SUMMER HEAT

Supposed to be in the low 90's today and a heat index of over 100.    Days like this make me wish we had a pool.   Just for a couple of months.

Beans are growing good now.   Garden looks better than any garden we've had in several years.   Lots of rain and heat that only mother nature can provide.    Even our rain barrel just can't compete with her.

Yesterday found me taking the shawls to be shipped to Dover Air Force Base.   I dreaded having to get those wrapped and in a box.    The lady where I usually take things to ship looked at me with a skeptical eye as I walked in with 6 Prayer Shawls and 2 stuffed animals.    She said she had "just the thing"  when I told her what they were.    So...under my watchful eye she put them in a big "shrink bag" and sucked the air out with a vacuum and they went into a decent sized box.    I was so happy and will be anxious to see how they traveled.    I'm hoping the removing of the air in there didn't pull the lettering off the letter I had sent to the Chaplain.    :)

Need a change from all my donating and giving away this week.   Going to water aerobics and then do a little shopping for ME.
