Heather - every word written is a triumph, and every sentence a victory.
Egg has decided that every time my husband gets out of the shower he must give her a "bath." Egg is our cat. So she starts yelling at him the MINUTE he turns off the water, until he uses wet hands to gently wet her fur, and then his towel to rub her down. Evidently I don't do it correctly, although I did try once or twice. I am a disappointment to my cat.I love my weird little family.

Ok Debby, I am jealous! Beautiful - thank you for sharing this!
I think I spied one of those little guys out in my garden kind of hiding under the Lupine.

Kelly: You are a terrific mom, and long distance calls in the middle of your night earns extra points for your great mom meter. :flowerforyou:
Lanette: We never had a crockpot over-heat, or had a cord go bad. We had one that didn’t heat enough & failed to get food hot enough. Everyone who ate the stew got sick. We replaced it at the first opportunity. That was our most horrible kitchen disaster. Seven people were sick including both of us, our son and DDIL and his best friend’s whole family. It was beyond awful. On another topic, we love our spot by the river and are happy here. I’m very lucky that my friend lets me ride her horse.
(((Heather))) Envy sucks the joy from life. From my POV, you are being too hard on yourself. You are brilliant and full of energy. You are a published author & I admire you.
Lisa: I had a half Siamese cat who loved the water. Back in the day DH thought he’d prove me a liar by dumping her in the bathtub with me. She sat down and started to purr. The cat & I decided to let him live.He’d already embarrassed himself. :laugh:
We’re having a quiet day at home today. I would like to put some fun into it, but so far DH isn’t feeling well enough to have fun.

Hello dear friends, we met kids and most of grands for breakfast this morning. It was nice.
We had to hurry home as we had heavy rain and wind storm during the night. This morning we saw one of the huge pecan trees had split almost in half and landed on neighbors/best friends carport. Carport demolished but I don't think much damage to her car. Jack is still helping with clean up so Im not sure. Our neighbors on the other side had a large limb break from their Bradford pear tree and land on their daughters jeep and a section of 6' wood fence blown down. No wind today, but about to rain again.
Today is my oldest grandsons first wedding anniversary, hard to believe its been a year.
Love you my friends

Thank you Lisa and Katla for your kind words. Every one of them warms my heart.
Katla, it must be hard when your DH can't join in with the fun you want to have. You have been a good wife to him over a long marriage. I'm glad you have found ways to have fun even if he can't join you.
I've kept to my calorie goals these last two days, so I am encouraged that these extra pounds are sheddable.
Love to all, Heather UK xxxxxxx5 -
Church went good yesterday at bookstore grabbed JR books to read during. Luckily no tears just jammed it up. While my Dad preached he jammed it up asking Pawpaw to go outside. JRs pants fell down so he announced it Oh Noooooo he yelled over y over my pants my pants 👖. He yelled about his Bible to I want my Daddy...Pooh goes boom 💥. He was jamming it up. Didn’t interact with anyone but a 🐶 puppy y Mom/Dad. He saw another baby boy so he hid behind a table peeking at him . After out to Lunch he hammed it up some more. Then asleep all the way home lol. No tears luckily..he’s not a people person that’s okay his sister y Dad isn’t either.

So exhausted but watching calories eating half taking half home.2 -
Debbie ~ Your Pom looks just like mine. Mine is a strange one because he weighs 16 lbs. He has had skin problems and kind of looks like a patch work quilt at the moment. On thyroid meds.

Jake and I have been watching "The Great British Baking Show". There are six seasons available on Netflix so that's a lot of shows to watch one each day. I liked that I could watch with no desire to eat or bake the things I saw on the show. Not so for Jake. He decided that he'd like to bake bread and could probably learn to bake bread with no added salt so he ordered what he needed and now we have a bread maker, bread slicer, a book on no salt baking, and flour, sugar, yeast, apple sauce and orange zest for baking. He has had a blast today baking his first loaf of bread and naturally he wanted me to try it. White bread is something I almost never eat but this was part of Jake's Fathers' Day adventure.
The other part of his Father's Day treat is switching back and forth between the channels on TV to watch baseball and the US Open Golf Tournament. I can do a lot of chores and reading and riding the exercise bike while the TV is on. When it gets cooler, I'll go out and pull more weeds and spread more bark. All of this is fun for me.

Carol,sorry to hear about your puppy.Ours is allergic to grass.I keep his feet trimmed and occasionally wipe them with vinegar and water.He got into a nest of fleas one time and itched to baldness and raw flesh.I treated with all natural products.The veterinarian wanted to put him on prednisone.He has blue eyes and pink nose.Foxy has shed again and is looks so much smaller.Hope everyone has had a wonderful day.
Barbie,I’m glad Jake enjoyed baking and his Father’s Day.My hubby ,Robert,got a visit from our youngest daughter ,she gave him a card,money and chocolate.Our son and I made him what he wanted for supper,philly cheese steak subs. I’ll give him a deep tissue massage later and he’ll be happy.I know he really wants to hear from our oldest daughter,but she’s who she is and we don’t fit in her world right now.😔3 -
Debby, sounds like a great day at your house. Jake got a text from his daughter and nothing from his son. On Mother's Day, his son called me and his daughter ignored me. Fortunately, neither of us takes any of this personally and that's a happy place to be. Your dogs are darling.

Machka: I needed to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit to understand. 53 degrees in winter seems like a relatively pleasant bike ride temperature. Glad you enjoyed your ride. Your bay is gorgeous!!! :flowerforyou:
Katla in Beautiful NW Oregon
Yes 12 going down to 8 is 53 going down to 46. It was been a nice winter so far, but the less desirable conditions usually set in during July and August. So ... while we still have decent weather, autumn-y weather, we're getting outside as much as we can!
