Just finished the 2nd book in the Three Rivers Ranch Romance Box set of 3 by Liz Isaacson. Miss Kitty Wells, our Papillon, got groomed today and the other 3 got their nails trimmed.
So you would think that everyone was all dressed up and ready to go out. Guess what?!? They are all taking a nap. Sometimes this is the most exciting place to be... or not.
I guess that is what happens after a delicious meal. OK, I sort of cooked. I made pancakes and pan sausage for our meal of the day around 12:30. Don't laugh and don't look so shocked!
For the past week, every time we have seen an iHop commercial, we have talked about how they don't taste as good there as the ad makes them look on TV. Well, mine tasted better than iHop!
You are such a good friend. I really appreciate you not laughing out loud at me even with my new haircut.
Another Friday is already here. I did finally get a haircut yesterday from a new stylist. She took her time and it felt like I was being pampered.
So here I am trying to see what you have been up to this week as the month of August comes to a close. I know that next month the temperatures should cool slightly in Texas and I am ready. We are also going to spray for mosquitos because when I go out in the early evening to water, I get lots of bites.
Guess which fairy looks most like me. Hint, there is no gray hair showing on my head at the moment. OK, guess which fairy I think of as looking most like me. Where did the years go?
So now I am going to wish you a Blessed weekend and ask that you remember to share your smile with everyone you encounter.
We have another beautiful day. Should be only 99 and normally we don't hit 100 after about this date.
I made hummingbird food yesterday. Today I have to bring in the feeders to clean and refill them. Don't want the hummingbirds to think there is no more food as the feeders are almost completely empty.
I will soon have a crop of butterflies. This caterpillar only feeds on the Passion Vine plant. Here is what it will look like.
I also have bumblebees that are hungry. This one looks like it hasn't missed a meal in a long time.
Yes, my yard is a zoo with birds of all kinds and sizes, hummingbirds of several varieties, butterflies of different colors that are hard to video, squirrels, frogs, crayfish, wasps, flies, grasshoppers, ants, fire ants, mosquitos, caterpillars, and lots of other hungry critters.
And the weather will start to cool off a bit in the next 3 months or so, hehehe! But you are always invited to come over and sit on the patio and watch all the activity. However, I do have quite a few (ok, a whole bunch) of bites on my legs and arms from mosquitos.
Left house at 9:30 this morning and it was 1 pm before I got back with groceries. Whew! What fun is shopping. Do you enjoy it. I used to love it and I guess I really did enjoy it but I was sweating by the time I got home and most everything put up.
Then it was time for lunch and some computer fun. I hope I don't even have to go out to water plants because it is just too hot. Is it hot where you are?
Just so you know, when I was out and about shopping at WalMart and Costco and whatever else I shopped, I was smiling and trying to be nice to everyone. As soon as I get off the Hill, I am going to read my kindle because I have a great Christian series by Liz Isaacson that I am enjoying! I Can't wait to find out what you have been doing.
With fall in the air and back to cooler days and nights I just had to brew up some New England Coffee flavored caramel apple to brighten up ones day even more than it is now.
May you have a nice Monday sharing your smile . Smiles Gloria
Its a hot Friday afternoon here. Its 95 and feels like 97. I can sure do without the humidity. I'm busy with the laundry and I have dishes to do but waiting for the chicken to get done in the oven before I do all my dishes. I'm making chicken tenders wrapped in turkey bacon and rolled in brown sugar. It is really good. The smell is making me hungry. Well have a good afternoon and stay cool. Take care, Cheryl
I know you and your family sure enjoyed those chicken tenders wrapped in turkey bacon. That sounds so good. Hope you had a nice weekend and we sure all need a break from the heat that is for sure. Big hugs, Jackie
Just came in from being on patrol outside and can't take another step!
Always on patrol inside.
So, after 3 hours of sermons on TV. What are you doing on this Blessed Sunday? I go to the computer room and visit with friends who make me smile! Thanks for sharing your smile!
Hi Cheryl: I did my washing today too. Good to be indoors as it's muggy hot outside. Hope you are having a good Saturday. Stay safe, stay cool, stay sane. Hugs, Anne
Where oh where did this week go? And in just 10 more days the month will be over! What the heck have I been doing all month and what did I get accomplished?
All I really know is that I have NOT missed a meal. OK, the other thing I know is that the hot temperatures are back! Our dew point has been 76-79 all week. Who was it that said our humidity probably isn't as bad here (DFW) as it is where they live?
Let the weekend begin. Tell me, do you have plans? My plans are to survive all this stuff going on right now. So the party is at our house. Come on over. But don't forget to bring your smile.
(((HUGS)))
