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.
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.
Oh my, its a humid afternoon here. Its only 84 but feels a lot warmer than that. Its cloudy with a chance of thunderstorms later today. Hopefully we won't get anything like last time. More wind than rain. I hope you are having a good Friday afternoon. I'm late getting on here as I went to a Thrift store at noon today, then when I got home I had to go to the pharmacy and pick up a prescription. Time seems to fly by in the mornings but drag by after it hits 3 pm. Well have a good weekend my friend. Hope it isn't to hot there. Take care, hugs, Cheryl
Good afternoon to you. I hope it isn't to hot where you live. Its a warm afternoon here. Its 91* here but feels hotter than that. Not much going on here. Just wanted to drop in and say Hi. Hope you are doing good. Take care my friend. Many hugs too you, Cheryl.
Good afternoon to you my friend. Its a hot 90* here and humid from the storm we had last night. It was a very very windy storm. Had some rain with it but now we have tree limbs to cut down that are laying on the ground. I don't know how high the wind was but it was awful. Now the sun is shining and its hot. Not much else going on. I took some pictures of the tree branches, I need to post them on here. Well take care my friend and enjoy your afternoon. Oh, and we were with out electricity until 8:30 this morning. Was kind of a warm night without any fans running. Many hugs to you. Cheryl
Good Morning Wednesday! My day off and I will be outside watering plants this morning.
I saw this picture and what memories it brought back of just over 20 years ago when we lived in South Texas. I had a 3' tub planter of Bird of Paradise with lots of blooms that I left behind when we moved.
What? You left a plant behind? Yes, I knew it would not survive in this colder weather. It still breaks my heart.
Now before that Texas sun beats down on us again today, I really need to water the plants I do have growing and wilting daily.
After all, they are all lined up waiting for a refreshing drink this morning. Then there is the grocery list that is waiting too.
Seems like everyone in this house wants to be fed... dogs and humans alike.
