Evening Wading

  With my sister, My sister, Kim, and I go for an evening by the river. I can hear the thunderstorm ⛈️🌧️ coming in, flashes of light and thunder. We get talking of foods we miss on certain health concerns.  A&W gets mention and it sounds so delicious.   I get a quick bite 😜 after everyone's home. It wasn't as good as I hoped it would be. Leanne is a joy to be around. Wish she would be closer,  Same with Russell. With Covid never leaving it's hard to visit, or socializing. Seems when one gets it another day some one else gets it. Makes visiting these long distances hard to do.  When people travel far from where they are. Yet were still making the best of it. Down by the river. Talk about beauty being a corporate view not a reality view. I guess my vape fell in the water πŸ’¦. I was surprised.  I never even new I brought it to the river in the first place. But I pull it out of the river πŸ€£πŸ¦„ nothing πŸ‰ like unicorns and dragons to make a person think...

River Wading

 What Fun! Summer fun @ 33 C πŸ™‚ Happy Friday everyone I start off my Friday in the river at noonish πŸ˜ŠπŸ˜€. I Picked Kim up a booster juice, she has not been feeling good lately.  So I got her a booster juice, also I got one as well. The dog playing keep away as she ran between us. Dix gets a toy and brings it across the gap.  She was pretty good at keeping her toy with her and not letting it go down river. I've been loving my umbrella ☂️⛱️, kept the gear down quite a bit.  Once you get out if the water, πŸ’¦ it get quite hot πŸ”₯πŸ’―. But Dixie paws I figure were getting water logged and swelling.  We spent about 1 1/2 out there. Most the time was in the water, πŸ’¦πŸ˜‹ Dixie had a good time, not much whining. A bit of exploring but came right back when called. Having treats helped. Long weekend 😌 fun.

Edmonton 90th

  Edmonton get away Long over due, Kim and I get up to Edmonton to celebrate our granny 90th birthday. Granny loves the Queen so there was talk of her reaching  πŸ’― years and getting a letter from the monarch. A photo with the Aunts and Uncles with Granny and Grandpa  We go to a new restaurant in old Edmonton. Having pierogies for dinner πŸ₯—πŸ₯£.  We almost took to long cause we didn't know if we never closed our menu that they don't come to our table to check our order.  We showed 1hr and 1/2 to closing with our reservation and we never closed our menu for the first 1/2 hour.  So we were very hungry by the time our food came. We stopped at a bakery on our way to Edmonton. We said we would go again.  It was a pleasant experience πŸ˜‰. Total Gluten Free Bakery 5100 Wolf Creek Dr Unit 2, Lacombe, AB T4L 2G6 (403) 789-8432  Total gluten free bakery We got some gluten free muffins (like lemon poppy seed and strawberry muffins and baked pizza bread and garli...

Horse shoe

  A Steel Shoe Toss in mid Air  Playing horse shoe I get tossing the steel in the pegs in the ground. I hit the pegs but no wrap around's, besides one. A fun day 😁 My brother and sister from the Cayman islands are visiting.  So I enjoyed playing horse 🐎 shoe with them. We each won a game with the guys. Russell tossing the shoe. Leanne tossing the shoe Dad tossing the shoe. Another event before the horse shoes was a deer came and visited me out front. A deer walked right behind me to eat the bush. I was out for fresh air and noticed it walked right up to me. Not even bothered by the smoke. I rode the motorcycle 🏍️ for supper. Then got a text to play horse shoes. So I went over. Top athletic performance Looks like,,, My sister said some nice comments how I was always the best player but I never got into sports. That made me smile.  I hit a few ringers on the post but only one stuck around. Most the time it would tumble wheel out of the zone. The games got long. We v...

Kim Nigel Dixie Walking Time

  Kim goes for a walk Kim and I go for a walk with Dixie for a 20 minute walk. Kim didn't want to go far, not feeling well today.  But a walk would do her good.  And to late in the day is to hot for Dixie.  So we took to stepping out way down the street. A green strip that got wild plants put in. Looks for like weeds, as Kim and discuss how it's just a way for the city to say we have this land but we don't have to do anything with it. Happy that the dog is more relaxed and I'm hoping to get some space from the dog.  After a walk.  She settles down. Thrift store drop off. This morning I set out some pots and pans and utensils a blender as such to send to the thrift store.  Just so we're not filling the garage with old things.  Has to be done, or stuff is everywhere. I cleaned up the sunroom so I could sit in it while a colder part of the day. Picked up all the diamond πŸ’Ž art project spread over the couch. And just put it in a Tupperware container. ...

Fawns and Fruit

  Some Fawns jumping around Out for a walk, and spot some fawns walking the path, so we walk off the path so they could go pass. There are a bunch of fruit trees by us, so I'm guessing they're going to be a nice treat in late summer for the deer. Dix never even noticed them, or put much attention to them. We kept walking and Dixie did her dirt in the park. The other day I saw some one throw out a 🍌 banana and the deer walked onto the road and ate the peel.  I was wondering wow. That is cool. I got some fruit from the fruit truck today. I spent $36 on, Two containers of raspberries for $16 and one large container of nectarines for $20.  Dixie got some molding raspberry and she is way better behaved today.  Fruit does that to a person and a dog πŸ•.   They need it in there diet as much as us.

Nice to stay outside in July ☺️

A hotter day today 🀠 Tossing the ball around I sit down and water πŸ’¦ a garden.  I have been enjoying this summer heat today. Out back watering, and weeding other days.  The grasshoppers are slowly coming back. I tried stomping on them but there quick Devil's. We have mushrooms and raspberries  Looking over the yard I see mushroom πŸ„ Kim actually pointed it out.  When she came to talk about her appointment. Raspberry bush already has a berry on it. Kim mentioned that another doctor said there's early stages of inflammation and it's been brought up before.  That if nothing happens surgery will come about. I read about it in 2017, so it's not the first time it's been talked about. If left uncheck surgery is going to happen.  Kim is thankful for another early detection.  I'm more hoping she trys more prevention with it before surgery happens.   Steroids and antibiotics type detection yet the information is readily available to divert surgery....

Break of lit

June to July I took a break in June to July on my Lits.  Again I decided I'd publish my blogs again.  Under another website link. I started needing to take a break from writing. We got some visitors June.26 and visited having hotdogs in the back yard. Last time we had visitors I got a panic attack and we had to go to the parents to have burgers. Yet this time πŸ˜ƒ we cook here. I vacuumed and mopped the floor 4-5 times til the mop bucket had clean water. Friends last year that visited I could not get cleaning the 🏠 house. And had to cancel. Yet this visit was an enjoyable event. I took the dog for many walks that day to calm her down. After changing admins I am trying to delete my anonymous account Jiminy niggles.  But I've been using it do much that it took over as a main email. Do I've trying to unused it til I could get rid of it. Use it less. New website new admin. Took so tech savvy to figure it out.  Trying to switch blogs as such. I also figured out how to chan...
