Goodness it is hot...and summer has not officially arrived. The temps have been in the low 100s and now they say Thursday maybe 112. Thank goodness for the AC. Moments bring back that awful weekend 3 years ago when the AC quit. Thank goodness for Don who helped get me another and was here for the installation. Murphy and I are taking our morning walk as early as he will go and then his last one at just before dark.
Lisa and I have just finished our pillowcases....for now. Another trip to the quilt shop is needed! This is mine.... the colors are much prettier in person. I may make another from these prints; the body in the Dragonfly, the cuff in the floral and the trim piece in the same stripe.
This is a Lisa pillowcase for the lanai sette.... chili peppers. She has made 2 others but as they will be gifts for someone, pictures will be posted later.
This is one that I made for her to match the horse I made for her last year...yes, he is wearing a mask. Lisa wants to make sure he is protected! We have a lot of fun around here.
There was a pool party yesterday....
Okay, not what you were expecting. Originally Lisa said lets get a pool and I can sit with Murphy to cool him off...not happening as Murphy just wants to watch. He did take a couple of drinks and sniffed. So, Bloody Mary's in hand she and Alan enjoyed cooling off for the afternoon. Me? I enjoyed my Bloody Mary inside with the AC.
Time to check the swishing and fluffing out in the laundry area. Chicken soup made and cooling, baking next as soon as the ambition arrives and plenty of iced water to keep hydrated today. Glad to chat with you today. Thank you for your kind words and for your friendship.
****On a personal note: I am not against peaceful marches (I did my share in the 1960s!) but I am angry and concerned with the criminal activity that is happening. It now has nothing to do with the original purpose. Please stay safe when out and about ****
