Good morning. I am glad it is Friday. It is also Jonni's birthday.
I have been watching Harvey making a bee line for Texas and points east. Stay safe out there.
Have a great day.

Happy belated b-day to Jonni.

Prayers for all in the hurricane's path.

I was gone all day yesterday...Grandboy had an appt with a bone specialist. They are keeping an eye on bowing in one leg.

I hope the leg 'self repairs' with use, Sunny.
Good morning/afternoon. I've been up for a couple hours or more. I had an odd night's sleep again. And when I woke I crawled around looking for hurricane news. Now I'm ready to begin my day.
I hope all have a good Saturday.

I hope the appointment went well. I know that journey myself. Both my girls went & both are fine today.

Sorry yoiu did not sleep well, Tina. I hope you get a good night's sleep tonight. Will the hurricane reach you, Tina ?? It will be no worry for us.

No, it will be no worry for me either. I am a longer distance than you are, I think.
I have a heat wave here. I do not like it at all.

The weather people say we will most likely not even get much rain from Harvey. But I do appreciate the cooler temps--which I assume are because of that system. I hope that your heat wave passes soon.

I really would like to go out & work on my yard...but I just do not have the energy----oh well perhaps tomorrow.

As planned, I didn't move much today. I had salad for lunch and some cereal for dinner. Keeping it simple during the heat. I also have fruit and such. We'll be fine here.

We are getting a few days here with no humidity...it is a refreshing change. I just cannot imagine having to bare with the heat that you get Tina.

Junie, they are pretty sure that the leg will be fine. It all came from him sitting in a yoga position while he was growing in mom's tummy. The leg and foot was crossed and sitting up on the opposite thigh...and because he was so big, he never turned ad stayed breach. The doc was amazed to see the paperwork that they had to do a c-section three weeks early because he was almost 10 pounds at that time.

Today I need to clean out the wood shed...it is that time of year. I plan to move the seasoned wood this week...into the shed for this Winter's use.

Thanks Sunny. that is good news for sure.

Tina, sorry for the hot weather...I so hate when we get that.

I am once again going to TRY to head out to work on the back yard. Rod was going to help me (he said it was a one time offer lol ) but a freiend of his called him away to a man's outing. I told him to go...

I am trying to keep my little family as comfortable as possible. It is not an easy thing. But we are getting by.
My thoughts are with those in Texas and Alabama, LA fighting the dregs of hurricane Harvey.

it is getting overcast now I assume it might rain. I just finished cleaning out my front flower bed. WHY I brought a weed with me (on purpose yet) when we moved is beyond me. They had overtaken my wild violets, so I cleaned the weeds out, then I added more soil. I then replanted some of the violets that got pulled out when I was removing the weeds.---looks pretty good now.

Yes I have been watching the weather in the south as well. I feel so very sorry for them. That must be so devastating to everyone there. I wish them well..

A road trip where, Carol?
Good morning. It is supposed to get to 110* today. I squeezed a lemon in a large glass of water to hydrate already. I haven't even had my coffee yet.
And I had to check on Harvey. My thoughts are with those affected.
I hope all have a great Monday.

Yikes Tina..that is too hot.

I went for my yearly check up at the doc's office. I was told to lose weight..at least 30 pounds. I'm not liking her much today lol

I picked up bottled lemon juice today to make lemon water...real lemons are a treat to find here.

Tina: I missed the 110*F temps . I hope that you all kept cool enough.

I am Sorry to hear the bad news, Sunny. IF you find a way to lose 30 pounds I sure need to hear about it......

As far as drinking goes, I stopped soda & now drink iced tea. 3 bags in a quart of hot water for a few hours until it is a dark as I like it--then I use Splenda to sweeten it..but I have heard that your body does not know the difference between sweeteners & sugar...THAT is one I will have to ask my dr. next month.

Yes, artificial sweeteners do trick your taste buds but leave you craving more. I learned to enjoy unsweetened tea or to add a little organic juice to it.
Good luck on your weight watching, Sunny.
I survived the day even at 110*. I'll say good night now. Sweet dreams all.

Hi all.

Giving up soda is going to be the hardest thing for me to do. I guess there is no choice with doctor's orders. I was told as soon as I lose 30 pounds to go for more blood work. Time to get my butt in gear lol

We had a light frost this morning..a warning to start preparing for Fall. I just finished cording all this Winter's wood in the shed. I am glad to see it done and DH is baling the last of the hay today as well...there is always some chore to be done it seems.

Good morning. It looks like it will cool to 100^ by Tuesday. It feels odd to cheer for a 100 degree day. But you feel each degree above it.
I hope everyone has a great Wednesday.

I hope it cools soon for you Tina.

It is overcast here so I took advantage of it and cut grass, weeded and weed wacked the ditch. Supper is cooking...then I need to take in hay. I'm gonna feel like 'old bones' in the morning haha

I need to go to the grocery store, but a lady is supposed to bring me the Church key (an actual key to our church, not a bottle opener winky ), and has not done so yet...I may be going to the grocery this evening....

Junie, maybe you can post pictures of your brick edging you mentioned in the garden thread. Hope so anyway. Did you get your church key? (made me laugh)
