Hi Ice,

It sounds like you have rounded the corner from the suffering heat wave!
So happy you slept well and it looks like that will be the trend now.😘
It sure can happen fast from wearing shorts to needing longer pants. We had had a beautiful summer but Fall is around the corner and it will be lots cooler here soon.

Hi Ice
Great news about more comfortable temps for sleeping 😴😘

When we went out to eat at Hickory Tavern Wednesday evening for Craig’s birthday I thought of you when I saw one of the appetizers. Can you guess which one?

Woo-hoo! Both Beryl and Ice got rain 💦 so happy for you; Ice’s car is still in business. Jenn got her kitchen all put together, Love Ardyth’s new bag, especially the color; Kathy’s celebrating Craig with Lauren and Joyce — all these happenings make my heart happy 💞
And thank you all so much for the prayers/good wishes for Rick & my family. I appreciate it more than I can say — Love and Hugs 💗

Hi Pam.
The few showers were very welcome but no steady rain on offer in the near future.
At least the temp has dropped back to 66F today ands much cooler nights.😀😘

Hi Pam, not liking the rain but it saves me having to water my plants. Not giving up on the shorts though but the legs got a bit cold last night ! I am being eaten alive by insects and I am covered in bites that itch like hell ! 😮

Another 102 degree day; Ark Valley Fair is in full swing; today’s Kids’ Day, all the rides they can do for 1 price. Yesterday was Senior Day and lots of the residents from Pioneer went to the 6.45a breakfast. Lordy 🙄
Laundry done, dishes washed & stove cleaned. Chuck had a 9a meeting with the Director, he left here at 8.55a 😘 I’ll probably go over around 2.30-3p; so nice to just pop in 🤗

Good Morning! Another hot and humid day ahead. At 8:30 it’s sunny, humid and 76 going up to 96 with heat index 103 🥵 We all had a great time eating out at Hickory Tavern for Craig’s birthday dinner. The cake turned out pretty well (denser than I thought it would be). Craig, Lauren and I had a slice when we got back home. The chocolate fudge ganache is a tad bitter for me but Craig liked it so that’s all that matters 😊 This morning Lauren and I will be taking Matcha and Chai to get their annual FELV… Read more »

Hey Kathy — the cake looks perfect and dense tells me it turned out the way it’s supposed to 😋 We all get so used to a box mix, which is light, that when we use actual flour/sugar, it’s a surprise 😊

Thanks and good point Pam 😉 I guess I’ve been too used to the boxed mix cakes 😏

Such pretty flowers!
Shimmering in the sunlight! Look at these gorgeous, jewel-toned petals. Ice plants get their name from the specialized cells on their leaves and petals that catch and reflect the light, making them look like they’re dusted with morning frost.
