Finding the Scale!

 Finding the Scale!

 

Moved my computer to the office and out of the living room today because it is easier to cool that small office compared to the LR. Anyway, had to move some junk around to make room for the two dogs and managed to find the scales. Dang! Tempted to throw it in the trash bin, but guess it would not change the situation any. The old woman needs to scale back on giving in to the munchies. Some extra exercise would definitely help, too! Chasing chickens might be good cardio, but it won’t take off any pounds.

 

Had forgotten how much stuff is packed into this little room. Have a nice wagon in here that Jennifer got for me. Moved the shop vac to Hanan’s room, but may take it to the shop sometime in the near future. Got out and mowed a tiny bit over the lines from the gray water sources. Brought the two batteries in and recharged them so that they would be completely charged the next time a wild hair hits me to do any mowing or trimming of the grass.

 

We had the most beautiful clouds early this morning when the chickens were released. It was not really cool, but not hot either. Was so in hopes that something would stir up some rain. Then the clouds dissipated until they have slowly returned now at eight in the evening. Better to see some than none!

 

Have pretty well stayed off the computer except to keep up with the two games that interest me. Read my emails and then got busy around here. Will have to clean the living room good tomorrow and maybe decide what to do to make these dogs happy. They think we need to be in there so they can look out the windows. These two little cooling units can’t compete with the heat on that side of the house. And with only two or three more weeks of bad heat left, not sure if a new AC unit would be worth it.

 

Sterling is still not doing all that great, but it makes me wonder if he can’t hire this lady who has been living with them to take care of Jacqui while he is taking this powerful medicine. He says it makes him dizzy and unsteady on his feet. Can’t see him leaning over her and falling down being a good way to take care of either of them! Will talk to him tomorrow and make a suggestion. Really hate for him to drive her to the hospital like this, but he thinks he just won’t take the meds that day. Shaking my head. His son Terry Gene lives close enough to take her and help him. Hmm.

 

The bulletin boards in my office are covered with pictures of my family from birth on through having children of their own. So many beautiful blessings in those lives. Our days are never so full that they cannot be enlarged by loving thoughts and memories. Of all the blessings God has given us, our children, mates, friends, family make our lives matter even more. We know He gave them to us to teach us to love. May we never disappoint Him in that.

 

Rest well, my friends. You are loved.
