Good 55º sunny clear morning. Got to 96º
yesterday.
Yesterday was nice in the morning, by 1pm only 86º. Then
it heated up and by late afternoon I had the AC on. Brian called and he and
family were at Brookings on the coast and it was only 64º.
I know..... whine whine WINE!
LOL:
Yesterday was over the top exciting. Turned on
sprinklers in the back and filled the water tubs for the critters. Watered the
front also, before it got hot. Took a ride in the golf cart and Dude ran along
to take the trash to the road for Monday pickup. Cleaned out a couple drawers in
the kitchen and have stuff for Goodwill. Played solitaire on the computer. Had
an apple, muffin with peanut butter, and fresh mozzarella for
lunch...

You might have seen this already, it's making the
rounds... a cop in Cincinnati was parked when a goose came pecking on the car
door. He tossed it some food, but it wasn't interested. After more pecking and
the goose walking away but turning to look at him he decided to follow it. One
of her goslings had gotten tangled in a balloon string. A fellow officer showed
up and untangled the baby and all was well...
Dinner was corn on the cob and one of Omaha Steaks Sole Almondine. While
the sole was cooking I mixed up some melted butter, a little lemon juice,
mayonnaise, a touch of garlic salt, and some grated cheese.
I slathered that on the corn ear and put some atop the sole.
OMGOOOOOOD!!!!!!
I tried watching 3 movies I had recorded. They were all
so boring I deleted them.
The Convenient Groom (http://www.hallmarkchannel.com/the-convenient-groom),
Stop The Wedding (http://www.hallmarkchannel.com/the-convenient-groom)
and a Sandra Bullock/Nicole Kidman movie Practical Magic (http://www.hallmarkchannel.com/the-wedding-march)
and could NOT get into that one at all!
All the while, Bruiser slept on my lap!
Ended up watching The Wedding March (http://www.hallmarkchannel.com/the-wedding-march)
which was ok.
All I know. Nuff said. Happy Monday. Ciao.

Sunglasses Day
It’s Sunglasses Day! Sunglasses are quite possibly the
most important fashion accessory of the entire summer season. Humans have been
wearing protective eyewear for centuries, but the stylish designs we’re
accustomed to today are a much more recent invention.
During the prehistoric era, the Inuit people used walrus
ivory to create sun goggles, which blocked out the powerful rays of sun that
reflected off the snow and ice. By the 1700s, doctors were regularly prescribing
tinted glasses for vision correction, and by the 1930s the Foster Grant company
was selling modern-day sunglasses on the boardwalk of Atlantic City, New Jersey.
On the eve of World War II, a little company called Ray Ban began producing
anti-glare sunglasses for pilots. “Aviators” became the first commercially
successful sunglasses.
To celebrate Sunglasses Day, pick up a new pair of
shades at your local sunglasses
store!
