June 29, brother Dave would have turned 76 today

TERRY
I will not see Terry for a couple of days as her daughter Kim is here.  I will visit her again Wednesday.  I will call the Dr. today as I have a question for him.  I will call her perhaps late in the afternoon as Kim will visit her between AM and PM therapy.  If I hear anything I will post but that most likely will not be the case.
Dave a great brother, a wonderful man and a talented guy would have been 76 today.
Your birthday will not be celebrated here but maybe with Jesus!!!
May your room in heaven be one of the BEST




Success with the jam.  I was able to make 9 jars of rhubarb jam and 9 larger jars of rhubarb/raspberry and all 18 sealed!  I don't know if it was beginners luck or skill but happy that they all turned out.  The raspberries in the jam were about half backyard berries and half store bought berries.  All the rhubarb came from the garden.  Now I have a problem, what do I do with all the jam?

Oh my the rain came!  I just emptied the gauge and it read 2.35". That should hold the flowers and lawn through this hot spell that we are looking at.  After today reaches 85 I see high 80s to low 90s for at least the next 10 days.  As I read that I doubt the rain will hold things up for that long.  BUT it looks like maybe some rain during those days.

Travis and I have arrived at our first recording in our weight loss contest and "for sure" I am buying breakfast this morning.  For the first day in the last six I am up a bit this morning so my % of weight loss for the last two weeks is just below 2%.  I know Travis will do much better so I had better bring cash or the checkbook this morning as the cafe we are going to does not accept credit cards.

With the heat not so much this morning I may get a couple of those windows finished.  There is just a bit of trim left but I need to remove both the upper and lower sash and I do not want to do that when we have 90 degree temps.

Well Travis is here and we are ready to go have breakfast!

Well I am back from breakfast with Travis and I think I just shot myself in the foot!!!
Before anyone makes a judgment about my choice pretty much every menu item at the COFFEE CUP is this size.  I would say there are about 3 potatoes on the plate!  So here I am trying to lose weight and I go out and eat like this, oh my gosh, my foot hurts from the self inflicted shot!  Well there is a bit of redeeming grace here as I did bring at least half of it home.  BUT the question is will I end up eating it as it could be breakfast for the next two days.

Coffe at the "Coffee Cup" means no FP this morning.  It may not be a good morning.  I will not see Terry today but will call her after her therapy this afternoon.  I hope her visit with daughter Kim goes well.  It looks like there will be a little more rain before all is over.  Darn, I should have reseeded the lawn as that would have been perfect.  I guess you can't win them all.
