Hi DD and everyone
We are ok so far. There are tornado warnings in the middle of the state and the storms are moving this way later today.
The hurricane was bad in early am. Torrential downpours and thunderstorms. Rest of the day was on and off rain. Not bad. Today it is moving past us again and to the north. At first it moved through us and to the left. Them today back again through the right. Very weird storm. It blasted the central and western part of Mass. we were mostly spared. Some towns around us got flooded.
Marissa and family were safely home at noon. They missed the am rain and the rest of the day was not bad. It was Enzo’s birthday We will celebrate it another day. Lol
Pina lost her best friend. She died of cancer. Pina is devastated. I sent her one of the crying Angel statues I got from the Q. But I had to get it from Amazon cause the Q was out of stock
Tillie’s shirts came from the a Quacker show. She is thrilled. Lol. I got the one that said happy fall y’all
I finished the second parrot eyeglass case and I am on to a butterfly coin case for Steph’s Aunt. She is her fathers sister. As a total surprise a while back, her Aunt moved in across the hall from her. They have begun to have a nice relationship. I am glad Especially since Heather died. Her birthday is early Ictober snd Steph asked if I would do an eyeglass case and coin case for her. Of course I said yes!! Lol
Hope all of you are ok!!! Has anyone been watching Chesapeake Bay on Hallmark?
We were spared from this past storm, snd as long as we don’t have a tornado warning in the next few hours I will count my blessings!!!
Luv u guys
Adele

Hi Colleen
Everyone was here yesterday and I made dinner. It was Heather’s birthday. Marissa was making a snack for Santino and she got a zucchini out of the fridge to cut up. He started yelling ….. cookie, cookie! It was so funny. He loves raw zucchini and other veggies. He eats anything and that is so unusual for a little guy
Gary is still coughing. I may have him call dr again tomorrow. Thank hat ought to be funny
We’re getting the remnants of that hurricane. Two of them. One today and one on Sunday.
I hope your weather is better than ours!!
I’m so done with this summer I have started to put out some of my boo fetti in the kitchen. Lol
Hope you have a good day
Adele

Hi Colleen
So glad your eyes are good! I live great news
We go to the dentist tomorrow for a cleaning. I hope nothing stops it as I need a cleaning
Your baby is hysterical. I get such a kick out if them. Santino calls everything you give him a cookie. It’s so funny!!
Gary is better but still not great. This us taking a long time to disappear
Tillie came up once over the weekend. That was good. We have to be so careful with her
I’m surprised I have nut caught Gary’s bad cold.
I feel like you do. Not sure if the grands will keep the decorations. I know Bobby won’t!!!
Hope your day is good
Adele

Hey DD
I bet it’s how they are counting the deaths. Wonder if they are saying heart attack instead of heat exhaustion
Still, it’s awful Covering it up doesn’t help. I hope you can get some answers st the meeting in your building
So glad your weather is better!! It’s hope for more Fall weather. We have all had it with the heat
Hope your day is good!!

Omg Gailster……
Tornado warnings would have put me over the edge too!!! Add no sir downstairs snd I wound have been gone the next day…. Lol
I do the same thing with shopping for what I want snd missed. Sometimes you get lucky and find it
We had the boys the night before. They stayed all day yesterday. It was so nice to have them here.
Tomorrow is Heather’s birthday. I think it’s going to be ok. It doesn’t feel as bad as the anniversary of her death. Go figure!
Hope your day goes well. Totally enjoyed the stories of your vaca with Jenny!!!

Hey DD
We did the food shopping order at about 9:30 am, and it got delivered around 4:00 pm. We never waited that long. They must have been swamped.
Today will be a nice day too. But tomorrow will start to be humid again Steph and family were herd yesterday. Steph snd Aizen did some gardening. Aizen loves to garden. I had him cutting off the dead blooms on the plants on the deck. He was so funny.
I’ll attach a couple of pics from the hydrangea. Tree out back. It must really like that spot because it is the biggest snd fullest of all those trees
I’m glad your weather has finally cleared This has been an awful summer. It’s horrible all those people in your building died. People should not die in their home fyom heat exhaustion!!
Hope your weather stays goid
Love the Fall pics
I watched the shows on snd off. They had a lot of pretty decorations. I ordered a couple snd then changed my mind. I am really trying to downsize instead of add more. Lol

Hi DD
Thanks for telling me about Fall day! I’ll have the shows on all day. Lol
I checked what I missed. I would have loved the boo fetti cloche!
I’m waiting for our food shopping from Instacart. They have never been this busy. I waited on the food shopping until the weather broke because I was afraid the dairy and frozen would be melted by the time it got here. Well, I think the entire state of Mass. did the same thing bI ordered around 9:30, and at 1:12 they have not even assigned a shopper! It says delivery by 4:00 today. Lol
It is in the low 80’s here today. Thank God!!
That is awful about those people dying. Too bad someone does not sue the housing people for not allowing air conditioners. That is just cruel. If they got sued, I bet they would change their policies.
They have small air conditioners that go into the room, with a vent to go out the window….. like a dryer vent. You nay be able to one of those yourself. At least you could be comfortable in your bedroom with one of those
I hope you can find a solution to the heat!!!
Hope your day is going well. We are both watching adage all day. Lol

Hi DD
Everyone is ok up here accept Gary. He was tested twice for covid and after the results came back negative, the doctor finally gave him an antibiotic. Today is day three and he is feeling better
I got your email…, thank you so much!!
Tillie is good. I did not have her come upstairs until Gary was in the clear. I was afraid she would get sick. At her age any respiratory thing would be very scary
Weather up here is awful. High heat and humidity. Totally gross. I have not even ordered groceries yet as everything would be room temp by the time it got here. With food so pricey, who wants to take a chance it will spoil?? I am doing my order early tomorrow am. The weather is supposed to break by tomorrow am
I am dying for Fall. I have my Halloween little tree on the kitchen table already. Lol. I’ll attach a pic
Marissa stopped by with Santino this am. He was so funny. God bless him, he’s such a pleasant little boy. He only tells when he’s hungry. Lol
I hope your weather breaks soon.
Hope your day is good. New movie on Hallmark tonight. Also Chesapeake Bay starts again on Sunday
Luv u
Adele
