Grandkids…HoneyB has learned how to swim, (more or less). From lessons continue thru the summer to refine her skill set but Yay! RainBowBoy is making progress w swim lessons at the Y Camp. You-Breaker is overcoming his fears and shyness toward the swimming teacher. He’s doing elk for a 3 1/2 year old dude.
Made French Bread pizzas from leftovers + basil from my garden this PM. Soooo yummy!
My básenme is super-cleaned! Go me! It took from about 11 AM-6 PM to get the job done, but it’s no longer a shit hole-dungeon. Is it posh and finished…nope, but it’s manageable and as I stated before, no longer a shit-hole dungeon. Yay for knocking another accomplishment off my summer to do list!
We saw DISCLOSURE DAY on Monday night for the Hub’s upcoming birthday. So good! Lots to take in and process. Spielberg def knows how to put on a show!
My garden! It’s glorious, and other ppl have complemented me too!
Sunny days, wine, warm temps, fur-babies, clean laundry
MEDIUM:
I’ve been stung a few times while working in the yard. (Bees) Luckily I am not allergic, but the ITCHING!!!! FFFFFCCCCKKKKK!!!! Yay for knock-off Walgreens Caladryl in a spray can. It nails the itch problem effectively at least for a while.
Next door neighbor is hanging in there but definitely riding the Hospice Bus. He had the whole family in for Father’s Day to visit and have fun w his one and only grandkid. His granddaughter got to go to the playground and hang at our house some, which helped them out some. HoneyB liked having another girlie to spend time with too.
I submitted a story to a local pet magazine on Monday. Now I am in wait n see mode.
BAD:
Kitty Sapphire (see icon) is not well. We’re in those “last stages” of the kidney failure “journey”. She’s lasted 9 months-ish on her in home treatments. Unheard of according to or vet, but he def respects our efforts. We will be calling “game over” by Monday if this lasts through the weekend, if ya know what I mean. She won’t eat or drink. We had the grandkiddos kiss her goodbye and tell her “I love you” when they left our house yesterday. HoneyB understands what’s going on re bth the cat and the next door neighbor. You-Breaker, not so much.
I am so goddamn sick n tired of death issues. It’s been a fucked up 18 months between my mother, my sister, recently a high school friend, a neighbor and soon-to-be another neighbor and now my cat!
Certain political figures and all other figures and institutions who kiss his ass / support / rule in favor of his wishes.
Flies getting in the house.
