely get in a few steps. Studio buddy is still building her house but hopeful of getting in to it by the year end. It has only been five years...

So Peps you have a dog stole. Mine like to do that too- get on my shoulder and lurk like a gargoyle. Isn't retirement fun?? Do whatever you want on whatever day you want and don't feel like you have to ration your weekends. Ouchie massage?

Liz sorry about the wife of DH friend. My sil died the same way - felt crappy and we dragged her to the hospital only to find she was full of cancer. Died a day later. Glad your DD is doing well. And yeah, whatever is in the yard that the dogs might make a mess of will indeed happen. Out here it is redwood bark and needles.

Another dinner of chili tonight. This has been an especially good batch I must say.

Last night was art night up at the gallery. We had big sales and I sold 5 things. Gotta get busy. Our studio is being affected by tariffs now. We buy raw materials to make glazes - like silica and feldspar and many are imported. Same materials that are used to make glass and other refractory products. Some are completely unavailable now. We may have to redesign our glazes or even firing temperatures. A big deal.

Yooo Hoo DD! on the ferry?
