Hey Gailster
I feel the same way. I can’t seem to help her move forward. It breaks my heart
JJ has one friend. I have been encouraging him to call and invite him over. So far it’s a no go. Lol. He is very happy working on his projects and games
It is beyond gross here. Heat over 90 and high humidity. I’m so scared the electricity will go out.
I hope you all have a good time with the kids tonight. Is it hot there too?? I’d die outside in this weather
Hoping you are having a good weekend!
Adele

Hi Colleen
I totally agree on all fronts!! Grands are a gift to our souls.
We had severe threats of storms today, and they went all around us. Not one drop of rain
I forgot to answer this!! So sorry! It got buried with a lot of emails
I’m worried about DD too. I hope she is ok, and her friend Critt too
Hope your weather gets better and we get some rain

Hey Colleen
JJ is a huge help. He got the groceries in and put away for me today. That gave aGary a nice rest. Lol
Yes, you are so right. She has a very hard time with losing her mother and great-grandmother. She can’t seem to fill up the empty space, no matter what or how you try to help her. She refuses to go for grief counseling
It’s going to be very hot here this week. Yuck
We haven’t heard from DD lately. I hope she is ok
I hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Hi Colleen
She is a nice woman, and does a good job in me and Gary. We are lucky to have her
Basil grows so well. But when it gets real hot, it starts to turn yellow and looks stressed out. So this year I planted it in pots on the deck. The window boxes get way more sun on them. They should do better that way
It got cooler here today. But next week it’s going to be gross!!
Marissa Amanda Santino and JJ went to a zoo in Maine today. The baby had a ball playing with the deer and goats. They all had a good time
JJ is living here again for a while this summer. We’re glad to have him here. He’s a big help.
Hope you have a good weekend
Adele

Hey Gailster
Yes. The hairdresser had been coming since covid began. We kept her because she us good. Plus she us the mother of one ofAmanda’s friends
Santino used the pool a lot. Since we finally got the algae out if they water. It was real bad this year. Worst year ever. I hope it’s better next year!!
I have the basil in a vase with water. I still have to get the cheese. It’s been too hot to do Instacart. I don’t want the food to sit in someone’s car long when it’s 90 and humid. I’m waiting for a break in the heat. Lol. If not, when Bobby goes this weekend, he will get it
We had miscommunication last weekend. Two people thought each other was getting it, and nobody did!!
I hope you get to have some fun with some of your grands this weekend. Those teenagers are tough! Lol. Lol
We had storms all around us last night, and got no rain at all
Hope you have a good night!
Adele

Hi Colleen
We’re having a lot of heat and humidity.
Yesterday there were thunderstorms all around us, and we got a sprinkle. We need the rain. We’re in a drought
I only planted basil this year. Pics attached
Hope your weather is cooler. Thus weather makes us all feel awful!!
