It is so HOT that fake plants are the only thing that might be alive right now. If you walk on the grass next to the driveways, it just CRUNCHES under your feet. There is no green anywhere.
Our friends have flown the coop. Ok, they are driving back to Lubbock. Just say a prayer that the doctors find out the cause of her balance problems. She just wants a solution so she doesn't end up not being able to walk.
They drove off and I just collapsed on Hubby's shoulder. I cried for a while. I already miss them so much. I used to do that everytime my son drove away. But we will see them again... until then our love will continue to grow!
Well, all 7 tests were done and they also talked to the surgeon. He is not 100% sure of the problem and doesn't want to do surgery and have her wake up and tell her that wasn't the problem. Woo Hoo for him! So they are staying another night as she has a balance test this afternoon.
As you can tell, I am excited that they are staying another night. I had so much fun yesterday with all 6 dogs. Pink is so well mannered, she won't come in or go out the door until she is given permission. Our dogs run over you!
So I am heading off now to spend more precious time with them this Friday before she has her balance therapy. Have a Blessed day and a great start to the weekend.
After 2 bowls of Chicken & Dumplings each, we are all four very full. Then had a light dinner with maybe another bowl for at least one guest.
Before dumplings and after dumplings were added. Now this pot is at least half empty! Then came the laughter to help settle the full tummies.
They have a small dog, like our 4, and this magnificent standard Poodle, named Pink. Carly and Pink played and played and played. Everyone gets along except for eating each other's dog food. We are blessed by our best friends of almost 50 years.
Our friends have left Lubbock and are well on their way. So excited! We have been friends for close to 50 years.
There will be LOTS of laughter going on and NO suppressing it! Can't afford any more spread to hips! So now I am off to clean bathrooms! I know you are jealous! Sending Blessings & Hugs because well...
The front and back yards have been water; groceries purchased and put away; Taco Salads from Rosa's have been eaten; and dogs brushed. I feel a nap coming on. We have company coming tomorrow which means vacuuming, moping, bathrooms cleaned and a million other chores. If it wasn't so hot outside, when they get here, we could just sit and enjoy the sunset. Can't wait for the laughter and love to begin but until then, I hope you already have your chores done and...
Can you believe that some schools in the DFW area are starting today? My girls start on the 10th. Most all schools are starting a couple of weeks early because of time they missed during the Pandemic.
Even as hot and as dry as we are this year, I would rather have summer than a freezing winter. Which one do you prefer?
This was the Dallas area yesterday evening. And once again we did not get a drop. So near and yet so far; all around us. But one day soon, it will be our turn.
What is up with this? Someone in Texas has been very, very bad. I sure hope it isn't me! Everyone is getting rain but Texas!
This is what it will probably look like WHEN we do get rain! I am not sure where this picture was taken and although it is beautiful, it is scary at the same time.
I know it is all in God's perfect timing. I also know we have hot times like this before. Can you imagine what the settlers went through with no air conditioning? I am thankful for A/C and many other blessings, like it's Friday and I am sharing blessings with you!
Good Thursday Morning! Sending Blessings upon Blessings to you and your family and loved ones today and everyday.
Do you think coffee is additive? I love making it because the smell of ground coffee is to me the best part.
I do know that if you drink too much coffee, tea, soda, or anything with caffeine in it when you quit you will have a massive headache. Looks like the person who posted that already knows that. hehehe
Thanks for the therapy, for listening, and for being such a priceless friend to me.
Music Monday! Do you like music? Do you listen to it? Do you dance?
I love Oldies and older Country music and we listen to SiriusXM quite a bit. My girls both like Choir in school. We used to dance all the time but since Hubby's hip surgeries we do not go dancing anymore.
But music will always be one of the keys to my heart. Even though I can't really sing, remember the words or play an instrument. What do you play?
I have videos from when my granddaughters were very young playing all sorts of instruments, horns, drums, etc. Actually, Michelle is now taking virtual guitar lessons from Mexico every week.
Now, if I can just keep my plants alive, I will be happy. I need to turn on the music outside and water them. Monday Blessings to you!
I am all dressed up for a trip to town on Saturday. Are you going anywhere today? Have any fun plans?
Since we only have 4 dogs, what do you think about getting a new pet? I would like to put netting over the back yard and just let it fly free!
Nothing would be more fun than going dancing this evening. Do you like to dance? We love listening to SiriusXM, 50's Gold, Oldies, and of course lots of Classic old Country Music.
Aren't dreams nice? I guess I will just play in the garden! I sure hope I make you happy as I love being a gardener!
