Hello Sheba, I hope you are well and your sinus not giving you any problems .
I am not sorry to see the end of July. I am welcoming August.
How is your nephew’s recovery going?

Hubby took a few days off and went to visit his mom. Spend some days with her. I stayed behind so he could have the time with her.
While he was away the air-conditioning decided to stop working. Two days later the fire alarms goes off in the middle of the night. Once one goes off, they all do. There’s one that talks, it says fire, fire. Looked all over couldn’t find any fire. Took a broom brushed it off in case it was some dust, then a banged on it with the broom handle and it stopped, 😆.

Coming back home, hubby checked his flight and both flights were on schedule. After getting into St. Paul, Minneapolis to take his second flight, they canceled it. It took him three hours in line to find out he couldn’t get a flight back to Tampa. The software update had thrown a loop in his trip. It took 4 nights and three days to get a flight out of there.

Well 4 days after being back, he came down with Covid-19 for the first time.
He is taking his meds and following doctors orders.
He has diabetes II, and had heart surgery 2 years ago.

Now it’s my turn to take care of him after he took good care of me.
I am trying not to become a victim of Covid-19. I’m wearing my mask, cleaning and washing everything.

Take care Sheba 🌹🌹

Here’s looking at you. 😎

Goodbye July. 🎈

Peace Out Peeps enjoy your evening and keep cool. 😎😎

Way to go USA Women’s gymnastic team!!🥇 And the men’s!🥉 That’s all I’ve had on the TV this week, nice change from the game/reality shows on all summer. I am really enjoying all the athletes. Ledecky just won the 1500m.🥇 Wow, that’s a lot of swimming, I can cook my dinner in less time.

Hot here, too, low 90’s.🔥 Haven’t lost electricity, yet. We finally got a little rain yesterday. My sis and your old neighbor are looking at 112+ in Palm Springs. I was there once and it was the only place that I’ve ever gotten out of the sun by the pool. My husband came back from golfing and couldn’t find me at the pool because he never thought to look under an umbrella.😂

Thanks for the Wham song yesterday, it’s a good one. Happy August, I know what’s coming up!🎈🎂 Fingers crossed your electric stays on and you and Poppy are comfy.🤗💖

Just doing Aldi’s today. Hubby asks for ice cream and our freezer is emptied. I do have a wa y to bring it to him and it arrives frozen.

Our A/C along with electrical can go up and over $500/month if we aren’t careful. When I leave I put the temp at 81 or higher. When I leave and will not return within a six hour window, I set the dehumidistat to on and set it to 60 degrees and the thermostat to 80 degrees. I also set the system switch to cool. I used to have the thermostat at 65 degrees. No longer. I adore a cool house, but in this case I can live with temps in the low 70s. I assume you lost electrical due to everyone using the A/C, You may want to go up a bit before noon and then start going down around 4 pm or later. This should help to conserve the electrical elements and if most people do this it would save quite a bit on wear and tear.

Heat and humidity is still an issue here as well. Temp is over 107 and still climbing. I have started contacting contractors . There is much to be done before hubby returns. Have a great afternoon and evening. By the way, if you wish to feed the raccoon, try watermelon, grapes, cherries, etc.. Also fresh veggies. Some of the raccoons wash their food prior to eating. Take care and have a beautiful day.

@kittengirl,

Good day Kitten wishing you all the best. 😎🎈

Over the Rainbow
Song by Judy Garland

Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
There’s a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow
Skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true
Someday I’ll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops
That’s where you’ll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh, why can’t I?
Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh, why can’t I?
If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow
Why, oh why can’t I?

warm then now even warmer and will get hotter. Yikes!
