A Long Shower

This turned into one gorgeous day....so much sunshine.

It was the same old same old start to the morning.



Around 10 I decided to put Little Wonder in the shower with me and gave him a quick bath and a long rinse.  He was a perfect gentleman, and after toweling him off...just sat there while I dried his hair.  Then, I had to do a load of laundry because I used so many towels.
By late afternoon we must have been near 70 degrees.


Gary continued working on his raised beds.

I made myself go for another trike ride....have to get in a groove and this time I went down a different road.  Having a ball finding music for these short videos.  I love Jack Johnson.
The home stretch.

Dinner was an instant replay.
So much good light....




Night all.

Almost forgot!  Kathy sent me a photo of Buddy and Cotton taking it easy this morning.

Lots of Rain, Thunder and Lightning

Today I got up before 7 and the sunrise was beautiful.

Last night we got all kinds of warnings on my phone for heavy rain and lightning.  It was pretty wild out there and everything was wet this morning.



I went back in the house and had the usual routine with Little Wonder and Sidney.




I had a small burst of energy....did some laundry, changed the sheets, started cleaning out a closet 


and went for a trike ride.

At one I was down at the library for bridge.  Came in third.  It was Andrea's birthday and Ann made her a delicious cake.
Back home at 4:30.  Fortunately I had made a batch of sauce and meatballs before leaving.
Check out these strawberries ....they are really starting to grow.
 I saw a comment the other day that really cracked me up.
"Someone told me to put horse manure on my strawberries and I'll never do that again.  I'm sticking to whipped cream."
I never remember the name of this plant, but the blossoms are showing up all over the place




Gary was putting grass clippings on his raised beds....the onions and garlic are taking off.


After the daffodils, the tulips are going to appear.
Pasta and salad for dinner.


I need a nap.
Night all.

And That's A Wrap

We had a high of 75 with lots of sunshine today.  Jenny and Scott stopped up this morning to drop off this electric massage thingy that I am going to try.  They left for a few days in Florida....visiting Scott's Dad. 


It was only a 2 1/2 hour flight!  Pretty amazing.
My buddies kept me company



until I had to drive into Greece for an ANOTHER APPOINTMENT.

This time....a mammogram.
Everything was fine.  I hope I do not need to have any more appointments for a long time.  So many in the past week....why all at once?

Gary has organized a neat event for June 13th.  He and his pals, that love native plants, are putting on a workshop at the Library.  They have already started getting a good response and I hope it continues.

Today he was working on the gardens in front of the house.  Our daffodils are at the max.....everywhere.




Made chicken soup and we had a simple dinner,
Sidney has now taken up residence in Little Wonder's bed next to my computer while I am posting.  That has to tick LW off.
Night all.
