Tuesday, after dinner, I looked at my husband and asked, “Do you need me for anything in particular this afternoon?”. He said that he didn’t, so I decided to make my Billings provision run. I called for a last-minute hair appointment - I was able to get in at 3:30. That was my first stop. As glamorous as I get, I visited some friends who farm on the west end - long enough for some iced tea and a bit of conversation. By the time I left it was windy, rumbling and threatening a storm. I ran into Randy in a parking lot - no not literally - I was on foot at the time. I got to see his new girl - very pretty!

I had a framed photo that I wanted a new frame for and a family portrait in a gilt oval frame that I wanted restored. I had planned to stop at the Frame Hut. By the time I pulled into their lot it was after six and they were closed. Oh well, another day, I thought. From there I drove to Rimrock Mall. I can’t remember the last time I was there. It had to be a few years. My friend, Alice Ann swears by these Crocs. I decided to try a pair, and I knew that they sold them at Village Shoes. I walked into the mall right by the food court. I had no idea where the shoe store was, but I didn’t think that I could get too lost. Next thing I knew I was standing at a store called Deck the Walls. I walked in and explained what I had, and what I needed. Then I went back to the car to get my photos. Tami was very helpful. She gave me some ideas - and together we picked out new framing for my old Snook Art photo of a Hereford herd. While she worked on that I found the shoe store and tried on a pair of Crocs. Funny looking? You bet! But comfortable - mine are blue. My photo was finished - great job, too. I left the portrait for their restorer to examine.

I’ve since found out that the family portait is a convex photograph
which I knew nothing about before visiting that web site. I left the mall content and a few dollars lighter. On to grocery shopping and home by 10:30.

Yesterday was spent in the garden and the house. We’re finally getting some growing weather. The crops and garden are coming along, and the weeds are doing well. I only have two rows to hoe - but they’re long ones.

Afternoon snack time had Ty and I looking all over the place for my husband. For crying out loud - the ice pops were melting. I drove up and down the lane and couldn’t find him. Then I noticed an extension cord - it’s bright yellow - so we followed it.

No wonder we didn’t see the Sugar Beet Baron.
He was hiding between equipment with the power washer.

I didn’t know that dogs like banana ice.
But you learn something new every day.

Which brings me to my entry for Half-Nekkid Thursday:

The pickup was parked. I don’t drink and drive. If you click on the photo and look closely, you can see my new blister.
