Even though I am now retired and having to get up and go to work, I still love Fridays. For one, my hubby is still working and I have to deal with the alarm clock. So Saturday and Sunday with no alarms are wonderful. Mom and I have been enjoying a cup of coffee and just watching Kelly and Ryan on television. We are both moving slow today after a full day of running yesterday. No plans today except to relax and maybe start packing. I also need to do a flea market run which will happen on Saturday IF I can manage to get it done. I haven't been since last month and I really need to go. Going to fix some brunch. I hope everyone has a super nice Friday. Photo Credit: Pixabay, public domain

I'm going to get with the countdown that my hubby is tracking to retirement. I will be celebrating when we don't have to have an alarm going off in the mornings.

I am like you, I am retired but Friday is still one of my favorite days of the week. It has been a sunny day here, warmer than the past days.

@LadyDuck I'm glad you had a beautiful day. It's nice here today on the Gulf Coast, sunny but hot in the mid 90's.

@crazyhorseladycx I cured mine of all that in the very beginning. He started throwing his clothes on the floor when he took them off and that is where I left them. When he finally asked where xyz was and I said, "right where you left them." He said WHAT? You didn't wash them?? I said no, and I"m not. WHY? I said you never threw clothes on the floor at your moms and I won't have it here either. I"m not picking your clothes up off the floor and washing them. If you want clean clothes put them in the dirty clothes hamper. That got fixed real fast. He is good about taking things out of pockets too. In fact, I got a phone call not long ago to please check a shirt pocket because he thought he might have left a piece of paper in there. LOL.

Hubby is off next week and will be doing some work in the hall bathroom, putting in new flooring, etc. So the girls are leaving and getting out of his way. We are headed to the Gulf Coast.

@moffittjc We had pretty good weather. Cloudy the first part of the week but the last two days were nice and sunny. I didn't even go walk on the beach. My daughter did though. She brought back a box of hermit crabs. She's 32 and still a kid at heart. I just didn't want to get in the water since a case of flesh-eating bacteria was reported over the summer there. Better safe than sorry....my motto.

@kareng Oh yeah, duh! You told me about the trip to the Gulf Coast! I hope you have a great time! Definitely keep an eye on that system sitting out in the Gulf off the west coast of Florida. I hope it doesn't ruin your beach vacation!

Oh yea, no alarm is awesome on the weekends. I still work so I really look forward to it. Who is Kelly and Ryan? Nice that you can relax and enjoy the coffee with mom. Why do you need to got to the flea market? Just cause you enjoy going and looking at all the stuff or do you sell things there?

Kelly and Ryan have a talk show on television, Kelly Rippa, and Ryan Seacrest. I do have a booth at the flea market and have to go tidy up and put some new things out.

Yes, a spur of the moment plan. Hubby took off next week to work on the hall bathroom and do a few upgrades so the ladies are vacating and running away to the Gulf Coast.

Heading to the Gulf Coast so the hubby and do some renovations in the hall bathroom next week. We will be out of his way I've been watching this tropical storm and while I'm glad it changed course for now, I'm very sad that the Bahamas is going to be hit again.
