A wonderful Saturday.

Went to the City with Bart and Barb and Marlies as I said.

Should never go with them.   I spend money:)   Got some clothes and fabric.

Then a blessing occurred.   Scott, one of Bart's friends from FIRST GRADE, was driving through on his way from California to Missouri and met us at the Cheesecake Factory in OC.    I have not seen him since he came to Green Bay when Bart and Barb lived there.  It was SO good to spend some time with him and it was so special for Bart.   I wish you could have seen his face when Scott walked in. 
Special special day.

The heat is back.  Actually, it is not as bad as it was earlier this month.    From what I hear, mid September begins some relief.

Bart and I did several errands this morning.   We took his doggies for their grooming.   They really needed it earlier, but you know what the last couple weeks have been.   Bart went to pick them up this evening and Barbara said they look so happy.   Of course,  Leo always gets very amorous with Lily after the grooming, so she is going to have to be on her guard:)

I picked up a Pike Pass.  Now if I go to the "City" (Oklahoma City) or into Texas, I will not have to be scrambling for money at the toll stations.  Not that I go very often, but there is no expiration date.

Tomorrow I am going to the "City" with Barb, Bart and Marleis.   Should be a nice day.  So Nate came to mow tonight and I will skip a cleaning.  Frankly, I am not all that dirty anyway.

The heat is returning.  Not to the extent that it was three weeks ago, but still hot.

I was home all day today.   Worked on quilting, CWI, and writing.   And I was busy.   The evenings get long but that is OK.  I call people if I get too lonely.  Talked to Nora tonight.

Have a good sleep.   Bart and I have errands in the morning.

A lovely day.

I went with Bart this afternoon to have his stimulator worked on.  It has not been charging properly and he has been having more pain than usual.  The  "team" they sent down was able to get him up an running again.    So a successful meeting.  We were afraid that the battery could not recharge and that he would have to have a new battery installed which involves surgery , albeit, minor surgery, but surgery none the less.

Am working on hand assembling a quilt for my bed.  It will take FOREVER.  Which is not a bad project for Now.

Talked to Richard and Brenda and then Jeff so was not so lonely tonight.

Love you all

Another very pleasant day, weatherwise.   Nicky and I had the nicest walk this morning.   It was in the low 60s so felt really good.

Didn't talk to a single sole today.   I kept busy.   Did some writing and reading and sewing.   Watered part of the front lawn this morning.  The weather people keep saying we have slight chances of rain but nothing has come though since Thursday night.   That was a nice rain, anyway.

This is a very quiet week.   School is in full swing in Lawton, so Nicky and I see kids waiting for the school buses in the morning again.

Another gorgeous day in Oklahoma.   The high temperature was in the high 80s and it was not humid.  We are supposed to have some rain tomorrow night.    The grass is nice and green right now.   It was in the low 60s when Nicky and I took our morning walk.   I loved that.

I went to Mass and stopped for donuts and company afterwards in the hall.   They always have that and I have made some friends there.   I am trying to build my place here.   It is better as time goes on.

I spent the day sewing and working on my book.    I finally feel like doing somethings creative writing wise.

Hope you are all well.

Love you
