The weather seems to have turned cold suddenly after being up in the 70s and 80s. It was 44 when I first went out and was going through town; later it got to 65 but felt colder than that, probably due to the strong breeze. It was very bright and sunny though.
I went to the monthly AARP meeting this morning. It is not really terribly interesting but I go to catch up with Phyllis who was there with her husband, Joe, and that was good. It is held in the cafeteria of a Baptist church school, and the lunch is always typically "school" food. In fact it is the same meal every month.
Apart from that everything else has been run-of-the-mill. I watched television while I crocheted, but for practically all the afternoon I became increasingly irritated by the local barking dogs. I wondered why Americans have dogs, they're not treated as pets - no, I shouldn't make such sweeping generalisations, I am sure there are millions of Americans who love and cherish their animals - just not round here. The people opposite were out and their dog was tied up in the front yard - on what I considered to be too short a leash - and barked all the afternoon. The Animal Welfare place is closed on Saturdays, I did pick up the phone to complain to the police, then put it down again. Reminded myself that my days of having to listen to barking dogs are numbered - hooray!!!!
So not wildly exciting, but that has been my day.
