Just need to talk to my friends (208)

Lorita - I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you about the refrigerator. It's really annoying when they don't come through when they're supposed to.

I'm kind of impressed with the Walking With Dinosaurs show (even though I haven't seen it yet) in that they're featuring the "non A-list" dinosaurs like Pachyrhinosaurus. I'm glad they're getting their time in the sun. Like I said, I'll be binging this one for sure.

JeriLynn - I hope you guys have a great party! Or maybe it's "had" by now. 🙂

Bet'cha get more cats and/or dogs. Bet'cha.

HB - Yesterday while you were wilting in the heat, we were on the cold side, with a bit of rain. Today is better, with 70+ degrees and mostly sun.

Wow, Kathryn Leigh Scott! She looks fantastic. She really hasn't aged much at all. Maybe she's the one with the painting in the attic instead of Quentin. 😈 Thank you for sharing that article - I loved it. The one and only time I went to Comic-Con (in 2010), I briefly got to meet her and Lara Parker (Angelique). They were really nice, and not all that much taller than me. I'd say they were maybe both around 5'5.

Elton John and Motown — yes!!

I'm sorry you still have to do PT for your wrist.

Judith - I always joke that I was born ten years too early - I should have been a teen in the 1980s. The music, the clothes, etc., was all much more aligned with my likes and dislikes. I was never a hippie and never leaned in that direction, so culturally, the 1970s were not really my cup of tea. Although looking back, as a civil liberties/civil rights person, I can see that the 1970s were the high water mark.

Mint - I hear you about being a scientist. Research always appealed to me too.

Carl - I'm with you and your friend - the two of you can sit together if you want to.

Iris - I love your photos! The one of that valley is just stunning.

Nothing much going on over here. Today's my cleaning day, but since I did such a deep clean a couple of weeks ago, it's all pretty light today.

When I'm done with the cleaning I'm making deviled eggs! My thought is that we deserve a treat.

Iris - the scenery in those photos is so gorgeous. When I saw the log cabin the first thing I thought of was Lincoln Logs. The logs made up the walls just like your photo, and they had green roofs. 🙂

For some reason, the site wouldn't let me add photos to my previous post? But anyway, here's the lunch table set up and a post ceremony photo. I didn't even take any pictures after we got home. It was a fun day. Granddaughter is 27 and her daughter is 6. So, this degree has taken some commitment to accomplish. Her gift from me was $$ because who doesn't need that? And, I also promised to pay for her Masters degree journey. That will mean a little less Amazon shopping for me but I think it a worthy investment. She's my first granddaughter. She and her sister did a little jewelry shopping in my collection yesterday🤣. That was fun because I gifted them vintage pieces from my Mother, Grandmother and Aunt, along with a family history story with each piece. Her sister is about to enter the Bachelor program for Nursing, so she got my watches from my nursing school days. It was a wonderful day and I am so very blessed with family.

We'll go to church today and then maybe finish loading the camper. It is miserably hot and humid with more to come. Heat index is dangerous.

I hear DH at the coffee pot so it's time to go sit on the front porch to watch the birds. Y'all have a good day and I'll TTYL.
