Summer Time and the Livin Is Easy

All of a sudden we have more vegetables than we can eat.   I've frozen corn, green beans, eaten corn, eaten green beans, and now we have tomatoes and zucchini.   If it's not from the Farmer's Market, we have these things given to us.

It's been warm but not overly hot.   Flowers are blooming nicely and we are getting more done to the house.  Ted has worked in his garage so hard.   It looks like something out of HGTV.   I bet they'd like to have him do a show for them.     Tomorrow we get a new furnace and A/C.    I wonder what we will do next year if we get all the projects done we have on our list.

Maybe next year we can wash the windows.   Keep thinking we will do them but something else always seems more important.

Our two first born    

came for a visit by themselves.   We love their families but, oh it was nice to have them here alone.  We giggled, looked at pictures, went garage sailing, and giggled some more.  Kim took a SELFIE of us and we giggled again.

School will be starting before long and then everyone is busy and before we know it it will be cold weather and we won't get outside at all.

I hate to see Summer end.  

Sick and Tired

I just pulled up my email account and there on the side bar is a good looking woman with short shorts on and a pair of really high heels sitting on the ground resting next to a car tire.   Can you guess what this was for?              CAR INSURANCE    Could someone please explain to me what she has to do with buying CAR INSURANCE?

Before we moved to Illinois I turned my computer on one day and the side-bar had several pictures of good looking middle aged men.   The headline was:  " Ellen,   there are 145 men in Chapel Hill that would like to meet you.:"     I burst out laughing because Chapel Hill probably didn't have 145 men in the little town and none I had seen were as good looking as the guys pictures they showed here.

I pull up my Facebook account and young women I watched grow up are whining because the government won't buy their contraceptives.   Next I guess they are going to want the government to buy their tooth paste and shampoo too.

I used to hear people say they hated to watch the news and I never quite understood it.  I do now.   I really don't understand why we have to hear about the WORLD CUP for 16 weeks AFTER we lost or watch the same news on the local channel as we do the National News program.  

I think I'm getting old.  I'm tired of hearing some young women whine and sick to death of commercials for Viagra or Cialis.

GET OVER IT people.
