Good afternoon. Here we are gathering clouds for an afternoon and evening of possible thunder storms. The temperature is 88 degrees and we, at the moment, have mostly sunshine. It is hot and humid so nice to be indoors where it is cool and comfy. However, the wind just came up and is blowing pretty good by Tennessee standards so maybe the storm is getting close.

The cute puppy above is named Roxie. I am not sure of her breed, but I think a shiih-tzu . She is a sweet dog, friendly and loves to be petted and played with, go on long walks and meet other people and their dogs. She shares her home with a cat and a Hedge Hog named Jack. The cat is fairly new and so far appreciates being left alone. As far as I know its’ name is “CAT”. She spends most of her time under the bed, coming out to eat when no one else is around. Since Mom and Dad are at work all day the animals are left alone and seem to get along just fine. All are healthy and happy when their human parents return home.

Today Tina is off so she has painted a corner of the kitchen and replaced a drawer front to the island. Such a busy girl. I haven’t been as industries, only cleaning up the kitchen and doing the normal household daily chores. We enjoyed our morning coffee watching the news and birds and squirrels who are so entertaining. I haven’t seen the chipmunk so far today. But he might be staying out of the heat or else has been out and about when I haven’t been watching. Right now there is no animals out there at all so that is a telltale sign that the storm is near.

have a marvelous, productive, adventurous, cheerful, fun, kind, positive and blessed Monday
