Good Morning....
Another chilly morning in the upper 40's. No coffee on the swing this morning. The sun is shining and it will warm up today.
The deer have really been busy in my yard at night. They ate a pot of flowers out front and nibbled on some in back. I've sprayed everything again, but since it's approaching fall, the flowers are starting to fade. Everything is looking spent.
Lauriet...I would love to taste the chokecherry jelly. Are they a messy berry that the birds like and then leave their mess on your laundry on the lines like mulberries around here?
Icook...hope they still have the things you want at the store.
I need to go to Dollar Tree today and get a few things for the 90th party...like tablecloths and decorations. I'll see if they, by chance, have "90th" balloons. Probably not but I'll look.
DDIL made it safely to Argentina. DS doesn't think he will get time off work to go, which he is bummed.
Have a great day everyone.....

Another hot sticky and windy day. It's monsoon season until the end of September so that is the way it will continue to be around here. This morning there was a nice breeze which helped some with the high dew point. Mary and Emily were in the little pet area where we like to go. Big dogs were in the other pet areas and Emily is too little to be by them. Mandy and Emily were so happy to see each other. Emily wanted to kiss Mandy in the face and Mandy will not stand for that. Yuck, I don't blame her. hehehe
Instead of WM delivery today I'm picking up my order. Too many times I've had to toss the milk before the expiration date. And I only buy a half gallon. No thermo coolers are ever used so the products get too warm in the horrible heat we have now. And if there are other delivery stops before mine, everything gets warm or partially melted. Not good. We used to do pick up so it's no big deal, just that delivery is more convenient.
Lynda and I had a great time yesterday. She made us pizza for lunch and vanilla pudding for dessert. And of course we worked on some card making techniques which created another order for me. LOL I almost have everything I lost. If it weren't for Mandy I would have stayed longer, but nature calls. Mandy was so happy to see me when I got home, she was as wiggly as a worm cut in half. LOL Quite the analogy huh?
I've got quite a bit of organizing to do in here again. And y'all know how much I enjoy doing that sort of thing. It will keep me busy until I pick up my groceries and more. Lunch may not happen until mid afternoon or I'll just have an early supper. When I'm busy I often times forget to eat. It's not like I don't have enough fat to keep me going. LOL As long as I have my water I'm good.

Good Morning Ladies - - - Not much for news here, but I wanted to check in anyway, so you know I am alive and kicking!!! I am getting an oil change today - not that it involves me, just need to remember to open the garage door. They come pick up my vehicle and bring it back a short time later. I leave a check in the car, and we are both happy campers! I seem to only need one a year anymore, as it takes me a year to get the 3000 miles anymore! I think the kids will be living at the new house from her on out - they planned to bring another load either last night or this morning, and they I think they will be staying there for the most part. They will still have more to bring, but with school now, they will be at the new place most of the time. If I remember right, they close on the old house on Sept. 9, so have a couple of weeks to get it all out yet. Last night, I got a call from my friend and she wondered if she could come down and talk to me for awhile. Of course, I said sure, and she came down and I tried to help her with a few suggestions and words of comfort. I can't solve her problem, and neither can she, but I hope I helped her when she needed it. Laurie, hope your hands are better today - the weekend is coming and you need them healed up to hold MB. IC, enjoy your time with Christina today. CJ, when is the BD party? I'm sure your Mom will enjoy it and be happy with you for getting it together and all you are doing for it. Will you be doing the food also? When we were having problems with the deer eating the flowers at the cemetery, it seemed to be the red flowers they went after - although there was a bigger selection there. Now, that I have had to go to silk, I don't pay much attention, or go as often, although I did take a drive through there yesterday, after I took a card to the PO box. Mamma, so glad you had a nice day yesterday - - I am surprised that they don't use an insulated bag to bring your groceries - at Fareway, they use one to just bring them to the car. I think I need to make something for supper today too, but what shall it be??? I have time to think on that yet, or I could just have tuna mac salad again, but thought I could use that for lunches now and have a change. Time will tell. Hope everyone is doing well and having a nice day - - it's a chilly one here, so far.

They want to do injections, but I haven't had any therapy or other procedures so they won't do it without the insurance is approval. They're going to try to find out what they can and let me know. So that was my diagnosis yest. I am trying to get by the best I can. My friend took me to the doctor, we ate lunch at Shoneys afterwards. I am sleepy. Sleep on my side and rest pretty good. Can't lay on Back flat. I hope all of you are well. Be back later

Greenback....the party is Sunday Sept 8th. My sister in law is helping with the planning..so that helps a lot. We are not making the food...she is getting those big party subs and we will have potato salad, coleslaw and chips. I'm still thinking what else we could have, if anything. There should be about 35-40 people.
I have a question, and I think it's been discussed before. I'm thinking of getting a new washing machine and want a Speed Queen. Anyone here have one or have opinions/comments?

I have a Speed Queen dryer and washer and absolutely love them. Best purchase I ever made. Expensive but worth it. Fast cycles and they clean and dry the clothes wel!
