Good morning all,
Looks like it is going to be another hot one today.:
We have had pretty much no rain here either. A sprinkle or two but that is about it. Our lawn is toast. I have managed to keep a few potted plants and some hanging baskets watered but that is about it. We are on a well here so there is a sense of urgency about not wasting water. If our well goes dry we are "screwed" to say the least. No public water system is available. Pray for rain.umbrella:
Martie....my taters turned out great. I will be using your recipe again. Thanks! The dinner turned out really good and I'm glad the family could all get together. I made ribs, brocolli casserole, smashed taters, deviled eggs, and lemon mousse for dessert. I could tell my MIL didn't feel good but she came and enjoyed seeing everyone. She is not doing well at all and it is killing me to watch her suffer. We all just feel so helpless and don't know what to do to ease her pain. It take every ounce of energy she has just to go to all of her Dr. appointments.
Good to hear from you Joyce! I've missed your posts. I know the agony of dial up myself. We have recently switched to Verizon wireless and it is much better. We still can't get broadband yet but they keep telling us "soon". Have a great time visiting your family. I'm sure your flight will be fine. See if your DR. will give you something to help you relax a little before you board the plane. We see many RX's like that at work where the DR will write an RX for just a few pills for a "special occasion" to help releive anxiety.
Prayers to Donna and Mark. I'll look on the prayer thread to keep up with his progress.
Mouse....sounds like you guys are doing great despite all the things that have been thrown at you. Sorry to hear about Jerry's job. That just stinks to say the least. Sounds like you have and are taking all the right steps to find new careers.
Sharon...have a great time in DC over the 4th. Hope you get to see the fireworks. Sounds like the perfect way to celebrate the 4th to me!

Also, thanks for the offer of the use of your cabin. Wow, that is very generous of you. DH and I just might take you up on that. You know we love to come to Helen!
Pattie, and Elizabeth...hope you are both feeling better this morning. I know those achy joints can be a real pain.
Ditzy....hope you are feeling well this morning. Great job on saving money for your new truck. It is a good feeling to have some money stashed away!
For those I missed, hope you are doing great!
Gotta run, I've got a busy day ahead of me. Going to bake my FIL his favorite cake for Fathers Day!
Hugs,
