One last thing.....elk are all over the place down the road!!! they are here in town in the am as well.

[AZamericonnie]

A good commute indeed & schooling is taxing my brain! LOL

Wish I had rain to send you!*Hugs*

[luvie]

I just looked out and it was very large and golden and beautiful! :)

My favorite time of the month! Even if there be crazies about. LOL!

[AZamericonnie]

Hiya Coldie & so good to see you! *Hugs*

How are you? And Mr Fred? :)

Took Daisy Dog to the vet yesterday...she getting a little incontinent...can’t handle that!

Blood work is great & still checking for any infection but I think it’s just old age.

She needs doogie depends! Ha! LOL

Hoping to get some meds for her tomorrow. Eight walks a day is not ensuring no accidents!

[Kathy in Alaska]

OMG!!! It's 72 degrees at my house!!

[AZamericonnie]

OMG!!! It’s 89 degrees at my house!! (quite cool)

Shall we pack ourselves in ice? LOL

[Kathy in Alaska]

[Kathy in Alaska]

YES!! LOL!! Fortunately there is a little breeze and I left my window open this morning. Sunday I cleaned all the screens and got them up so the windows CAN be open without mosquitoes and other flying things coming in.

[AZamericonnie]

Well I hope you cleaned those screens without getting any water spots on those freshly cleaned windows! :)

[Kathy in Alaska]

My goodness.....busy day for you. Lots of music to your ears.

[Kathy in Alaska]

You and Fredd are busy....LOL!

Wolves?? Not a good thing in town. Be safe!!

[Kathy in Alaska]

I put them in the bathtub and used the hand held shower head to clean them. It’s the easiest way for me. I keep spraying them, both sides, until no dirt and fuzzies show up at the bottom. d:o)

And I can be comfortable too....I sit on the toilet....closed of course. My bathroom is only 5’ x 8’....tub on one side, sink and cabinets on the other, with just room for the toilet in the middle.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Chasing is his thing! LOL!

But you have to keep him safe.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Are you able to take an elk for food?

[Kathy in Alaska]

Hope Daisy Dog is better with meds.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Thanks, unique.

Connie.....#50!!
