Poppy in New Jersey

Poppy's shed is really nice and large.  He has a back yard, where he has a round picnic table with benches and parking on both sides of his mobile home.

Poppy's house overlooks the bay and he can sit at his kitchen table and watch the ducks and birds and once it gets warmer, he can watch all of the boats pulling in and out of the boat slips.  He likes watching people outside his window.

There are two bedrooms, one with a queen bed and one with a twin.  His rower is in the twin bedroom and he gets his exercise there.  He loves the comfortable chairs in the living room. 

It came furnished.

Poppy's Digs

We put in a new kitchen floor and painted the walls, but overall the place was in great condition.

It's been awhile since I have blogged because I have been so busy getting my dad moved down to his new home in Bay Breeze Village, Egg Harbor Township, NJ.  But here are some pictures of dad (Poppy) in his new home.

When Will It All Stop?

 My Basement is a royal mess - blah!!!!!
It's been a long two weeks in my basement.  First the plumber said my hot water heater was leaking, because it was rusted underneath, then the toilet tank underneath the toilet (one of those that flush up) and now the copper piping leading to the main water line has a hole in it and needs to be replaced. All I can see is $$$$$$$$ going down the drain - HELP!!!!!!!!!!!

A Great Day in Atlantic City

Daddy enjoyed visiting with his friends in Atlantic City....they all are in great health except for Paul, who now needs a walker instead of a cane.  We laughed so hard at Gracie, who is a riot.  My friend, Joyce came along too. 

Here I Go Again!

I'm packing my suitcase....ready to go again.  Heading to PA and then to Boston with my sister, Ginny for a long weekend.  Going to see a Boston College Football game and then hang out in Boston all night.  Then Monday I head to the Atlantic City Casinos with my dad and my friend, Joyce.  We'll meet up with Paul and Gracie (my dad's friends from back in the day, who are both also in their 90's).  They go to the casinos two to three times a week and we meet them now and then....my dad loves it!  Who knew?

Busy, Busy, Busy

What else is new.....I'm just always busy!  The month of August was filled with family visiting in Maryland....taking trips to Assateaque Park (lots of horses this visit) and just enjoying the kids and grandkids' company!

Hot, Hot, Hot

 I can't stand this hot weather - blah!  I am watching J.D. for two weeks in Maryland since Kate has to teach CCD's Summer Course.  He is very active and very talkative during the day.  He is always making me pretend smoothies, sweet tea and coffee with his kitchen appliances Sr. Mary Joseph gave us for the kids.  He has been in his swimming pool a couple of days this week and is having fun shooting his water pistol.  I've been out in the garage cleaning up after my big sale last weekend.....it's so hot out there, but I wanted to get my car back in so it wasn't so hot in the car everytime I wanted to go somewhere.
