Beryl, Jenn, Ardyth, Kathy, Lynn, Pam.
A cool and cloudy start to the day a high of 68F today with the odd shower around.
Once again turning Humid overnight again temps climbing into the 70F range next week with high humidity again.

Not even a cooling breeze today.
Cleaned out the bird baths that were looking very manky, birds seem to like pooping in the water.🙄.
Paper in hand time for the morning coffee fix.

Good Morning! Sunny and 67 going up to 92 with a poor air quality alert.
Not much news except that I have a haircut appointment this morning.

Good morning,
Cloudy today looks like rain will be mostly overnight. A little warmer 58 going up to 73.
We did a lot outside yesterday, took down the gazebo curtains and folded and put them away for next year. Den weed whacked and mowed and I dug around the deck getting lots of overgrown grasses out. It turned to sun early afternoon and was a nice day.

It seems funny without the curtains. Next year we will put up the screens, we just didn’t do it this year.

We usually have them tied back so you see the view but when the sun comes around in hot weather we close just the front usually to keep it cooler.

I have sat many days and hours enjoying this spot. I do love it. All woods out back I hear animals walking through the woods and see deer sometimes.

It used to run onto our patio and came under the kitchen door due to a parking lot they put in at the apartments behind us….Rick had our new fence wall bricked on the bottom and rerouted the water flow.

Good morning! I went and had my two pair of new glasses/frames adjusted by Chance and he did a much better job. When Rick was at the vet picking up meds the other day he told the receptionist that Nikki was coughing more and she wrote it on her chart. They actually called yesterday and wanted to see Nikki. Rick took her in at 2:40 and turns out she has a narrow trachea and that is why she is coughing SO much. So the Vet prescribed an narcotic , so he went to Walgreens and he will pick it up… Read more »

Wow Ardy, was she misdiagnosed all this time and taking meds she did not need? Amazing she did not cough all night did they stretch her throat. My BIL-Buzzy has to get his throat stretched once in awhile it closes in.
Good news you had Chance and got your glasses adjusted well.😀

Jenn…Nikki does have congestive heart failure. She is coughing from a narrow trachea. They have prescribed a liquid narcotic that works very well

Good morning.
Beryl, Jenn, Ardyth, Kathy, Lynn, Pam.
A cool cloudy morning with a few showers around this morning, still nothing significant, waiting for the heavy stuff to arrive one day.
A high of 68F today but all of next week we are in for a mini heat wave again with temp in the upper 70F range.
Will be looking to put back the light weight Duvet that saw up through the other heat waves.
Paper in hand time to settle down at my computer.
Coffee time soon with some bread sticks see you all soon.😀😘
