"Gma" -- My furnace came on for a few minutes this morning.
We did have the air on the day it hit 106 in Sioux City, just because we didn't want to come home to a hot house after being at the soccer game. I hope your Target order comes through. I hate second guessing the USPS these days. Good luck! I have red sandals but wear a lot of red, white, navy, and black. I also bought some navy ones this spring.I have a farewell - retirement dinner tonight for one of our bell ringers. She and her husband are gone during the winter months and she decided it was time to drop out. I need to vacuum fur bunnies big time so better get to it. These two are just like have two little boys; they roll around and wrestle on the floor, then go their separate ways.

Hope you all enjoy your day and may it be a sunny one!


The really frustrating part is when I type letters are missing in each word and I really have to watch it closely instead of just typing as usual.

We need to shampoo the area rugs too, but it won't be this weekend. I'll bet Jack always looks forward to Fridays! We don't audition for the bell choir; anyone who can count to 4 can play but most have some musical background of some sort. There aren't many who want to commit to practicing once a week and then play in front of the congregation. One always thinks that everyone is watching only them but that's not so. We play in a U shaped pattern, from the smallest bells at one end to the biggest on the other end. They are the busiest ringers and most fun to watch. All of the grandchildren had their last day of school yesterday. Maddy and Zowie are sad while Ian and Kolby were ready! We used to collect the high school books before finals also. With the current round of students it wouldn't make any difference if they had a book or not. Kids who take notes and get good grades do well on the finals regardless.
Cecil is having a long snooze also for he is still in the bedroom with the door closed and it is now 11 of the clock. I feel great today and ready to tackle anything that comes my way. I did get that nice round seedless watermelon cut up in cubes and in a large plastic bowl in the fridge and the pineapple cut into spears into a tall plastic container. We had some of the watermelon for dessert and it is a really good melon. I am going to have some with my lunch today. I am not going to do those ribs this day in my smoker for Will said that the market is doing ribs for the holiday weekend. They use their smoker and do that for holidays and they don’t cost any more smoked than they do fresh so we will get a rack from them.
Big really important things don't get forgotten it seems. I have learned to be very flexible during the years and don't even trip about such things for I also forget things. 
Sounds like fun! I made a corn salad and a Snickers salad. The corn salad is just two cans of corn, green pepper and onion to taste, grated Cheddar cheese, and enough mayo to moisten. Before serving crush some chili cheese Fritos and mix in. The granddaughters both like it while Ian always asks for the Snickers salad.
on losing another pound! WOW! 41 pounds gone forever! Being able to paint your toes is great! I'm not very neat and spend more time trying to erase the excess polish than the actual painting. Let us know how the Listerine works on your feet. Bob's pickup has bigger wheels than the last one so I feel like I fall out. There is a running board and I use the handle on the inside to get up and in. I am not graceful about either! I buy small containers of cut-up melon; I love watermelon while Bob isn't too fond of it. He likes cantaloupe so I buy the whole melon, or sometimes just a half.
I enjoy working out with my trainer and she also teaches one of my water aerobics classes. I get 3 sessions with her every 6 months or so to keep on track and improving. I'm glad you got your leggos.
Bob ran a hose to the pump in there and Sonny must have thought he needed to have a look. There is a crawl space that goes back under the steps and behind the furnace wall in the next room. It's the first place to get wet. Boy did Sonny howl when I called him this morning! His tail looked like a rat's tail, his paws and underside were wet from front to back. I tried to dry him with a towel but he wanted no part of that. He did lay on the towel and licked 'n licked 'n licked.
Are you sewing on something special at Sandy's? A picnic would be fun. The official corn salad recipe calls for red and green peppers. Someone told me they buy the Mexicorn (?) that has the peppers in it. If you want the official recipe I can send it to you.
