Howdy-do Lovely Early Bird People 🐦 What a morning, gorgeous weather; however … Washed sheets, refilled 2 weeks of vitamin boxes, dropped off a ton of recycling, got home and knocked a half gallon of water all over the floor. The mop got some of the water, but there was so much of it, i needed an entire roll of Bounty. I was so sweaty, had to pop in the shower as soon as i cooled down with a prescription-strength Advil — not good. 😟 i was going to scramble some eggs and pour Chuck’s green chili over them —… Read more »

Good Morning! Cloudy and 63 with rain expected today and a high of 74. After being so dry and in severe drought conditions we’ve had welcome rain over the past two days. So far we have gotten 2″ in our rain gauge and every drop is appreciated. A handsome male Cardinal and then a lovely female Cardinal appeared briefly on the planters outside of the dining room window while I was typing my comments ❤️ Craig’s school had graduation yesterday and since parking is at a premium the IT Dept. (plus some others)!was instructed to work from home to free… Read more »

Hi Kathy,
So good to see your post, you have been missed my friend. 💕
Such a relief you have had some much needed rain.
That worked out very well for Craig to work from home and be able to get outside also to do some weeding and planting. 😊
Miss Chai looks like she is touching the screen. 😃

Good morning I had a lunch date with my friend Jakki yesterday. We met at Sauce and we both ordered pizza’s. I had pepperoni and cremini mushrooms. They no longer sell the rosemary potato pizza. They had it on the menu for 30 years and took it off 6 months ago as the kid said it wasnt a big seller. I wonder why they kept it on the menu so many years? I heard back from the pantsuit CO. They dont want to seem to big on refunded money so I wasnt happy with $13 back so they will give… Read more »
Hi Ardy
I’m so sorry about the loss of the lady from your church 💔
Thank you, She was VERY well known and liked.
I would talk to her every Sunday on my way out since she sat in the back of the church in her wheel chair.
Hugs 🫂
Yesterdays lunch
Hi Ardy,😘
Pizza is a great choice.😘 Too bad they no longer have the potato pizza, would you have ordered that?
Maybe you will want to wear the outfit, I liked it on you. 😀
Good morning, Yesterday was beautiful, sunny and warmed up in the afternoon. I enjoyed being outside for most of the afternoon. Jay, the contractor who is going to do our addition has not gotten back to us all this past week. He was going to redo the contract that has to meet the code enforcement officers guidelines but we have not heard yet. It was supposed to start May 18th so hoping we hear soon. I am surprised he is keeping us in the dark since he was on top of it getting us the shed and stopping by to… Read more »
Hi Jenn
I hope you hear from Jay very soon!
How cute of Danny showing y’all his ‘Greenie’ dental bone 😄
Thank you Kathy, Jay is a trustworthy guy, I’m sure he is trying to work in a lot of projects this busy time of year.
Still keeping in touch with customers is important.
Danny loves his Greenies.😀
Will Denny call Jay?
Cute pic of Danny. That a big greenie.
It is big, for large dogs. He has a mighty appetite he is between 85-90 lbs. !
Denny emailed him last Monday and reminding him we want the same pine boards on the inside as we have in the cabin. Jay wrote back and thanked him for the reminder and that was the last of it. We know he is busy but Denny will contact him soon if he doesn’t get to us.
Good Saturday morning.
A bit of cloud about but beginning to feel very warm again.
A high of 77F today but vMonday and Tuesday the weather App is showing temp of 90F for the two days
That I will be complaining about.lol.
I do hope they have that wrong it is the rain we so need now.
Paper in hand Traffic very quiet this morning probably all gone to the coast.
Coffee and sticks now so will see you all in a while.😀😘
Good morning Ice,
Oh no 90 degrees is very HOT, you will needs some fans running I think. Yikes!🥵
Is there a direct highway to the coast and is it near where you live?
Hi Jenn.
I do hope we do not hit that temp.
I live about 60 miles away from the nearest coastal resort.
Fan at the ready but it does say for just the two days at that temp.
Then the following days it gradually gets back to the 70F range just right for us.😀😘
We had that last week Ice, we had 2 very hot high 80’s even hit 90 degrees but then it went down to 40’s at night and has been 60’s during the day. I like that better than high 80’s – 90! Perfect weather is mid-70’s for me. 😍
You have a good distance from you and the beach to be bothered with that heavy traffic!
Hi Ice
I understand the need for rain. We’re finally getting some this weekend but we’ll probably still be in drought conditions.
Hi Kathy.
Pleased you had some rain, we really need a good down pour now ground beginning to crack up.😘
Morning Ice
You said you wouldnt complain…..lol It is hard not to.
Hi Ardy,
If it lasts just two days I just might not complain.
How you stick temps like this I will never understand.lol.😘
Pretty sure this road won’t be ready to open by Memorial Day 🙄
Trail Ridge Road @ Rocky Mountain National Park on 5/20/26 ↓↓
W0W!!😘
Doesn’t look good for opening Memorial Day!😮
Good grief!!!
Good morning, Sunny and 46 going up to 66 degrees. It was comfortable sitting out yesterday with a hoodie on. I read awhile out in the rocker chair under the new tent, it was nice. I helped Denny put together the wheelbarrow, it wasn’t hard. It is not real heavy which is what I wanted. By the time I get half a load in the heavy ones I cannot even push them! We have done a lot of yard work, trimming branches and small brush that had been growing up. Now the apple trees at the top of our driveway… Read more »
Hi Jenn
I figured it wouldnt be too hard to put together. That is nice that it isnt heavy.
How nice you will have apples!
We did not pick them last Fall, they have to be sprayed to keep t he bugs and spots off them and we did not want to do that. The deer were devouring them when they fell from the tree.
Will you try to pick them this year
