After 2 cups of coffee and pumpkin bread, I have read comments and emails. We are 92° at 10:15 am. I have used nose spray and essential oils because I can't breathe. I have used creams, gels, and sprays on my 6 itching mosquito bites. I am trying to get energized for the day.
That is when I realize that it is Wednesday. What? The plants in the front yard have been watered by Hubby and the chickens have been checked on already. We get 5 eggs a day; have 10 and should have 5 more later today. There is NOTHING as good as fresh eggs.
As I look at your name, I pray that you will have a blessed day full of beautiful colors! Please share your smile with others as you never know who needs it the most! You might just add some sparkle to their day.
Good Afternoon! We are going to start with beautiful colors and a beautiful scene. Our day started just after 3am with dogs shrill barking. So I get up to see what they are after and immediately come back in to get Rbt up. They had a large possum about the size of Reba. Back to sleep after that was taken care of by Hubby. Then about 8am he goes next door to repair the hose with a splicer so we can still give the chickens water.Around 10am it was time for him to brush the dogs when he discovered Carly had a BIG rat. He gets that away from her and the dogs are still after something... 5 or 6 baby rats. Carly and Reba are a deadly team. J Lo is the cheerleader and Kitty can't hear anymore but she can sure smell danger.
J Lo, Carly Simon, Miss Kitty Wells, & Reba McEntire. The reason we are babysitting the chickens is because our neighbors are in East Texas at Jellystone Park on vacation. Today Olivia Jade is one year old. Isn't she adorable! So they are all on vacation for a few days enjoying the summer time fishing, especially big brother Bennett.
I hope you are enjoying your summer and find time for a vacation with family and friends.
Hope you had a wonderful weekend as it is the start of another new week. Do you have any plans?
If you started with a great breakfast you are on the right track. I am still drinking coffee. Hubby is watering plants and crispy grass in the front.
My girls are in the Mexico City area for a couple of weeks visiting their other Grandma. Yesterday they went to a bookstore and bought some books.
Have you seen a bookstore like this? It has an upstairs too. What a big, beautiful place with tons of books! I guess I just don't get out to shop enough anymore.
And they have already been to Six Flags Mexico with their friends. So glad they are having a wonderful summer vacation. I hope you are enjoying your summer too. I miss hearing from you and sure hope you are ok.
Is there any possibility that August will be cooler? We watered plants and then went to Costco, had lunch, and bought groceries. It is just stupid hot!
However, please let me explain. I am NOT in any way wishing for winter. But those of you that like it... enjoy the picture above.
Now if anybody, anywhere has seen the rain, PLEASE send it my way. We are already over 12" below normal and with these hot temperatures our grass is dying and large cracks are appearing in the yard and around the foundations.
Yes, it is July and summertime in the ole town the next 10 days in a row and that is NOT the feel like temperatures. I am having a hard time keeping my plants from wilting. Can you say, "HOT"???
We have had fireworks over our house for 3 nights in a row now. The first two nights were short lived, but last night started at 8 pm as I was watering plants in the back at 95°. At 10 pm we were still 90° and the mosquitos were terrible. Neighbors on both sides of us were shooting off fireworks over our house. Yes, I have videos!
I hope you are celebrating and having a fun day with family and eating delicious food. I will be celebrating on Tuesday and Wednesday by working so I will check in when I have a minute or two.
I will also be wearing my new Red, White, and Blue scarfs that a sweet friend sent to me to work to celebrate with my new nails. I will be sharing lots of smiles too!
GOOD MORNING, LOVE, HUGS & BLESSINGS, Ms. Lorri, I pray YOU have a MAGICALLY MEANINGFUL MONDAY/4TH of JULY, and have a MAJESTIC WEEK to follow, my friend...
