Hey Pal, glad the new floor turned out good for you and yes, you'll get used to the new texture I'm sure. Been hot as firecracker here and you can see everything drooping from it in the garden, etc. We did get a nice rain and thundershower yesterday and it was wonderful. It dropped the temp by 20 degrees probably. I caught some of the rain water in a bucket to save for later. Got some zuchinni at the store yesterday and some blueberries. Made a big veggie pasta salad after I got home from church yesterday and chilled it for a late lunch. How did you blueberry jello pie turn out? Have a good holiday!
Happy Monday! Do you have family or friends around for the holiday weekend?
I have a friend on a cruise out of Galveston. Beautiful picture in the Gulf of Mexico on their first evening aboard.
My son called Saturday night on FaceTime. The whole family ran a 3K at Texas Motor Speedway and then went to the Foam Party. I took pictures while we were on FT. This is Michelle asking me to take a picture. They had so much fun.
This is a picture I took the morning of July 1st. I hope it is still this pretty by the 5th or 6th after everyone in our neighborhood has shot off millions of $ in fireworks. From 10 to midnight Saturday night, on and off were lots of BOOMS. Our dogs were not happy. Last night there were some but not too many going off.
I did get a video from my family in Bowie, Texas. They had friends and family over to watch from their yard since about 3 different places near them shot off fireworks all around the lake. Just 2 more nights to go.
Sunday... July... Summer... Vacation... I hope you are enjoying all of these even the hot and dry days ahead.
Whatever you do this summer, make memories with others. Then you will both always have them to share.
Remember that doesn't just apply to couples but to friends too. I am blessed to have friends with totally different opinions than mine. It makes us both stop and think.
If you Love him, this applies here too. And it too, is also meant for friends. After all, love is what it is all about.
Friday afternoon and the weekend traffic has already started. The lines to check in at the airport were very long as shown on TV early this morning.
We both smiled this morning and visited with everyone we encountered as we were going from store to store checking things off our lists.
My question is... who let the sunshine in? This summertime heat is a killer. Just getting the eggs from next door and putting out fresh water for the chickens had us dripping with sweat.
Long Story... I will shorten it. Kelly hired a Senior BOA from another Edward Jones location. She has been there 7 years and wants to be closer to where she lives. She wanted to start July 17th, however, the FA, financial advisor, she is working for is having a new baby and wants to take 6 weeks of paternal leave. So she is not transferring until August 16th. I am there for another 6 weeks. I am off for 5 days, Friday-July 4th and go back Wednesday. I will probably work M-F the next 2 weeks because Kelly is on vacation. Then 3 weeks of about 3 days a week before the new girl takes over.
This will be such a BLESSING for KELLY to have someone that is already trained and can just walk in, take over, and help Kelly build her business. God is Good and He always has a PLAN.
Oh my, its a humid afternoon here. Its only 84 but feels a lot warmer than that. Its cloudy with a chance of thunderstorms later today. Hopefully we won't get anything like last time. More wind than rain. I hope you are having a good Friday afternoon. I'm late getting on here as I went to a Thrift store at noon today, then when I got home I had to go to the pharmacy and pick up a prescription. Time seems to fly by in the mornings but drag by after it hits 3 pm. Well have a good weekend my friend. Hope it isn't to hot there. Take care, hugs, Cheryl
Hello Pal, another scorcher here. Hubby is outside cleaning the deck off and spraying wasp nests. One was inside yesterday when we got home and it stung me. They are squeezing in around the window pane or coming in the door when it's open I guess. Anyway, I put ice on the sting quickly and it wasnt' too bad as far at the pain or swelling. I'm reorganizing some of my plants on the deck and cleaning out some. What a mess. Meant to ask how did the new floor or the repair turn out? Hope your hoiday weekend is good! I'll be in the AC as much as possible. huggies, Beth
That's good news you don't have to go back for a year, Wendy. Weather on this side of the pond is cool and rainy today. Last week, it was hot and humid. Pleasant and serene weekend to you! Hugs
