Some pictures - bathtubs to perennials



My son, Jil, has done such a beautiful job with pictures of Epril and his Filipino hometown, Jasaan. He sometimes walks and takes pictures while he's out. Or videos. Well, I didn't walk too far, but thought the pictures taken show some things that are around us. The picture of the hibiscus doesn't show it off as well as I'd wanted, the lilies are pretty much at their peak or over their peak.

Two pictures of Gracie - one in Paul's lap in the kitchen. . .you can see the deck outside. The other picture looks like Gracie is laughing, but she's panting. Kinda hot. The distant deck picture shows the umbrella in its "sleep mode." Also the hummingbird feeder.

The shot of "the dogs' circle" has been a main subject in our lives, if you get the idea. Or the scoop on it. Yuck. You can also see the circle in the back of the picture of the lilies. It's quite close to our house.


Finally - the bathtub is in! And you can run water in it, and down to the cellar to a pail. (So it's hooked up, but it isn't. Pretty soon, Paul will not let me use the water. Good thing I did a wash already. And it's time to put it in the dryer, so I'm all set!


I went to Curves again today. It's not a bad trip - hardly any lights, and smooth sailing - between 40mph and 60mph. 10 miles almost exactly.


We also had lunch at our usual Thursday lunch spot. Lue was there, but Greta was in the vets getting the operation done that Gracie had done. She'll be coming home at 5, when Lue gets off work. Greta has started her obedience classes at Petsmart. She's had at least three of them.


Gracie will not be in Greta's class because she'll be in a beginners' class rather than a puppy class since she's over six months old. We had a large table for lunch because we had a surprise visit from Barb, Ryan, Megan and their cousin, Ashley. They came up last night - a six hour trip - to see Barb's dad. He's going back to Florida soon. Ruth was at lunch with us also also. We hadn't seen her in a long time. We've been busy on Thursdays lately. It was good to see her and Sharon, Lue's sister also. So there were eight of us.
















Doesn't it look like Gracie's laughing?























Somehow I try to make paragraphs so it's easier to read all this, but they seem to just disappear into one long one. Sorry about that. When I'm typing this, this is at the end. Hope it appears that way in the posting. We'll see. Nope. Not in the Preview! Darn. . . Son of a gun - it worked after it was published. Now why would they have a preview that wasn't a preview??? If you get my meaning. . .


Guess that's all for now. How're things goin' in your neck o' the woods?
