We had to run to town today to Ace Hardware for some bolts. Hubby is replacing fence pickets on a gate he built 15 or more years ago. So naturally we stopped on the way home for TACOS. Now that our grazing is over, it is on to other things.
Did you say it was August? We started at 69 this morning and are only at 84 now. Yes, we will be near 100 this Saturday and Sunday but for August today is unthinkable weather as you can tell by my expression!
Tomorrow I get to drive in traffic to take Hubby to get Laser surgery on his left eye. We are hoping it will clear up some of his blurry vision. Dallas traffic is always a flip of the coin as to how long it takes to get there.
So I will send you Blessings and Hugs for now and be back soon. Share that smile and I will share mine.
Sure hope you had a great vacation Deb. I know what you mean about needing a vacation from your vacation.. Lots of chores to be done when you get home and catch up on everrything from washinng clothes to sorting the mail. It's been overcast today with a high of 76 and going down to 69 tonite - no need for the AC to run. Expecting more rain later this evening and for the rest of the week - something we really don't need. Relax and take it easy - no rush since you're home . Have a good rest of the day and week. Hugs, Wendy
May your day bring calmmess to you and give you such joy within your heart as you do your daily duties. For me at the moment I am having a spot of flavored neapolitan from Good&Gather. It has a chocolate, vanilla and strawberry flavor.
May you enjoy your Aug summer day. My thoughts are thinking of the fall season as one sees corn on the cob for sale. Do have a glorious day! Smiles Gloria
Here we are in August already and I don't even know where the last few days have gone. I got the yard mowed Sunday afternoon. We got 8/10" rain Sunday during the night. I also got fresh Hummingbird food put out in all 3 feeders.
The flowers, bugs, birds, grass, everything is so happy today. This weekend we will be back to near 100 but we are grateful to God for all his blessings.
Don't forget to share your smile today. Now off to vacuum and mop this dirty house. Feel free to come over and help as you are always welcome here.
It has been a busy day and someone is napping. Hubby had a chiropractic appointment early. Then we went about 20 miles to Herb Mart to buy a bunch of NAC (being pushed out by Big Pharma) and on over another 10 miles to the Pond & Pump shop. Back in Rockwall, we went to Lowe's for fence pickets. Even stopped at Schlotzsky's drive thru before we made it home.
Don't know how I got on the cat theme... but might as well run with it. We visited on the phone with our friends in Lubbock over projects we both have going and how tired we all are today. They had their garage floor refinished last year and are now getting their back patio areas done today.
The surface is not slippery and is going to look awesome around the koi fish pond and the covered area where they eat which is a big patio off of their shop. They are having 20-30 people over for a class reunion pre gathering party outside next weekend (very small graduating class many years ago).
Ok, by the time I get this posted, the weekend has started! So nap time is over and I missed it. Hope you get to relax or get to go out and have some fun for the weekend.
Good Morning or Afternoon now! I have come into the computer room 4 times to start this message to YOU! I have also been outside 3 times to water wilted plants. Finally it is finished. It is so hot that I have to stop and come in to cool. How many days until Fall or Autumn? I know we are due a cool front and rain in a few days but everything may have melted by then.
In the meantime, what is there to do? I still don't have my hummingbird water bath made. I'm not even sure if they have food or if they are even in the area now because of the heat as it is not fun sitting on the patio to watch for them. But I'll try...
So, what are you doing to survive this day? You know the weekend is getting very close and I hope you have something planned. If you have a list, I hope you get something crossed off it.
Now what is for lunch? Oh, we are both too hot to eat. Guess I had better help hubby finish his project in the garage. He took down shelves and he is putting up a wire storage organizer on wheels.
That is kind of what we are doing with hubby's eye glasses doctor. We just dropped off our third prescription at the Optical Laboratory for new glasses. And next Wednesday, hubby will have laser surgery to remove a buildup on the implant in his left eye. We just keep taking another shot at getting glasses that he doesn't see double (Prism in glasses) and blurry and ... try again.
I was afraid he had gotten too hot yesterday when he was replacing and rewiring the septic water pump by braille. He has such a hard time seeing details like wires going together now. He is my SuperMan!
I am off to see what plants are wilted and in need of some water to perk up. Our temperature is only 96 but it feels like 107 right now. Sure hope you are cooler than that!
The heat is here and it seems it's not going anywhere for awhile! Today it's going to be 98 degrees feeling like 103-104 needless to say I'm homebound until this heat wave passes! I hope you have a good day and better weather!
A glorious Wed. day to you as you enjoy your special day doing this and that today. This will be our last 90 plus temp day and I am most happy about it. Blessed to have a breeze also so that helps the day to not be as warm.
I believe this is a nice day to head over to our friendly library and check out the DVD's and books. May your day be ever so kind to you. Smiles Gloria
Here we are on a Taco Tuesday afternoon! The front, sides and back are hand watered. I was dripping so much you would have thought I got watered. So shower is completed and my nails will soon to be a different ColorStreet color.
Hubby goes back to the eye glasses doctor tomorrow. So I'm not sure what time I will be here. I always enjoy reading your comments and looking around your page and I do hope you enjoy your visit to my page.
Come back again soon. Please share your smile and make someone smile back at you!
