I love when he goes out as I can get involved in so many things without being called every few seconds. I have started so many gardens and I am down to my last one. The weather is looking good and I am trying to get my body in motion. I bought some big shrubs and a few smaller ones and I want to get them in the ground before the very hot weather hits here in Florida. Once it gets hot outside, I do not go out unless to the pool. Hopefully I get this done today. Have a nice day everyone

@Happy2BeMe Every time I am alone I have such great intentions and then I get on here and before I know it, the day is almost gone.

@Happy2BeMe I did get some plants planted so I feel good about that. The rest of the day was a "here and there" day. My husband says I am squirreling. It is when I go from one thing to another and another. Some times I actually drive myself crazy when I get like that. I think in this day and age it is called ADHD. I have been like this since the beginning of time and at 74 years old, I am not going to change.

I hope you are able to achieve your objectives for the day. Here, we are enjoying the delicious strawberries from Florida.

@ramapo17 I must point out that the time we get great strawberries doesn't last long here. Most of the time we get lousy ones that I wouldn't take if they were free. I usually buy a small batch to try and when they are good then I buy a lot. So watch out!

@1hopefulman Wow, I hardly ever get the strawberries. I have to check into them. Usually my husband does the food shopping and gets the things he likes, like junk food and he never gets the good healthy food.

@1hopefulman Fruit seems to go bad very fast when I get it home. Now a days if something is going soft, I freeze it and then I put them in a shake. They are good like that and I don't have to throw out food.

Lol! I guess it is nice to be alone for a couple of hours just to be with yoursekf and finish what you have to do, or just enjoy the day by yourself. God bless you and your whole family.

@LadyDuck Today in Florida it is in the 70's and very comfortable. I know the heat wave will be coming soon enough.

I don't mind a day on my own here and there. Luckily golf takes Vince away from home occasionally.

That is nice. Twice a month my husband goes to the Elks meetings and he is gone for awhile. I look forward to those nights. I usually call some friends that I have spoken to in awhile.

@ramapo17 That is one of the things you have to get used to with retirement.
