Stars and Stripes

 Fourth of July 2021. 

Just look at this adorable angel. I call her Precious but her name is Waylyn Joan and she is 7 months old. She is the daughter of "a niece" Kayla and husband William.....extended family. Everyday Kayla posts a picture, one cuter than the last. I have watched her mom Kayla grow from a baby into a married lady and now a mom. I look forward to watching Waylyn grow day by day.

We finally had some much needed rain late yesterday afternoon. Unfortunately is was not more than a quickie. The winds blew everything around giving Murphy something to yell at as he looked out the slider. At he moment the humidity is at 82% so it is uncomfortable out there. Happily I will be indoors.

🚴 I have been waking in time to watch the TDF...Tour de France which currently is at day 9 and another day of rain for the riders. This year there seems to be many crashes and injuries. Today is 145KM and in the mountains..up hill! Tomorrow is a day of rest for them and from the looks on their faces they need it. the scenery is beautiful.... so many chateaus. I admire their stamina to ride for 2 to 3 hours at a stretch.

Tomorrow I have a follow-up with the Podiatrist to see what the next plan is for my Achilles tendon. So far the nighttime brace is not working and Lidocane during the day is just a temporary fix.

Whatever your plans are for today stay safe. So nice to chat with you. Thank you for your kind words and for your friendship.

NOTE: I have Kayla's permission to post Waylyn. So watch for updates.. sure to put a smile on your face.

What a sweetie pie! Hope you get some answers on your heel. We plan to sit in our driveway tonight and watch the fireworks at Surprise Stadium (if it doesn't rain or become too windy). Happy 4th!

Gracie: She is adorable and so Patriotic.
We are having very low humidity here in Minnesota but very warm in the upper 90's
Good luck on your appointment I hope they can find a cure or a better way to handle the pain.
