House Pictures

Coker, Alabama

Weather: low 72 degrees, high 94 degrees, clear skies

A high pressure area went through here last night. As a result, we woke up to lower humidity than normal. In addition, we had some more wind, which helped make it more comfortable outside.

We went out to Terri's house earlier than we usually do so we could make sure the house looked good for the pictures the Realtor wanted to take for the Internet. We had been there about a half hour when the Realtor called and said she was on the way. Everyone pitched in and had the house looking great in no time. The picture taking went well, and the Realtor said they will be available for viewing tomorrow. She also said she has gotten several calls on the house, so there is some interest in it. The calls came because of the signs that were put up last Thursday. Maybe when the ads come out, it will be even better.

In addition to the work on the house, I did some mowing so the yard would continue to look good. I shouldn't have to do any yard work for a few days, which is okay with me.

Terri and Lori took their kids to a water park up at Bessemer for the day. The kids love that kind of thing, but we have gotten over it. We stayed at home and took it easy. In the afternoon, we went to Sam's Club for some things we use. On the way back, I stopped at the library and picked up some new books to read. As I have mentioned before, both of us are avid readers, and really like a good mystery. After the library, Carolyn wanted to stop at K-Mart because we haven't been there in some time. Don't worry, I didn't have a seizure because we didn't go to WalMart. We picked up a couple of things at K-Mart and came on home.

After meditating a few minutes, I got a bucket of water and wiping cloth and wiped the truck down. We are finally getting the time to do some of our chores that keep things going for us. Later in the day, Carolyn prepared spaghetti sauce and meat balls with pasta. Very tasty. All in all, not a bad day.

More later, be safe.
