small things
Ham, potato salad, corn on the cob, butter beans and cranberry sauce for lunch today. Bosc pear and black grape appetizers.A young technician from Medical Necessities came to check the oxygen concentrator and change out the auxiliary oxygen tank.
Though late, Marion made it for cards. His presence always sharpens up Mother. She's very protective of her seventy year old son.Our company accompanied us as we dropped off two checks at First Farmers. Then, we took them home. 87 °F, suffocating.
I went with mary to carry off the garbage, then talked her into a side trip to El Superior for guavas and papayas. I was in no hurry to get back to the house.
I was out on my scooter. Mary said it looked like rain. I said, doubtfully, I wish it would. It did. I almost reached the dry of the garage when the scooter decided to act up. The rain got harder, but I was stranded. By the time the scooter decided to behave itself, the rain had trailed off. But, I was wet.
Not through and through though. In no time I was dry again. Wasn't even enough rain to give the tomato plants a good drink. Just enough to cut the oppressive heat. Thankful for small things.
71.5 °F, partly cloudy.

we need rain here all the time.
that meal looked good.
Your dinner looks like items we used to have at our family Fouth of July picnics at Gramma's house.
I am glad you have a good spirit about the rain despite you and your scooter getting wet.
I enlarged the picture and viewed all the tractors on Marion's shirt. Hehe. Curiosity would kill me; I'm glad I'm not a cat.
A nice shower to reduce the heat is always welcome! We have had a couple hot days but are back to just 50 in the morning when I leave for work and then about 75 by the time I leave for home. We had some rain and it made the grass go wild! It has taken Sparky all week to get it tamed!
we could use some rain too ~ always so welcome after a long, hot day ~
a dish quite copious
I like the familiar scene of players of cartds !
We are desperate for rain.
Your food plates are always amazing.
87*F? Yikes!!!!
Luckily we have five big barrels to collect rain, and they're all full from the big rains three weeks ago.
Hope you get some better rain soon.
