We lost electricity again this morning and that had me sleeping quieter as the fan was off. Thankfully it was temperate enough without the cover on top and just the sheet and a few more hours of sleep were enjoyed. Today the tomatoes are out drying in the sun, we have leftovers for lunch with a salad I will make to go with it, and a letter to write to an investment company. I have written a review for a book that took me to North Carolina and as it is an Own Voices story and not my voice...learned a few things. There was a conference call with our children last night and getting the logistics sorted was interesting. We should probably do it more often.
BEVERLY: Looking forward to hearing about your day at the courthouse. I have never been to a courtroom or to a trial but have watched a few on TV.
CHERRY: Thank you for the article. I will pass the information on to my husband - the gardener. What kind of green beans do you have? We have had the flatter wider ones recently and sometimes find the thinner ones that grow from black eyed peas but rarely the ones in between like Blue/Green Lake type beans
LYN: It might be fun to have a pedicure at the beach...maybe go with a cousin?

Good morning all,
Nice day here, looks like it will be hot.
Yesterday at the courthouse was very interesting. It was a murder trial & I was never called back to sit on the jury. In the waiting room, we watched the pre-trial proceedings on closed circuit tv. It was a murder trial & it took the 3 1/2 hrs to seat the jury. They had called in over a hundred prospective jurors & by the luck of the draw, I wasn't chosen. So far, I have only had to sit on one jury & it was a simple DUI case. I have to call in tonight to see if I am needed tomorrow. That will be the last day of my duty. Thank goodness, I am out of there before next Monday, that is the day they are starting the trial for the man killing a deputy in our area a couple of years ago. It is a capital murder case & a death penalty case. I sure didn't want to be on that jury.
I made homemade salsa last night & canned it. Had a sample of it this morning over my eggs, very tasty! Still have lots of tomatoes to figure out what to do with. I really enjoy preserving food. About the only hobby that I have.
Have a great day everyone! Hope you spend the day doing something that you enjoy.

Good morning. I think the beans I have are kind of like the Lake type beans, commonly called string beans but they don't have strings. I also have some of the yellow wax beans. They both are considered a bush bean. They don't climb or need to be staked and the plant grows to a little over a foot high. I steamed some last night and had a potato and a small chicken cutlet. Tonight I think I'll have some Swiss chard along with some beet tops. I think I may have a yellow summer squash ready too. I checked it a couple days ago and it was almost ready to pick.
It is supposed to be hot today and will be in the 90s clear into next week. This is getting old fast. I'm going to go out and check my garden this morning and pick what needs to be picked before it gets any warmer. Other than that I'll find something to do inside, maybe in the basement where it is cooler. And in between times I'll probably do some reading.
Have a good day, beaches.

Hi...It's a late check in for me. My cleaning lady came and I am all organized for the beach. My DH had my DNephew go and pick up the cheesecake for me and he delivered it right to my freezer downstairs. I just have a few more things to pack and my beauty products, whcich I will do on Saturday before we go.
I have to drive into the city tonight to pick up my daughter's suitcase. Of course, she just told me she has to work late, so I won't be leaving until 7:30 at the earliest.
That's all for now! Have a lovely evening!
