Canada Day here...and pouring rain.

My Aunt's DD was supposed to get married on the beach today...they were lucky enough to be able to hire a room at the reception venue as a replacement ceremony space. No kids allowed at the venue though(a posh country club) so I am staying home with the kid's. There are a lot of people not attending though because of the 'no kids' rule.

I'd rather stay home anyway.

ah we had that problem with Ian during the week Emily was here for my MIL's funeral....I did not know who to feel more sorry for..her or Ian.... The girls & henry were used to sleeping here, they had what was familiar beds for them here.

Well I made Rod a dessert so he would have a treat tomorrow when he was home alone--As I am going to be gone spending the day with my cousin again--YAY for days out.

Sweet Dreams to you all.

Have fun Junie.

Tina....the humidity that comes with the heat is just awful, I do hope you can keep your house cooled down.

More thunderstorms for today. I wish Mother nature would settle down for a bit....I need to go wild strawberry picking this week.

Good morning. I slept pretty well. I will go out and shop and bank this morning. I could have done it on Friday, but heh, I didn't want to.
It is still a dry heat so my cooler is still working for now. If it becomes more humid the cooler is less effective.
I hope everyone has a wonderful Monday.

Happy 4th of July to all of you.

so, now that I have complained, I must tell you all--the neighbors down the road from me, apparently bought a LOT of nicer fireworks for their children. and I just finished watching about 20 minutes of the last part of the fireworks display, from my porch, that they put on for the kids---it was very nice, and NO mosquitoes were there to help me "observe" either...so double YAY

bad news ?? the people across the road for me have twin babies..and they had to put the kids in the car & go drive around so the babies could sleep & not have their ear drums messed with. All is quiet now...thank goodness.


I hope that everyone had a wonderful 4th, and there everyone enjoyed their various celebrations.

I am soon headed to bed.

Good morning ! coffee

I was looking at my calendar last night and I realized that my Mom has a Drs. appt. this afternoon. AND I play chauffeur, so my day just got re-organized.
Still no rain on the horizon...ya gotta wonder about weather forecasters sometimes.

I'll be leaving my cooler on the next few night's We are getting some humidity that makes it harder for a swamp cooler to work well.
I am not sure how long this heatwave is going to last. The last one stayed around almost twice as long as called for.
Sweet dreams all.

Good morning.
Yes, We are to get evil weather. Not pretty at all.

Good morning. I slept well myself. It is already hot here. It is not a good day for moving. And I don't plan on doing much of it. It is a cold food kind of day.
I hope everyone has a great Friday.

I guess it is hot everywhere. I hate the humid heat we are getting at the moment.

Yesterday's trip went good. I went to Walmart to pick up a few things, then decided to check out their garden center. It was a mess, the girl said that all items (with no identification tags) was $3. I picked up three that were lilacs(I could tell from the leaves). 3 shrubs for $9 is quite a deal. Then I get home and upon lifting them up could see that they were marked with the variety name under the pots....great thing is that the three are different. White, pink and a purple grin

Yes I guess it is hot everywhere---sad to say.....

3 lilacs..YAY for you !! And such a bargain too !! I am envious of the pink lilacs-----sounds dreamy. IF I DD's lilac bush ever blooms it will be white---it did bloom back at the farm a bit & it was white----
BUT back to you, to have all 3 is an awesome thing !!! YAY for You !!!

well !! Rod woke me up this morning & we went to Lowes & bought my hose reel & a new hose. Then we went to a produce farm about 1 hr away from us & bought Lodi apples, peaches & a qt. of blackberries. The apples are now ALL applesauce-- I used to made Lodi applesauce when we lived at the farm..we had our own tree.

BUT my new hose had a cut in it and so we had to drive back--and NOW the hose reel is hard to use--as it is too small..it is the box kind, was not cheap & was supposed to hold 175 ft---well it is holding 100 ft & barely doing that---but oh well---it is what it is--and people wonder why it is so hard for me to make a decision--it is b/c things like this always seem to happen to me.

but oh well,,happy belated birthday to me....

Hi all.

I was gone all day yesterday...my SIL threw a grad party for her twin grands. Today I am hosting a party for my grandboy.

Good morning. Have a fun day spoiling your grands, Sunny.
I slept poorly and woke to a missing kid this morning. I knew Teddy was up in the night but couldn't find him this morning. Finally found him on a tarp on the deck. He scared me. He woke up and moved back to bed now.
It was mighty warm last night.
I hope everyone has a good day.

Tina, glad you found Teddy safe---I guess it was nicer outside last night, huh???

Sunny, have fun today.....sounds like a wonderful time will be had by everyone. You sure are a good Grammy.

