Good photo!
 

GrannyG , I have made 2 blueberry pies & they have disappeared!

I'm waiting for peaches to get ripe... want to make a peach blueberry pie.

I emailed a good friend that if she would tell us a time we & how many blueberries she wants we would take them to her.

The last time we talked , sounded like her son & pregnant wife were moving in with them.

Rain forecast this evening ,, so far a No Show.
 

My son and I had an unofficial studio session. He was playing around with some suggestions I made for one of the songs slated for my album. I may have been in there, explaining further and listening to what he came up with for 20 minutes. Not our usual two hour session. Maybe tomorrow. I also put away the meds I got yesterday and today from OptumRX and rotated some stock.
 
Ahhh. Slept like a baby last night. Went to bed around 9:30 and didn't wake up until 5:30, not even to visit the loo.

It's gonna be hot again today with precious little chance of rain. Sigh. This weather is getting tiresome, and the flowers are not one bit happy. By about 2 in the afternoon they're wilting not from lack of water because they get watered well every morning, but from the relentless heat. Poor things.

This morning I have to buckle down and do some serious weeding. "Too tired" after work isn't an excuse anymore.

Yesterday felt like Saturday. Today feels like Sunday. Sigh. It'll be a few days before I settle into which days are which.
 
Still pouring of rain.. so my washing had no chance at all of being put outside... . I've yet to go to the barn to see if it's dry yet...

Gotta go and fetch some fence paint from the Big box hardware store in town, which I paid for online... a few days ago. I got it even tho' I have fence paint, because this is a new concept... a waterproof paint, and the store was selling it at a great price..

... and also gotta finish my packing for my trip early hours of Monday morning..
 
There's a 50% chance of rain today. I can't take the odds. I'll have to water at least, some potted plants.

We will test out our new shower today! We wanted to be sure we gave everything a good chance to set.
It seems so strange that it's done. It's been many years since that shower went out out of commission.
Now I will thoroughly clean and do maintenance on the guest shower we've been using.

I lived in a house with eight children and one bathroom, one tub, no shower. My parents prepared me for this time. 😁
 
Last night it rained & thunderstormed so much I cancelled a beach date with my family for today. Don't go to a beach after heavy rain around here! So, son/dil/grandson & me will have a beach day Sunday. DIL enjoying her 4 days off. Today I will do whatever. Just as long as I feel good I'm fine.

I remember the two months of severe pain I had this winter. Am so grateful not to be in pain.

Ooh, but all the goods shells wash up! Why don't you go after rain?
So glad for you not being in pain.
 
Morning folks....had a decent sleep, even tho I seem to wake
several times in the night, ah well, hand is much better, however
I still have to watch what I do and how I do it, or it goes into a spasm of sorts...whole system is nervous/shaky today due to
that copd inhaler system...cleaning person was here yesteeday\\\\....she left me with 4 balloon animals in honor of
my coming birthday haha,,,she said she used to work as a clown
and would make the balloon aniumals for kids....so I guess I am
just an old kid !!!!!:LOL:
 
Racked my brains what to do to dry it all.. and set up a rudimentary system in the barn to hang clothes on...turned the dehumidifier on , and the heater...just in time because the Rain is coming down in Stair rods and has been for the last few hours.
Rain coming down in "stair rods". I like that. Holly, as you know we've had some threads here on SF concerning colloquialisms, and regional slang or turns of phrase. (It may be provincial of us, but some of us North Americans might regard the British expression stair rods as regional.) But it's very evocative & apt.

As someone who enjoys the rich (and ever-evolving) English language, your post made me smile.
 
A lovely sunny day here today. Out for breakfast with Mrs Oy then a bit of solo Tai Chi practice on a quiet part of the beach. Then home to collect the big camera and lens as I’d seen the first decent gathering of seabirds as high tide approached. Looks like breeding season is done and my fave budgies are back along the shore :)
 
Happy Saturday, July 6th, to all!
(I'm often day/date disoriented after a holiday - does that happen to you?)

When my mother's doctor gave her quick mental acuity evaluations that included asking the day and date, she was sometimes off by several days. She'd shrug when answering, saying unless she specific arrangements for a particular date, she lost track of exact days and dates.

Mom's point makes more sense to me now. Even so, I don't want to slide down that hole of disorientation, so here I am, embracing part of the habit from earliest schooldays when all submitted work had to show our names, date, and classroom number in the upper left hand corner, lest the paper be marked down. Working world: everything was dated.

Aaannyyywaaay, now that I'm oriented, I know what today will bring: Toddler grandson early today through tomorrow late afternoon. DS & DDIL are doing some serious rearranging of their household, including who will be in which bedroom. Doing that with a nursing 4 month old will be distraction enough, adding a 2-1/2 year old to the equation will make their task that much harder.

Saw DD's family last night - had a great time with them, as always. ❤️

Sounds wonderful, Oy!
 
Well even after a whole day and night in the Barn the washing isn't even nearly dry.. so I've brought it indoors, and just hung it over any surface I can find. My Treadmill has dresses hanging from it...

The rain has stopped but it's Very Windy... the South coast beaches must be horrible today.. thank goodness I don't go for another day ...

Got everything packed now...and ready to go...

Are you flying there? How long will your travel time be? So envious - Spain is a wonderful place to visit.
 
Had cancer treatment number three of six yesterday. It was on Friday rather than Thursday because of the holiday. Clinic was operating with a skeleton crew because so many employees were absent so they were nearly two hours late on my treatment. I'm half done with this process. Visit with doc in September to see how effective this has been.
