Welcome to #Checkin for Friday, September 27, 2024!

Why howdy there #Checkin people, it’s me, Rod again. It’s FRIDAY! The ACTUAL 27th of September! Not the wrong one like yesterday

I guess that forgiveness thingy that was posted yesterday goes double, as it was meant for today, but I got it all wrong.
I sincerely apologize for the oversight.

Let's see what's on the schedule for today:

The kids (my son and his spouse) are in town and I am so excited and can hardly wait to see them! They are going to take me out for breakfast, probably at some chic little Vegan restaurant. (sigh) Speaking of Veganism, I never did get that Corned Beef Rueben yesterday. I did get some truly stellar beef tacos for dinner, though.

The kids are all sporty, so after brekkie we’ll probably walk around some local park, beach, or hiking trail. Here's a link to a typical photo of them (Preservation Trail near Juneau, AK.) I’d probably better wear my comfy walking shoes. Maybe I’ll wear my compression wrap and take my cane just in case. Val says the only precaution I need is to k-tape my knee. Should I do it all? Not that I'm one to ever overdo or over prepare... Knee brace maybe? (Yes? No?)

It’s my birthday on Monday, so they’ll probably bring some gift. They know I like books and music, and it’s always interesting what they give me. Last time they wee in town they brought me a big bag of battery power tools, knowing that my old house requires a lot of regular upkeep and repair. It’s been great tackling the many small jobs around without having to run a power cord out. I just open the bag, grab the tool, slap in the battery, and go. Fabulous.
What the place really needs right now is some stucco and concrete repair, and I should probably get the gutters back up before the rainy part. Ah, the joys of home ownership.

Once again, the topic is always open.