I am washing clothes & doing the prep work for Chef salads that will be tonight's supper...DH requested them so he would not have to eat Pizza for supper tonight...thing is it is not pizza i am liking but the ease of the prep for the pizza...he should offer to take me out on Sunday night as well as Sunday morning if he does not want Pizza for supper on Sunday night...JS.

If he wants something special for Sunday, he ought to be in charge of prep and clean-up, Carol. That's my thought, anyway.

Tina what a scare you had. Glad he didn't go far.

Johnny can, will, and sometimes does make his own food but I'd rather not have the mess. His clean up is definitely not the same as my clean up. A chef salad does sound good.

The Fresh Chef salad was good. as was the peach shortcake desserts we had afterward..but making the chef salads were a lot of work. Good thing Rod came up to me & thankjs me for making him the salad (you know, instead of popping a frozen Pizza in the oven.....

WE just tried to burn off my brown weeds--sad thing is it only worked well in my mulched area close to the house..and DH did not want fire that close to the house---oh well, we tried....

Good morning. I slept pretty well last night. And our temps are not supposed to rise above 100* today. Many reasons to celebrate.
I am going out on a restock mission today.
I hope everyone has a great day.

Hi all.

Tina, does Teddy roam often? That is scary.

Party is over, my house is a wreck...these day's kids seem to run wild. And the parents sit and play on their phones instead of dealing with the kids. I just got in from mowing grass (it didn't rain last night or this morning)now to deal with the hurricane in here. I officially announced that this is the last year for b-day parties in my house.

Good morning. I am up. But slept poorly again. I have plans that include going out but may change my mind. I just need to go out before the next heatwave comes back.
It is nice to think of Carol having fun at ceramics today.
I hope everyone has a great day.

I had a nice time today, & I finally got my Victorian Carolers done---I did not buy them (too tiny for me & faces to be done on them, & I am not an eye person) but they were a gift from the owner of the ceramic place that we go to for last Christmas.....so paint them I did.

horrid hot again---I will go out tomorrow as there are taxes to pay.

Good Morning !!

The weather on TV says it will be HOT today--right now there is a cool breeze and it is beautiful out. I so wish I had of gotten up with Rod, so I could have gone out to get a few hours of work done. But as it is I have bookwork & a pie to make...Before I go to town......perhaps I will plan to get up tomorrow with him.

Hello--
Today I ran my errands, and then came home & made a peach pie, & cinnamon rolls out of the leftover crust. (you know you roll out the extra crust, put a layer of butter & then coat with cinnamon sugar...roll up, cut into 1/2 inch rounds & bake until golden brown. Now I have a LOT of dishes to wash..but hey, we will have Peach pie for dessert tonight.

OK, so apparently Photobucket is no longer free not to mention the "subscription" prices are very high..$5.99..$8.99 and $39.99 a month billed annually--BUT only the last one allows you to do 3rd party hosting & linking....Not worth $479.88 a year to me...

.....so can anyone help me find a new photo hosting site--hopefully a FREE one????.........................Thanks in advance...

I guess I also have to learn Jame's new way to post photos....Sunny says it is much easier
.

I am soon off to sleep. sweet dreams to you all

no, nothing out of the ordinary is wrong---I think I just get my body going late at night (that is when I do my work) and also I think my iced tea may not really be decaffeinated like the box says it is.

I will drink water tonight & see if that helps any, but that experiment might not help as this does not happen every night...

Good morning. It is going to be brutal out starting today and beyond. I want to have all in my house to see us through for a few days.
I hope everyone has a wonderful day.

Well, dishes are clean, a load of laundry is done & I think I will be going to sleep soon.

Hi all..I ran errands as well yesterday.

Grandboy had to get immunizations...now the fevers have begun. He won't have to get any more for another three years thankfully.

Another hot day ahead...not sure what today holds besides the usual chores.

Good morning.
I am sorry about your grandboy, Sunny. They give too many cluster vaccs in my opinion.
Today I'd like to get some house cleaning done before it gets hot. Wish me luck!

I know I came on here around noon today--I thought sure I posted...oh well...sorry guys.

Tina...while I know cleaning in the cooler weather is a plus----if you do not, oh well..just let it go for the time being---I promise the dirt will not be going anywhere..just make sure there are clean clothes/beds & clean dishes... the rest will wait, I assure you.

Sunny...my youngest DD had issues with vaccinations. She not only had a fever after the first shots but she was VERY lethargic as well..it scared me. Her Dr. & I had a very long & involved conversation the day of her next set of shots. The Dr. won, & she got the shots, glD to say my DD was fine---the way she acted, you would have thought she got NO shot as all...

