Last weekend of summer. Weather was beautiful today. A little humid, but oh so nice.
Went to church and then started to get a migraine headache. Took some aspirin and relaxed,
and then felt better after awhile. Figure I must have been getting dehydrated since I forgot to
take my water bottle to church with me. That is the only thing that I can think of that caused it.
Took the dog to the river and enjoyed playing fetch there, then walked through and old town.
Just a lovely day overall. Hope you ladies had a great Sunday too. Wishing you an even better
Monday!
