I am so ready for a coffee.... so here I am, grabbing of cup of java from Mary's always on and ready pot. LOL

TGIF everyone. Our skies are dark and cloudy so I hope the means rain. We had thunder and lightning last night as we were getting home at 10 ... but not much rain came with it. Just enough to wet the ground. What we really need is a three day soaker - but if I wish that for a weekend, the campers won't be too happy with me. LOL

We're off for the day. Need to finish some things we didn't get done yesterday ... we couldn't get our drain pipe under the vanity to get into the places it was suppose to go so it's another go at it today.

Good morning, everyone.

Here comes our nice weather finally.

MARY, the holiday busyness has started in this area, already. Activities are set up in our city park and there will be music, tonight. It looks like it will be a Fourth weekend for many. I am putting my flags out today and some of my red, white and blue has been displayed for a few days, already. I'm sure your weather will get more pleasant to chase the "moldies" away.

It was warmer going to church last night than in the morning. You could feel the balminess. So, when our temps get really hot and I start to bellyache, remind me of my comments when I felt so chilly on July 1st. And for sure, the tomatoes and the rest of the garden will love the heat. Lots of tomatoes, waiting for the first couple of red ones.

Going back to read the rest of yesterday's posts.

Nancy Z.

Sandy – I don't think I have to have blood work done again for another year. Thank goodness. Enjoy your quiet holiday weekend. Those are good to have sometimes.

Hauke – I'm glad you had a nice Canada Day. The food sounds delicious, especially if there are lots of leftovers.

Nancy – I'm not surprised that Laura will be busy with playing with the band this weekend. It is definitely a weekend for bands.

Marge – That was so sweet of the sales girl to give you the clock. Sit back and enjoy it, since you are so RAD! *lol* Enjoy your quiet holiday.

Doris – You would think that as many fires you all have out there, that people would not set off fireworks. It's crazy.

Mary – Hopefully you can do the Walmart thing today and then have tomorrow for celebrations.

Lorraine - I hope you are having a good time with DGS.

Deb - I haven't heard from you in a while. I hope everthing is okay and you are just busy. Your brother and his wife are visiting this week, right? So that's probably where you are. Have fun.

I saw pictures of Mt. Rushmore on TV this morning and thought of Susan and her family on vacation there. I hope they are having a good time.

My youngest sister called yesterday and she said we are doing the family "Cedar Point Day" next weekend. I wasn't sure if I could get Friday off from work, but my boss did approve it. That way, I can leave at some point Friday which is when most everybody else goes.
It is a beautiful day here right now. I am going to lay out in the sun. Tomorrow is supposed to be rainy. L

Good Morning Everyone!!

I am sure by now, that you all are in need of a good cup of coffee!! My pot is full, so grab a mug and lets share what is happening in our lives. I am on the "moldy" side here.....LOL We had rain and gloom all week and it doesn't look that good for today either. I think today, we are going to try and do the Walmart hair do thing, if Mom is feeling up to it.

Wishing you ALL a GREAT Friday and 4th of July Weekend!!

TGIF, Hauke...

Mary
