Our patio pots & boxes include cherry tomatoes, peppers, lavender, cinnamon mint, oregano, thyme, a shamrock . . . and there's Dusty eating a carrot I tossed to him. Keep be-leaf-ing in yourself!ðŋ
Its a hot afternoon here. Its 100*. You go outside and it feels like a oven out there. I just got finished making a wreath a little while ago. I posted a picture of it in my photos. Not a lot going on here. Just staying inside where its cool. I hope you are doing good and staying cool. Take care my friend and enjoy the rest of your afternoon and evening. Hugs, Cheryl
Good afternoon to you. Its a warm and humid day here today. We are in a heat advisory until 8 p.m. tomorrow. I got up and went and got groceries this morning. Didn't go see my son today as his wife isn't feeling well and I didn't want to catch anything she had. Not much else going on. Just staying in the house where its cool. Take care my friend and stay cool. Hugs to you, Cheryl
Hello, dear friend. I've been busy tending to many doc appointments, home health, and trying to play catch-up here at home after ignoring my household chores for weeks. Maybe normal will return soon. Hope you are doing well and keeping cool & comfy during this heat. Take care! *hugs* -di
Hi there. We got almost 4.5 inches of rain in the rain guage from last night and this mornings storms. Lots of places around here flooded. Went and saw our son Trey this morning. Ate lunch with him and his wife. Then we played mini golf on the computer. I beat him twice. Then I came home. Not much else going on here. Need to take a nap. The cooler weather makes me sleepy. Well take care my friend and enjoy the rest of your day. Hugs to you, Cheryl
Happy mid-week Paula! On this whimsical Wednesday, wishing for some rain & a cool down. Not likely to happen as continued 90F (32C) temps are expected the rest of the week. Heat makes me so sleepy . . . ð
Beginning a week-long excessive heat warning in Wonderland. Lucky to be retired & not needing to go out except for grocery shopping & fetching the mail. Sitting on the patio is not too bad either. Hope you have a good week! ðš
Good afternoon. Its a warm and steamy day here. We got rain last night so its a bit on the humid side here. I can defintely do without the humid. Makes you just miserable. I hope you are having a good afternoon. Take care and have a good weekend. Hugs, Cheryl

Thinking how grateful I am for: the 4 seasons I enjoy, the birds & small critters that I feed, the nearby marsh & lake I love to gaze at, the bounty of the patio herb gardens I grow & God's hand in it all. ð°
Hi there. Its a warm and humid afternoon here. We had a very noisy, windy and rainy storm come thru here at 4:45 this morning. It even woke up Tony and that usually doesn't happen. How was your weekend? Mine was okay. Didn't do much. Went and saw Trey this morning. He is doing good. He isn't getting around much but he still can't do much with his leg for at least a month. Then hopefully he will be able to do physical therapy. Well take care my friend and enjoy your afternoon and evening. Hugs, Cheryl
Hello Paula, thank you! So glad you liked my page. Yours is looking so pretty too! I took the music player off mine recently and hope the code thing will work when i am ready to use it again. I use a code converter.
I do remember seeing a post from you about Dennis's ablation. So glad it went well for him and that it's been the key to getting him back on track. I know it was a big relief for you both and yes, he sounds like his experience was comparable to my brother's, who also had it done. He was able to return to work in a few weeks but had to stop doing the bow stringing as that takes tremendous pressure from your chest and arm muscles. (He works at Bass Pro Shop/Cablela's) and is an archery technician.
I don't think I knew you were of Scottish ancestry. How neat! I love learning about that kind of thing. I completed a DNA test kit the first of this year and it was so much fun to learn more of my ancestry details. The kit was a gift and I had been wanting to do it since they first invented them. I couldn't justify spending the money on them so it really made a perfect gift for me. Just so you know, if you ever delve further in to it. The results don't narrow your ancestry by country and I wish they did. For example, mine was 100 percent European descent but it showed 85% British and Irish, (it lumps these together) 7.8 French and German, 1% Scandanavian, and so on. If you ever can do it though, I highly recommend it! It showed the places in Ireland my ancestors most likely came from. Dublin and County Cork being 2 of them. Well dang it, we both missed the Northern Lights then. I did know they were supposed to occur but had listened to a meterologist who postulated (my new fav word, haha) that we would not see them this far south. Lo and behold the next day my Facebook feed is flooded with pics of friends and family all around me who saw and took beautiful photos of them. I never even went out to look that night! Anyway glad you had a safe trip there and back to see your family in Burlington. Hope all goes well with getting your mom settled in a facility and that she will be content there once she settles in. I know it's a huge adjustment. The new hens and rooster are doing well for the girls. They named the rooster Albus (as in Dumbledore) They are Harry Potter fans and named all the chickens accordingly. He is not agressive towards humans at all but pretty bossy towards the hen and has plucked some of their feathers out. They have outdoor cats as well but they coexist peacefully. My cats want to murder birds so I'm not sure if they'd do the same with chickens or not. Talk to you soon. Have a good new week!
Don't chase the butterflies: tend to your garden & the butterflies will come to you. (although I must say my plants have had enough rain-some sunshine please!)ðĶ
Hi there. I hope you are having a good Friday. Mine has been a busy one. We have a Wedding to go to tomorrow evening, and tonight we got to the Rehearsal. This is Tony's sister that is getting married tomorrow. I made a casserole to take tomorrow for after the wedding. Then I went to Walmart and got the things we needed. Then on Sunday afternoon we will be going to the cemetaries to decorate the graves. So a busy weekend for us. The wedding is going to be outside and it supposed to get up to 90* and be windy. At least I'm wearing a dress so it won't be to bad. My dress is white with pink roses on it. I'm going to be at the table where everyone signs their name at the guestbook and then I will be either serving punch or cutting cake. Well have a great weekend my friend and take care. Hugs, Cheryl
Good afternoon to you. Its a beautiful day here. Just got back a little while ago from getting my hair permed. It feels so good. It looks shorter now from the perm, but it will grow. How has your day been? Mine has been slow.Didn't go and see Trey today as I had things to do. He has a doctor appoinment tomorrow after he gets a x-ray done on his leg. I'm hoping everything looks okay. He will have surgery on the 29th to get that fixator taken off of his leg. And of course I will be there to support his wife while he is in surgery. Not much else going on. Take care and enjoy the rest of your day. Hugs, Cheryl
