Plus I had trail nibbles of muscadine grapes and strawberry guava. Yum!
I got to use Gramma’s bowl twice today.
Once to mix up my breakfast bars, and again to oil up chicken and potatoes for supper.
Our remodeled bathroom is fantastic.
Every day I feel like I’m living in a hotel! It has so much storage and the new vanity is so nice.
Serenova Tract has some nice trails.
Most of the county parks are currently closed, due to Milton damage. Wolfgang and I have been exploring all of the trails that aren’t flooded, and we’ve seen some deer, too.
Travis is a good friend.
Jim speaks very highly of Trav because he was there when Jim needed someone to help pull him out of a dark place. And Trav has done the same for me, many times.
Jim & Rhea are married!
We got to experience a Greek wedding, and it was very interesting. The reception had good food and plenty of fun dancing, too. They looked SOOOO happy.
We participated in another successful cleanup.
For the Keep Pasco Beautiful Cleanup, we tackled and nearly completed an area in Crews Lake Park that we had started in April. There was almost 50 volunteers!!
Crews Lake is full again.
A few years ago, it was completely dry. Now, with a good rainy season to end the drought, it filled up and is glorious!

Wellness Camp was awesome.
Jen, my speech pathologist and all-around good egg, invited all of the women in the support group to a woman’s wellness retreat in central New York. We spent the weekend doing crafts, playing games, eating, talking, and sharing. I felt like a kid again.
Wild grapes are plentiful this year.
I love me a good muscadine grape! I’ve been able to go out in the back yard and have a nibble every day.
Our Father’s Day dinner was excellent.
Prime 88 had been on our list of places to try, and Trav deserved the special treatment! The food was yummy and the company was the best.
I learned a lot at the cancer support group today.
The topic was immunotherapy. The presenting doctor gave us an in-depth explanation of how the immune system works, along with an overview of different therapies being developed. Hopefully I won’t ever need the info.
I have a lot to be grateful for.
My plan is to start this back up. It’s nice to look back on.
When I use the water flosser, I’m reminded of Niagara Falls.
It’s on of my favorite places on the planet because that’s where Trav and I became lovers. I have to run the flosser to get the warm water through the tube, and the mist billowing out of the sink reminds me of the falls.
When I hear a car coming down the road and I hope it’s Trav… and it is!
It always makes my day when this happens.
I admire my brother’s persistence in making his dreams come true.
Happy birthday, Michael!!
I can almost play a song on the ukulele.
Nero wanted to get Mom’s ukulele working, and I was able to repair the broken tuning peg and get new strings. We discovered that it’s a baritone uke and Nero knows the soprano, so he ended up getting his own and now I’m learning on the baritone. After one day, I’m making pretty good progress on “Blue Ain’t Your Color.” The F chord is a challenge.
Fur Elise is now part of the clan.
Mozart and Wolfgang have been very loving and patient with her growling and swatting a bit. Today, Mozart gave her a few licks on the head, and Wolfgang gave her a kiss, too, and she didn’t hiss! She loves cuddling on Trav’s chest while he reclines on the sofa.
