Birthday lunch with Brad and Debbie at Chuck's Place

Had a fun day with Bill's brother, Brad and sister-in-law, Debbie this afternoon! It was a Birthday lunch for Brad at Chuck's Place. We also saw some other dear friends there! Then on to DQ, where we talked, laughed and caught up on family news. I bet they thought we'd never leave. Good times! I hope you all have had a great day so far!

Currently in Kinmundy, Illinois..

Morning dew on flower petals

The humidity is 100% and it's not raining, in fact the sun is out...another hot miserable day is in store for us. The dew does look beautiful on the flowers though.

 

It's this hot today

 

Remembering the Eclipse of 2017

Six years ago today...total solar eclipse! We went to Kentucky and stayed with my brother, Kent. This is the actual photo I took at totality. We went to a farm of one of Kent's friends and had a pizza party! What a great memory!

 

Foggy Morning in Kinmundy town

Very foggy this morning and like a sauna out there already!

 

Wooden garland

It's been so darned hot today, the temp. is 92, heat index 101at the moment. I needed something to do inside, so, I had some wooden ornaments I got out of the sale bin the other day. Yes, they are for Valentine's day, but I glued them together and painted them and made a garland. I just hung it up to take a picture, but I don't think it looks too bad. My kitchen is dark and light green with red details. Anyway, using those colors, everything I make to use in there looks like Christmas.. Now I need to water my poor thirsty plants and fill the hummingbird feeder yet again. Have a good evening all!

 

What a Beautiful day!

What a beautiful day, low 70's, a slight breeze and me in my hammock with a Dr. Pepper and a book. Can't get much better than this!

Supper with the World Color Press Ladies

 

Good food with good friends at Applebee's tonight! Enjoyed a fun evening with some World Color Press ladies. Always enjoy catching up and reminiscing about all the years we worked together! Ahhhh, the stories!!!

 

Crazy birds

The hummingbirds have just gone nuts today. There was 6 of them on one feeder and two more trying to get on it! They have been zipping around all day. Love watching them!

Steve and son

Is this a great photo or what!? Father and son sharing their talent.

 

 

Lunch with Linda and Judy

Had lunch at TGIF with my dear friends Linda Miselbrook and Judy Gordon.  I have been friends with these ladies since grade school.  We have been through good times and bad and it was such a joy to spend the whole day with them again.  It has been too long!

Cobb Egg Salad....it's what's for lunch!

Birthday celebration

Bill says thank you for all of the birthday wishes! We had a great day. We went to Chuck's Place for lunch with Bill's brother. Steve and sister-in-law, Jeannie. Then we stopped by the nursing home to see Bill's mom, bless her little heart. Last stop was DQ for a sundae. Just had cake and watching Good Omens 2. Life is good!
