They called a little after 7AM to ask if it would be okay to come if the weather cleared.

Well, the sun is shining. They arrived at about 10 and are clanking around out there, moving ladders to the back of the house. Amen!

I guess we'll be staying put for the afternoon. The painters called and want to come by for one more check of the house and to be sure the color chips meet with our approval.

We are meeting friends for dinner at 7PM tonight so we can't go too far anyhow.

My DH is working tomorrow so I'm off for the day with a friend whose DH is also working tomorrow. We're heading for Wickford Village in Rhode Island ... a quaint little town ... to browse and have lunch and talk. The ususal.

Sunday is still not settled. I have never seen four brothers who can't come to a quick decision about who will visit their DM and when. She doesn't handle crowds well, so we all can't descend upon her. If the women were in charge, this would have been settled weeks ago. Sigh!

Well! Busy days ahead! I'll see you all on Monday. Bye for now!

And Happy Mother's Day, Dear Bugs!

Francine

Hi Francine! Well, the good part--and it's very good!--is that the sun is shining! The not-so-good would be the clanking going on outside! I've never heard of Wickford Village; is it a regular town, or a shopping village? Sounds like a fun day. Yes, don't men dither about these things? LOL I'll betcha their mother, back in her day, could take them all in hand very nicely! The power of women! Hope plans come together soon and you all have a happy Mother's Day! Seren
