It must have been the weekend to have chicken, Tim. We put one on the rotisserie for Saturday night. We had fresh beets with the greens, a garden salad, and corn on the cob. We didn't have any company, just the two of us, but it's alright because now we have some pretty good leftovers.
Good luck with your test results. Goods news is always a welcomed relief.
We had no idea of the severe weather below us until last night. I thought of you right away, Darrell. The pictures I've seem look disastrous, and I'm glad you're alright and had a safe haven you could go to. There sure has been some awful weather this year. Let's hope that the hurricane season is a meek one and everyone stays safe.
Peg, you sure have been the busy one. You must be feeling pretty good about how much you have managed to accomplish. Sometimes we end up doing a lot better than we thought we ever could. It might take a little longer, but it still feels so good when things get done.
Not much going on around here. The weather has been pretty decent in our area lately, but I say that with my fingers crossed.
Two of the grandchildren are in soccer leagues this summer, so when it isn't too hot and humid, we try to get to their games.
I've been doing battle with a chipmunk who keeps emptying the bird feeder. This has been ongoing on for years, but my husband thinks he has come up with a new idea that might work. I hope so, but I know the wild turkeys will be disappointed because they usually clean up the lawn after the chipmunk dumps the feeder. This chipmunk must have enough food in storage to feed every chipmunk in the entire state. Sooner or later, we will get the best of him.
Mom has been doing very well at BINGO. She wins almost every time she plays, and it is usually a sizable amount. I haven't been going with her this year. I think if I went now and she stopped wining, she might think I am a jinx, so I think it's best that I stay home for now. She baked a chocolate cake with peanut butter frosting, (my favorite), the other day, and she brought us some to have. I made a blueberry coffeecake this weekend, so I sent her home with some of that this morning. This seems to be working out well for BOTH of us.
We are leaving tomorrow night for a few extra days off in the mountains. Our daughter and her girls will be joining us for a night, and I wouldn't be surprised if Mom came up for a night or two as well. Good food, good times, and lots of happy memories to be made. Hmmm....I wonder if Mom will bring up a
cake.
We don't go to the fireworks display any more. We usually stay home on the 4th and watch 'A Capital Fourth' on PBS. It's usually a pretty good show, and there are plenty of fireworks at the end.
Happy 4th of July birthday, Bev. They really do your birthday in a BIG way.
Take care everyone and have a happy and safe Fourth of July.

. June gets one more day and it's "outta here". Looking at my front porch in the shade it's 100* already and rising, not to mention the heat index. I'm rethinking my weekend plans right now. Please be careful if you have this awful weather in your area. But have a great weekend to the extent that you can.
