It was odd as for the first 30+ minutes it was just Barb (our leader) and myself until Becky came. It was just the 3 of us but was a really good study. Afterwards, with a quick stop at work, I headed to the dentist. Today was the day for the failed root canal tooth to be extracted. I specifically asked for…elizabethbit in # actifit • 2 days ago • 2 min readMonday Randomness….....North Cascade WanderingsIt’s Monday-not a bad thing; just a thing! Not much was happening here. We spent some time in the hot tub this morning. I am surprised it doesn’t help my aches and pains like you might would think. It’s better while in but not so much once out. 🙄 Such is life…..😏 I needed to roast coffee for us and ended up roasting 5 pounds.

We got up and headed to church this morning, but as always, I prepped our espresso drinks to go. I’d been noticing that the espresso machine, a Casabrew Neuron Pro, was lacking steaming power and it took FOREVER to steam the milk. I opted to zap the milk in the microwave and figured…elizabethbit in # actifit • 4 days ago • 2 min readHappy Caturday Everybody! 😽😸…….......North Cascade WanderingsHappy Caturday! Give your precious furry feline friends treats and love! 😸 I slept in a little. I haven’t been sleeping super soundly lately although not sure why. Maybe it’s the extra added stress at work. 🙄 Anyway, after coffee and breakfast, spent a little time in the garden swing. It’s a little cooler than the past few days but still…elizabethbit in # actifit • 5 days ago • 2 min readTGIF! 😎🌞😁……...North Cascade WanderingsTGIF! I am glad it’s Friday! Seemed like it took longer this week! Work was super busy at least during the morning and early afternoon. However by mid afternoon, it’d slowed down quite a bit. There were 2 appointments I had to reschedule yesterday because our new doc can’t take their insurance yet. Nobody called to schedule for today, so he…elizabethbit in # actifit • 6 days ago • 2 min readSweet Dreams?!……........North Cascade WanderingsSuch a cute little girl! More on Phoenix in a bit. Work was busy for me today. Marissa had to go see about her leg she hurt on Tuesday, so she left shortly after noon. Turns out that she tore a calf muscle rather than her Achilles like we originally thought. Although not as severe, still not a good thing. With the added responsibilities at…elizabethbit in # actifit • 7 days ago • 2 min readIs It Friday-Yet?!……….......North Cascade WanderingsWednesday is always busy! It’s packed with dealing with things that crept up while I was gone, verifying insurance for the day’s appointments, and finishing any jobs left over from the previous week. Not to mention usually having to unearth the myriad of stuff that somehow covers the entire surface of my desk!

Today also happens to be our oldest son’s birthday as well! He’s getting up there, lol! 😁 Today was also what I originally thought would be the last ladies Bible study until September, however now it looks like there will be a week in late August and one just after Labor Day in September instead. September?! Really…elizabethbit in # actifit • 9 days ago • 5 min readMonday Sunshine!🌞………....North Cascade WanderingsThis morning dawned sunny and cool. A beautiful day to start the day in the hot tub! It was a nice soak. While in it, mama deer and baby stopped by. My phone was indoors so I didn’t get a picture. Baby was very curious about the humans in that strange contraption! I began a project of going through an old stack of junk mail that somehow…elizabethbit in # actifit • 10 days ago • 3 min readA Quiet Sunday…….....North Cascade WanderingsWith the kids in Hungary 🇭🇺 with baby Olivia, it was a quiet morning. It’s 9 hours ahead of our time zone so it was heading towards late afternoon/early evening for them. I’m sure with jet lag and a baby who doesn’t understand jet lag, they were probably trying to catch up on sleep missed from their flight.

Poor girl does miss her human dad, but her human grandma and grandpa are a good stand in for the time being. Right now, this is where Bill, Agi and Olivia are as of 6:12 PM.

More on that in a minute but first, you can see from this next picture that Cyle was not concerned, at least at first…… Cyle does love a good baking in the sun! 😻 Bill got a later start than planned and didn’t arrive until noon.

It’s actually my Friday. Some weeks ago I made arrangements to have this Friday off so I could be home when our son Bill comes up to bring Phoenix up to stay with us while they are in Hungary. It’s the last time I’ll get to see him before they leave. It would be absolutely perfect if his wife Agi and baby…elizabethbit in # actifit • 14 days ago • 3 min readSunshine Today! 🌞………....North Cascade WanderingsThe rain is over for the time being. The nice thing is that the temperatures are moderate as well. I’m sure somewhere along the line, the heat will catch up with us, but for now, I’m hopeful it will be delayed.

Mondays are okay, and even though I had to work today, it didn’t go downhill until late afternoon. Somehow, despite everyone being on time, my new doc got seriously behind.

I’ve been noticing between us and our neighbor, when coming home from work, the abundance of blackberries! I’d been meaning to go picking, but the hot weather put me off and then work came along.

Eventually, I will have her train the first time contact lens wearers. It helps if you can empathize and understand what the first…
