A day at home, except for Mass this afternoon.   It was good.   I am quite sore, so took a nap this afternoon.   I am going to BEG Dr. Fehrman to figure out a way to make that shoulder stop hurting.   I think the shot will do it.   I can cope with arthritis, but this is awful.

I am finally feeling a bit creative and am working on two projects.   Yea.   Nice to be enthusiastic about something.    Perhaps because the big OUTSIDE projects are completed.   I know that Mr. Nicky will be glad of that.   No leaving him at least until August.

I hope it rains a bit tonight, otherwise, I am going to have to do a bit of watering on the berm, patio and the tomato plants.

Tomorrow uncommitted too.   Yea for me.

Today was warm but breezy.   This afternoon, it looked like it might rain, but it held off or passed over and we were able to have our neighborhood gathering at 4ish.   Had a nice group several families.   To bad the other streets don't join us.  

Bob and Peggy told me that my Black Pig wall hanging is now up at the Black Pig Restaurant in Sheboygan.   Got to get there to see it.

Next week, I am "hosting" a Margarita party with the tequila, margarita mix, chips and dips and serving dishes that I got in a raffle a couple of months ago.    Everybody seemed excited about it.   A couple of people will be gone, but I do have to let Alison know and perhaps the word will spread.

I had my dentist appointment today, for cleaning.   All went well.  my gums and teeth all look good.

I spent a part of the afternoon finishing up a couple of craft projects.   I am finally feeling a bit creative again.  It has been a while. I have felt rather empty.

The railroad has had Pleasant View and Highland roads blocked off as they replaced the tracks over the road.   They closed them off on Monday saying they would be done by Friday.   Today they poured the blacktop, so it looks like they have made their goal.   Don't know whether the sidewalk will be done, but Nicky and I can make it on the street if we have to.   We like to go through the park and then come back down Highland and turn back into Tallgrass.

I don't have any appointments for the next three days.   I am SO happy,  the past three weeks have been just too full.

After a long successful Bloomsday, I am glad to be home.

Everything went well.   We did not finish the book again, but finished up the last hour with Molly's Soliloquy.   A good turnout, but still a couple of hours that I had to fill in for.    24 hours is a long day.   I did take two naps.   One of the artist, Ray, let me use his armchair and ottoman to rest.  Thank you, Ray.    An enthusiastic group of readers and listeners at least.\

Got home about 12:45AM and went to bed.   Missed my doggy.   I woke up at 4 and turned on the news to get the weather.   Next thing I knew it was 8AM.   I got up then and went to pick up my Nicky at 9AM.   When I called Chris she said that she wasn't going to give him back.   They really like him because he is so sweet, when he is not scared.   When I got there, he again dragged me to the car and hid in the back seat until we got home.   I feel so blessed to have him for a good companion.

Went to Joan Kramer's for a reflexology treatment.   Felt so good.   After that and a good night's sleep, I will be as good as new.

Until tomorrow.

Talked to Jeff.   Mom seems to be almost recovered from her bout with nausea and confusion.   Med adjustments.   Glad we got on that.

A whole day at home.

Nicky and I went out for our first walk in the rain.   It was kind of misting but not a pleasant walk.   Nicky did not do his "duty."   So later in the morning, after the rain had stopped, we went again.   It had turned into a muggy hottish day.   

I baked Barm Brac and fixed a good pork/sweet potato fry/mushy pea, lunch.  

Mostly ready for Bloomsday.  Show up ANY time during the 24 hours of Tuesday.   Just to listen, or to read.

Family alert.  Cousins Jay and Raina Cool will be visiting from 6/26 - 6/27..   Brat Fry at my house on Saturday starting at 4PM.
