I hope everyone had a nice weekend. We spent Sunday at my Mom and step-father's where we fired up the grill and my Mom surprised us with some really delicious ribs. Then, after some strawberry shortcake for dessert, we watched the original Top Gun. My daughter had never seen it, and none of us have seen the new one yet. It turned out to be a really nice day. Also, it looks like the heat wave has broken in our area. I think it's only going to reach about 80 degrees this week. Please check in and let us know what your week looks like.

One of my most constant wild cat family members has been missing for the last few days. We had out 1st monsoon storm and rains here at my house. Sole has been missing ever since. He was the one who was always the 1st to the food every morning. I hope he is ok.

tycho657, I hope the kitty shows up soon. It's always worrisome when one of the regular crew drops out of sight. Our neighborhood cat crew is quite funny. They eat at two of my neighbors each day, and then I always make sure I have a large pan of water in my backyard. Some days I look out my back window and there's a line 2 or 3 cats deep as they wait their turn to take a drink! I love how they politely wait until the cat in front of them is done. I finally got and put together my new rocking chairs for the front porch! I went with the blue over white or grey and I'm glad I did. The only downside is that the matching table was out of stock, so I'll have to keep an eye out for it. The little brown table we have has seen better days so I'd like to replace that too.

No yard work today!! Storms moved through south of us and then turned north yesterday afternoon and last night. Several metropolitan areas in the 'DC Area' have thousands of homes where power still may be out until tomorrow. We had 2 3/4 inches of rain but top winds were only about 25mph; so, we just got a much-needed soaking. Honestly, things are looking great to my unsophisticated eyes. Of course, there is always tomorrow when we can get back at it.

Our oldest daughter's birthday was Thursday. We had a little family party for her at our house. Dinner and cake. Today we're going to a baby shower for one of her friends. Someone rented a hall and there are at least 100 people invited! I've never been ton a shower with so many. It's being catered. We could be there all night if she opens every gift, lol.
Our monsoon season is in full swing--hot and sticky with thunderheads building around the area. We always hope for rain, but our neighborhood seems to be in a dry zone. Luckily no yard work necessary now. Even the weeds have all dried up!

Remember when I told you about the local Deputy Sheriff that was shot in the head back in September? He's been on a long road to recovery. He finally got to come home in late January and continued to work on walking and talking. He still has work to do but yesterday he threw out the 1st pitch at the Cubs/Cardinals game in St Louis! He's had tons of community support. I'm glad he continues to improve.

Hope you're able to get the table.
