Wow Cheryl - a new dryer - that was nice of your hubby to get a new dryer - a real nice surprse for you. Hope you did some wash today after it was delivered so you could try it out! Speaking of dryers, I still have towels in mine from yesterday. We went to Costco's today with Richie's brother - he wanted to go so we went with him. He joined but we didn't. We are members of Sam's and didn't see too much difference between the two and they didn't carry cream of chicken soup and we like the kind of coffee we get from Sam's anyway - plus it's further to go! It was 89 but felt like 99 - needless to say I wasn't out in it at all. Have a good evening and sleep well. Hugs, Wendy
The front and back yards have been water; groceries purchased and put away; Taco Salads from Rosa's have been eaten; and dogs brushed. I feel a nap coming on. We have company coming tomorrow which means vacuuming, moping, bathrooms cleaned and a million other chores. If it wasn't so hot outside, when they get here, we could just sit and enjoy the sunset. Can't wait for the laughter and love to begin but until then, I hope you already have your chores done and...
It was only 88 today but had a thunderstorm later in the afternoon. Went to breakfast with Richie's brother again this morning. I'm not used to eating breakfast especially so short a time that I've been up. But it was a nice time and I got over my sugar rush! Later in the afternoon we went to Big Lots so I could buy some more washclothes. Rich also found a new griddle pan. Ours still is ok but is getting scratched up a bit Also found an inexpensive wind chime. Put clean food inthe hummer feeder and did a load of towels. They need to go in the dryer - I totally forgot about them. Also got a birthday card ready to mail for my son's birthdya which was two weeks ago. I didn't forget - I just have been lazy abotu getting it in the mail - but he should get it by the end of the week. Have a good new week and I hope the month of August will be knds to you. Hugs, Wendy
Hi Cheryl - it was a realy ice day here - plenty of sunshine and no rain - 87 for a high. I was inside and didn't do alot until I started dinner around 3. Found a roast the other day in the freezer and cooked it today along with onions and carrots. Made gravy with the juices - this has been my favorite tasting dinner since I was young and it still tastes the same. Had it with mashed potatoes and corn on the cob that a friend gave us. Now sitting here feeling fat and sassy. Hope your day went well and your weekend will be sunny and bright.
So just what are you doing this weekend? Do you have any fun plans?
I hope you make time to laugh with friends or family. Laughter, helping, kindness and love is what makes the Blessings of life. Don't you agree?
We all need to make time to help others. Sometimes it is doing something good for them. Sharing your smiles helps make others wonder if you are up to no good or just helps to put a smile on their face too.
You might even speak to a stranger, just say "Hello" and make them feel noticed, alive and important. Being kind to someone might also make them smile. You could take a drive in the evening to watch the stars come out. Whatever you do, share your Blessings with others every day.
What is up with this? Someone in Texas has been very, very bad. I sure hope it isn't me! Everyone is getting rain but Texas!
This is what it will probably look like WHEN we do get rain! I am not sure where this picture was taken and although it is beautiful, it is scary at the same time.
I know it is all in God's perfect timing. I also know we have had hot times like this before. Can you imagine what the settlers went through with no air conditioning? I am thankful for A/C and many other blessings, like it's Friday and I am sharing blessings with you!
Good afternoon my friend. Its cooler here today 82* but the humidity is high and we have had a few rain showers. Don't care for the humidity but will definitely take the rain. We need more than just a few sprinkles. Yesterday was just another hot day here. We didn't have any water since the city was working on the water tower in town. So I didn't get any housework done because of that. They finally got that turned back on around 9:30 last night. To late to do any housework then so I'm getting everything caught up today. Just have everything done but the clothes in the dryer will need folded and put away when it gets done. Enough of my chit chat for now. Take care. Hugs, Cheryl
Hope,your day is a good,one,we got some rains. Cloudy on and off and sunny on and off, very odd day, winds too, been working in the gardens and swimming,
My this week is flying by as I am enjoying my moments doing this and that during these summer days. Hope your days are being ever so nice to you as you do your daily duties. Another cool day bring fall into my mind . Found the other day pumpkin jam. Now that sounds interesting for I so do like apple butter jam. Just might give it a try. In the mean time I do believe I need to fill up my coffee cup with some toasted coconut flavored coffee . Smiles Gloria

Good Thursday Morning! Sending Blessings upon Blessings to you and your family and loved ones today and everyday.
Do you think coffee is additive? I love making it because the smell of ground coffee is to me the best part.
I do know that if you drink too much coffee, tea, soda, or anything with caffeine in it when you quit you will have a massive headache. Looks like the person who posted that already knows that. hehehe
Thanks for the therapy, for listening, and for being such a priceless friend to me.
It was 92 today and we got another rain - this time a thunderstorm. Stayed inside except for a short time this afternoon when I picked a few weeds. Was inside all the rest of the day doing nothing but being on the phone trying to get my neice and her family a vacation in Fla. She was supposed to call me back after she talked to her hubby, but it doesn't look like she's gonna do that tonitevand I don't want to bug her by calling tomorrow. So how was your Wednesday Cheryl? I'm sure you were hotter than we were! Have a good nite and a good Thursday.
The lawn had its hair cut yesterday and for today is laundry and dusting day.
We are at 62 for the temp this morning and just might get to 70. Loving these cooler days while it lasts. Have a glorious day what ever you plan to do. For me my plan is to get my household duties done and then sit back and have another cup of one of many favorite flavored coffees I enjoy, while finding another piece to the puzzle. Smiles Gloria
