Little stomach upset this afternoon. Probably will eat toast for supper. Planned on sweet corn that I got from a farm truck but probably will skip that for tonight. Also bought a black diamond watermelon. So red and sweet. Picked up the books from the library, my prescription and a couple things for Pats birthday on Thursday. Was going to have angel food cake with strawberries but the strawberries didn't look so good so decided on pineapple fluff cake. Pretty easy to make. Just an angel food cake sliced into 3 slices and crushed pineapple. instant vanilla pudding and cool whip mixed and put between the slices and on top.
Just sitting here reading much of the afternoon but think I'll take my shower after Jeopardy. Maybe wake me up a bit. Woke up very early 4 a.m. and didn't sleep much after that.
Rained this morning but sunny, hot and humid now. Have my AC on so it's pretty comfortable in here. I know Ozzie would like to get out for a walk but way too hot for that. Don't like to have him out when the cement gets so hot. He's been out a few times on the lawn and will go out for a longer time after the sun goes down. Hope his walker comes tomorrow when it starts to cool off.
The news is all full of the incident on Saturday. Tired of watching it. bettyj

Hair is very short and back to my normal color. she does such a good job.!! We just talk talk talk!! I did pick out a very small bunny and cute wooden colorful bird. Like a wren. for my back porch railing. the wind is pretty strong so for now tucked them in corners. no rain and no the temps didn't go down and neither did the humidity so I will continue to complain.
I did drop off the books at Library as well and will continue with the one I am not done with yet.
rain still predicted for tonight and into tomorrow. Do I believe them. no I do not!!

I had a nice quiet day and when anything political came on, I changed the channel. I will say one thing political, Mark Cuban should run.
Betty, I haven't had good sweet corn since I lived in Ohio and bought it from the farm truck, Warner's corn. Right from the fields. Yum.
I make your cool whip stuff but use pistachio instant pudding, sugar free. It also calls for mini marshmallows. It's a good low calorie snack.
You all have a good evening and a good sleep.

Just put a casserole I froze before surgery into the oven, chicken and dumplings made with cream of chicken soup . We have leftover watermelon salad and the Polish plum cake I made, which is a nice combo of tartness in plums with sweet and buttery shortbread base and crumbles on top.
only 107 today, maybe storm again tonight.

I picked up some lamb chops and steelhead trout from Costco earlier in the week and froze most of it. Tonight I had steelhead trout with some yellow squash and mushrooms. Absolutely delicious!
It's been pouring rain since about 4:00. I managed to get the dog out a little about 7:00 when it was just sprinkling a bit.
Just want to take it easy until bedtime.

Hello everyone
I cleaned the corners in our bedroom. Also cleaned window sills and baseboards.
Worked a little on the photo scanning. Kinda freaked myself out. I was double checking and there was a large envelope maybe 200 photos inside not marked for scanning. I went through them and 95% are duplicates and already scanned. The few that I could not find in the Forever account are wonderful and worth going through them.
I found a photo taken on my high school graduation day with my great aunt. She was my favorite and this photo is priceless.
I know I was very organized when originally scanning. I am not exactly sure about these photos. I was overwhelmed scanning thousands and thousands of photos and uploading them into the Forever account into digital albums.
I now have every random photo sitting on my desk. I am confident this is all that is left. Hopefully will be finally finished when these are scanned, saved duplicates or thrown away. I think right now have about 100 at the most to scan. Won’t take long.
When we have a family party Aug 11 they will go through the duplicates and take what they want. Whatever is left will be shredded. All scanned photos will be in an envelope and added to the scanned archive box.
