Before you get totally relaxed, you have to move on or are faced with some grim reality. I think its amazing you have your lid on this straight! But you laugh, in your writing I can see that you thrive on friends and family and laughter. And you have incredible energy. <br /><br />I so enjoyed this post. Hope you get back to your country home soon! Believe me, we are all suffering from this heat! :( But its better in a place we love.<br /><br />Jane Blondie's Journalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12988377413260331618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6622758739580732797.post-91489237862170559232018-07-01T14:40:57.094-05:002018-07-01T14:40:57.094-05:00I am so glad that you were able to move out of the...I am so glad that you were able to move out of the depressive state you came home in. <br /><br />I am sorry your mother plays those games with your sister and you, too, to some extent...going to get a milkshake because you felt guilty. I have been there and done that, linda!!!<br /><br />I am glad your mom has her own room now so that her old roommate can get some rest that she needs.<br /><br />I hope you have a great week and get a 'sweep' put on the bottom of your front door so that don't get critters in there. xo Diana<br />NanaDianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14298962791700019785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6622758739580732797.post-82255282326759351782018-06-30T20:05:51.170-05:002018-06-30T20:05:51.170-05:00Happy Anniversary!

I wanted to tell you Happy Anniversary! <br />Ours is today, the 30th. (52 years today.) We've been sitting and talking of our memories. we're not doing anything special either. We had fried chicken for dinner our first evening of the day we married. Tonight, we will have it again!!<br />God bless you!

Here it is Saturday and we're about to have some of your summer heat here. Very unusual for us to have 90 degree days and we have a heat advisory here. That new bunk bed is really going to come in handy for the grandchildren's visits. I love sunflowers and like what you found at Dollar Tree! They are so very cheerful. Hope you have a great weekend and can keep cool.I'm mostly known as 'MA'https://www.blogger.com/profile/12107548726472541669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6622758739580732797.post-35001914410525680972018-06-30T07:18:03.961-05:002018-06-30T07:18:03.961-05:00Happy Anniversary.

I adore both of your places, your home and your camper. They both look so inviting.

She is still in there, that must make you happy to know. Hope your mom gets to realizing she needed her own space. That will be a great surprise of the bunk bed for the children. Love all your sunflower things. I have been thinking of you this week, since my sister said in a letter, "to heck with this heat, I am ready for fall. " It made me think of you and Neil Diamond. :) Blessings to you and LD, stay hydrated, please.

The ranch is such a blessing because it gives you that precious down time where you can be you and do just as you wish. July 9 will be here very soon. <br /><br />Nursing homes are difficult places, nearly joyless places. Precious little laughter there... Reaoma’s laughter — a gift! I have a question regarding this, but I’ll ask behind the scenes, if I remember. I am glad that Lillian has found some peace and quiet and that your mother will not be able to tug at Deanie in wrong ways. May she know peace, too. <br /><br />Have a blessed weekend and Happy Belated Anniversary to a very special couple. 💖 Always celebrate!
