May your day be ever so nice to you as you do your daily duties of the day and take some time off to enjoy the moments of the day with a fresh cup of coffee and or tea. We are having very cool temps this week so a nice hot cup of coffee sounds delicious to me right at the moment. Smiles Gloria

Good afternoon to you. I hope you are having a nice afternoon. Its a cloudy and cool day here today. A cool front came through last night and have made the day very nice, except we have a chance for thunderstorms later today and into tonight. Hopefully they won't be bad. Had a nice time last night and the family get together at my sister in law's house. Got to watch the kids and some grown ups pop fireworks. Just tired today from staying up late. Didn't get to bed until 11:15 last night and I am usually in bed by 9:30. I have already had a nap and feel refreshed.Enjoy the rest of your afternoon and evening my friend. Take care. Hugs, Cheryl
The 4th of July is finally here. Firework sales have been very, very good this year.
Every night the sky around our house has been lit up. And there have been lots of cities that have had celebrations on different nights.
There are flags flying everywhere. The Rotary Club in Rockwall puts flags out and takes them up on every holiday for those that pay to have a flag in their yard or subdivision.
There are parades and parties going on everywhere too. Some pets don't seem to mind the loud noise and fireworks or even dressing up.
Wherever you are, I hope you ate lots of good food and had fun with others! The party is almost over! Now it is almost time for me to get ready for work again.
But I will probably be wearing red, white, and blue the rest of the week. Happy 4th of July on this wonderful Independence Day!
How's it going Anne? Hope you had a good weekend. Our was nice - the same as usual. Will be going to a bbq at friends. Don't know how many people will be there but it'll be fine no matter what. Was 95 today untill we got a thunderstorm around 3 that cooled things off by 20 degrees but will be hot again tomorrow. Think I'll probably be inside most of the day. Don't know if you are getting these messages or not or just can't reply. Hope you are ok - wish you could word to me. Have a wonderful Tuesday. Hugs, Wendy
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.
Hello July! Had a busy day starting out putting the flage out along the driveway and around the house. Had to run to DG to pick up a pie shell for dessert for tomorrow nite as I'm cooking. Then made a new chicken dinner, squash and corn on the cob. Just now getting to sit down and do comments on Noth. Hugs, Wendy
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.
