It's a beautiful day and high in high 70's. Perfect in my world! Swimming again today and just other odds and ends to get done. Have a wonderful day - enjoying summer while it lasts : ) Blessings, Nancy
Wishing you a beautiful day. Have been busy for sure. But over all it is as good of a weekend as it could be. I hope yours was great and your week a head will be filled with only good things. Connie
I survived the hot weekend, lol 2 cool showers a day & staying in air-conditioning, as much as possible, seemed to do the trick... Luckily we're supposed to have a much cooler week :)
HAVE A WONDERFUL WEEKEND GOD BLESS YOU. WE ARE HAVING RAIN RIGHT NOW. TODAY WAS SUPPOSE TO BE A REALLY HOT DAY. I THINK WE ARE GOING TO COOL DOWN NOW AFTER THIS RAIN. THANK GOD IT WASN'T A STORM. I WAS SO AFRAID THAT WE WOULD LOSE POWER. THANK GOD WE DIDN'T. HEARING A FEW RUMBLES SO IT ISN'T OVER YET. WE HAVE BEEN SO HOT THIS WEEK IN THE UPPER 90'S THAT HAVING A FEW UPPER 80 DAY WILL SURE BE NICE. THE HUMIDITY HAS BEEN SO HIGH. YOU SHOULD COULDN'T STAND TO GO OUTSIDE. TAKE CARE,HOPE YOU WEATHER IS GOOD. LOVE, SHIRLEY XOOXXO
Well,the county fair is winding down today with the livestock sale. Only heard of three chickens dying in this heat so hopefully all the other animals survived. My grandson will sell his chickens around noon. So glad this hot week is about over! Making food today for family reunion tomorrow. Thankful we will be in AC! If it's sweltering in your neck of the woods, keep cool; for those in the cold of winter, keep safe and warm! Blessings, Nancy
Thank you so much for the awesome comments. I appreciate them all. It has been since Thanksgiving that I have been able to get here to send any back to you all. I am going through them all & reading them all. (still working on it) It was a quiet weather Winter. I did not start up the snow-blower once... not a single time. And, here in mid NH we had only 1 night below 0*, just 10* below for a couple hours. That is freaky warm & freaky snowless. But, of coarse we had a huge El Nino in the Pacific Ocean all winter, so, it was what I was expecting. I have been cranking, repairing & painting, for my business. I am finally in a quiet time... little work & great weather. Sooooo, I had a right eye cataract replaced. I was seeing nothing out of that eye. People kept saying, “Man, your left eye must be really tired.” Hahahahah, Actually the right eye was the one tired, from working so hard to TRY to see. So, I was done my 4 week daily regimen of eye drops yesterday. Dr., happy I am healing faster than expected, & last Dr. visit is Tuesday, 23rd.
I am working hard to get my veggie garden completely in. I have been experimenting with containers the past couple years. This year I am totally container: carrots, beets, parsnips, onions, leeks, red cabbage, eggplant, summer yellow squash (don't like zucchini, no zucchini) butternut squash, pumpkin (to eat), lots of red potato, and two variety of rare heirloom tomato, several herbs. I grow some herbs year round in the kitchen window. I have all of the “from-seed” crops in, I just need to get the already started, squashes & some herb plants, into the big growing pots. And I have to make 4 window boxes 4' x 8” each (PVC trim board) , so I can put my flowers in. I winter over a lot of flowering & foliage plants. Then a friend of mine & I have to put on a new roof on my 26' x 34' Cape. Just one side. The other side is new Architectural shakes. Then I have to replace clapboard on the front peak side, along with some trim, brick molding & window sills (PVC trim Board no more rotable wood). The clapboard is to be fiberglass reinforced concrete, (“Hardie Board”). & if I have enough time a new 8' x 8' deck. The one there now is 4' x 4',& fell off the house & is shored up with a gallon drywall bucket under 1 corner. I'm putting a floating one (not attached to the house) on concrete feet, so I don't have to bother with town permits & it can't be taxed either. So... I hope you all are doing well & enjoying a great Summer. I am going to try to get here more often, because I love hearing from you all.
You have a nice evening and yes its very hot up here in Vermont 100 today You take care in this heat Hugs Lynnie