Kindergarten shots are next for the GB ???

the next days are in the 90's and then we will have several days of triple digit temps...Ya gotta love July---NOT

ok just out of the tub.
I went out, watered my tomaotes & 1 potato pot....then all my flowers. This morning Rod cut out the mulberry tree that thought to grow on the flower bed up against our house in the back---3rd year of it doing this, but if I use something harsh on it, I am afraid it will also kill my 2 Hostas, my Green Envy Echinacea, and my Autumn Joy Sedum . So, no doing that.....

I then pulled out some dead weeds & the swept the pavers where my vegetable pots are.....at least that much is done...

going to watch TV now

Hi all.

I agree with you on the shots Tina...Junie, he had a bad reaction to his 12 month ones so we put off the 18 month ones until he was two. Pre-Kindergarten is the next round of them.

We got some hay baled yesterday...it is hard to get three dry days in a row. The next round of thunderstorms start today. I guess our atmosphere can't handle this heat.

Good morning !

Sunny----the vaccinations may be scary, but IMO they are necessary.

Temps in the 90's today, with a 20% chance of showers

Great on getting your hay in, Sunny.
I am not saying don't vaccinate. I am saying don't cluster them all together as is done. Give alternative ingredients to kids with a sensitivity to eggs and things. A better schedule.

I agree with you Tina, and I knew what you meant--I was just sayin' is all.

SO many people of the child raising age now a days are not getting their children vaccinated, it scares me is all.

Good for you on being able to get your hay in Sunny..what with all of your rain, you were fortunate to get it all in in a timely fashion. Good for you all !!!

Poor Rodney is out cutting grass in this heat.....

Tina, the shots are clustered...then they give two. It's twice as hard on the kids. No wonder they have so many reactions these days...it is sad.

Junie, we only have about 25% of our hay in....it is just too much work to cut it all at once. It seems harder each year to get it in with the weather.

Another hot day with storms ahead....cleaning and mopping in the plans.

Have a good one.

Good morning.
Today is only supposed to be about 100*. But the humidity is going up a bit. It seems like a good day to go through my old mail and see what can be safely disposed of. Mostly a sitting still job.
I hope everyone has a good Monday!

Sorry for the heat, Tina.....I hope you can keep cool enough to sleep well.

I went out to water tonight---it was so cool (in comparison to previous nights) that I wish I had the evergy to do some work on the landscaping--but it was 8:00 so I came in after I had watered & changed out the hummingbird feeders.

Going to make Rod lunch for tomorrow & then head to sleep. Sweet dreams everyone.

Good morning. I am looking at another hot day. We seldom get rain in summer. Maybe a storm in August but never enough to do much good.
I hope all have a good Tuesday.

Sitting here eating a tomato sandwich. Or should I say mater sandwich since I'm a southern. It's an orange tomato and boy is it good. We're at 87° but the weather report says it feels like 96 and we have 87% humidity. Can't imagine what August will bring.

The weather is crazy everywhere. We are getting temps of 100* also, with the odd daily evening thunderstorm. The garden is loving it though.

today's high is around 97*F but the temperatures for next 4 or 5 days, at least, will be in the triple digits, with each day getting warmer. I just saw 3 sparrows (I think) trying to drink from the hummingbird feeder. They apparently thought it was water. Poor things...

I will put out my water feeder. (like a thistle feeder but for water)

Happy Wednesday.....

It's hot and muggy and looks like rain... sure hope we get some.....we finished up the house... except for getting the carpet cleaned.. I usually do it but we are having it done this time... we have the garage full of packed boxes, and excess furniture... the realtor is coming tomorrow... house will go up for sale soon... so ready to get the show on the road and get moved...


I am getting fed up with our credit union here, so glad we will be moving accts... they won't let me transfer money between accts online, I have to call every time I want to do it and have them do it... pain in the &(*, this has gone on for months now.. funny it lets me pay the car and house loans with no problems at all.
I call complain and they refer it and nothing is done to fix it... so frustrating...

Well I need to get Joe to bring the vacuum down so I can use it.,need to dust too, just wish I had more energy ,doing much of anything still wears me out... getting old...

Well won't get done till I get busy... have a good evening all....

Nana

I like fall too. I like school being out and being together as a family but I don't like hot weather.

Nana, are your bones all healed up?

Gee I was sure I came in & said goodnight....So sorry that I did not.

Good morning. I am still drinking my coffee.

On today's agenda is lunch out with my brother. I am used to seeing him at his job as a butcher at a local grocery store. That place closed, & so I do not get to see him so very often anymore.....

Good morning. Today I'm going out again before the heat slaps me down. It's a race and Mother Nature wins most of the time.
