Good 40º sunny Sunday! Hit 73º yesterday! What a beautiful day. I got some
of the herbs I bought planted in planter boxes for the porch. Jason came up and
picked up dead fall and weed-eated. He'll be back today to do more.

(Laughing) one comment of only two re my smoking rant on Friday.. and it
was Debbie that asked if she still smokes will I still love her. Of course~! I
just worry and am concerned for my friends who have ignored all the warnings and
signs. I still think the world of my friends. After all, I loved Jerry, and he
smoked. (and ... it did contribute to his death!) So......
here's a Maxine on the lighter side....

Yesterday was Tucker's baseball game....

friend ... Brian snacked too. Jen took pictures.
There is one little girl on this little league team, Emily. She is a
pistol! Plays as well as the boys! And is a real cutie!
After the game I went over to Bill and Jeannie's for a visit. Took Chaka
some treats and enjoyed a wine in their little gazebo by the bubbling pond and they even have some "ribbitting" frogs in the pond! Didn't see them, but we chatted. LOL. Nice
day!
All I know. Nuff said. Happy Sunday. Ciao.
