Ruth ~ And I thought it was me that was using all the toilet paper!     I am so glad that my two girls don't do this.  Really all they do to mess things up is to scatter the throw rugs.  And of course, cat hair but it isn't that bad except on my black bathroom carpet.  Don't ever put black carpet in your bathroom...that's a no no!

I am all ready to leave to see my ENT doctor.  I get the lovely scope down my throat again to see if there is any new growths starting.  I sure hope this isn't an every 6 weeks things.  My $$$$ are stretched to the max now.  I was going to ask Ivalou to go with me and then, of course, eat lunch out.  But I have plenty to eat here at home and I have already paid for it. 

I am tired this morning.  Seems I fought the bed all night long.  Too hot...too cold.  I wish I would find the happy medium. 

Hi everyone.  Just back from coffee and Pat left for the senior center to work on the exercise machines and then has a doctor's appointment so I have the house to myself all morning.  Will just work on some projects and take it easy today.  I seem to do a lot of that these days but enjoy not being rushed.  This evening our church friends are meeting at Red Lobster for our monthly birthday celebration, which we haven't had for a couple of months.  I think we have two birthdays to celebrate.  We use any excuse to get together and dine out. 

Etta Sue, sure you are not looking forward to your test but hopefully it will show everything is fine now. 

Hi Samatha and thanks for reminding me to also express Happy Birthday wishes to Ruth Ann and Pinkie.

Pat, hope things settle down for you for awhile.  You are one busy lady.

Al, hope Marbeth heals quickly.  It was nice of you to stay with her and have your own service of worship yesterday.

Hi Jane, I join with you in your well written words to Jeannine as neither can I imagine the stress of her situation.  Jeannine, it sounds like it is going to take Michael quite awhile to recover from his operation.

Marilyn, it sounds like you will have a busy week at your church.

Judy, you are having the opportunity to see something most of us well never see with the baby hawk.  The last two weeks I have been watching a program on the History Channel about the Canadian Ice Truckers.  It is very interesting and such a dangerous job.  It has high pay but very high risk as well.

Hi Ruth.  When does your school begin again.  It is only 2 or 3 more weeks before our school system will be back for the fall season and the buses will be running again and the traffic becomes much worse. 

Janet, glad you are getting some help with Beth's desk.  We have a group of men (and perhaps women) in our church that helps members with needs like that as well as bigger projects.  I expect to get the August Readers Digest from a friend gave me so will look for that article.  He has given me the last two issues when he was had read them.  He always jokes that he has to read each issue to see what new ailment he knows he has after reading about it.

Liz, unfortunately children sometimes can't see what is really happening with their parents and perhaps that is the situation with your granddaughter.  Does she go away for the college term or stay at home?  I always stayed at home while attending college and think I probably missed a part of the college experience in being able to participate in various activities.  However, I have no complaint as was able to get the training I needed.

Carol, I saw that you had 97 degree temps in the Denver area.  We had a relatively cool day yesterday with close to two inches of very nice rain.  It looks like the sun will be shining here today.  The yardmen are due this afternoon and the grass really needs mowing again as has really grown and is very green.

Hope this is a good day for everyone.

Quite a workout at the pool today - I float so much lower than everyone & drink in water too often & was complaining about it when someone said that I had more muscle - oh, sure.  I don't think so.     The only other one who floats like I do is a much younger & more fit guy, so this has gone to my head 

Liz:  I didn't think of Amanda as being "bad", only she is at the age when there is a lot of drop-outs from church.  They return when they have their first child.  I am praying much the same as you for some of my family as well.  Pastor Al will keep us going on this track

Pat:  You have really been busy with SN.  Great job!

Judy B:  Love how you are teaching your children to love nature.

Larry:  I should not have looked at the 7 day forecast as it just makes me mad.  No rain.  Hot and dry. 

Carol

I am so sorry.  I am about 24 hours late in posting the new week for Thoughts. 

My only excuse is I am getting old (but aren't we all?)

The new week is here.
