This should be the last of the super high heat now. Boy I sure hope so anyway, this has been the worst summer here. But I survived it all.
Yesterday I didn't do one thing done other than a short little nap and take Mandy out when need be. I've had more days like this these past months than I ever have had. I don't like just sitting and doing nothing, but I guess the older I get the more rest my body needs. Sounds like a good enough excuse to me.
Church on line this morning with my MN church. Not sure about going to my Yuma church anymore. It won't be long now and my pastor in MN will be retiring. And I will be lost. Maybe the fill in guy will do a good job and not put me to sleep. Once Howard, and his wife, Becky, retire, I won't be getting the link to the Sunday service anymore either. Unless my friend Dawn can get it and send it to me. But maybe by then I'll find a new church. Or at least check out the one I keep saying I will go to.
Jill wants to go and look around at a health store today. Not my cup of tea, but at least I'll get out and do something different. She likes things like that. I think that stuff is too expensive, IMO.
So far I have 8 Christmas cards made for my usage. I'ld like to make another 6 or so. But what doesn't sell at the porch sale I could use too. It's not like the spoil. hehehe
Coffee needs a refill and I need one more cookie.

Good Morning Ladies - - - It's a cloudy day with little sunshine - it's 68 now at 11:15. Nothing on the to do list for today, so will see how it plays out. I do talk to Darcy on Sunday's. Not sure if I told you this or not, but she is mostly been working from home since covid - going into the office once or twice a week for awhile. Now,, they have deceided that this is working, so they are giving up to office space and working entirely from home. She will still need to meet up with the person that sign's the checks that she makes out. She is happy about this, but I wish she would get out and see more people. Mamma, I have been so tired lately too - I can sleep late and still take a nap. I think it is probably that I don't have anything more exciting to do, so I sleep! Not a good habit to get into but seems to be happening.. If I have somewhere to go, I don't seem to need the nap, but then I haven't been going since I got home from the kids. Nice that you are keeping busy making your cards. I enjoy looking at them. Wishing a nice Sunday to all of my friends here.

IC, I wish I could sleep in that long. Wow!! Mandy would never be able to "hold it" that long. Could you use colors other than the yellows, that color makes it very hard to read. Thank you.
Jane, I agree, I think my tiredness has more to do with boredom than anything else. Once the heat is done, maybe I'll get out and about more often. I'm with Darcy, I would have loved working from home.

Good morning everyone, I have good intentions to go to the store. Haven't made it yet. I did go Wed, with my DS and DGS. We had baby Elijah with us so I just hurried up and got a few things. One was a watermelon. I eat it for dessert. Have had breakfast and coffee. Not much on my agenda. Maybe read or crochet a little. Hope everyone is doing good. I do pretty good except my knee hurts n my ankle. I will see the ortho Dr here in Oct. 🦋

Good Afternoon....
It's sunny and starting to warm up. It was chilly this morning, but I still had my coffee on my swing. I just put jeans and a sweatshirt on and I'm fine. It definitely has the feel of autumn in the air.
We went and visited my mom this morning. I took her fall mum to her along with a picture Penny drew for her. She had a big spruce tree cut down yesterday so we needed to see the big space it left. She will need to seed it with grass seed. I guess DH & I will be doing that for her when the time comes. DH isn't looking forward to that as it will be quite a bit of work.
Then we went to get DMIL's lunch and take it to her. She had just gotten up, so wasn't ready to eat it yet. She sat and had a bowl of cereal and toast. Her lunch was scrambled eggs, hash browns, sausage and toast, along with a dish of fruit and some pudding. She'll eat that for her supper. Seems she's been doing that a lot lately....not eating what she gets at lunch, but saving it for supper.
Tomorrow we will be leaving early to go up north for a few days...so I won't be checking in till Thurs.
Have a great day everyone.....

There's some sun today and I sure appreciate it. The temp has a cool feel and there isn't any high temps in the future predictions at this point. Yesterday was a busy but a slow pace for me. I had done my cleaning earlier do it seemed good to not be hurrying to get things done. It was Sunday school and church this a.m. Our retired pastor preached today. It's going to be a nap day for sure. I do have football on, it's good memories for me.
MAMMA I can relate to what you're saying about not doing much, moving slower and naps. Like you, I wonder is it age, boredom, or does my body need it? I think it might be a bit of each one for me. I definitely don't move as fast as I used to but I don't need to either. I have much more time than money. LOL
ICOOK I don't sleep that late either but I'm not up late. I go to bed early. If I sleep past 7:10 I'm doing good.
GREENBACK What does your Darcy do? My DD worked from home during covid but when it ended, she is back in the office. She prefers the office, she's a "people" person and likes interacting with them. I also miss the people I worked with but I don't miss the work. I like the fact I don't have to get up every a.m. and get ready for work. LOL
CAROLYN I hope the orthopedist can help heal your ankle and leg. I like watermelon too. I've had one this year and it was good.
CJ Enjoy your vacation! We went to the UP many years ago. I remember the boat ride was very cold. It was so cold that day but the ride was good and interesting.

I'm almost done for the day A little cleaning in the bathroom & dust my coffee table. I just got done eating lunch I know it's almost dinner time. Earl's nephew called & talked quite a while It'll just be a sandwich later & ice cream for dessert. Did a load of towels & wundies. Never got the zucchini batter made. Not going to do it now. I want to rest shortly. Tinker wants to go out so we'll be sitting on the glider for awhile.
Elle No sun here today A few more days of humidity then a big drop in temps. Only the low 70's I can finally turn the AC off then.

Hello and good evening. I got everything packaged yesterday to take to the church festival, put into two boxes and sitting on the counter. As I was getting ready to go this morning I could see where Mrs. Kravitz was trying to Alcatraz herself and the Nugget out of the kennel, so, 30 minutes and two yards of wire and part of a panel of chain link fencing later-tada!!!! They were kind of giving me stink eye as I left, but too bad! Opposable thumbs are so handy! I made an Aldi's stop for Al=no eggs except for organic ones, so had to go to WM too. Next I dropped off 12 pks of cookies at the church and went to the farm, we hung out there for a bit and went to lunch about noon. After we ate, we waited to get his folding tables and then took the signs down. If you brought something and it didn't go, you take it home, so he has some cookies and muffins that my sister made to snack on now. All is put away where they belong. Two people stopped as I had pulled over to get the signs out of the ground. That was nice, just that someone stronger than me had put them in the ground. They served 371 today, less than before all of the covid stuff, but better than last year. I knew he was tired so I headed out and stopped at my sister's to drop something off and headed back, the Yeti was here when I got back. I see that he didn't do doggie duty, so I'll do that in a few. I was pretty tired driving back, big lunch....
