Good afternoon Sheba 😊 Here’s wishing you success on your project.
I had forgotten that today is Friday, was reading your post and realized to myself. Perhaps I need another cup of coffee 😆.

Getting catfish and making vegetables for dinner tonight 😋. I have a little of broccoli, green beans, snow peas, carrots and sweet potatoes. They way hubby will have left overs for lunch tomorrow.

Wishing you, your hubby and Poppy a beautiful cool weekend.
Take care Sheba 🌹

Hi, so glad your hand wasn’t burn much, and that is better now.
As for me, I’m a pro at burning myself in the kitchen 😀.
Almost every time I bake something, or cook in large pots. It could be as little as just leaning against or touching the side of a hot pot, or actually touch some parts of the oven. That’s why I have plenty Oleo Vera, both inside and outside of the house. It’s such a miracle plant, I also use for cuts and scraps even sores in the mouth is good for.
I will let you know how my cousin’s son is doing, pulling information out of him is like pulling teeth 😬.
Today it’s a holiday in Brazil, it’s their Independence Day.
The whole family is getting together to celebrate not only the holiday but also the cousin visiting from Portugal. They are having a huge barbecue, lots of food, music and laughter oh how I wish I could be there.

Sheba that’s a lovely confy bed, I too have a king size bed. We first got a king size bed back in 1985 before getting married 😀. A bed room set and a car. It was a Scandinavian Teak wood platform bed. Then when we moved from Virginia to Florida we purchased our first single family home in 1989, that’s when interest rates were 7.5 for mortgages. We could only afford a 1,473 sqft. house build from the ground and I was able to select the flooring, kitchen, baths etc. Because we had a king bed the headboard would go from window to window left side and right side 😆 covering part of the windows. We retained that house until 2017, we had it as a rental property after 1993 when we moved to Orlando. Our plan was to rent an apartment for the three years hubby had duty in Orlando. But rent was extremely high for apartments, that we ended up buying a Spec house. Since it was already built I wasn’t able to pick the colors, kitchen and so on. But I made up for that, we built a house in Orlando in 1999 and decided to stay as I worked in SunTrust Bank and hubby commuting from Jacksonville when his ship came back to port.
I like Autumn 🍂, it’s a beautiful time of year. Kind of like what spring does after a harsh Winter. Autumn 🍂 gives a break from the heat to enjoy the outdoors. I miss Autumn, here in Florida where I live we don’t get to have it. Today the temperature is 94, the evenings in the mid seventies.

Take Care Sheba 🌹

Good afternoon Sheba 😊
It’s a hot day here with a tiny breeze. We are still in the 90’s.

Like everything it’s going to take a while for my cousin to get over her cat. However she has her hands extremely full right now. Her one and only son whom she had at an early age had a depression/anxiety attack. He is 46 years old was in the hospital for about 10 days then released stayed in his apartment a few days which is in another state. Then came home to my cousin to be taken care of, all he does is eat and sleep. He is on medication, at one point he is all over the place, at another he just collapses. He doesn’t want to talk about his illness and is hush-hush about it.
On top of that, my other cousin who lives in Portugal is there visiting.

Making chicken stock, I’m on my third stock pot. Earlier I made lentils with Italian sausage. Using two small diced carrots, one large celery, onions and garlic and chicken stock. Also made black beans, and a pot of rice. Most likely will freeze a little of each, not the rice though. And of course the chicken stock will be frozen.

Take care Sheba 🌹

Hi Oodie, I am sorry to hear about your husband. Sending prayers he recovers well.
Right now sounds like you got things handled, keeping him warm and away from that cold vent from the air-conditioning.

Hello Sheba, I am glad you and your husband had a nice few days to enjoy the holiday.

Brazil is still in Winter, it will go into Spring when we start Autumn 🍂. They still have a kind of crazy weather. Some days are cold, some are hot. Lately there has been lots and lots of rain in the Southern part where my cousin lives.
Speaking of my cousin, unfortunately she lost her kitty cat over the weekend. He was only three years old. He had some problems with urinary infection, was given medication and was getting better. But on Saturday morning he passed on. She would often send me videos of him. My cousin and I both had a good cry over the phone.

I read first Lady Jill Biden has Covid-19, this is the second time I believe.
I am still masking up when I am out and about in crowds.

Take care Sheba 🌹

HAPPY LABOR DAY TO ALL.

@Sheba 🌻🌻🌻🌻
No problem my dear friend, don’t you worry about this. Enjoy your Labor Day weekend.

Hi Taci, I left a post for a few days back don’t know if you were able to see it.
Hope you are doing well. The hurricane was extremely mild in my area. This afternoon we had a huge thunderstorm. Blasting sounds of thunder and major lighting. Loads of rain and wind to go with the rain, go figure.
