Hello all,

I have already worked out....now on to day of house and dog cleaning. Whoohooo!

We have had sun and what we call heat for days. It was supposed to continue for many days to come. But, apparently the 70% without air-conditioning were successful in their rain dance because it rained last night. (At first I thought tho whole neighborhood aggressively watered)

DianeO, my outside eyes see enjoyment of baked goods and you getting back onto your usual track. That is something to be celebrated. No need for shame.

Cecily. HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY

All of us....have a great Sat.

Shel

Greetings Saturday Celebrators

149.5 so thats something to celebrate. And celebrate that its cool and overcast here. Not like Redding, 150 miles inland which is burning horribly. Our area is organizing some aid and I think I will go donate. What they need are these certain air masks plus gift cards. Guess I will get some Safeway gift cards.

Diane O, I am just now catching up on your DH eye issues. How scary. Glad you were able to make the trip with relative ease and had a nice place to stay. You gotta bless those volunteers even if they are cookie pushers. At least you know now that if you go back to take a few Quest bars. Hoping DH eye issue heals up and glad it was discovered by thoughtful shrink.

Cecily, by my calculations you are now free. Hope you are enjoying some peace and quiet. I pity the person Aunt Crabby is sitting by on some airplane.

I ate two more of my "oyster friends" last night. Still good as leftovers but two is all I can eat. Vive la sleeve!!!!

Yesterday I got a couple of cotton tee shirts that are fancy looking so I have something to wear at hot dog shows next weekend. (no, not hotdog shows!).

Dogs at the beach or lake are one of the best things in life. Around here they are mostly allowed and can run loose as long as they are voice controlled. I used to let my old dogs run as I could catch them but the ones I have now are pretty unreliable so no dice. There is one beach where people often ride horses and the parking allows for horse trailers. Sometimes loose dogs cause trouble with the horses so I have taken care to make sure my dogs are calm around them. But need to be careful after the lady got a shark bit in ankle deep water. I wouldn't want my dog to get bitten. They don't like to get in the water much anyway.

Shel, hope its a hike day for you. Don't sit on any cactus.

Carbon, I have lost track of your guests. Do you still have some? When does vacation begin for you!!??!!

Ann, I am glad to hear you are mediating. I have been advised to do that but can't seem to clear out my busy brain. But I did by a pad lock for a gym locker so I can do the hot tub at the health club. Gotta dig up my bathing suit and a large towel so my lava lamp legs are not on display.

A friend is coming over this afternoon for computer help from DH, who is the computer guru in our social circle. He got a call early this morning from another friend who couldn't send email. DH grouses about this stuff but I think he really enjoys being the guru. But my friend is so talkative that it takes 3 hours to do what should take 1 hour. Good thing she is really funny.

Well hard to believe but I think I have had enough coffee. Onward to find something constructive to do. Diane S

Hiking tomorrow. Apparently today is sit (or lie) on sofa day.

News out of Redding is terrible.

Just a little food porn=

These look great, but if I made them I'd probably eat them all...

Great looking crackers. I would eat them ALL myself. Bet they were a big hit. ds
