Yes, definitely hot and humidddddd! I guess I will have to plan for some type of indoor exercise because even waiting until 8PM is not doing it. I still come in hot and drenched afterwards.

I thought blueberries were a cold/Fall weather type of berry. I always thought they were picked in the Fall.

Hope you have a terrific Thursday! Remember every time you open the refrigerator door to get a blast of cool air, you don't need to grab a bite.

Another hot day with wicked thunderstorm at around 7 PM. Went grocery shopping this morning and loaded up on fruit. I love this time of the year with all the fresh fruit.

My knee is feeling pretty good. I would really like to do another horse show in August........

Was planning on doing some painting in this house this weekend, but with it being so hot and humid out, I don't dare open any windows for any long period. So I guess I will just postpone it for a while. It can wait.

I think I will head to the river tomorrow morning with my dog. He will love the play time in the cool water. He hasn't had too much play time outdoors lately. So he will definitely enjoy it. I was planning on walking him early this morning, but the state services were spraying the sidewalks for bugs. So we were only outside for a quick bathroom break.

Tomorrow is weigh-in. Hope we both show some success. Good luck!

Went to the river this morning and played ball in the river for 30 minutes with my dog. He loved it.
Then we walked a 2 mile loop for him to dry. Later this morning, I went to the library to get/return a book. I like reading Nicholas Sparks books, but they make me cry to much. I just read too of Danielle Steel's books, but they are kind of slow and seems she kinds of repeats saying things. So I am trying a someone different, a book by Susan Wiggs called Family Tree. Next I went to the Animal Shelter to see the homeless pets, followed by the shelter thrift shop, and bought a new Exercise DVD there. Will have to use it tomorrow.

Today's weigh-in has me down 1/2 lb. Yeah! I hope you are successful too. Have a great Sunday!!

You did good! No change for me....

Getting more rain now and more for tomorrow. I think we live in a tropical rain forest!

I like books, but I'm not much into fiction stories. I read mostly instructional books. But what I do love to do, in the winter, is color. I have a few of those adult type intricate coloring books and all kinds of different colored pencils and markers. I find it very relaxing and a good way to pass the long winter nights.

Have a blessed Sunday!

We got some rain last night, and a little bit this afternoon. Felt good. My watch quit working, so I decided to get a new one. However, after getting it today, I realized I can't always see the hands on the dial. I need a digital like my last one. So I will need to find another one. Perhaps I will find one on-line. That is what I did last time.

I hope I can squeeze some time tonight for my new exercise video. I was motivated about seeing it yesterday, but feeling lazy this evening. I need to crack the whip on myself and get going.....

Hope you enjoyed your Sunday, and have a terrific Monday.

Not much happening tonight. Very tired. Too tired to take my dog to his class. I feel bad about that, but too tired to drive safely. So I will probably go to bed early too.

There was a tornado that touched ground by a nearby town last night. It must have been very scary for the people that it impacted by it. We are suppose to get storms tonight. We need the rain, so I hope it comes, but I don't want anyone to get hurt or have damage from it.

Hope you have a terrific Tuesday!

Sounds like your garden is doing good! You will be busy canning and freezing stuff.
That is good. Lots of healthy fresh vegetables. I love the summer fruits and vegetables.
Perhaps I will make a good vegetable lasagna this weekend.
Hope your knees are feeling better.

I hear the next front of rain storms will be headed our way on Thursday and Friday, so check on those vegetables tomorrow.

Have a wonderful Thursday!

Well, I had some excitement here today. I was picking peppers and my 89 year old mother-in-law came walking up to the garden. She lost her balance and fell. I couldn't pick her up with my bad knee. Thank goodness the neighbor across the street was out in his yard. I called to him and he and his sons came over and picked her up. She was in a lot of pain so I called the ambulance. She has some hip fractures. They're not sure if they will do surgery or what until the specialist sees her tomorrow. Always something!
