Thanks, diva49,. I need coffee too. Taking DH back to the eye specialist for a re-check of his eye. We'll eat lunch downtown at one of our favorite restaurants. I'll be eating lighter for dinner, maybe sliced grilled chicken over a salad. No need to mention the summer heat. I laughed at the TV this morning when the weather guesser said Houston may get a cool front here next week. Low will be 70, high will be 92. HUH? Oh well, the meteorologists around here really have to work hard to find things to talk about when we have months of identical forecasts. Hope everyone has a great day! |

I couldn't get to sleep until 2 am last night. It has affected my morning. Yesterday was a very unpleasant day. I won't go into it.
I hope everyone has a nice day today and keeps cool. I can't wait until autumn.

Morning all and thank you diva49 for kicking us off! ☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️ lmenglish I was halfway through that book when the flood hit and I completely had forgotten about it. I need to grab another copy, it was a fantastic book. I looked up when the DVD was going to be released since I don’t have NetFlix and there is no information on it at this time. I hope they do eventually release it. ((( cyndee )))) Waiting on pool guy for estimate. I don’t think I even want to know since I still have AC to replace. There are two other choices, a) filling it in or b) having it declared a wildlife sanctuary. I am leaning toward b at this point. 🤣🤣🤣 Have a great day everyone! 🏝🤗☕️☕️ |

I'm in. RIP Aretha. I had so much coffee earlier, I'll be awake for days. So far it's been a nice day. I have a few stops to make and then dinner out tonight with the family. DebDoesWW, Ugh the pool mess is just overwhelming but, Becky's right, you've got to have good A/C. I can't believe it's been almost a year! (( cyndee, )) hang in there Hope everyone enjoys the day! |

cyndee,- love and support. I had a rough day yesterday also. Mom-update- She still has some kind of bowel blockage, they're calling it an "illius"?? So now they are giving her lots of laxatives to purge it. But they are talking about releasing her next week, so my brother is trying to move her bedroom downstairs in her house. I'm now having some lady issues. Will spare Zazzles the details! But it was enough to scare me and I called Dr. who said to just watch it. I think I'm falling apart! But I've tracked with points since Tuesday. So that's good!

Good afternoon.
Will spare Zazzles the details! But it was enough to scare me and I called Dr. who said to just watch it. I read that as "I called Dr. Who...". Did a double take.
I had my quarterly Diabetes check with the Endocrinologist. He was satisfied with the numbers but told me to increase the insulin at lunch and dinner just a bit. Lat night's cooking class was great (Julia Child's Birthday). We roasted a whole Beef tenderloin, made Potatoes Ana (fancy name for sliced potatoes roasted in a hot oven in way too much melted butter), and celebrated with strawberry shortcakes made with Brioche rolls glazed with Apricot, soaked with Rum-infused simple syrup, and (of course) whipped cream. The Beef was extremely tender, although it tasted bland to me and I think it needed more salt. The potatoes were meh, but I think that's because I don't eat potatoes much anymore and use butter in ways that enhances tastes. The dessert was good, but I think I'd have preferred strawberries and cream inside choux (cream puff) shells. But all in all a good time and meal were had by all. Saturday will be a lethal cooking class: Julia Child's Desserts. I'm already checking my insulin supply for that one! Nothing else is happening at the moment. I may hear some street activity soon because it is the first day of school and I assume the elementary school up the corner will be letting out soon. |
