Not the greatest summer…
It hasn't been the worst summer, I supposed, but not so great. The good news is that I'm now covered by health insurance again, but it's a fairly rotten policy with an obscene deductible. Plus of course all the other stuff happening this summer...I'm hoping the fall will bring brighter days. Meanwhile...I did get to the fair two times, even though it was ridiculously hot. That's a good thing, that the weather isn't unbearably hot, finally, after so many sweltering weeks. Anyway...Kevin's birthday dinner way back on August 4th was delightful and fun and a good time was had by all. I went to...

Just one picture
I realize that this photo is up above in the banner, but really, it's one of my favorites. One of the first nighttime photos with my new phone. I might even print it out and frame it. Many things...
June, in July
June 11th, to be exact. I was up pretty early (for me), enjoying the morning and the darling kitties who were also enjoying the morning. It's usually Lester who is posing for the camera while Riley...
Alive!
I lived through my surgery, yay for that! Gee, it's been way over a week since it happened. Much has happened, but not so much. First - two days before my surgery, June 22nd, Les Paul and Riley were...
No high heels!
Jeez, where has the month gone? Well, oing yard work. Lots of yard work. It's 6:18 a.m. right now and we have to leave at 7:30 for my torn meniscus surgery. It's so lovely and quiet at this time of...
DON’T BE DUMB. plus beautiful orchid blooms
Don't be dumb, that's me talking to me. You can do whatever you want, but I, personally, I'm trying like crazy to not be dumb. So far it's not working out super great. It's all about my dumb knee...
the rest of May
A good moon photo! I'm excited to take more moon photos with this new phone. Sunday May 30th we had a little get-together for my birthday and then we sat down by the water where it was chilly! This...
More May Stuff
It suddenly got super hot around here but it cools off at night which is great. I have photos from the end of May, but these are mostly from May 22nd, after Kevin and I took that lovely kayak trip....
May, quickly slipping away…
How did that happen? It felt like mid-summer with temps soaring high into the 80s but it's suddenly cooling off a bit, now that June is almost upon us. On May 20th we were down at the dock and a...
Early birthday morning
I woke up at 5:50 this morning, and without my glasses on I could just make out the rising sun and decided to get up and go outside and look at it. Because it's my birthday, I thought it would be a...
