Jello Shifts with Help!

The Ridge

On Friday, July 3rd we all slept in until 6:30. Bill and Gibbs were sound asleep when I rolled over at 6:20 so I didn't move until they did. Bill has had a couple of restless nights so I was happy to see him get a few extra winks.

As the Jackass says
"Good morning!

Just waking up and in the btharoom washing when Bill suggested doing laundry today instead of on the weekend. He hasn't worked all week so there's no reason to wait. I know he's thinking then I can focus on which is the best day for my craft set up. The weather will have me guessing up to the minute!

I think these 4 Moonflowers couldn't
 bear the sun any longer.
I almost missed them but wanted
a picture anyway.
I'll be counting my total when
they're all done.

It's a warm start to the day and the words 'possible showers' are being tossed around on the news channel but I ignored them, took the sorted clothes and hung them on the line. The Mat is clean and I had to notify Sandy again about the coin machine. Did he get in to fix it the other day? 🤔 No idea.

I didn't realize my last picture
of this pepper wasn't the whole
thing!

Yesterday, Gibbs and I watered my vegetables and checked the one flower pot of petunias but we weren't out much all day. Bill doesn't seem to be as bothered by the heat as I am, odd, because I never used to be. Well, I'm not 39 anymore! 🤭

I was up to the clothesline just
before the sun came over those trees.

So, after hanging clothes, Bill and I discussed closing windows and turning the a/c on but decided it wasn't necessary. So, he disconnected us from power and we'll take the free electric when we can get it. We had lunch, poached egg on a couple of slices of ham with melted cheese. Yum.

Our clothes added a bright
pop of colour.

I never really feel hungry at noon after having my coffee but if I miss my coffee, I'm ready to gnaw at my arm! It's the creamer; it does what it is supposed to and keeps me fulfilled. But, I still eat something so I'm not too ravenous by tea time. Are you all like me and hate planning meals? Even lunch is a chore.

There he is, sleeping
in the coolest spot inside.

So, after lunch, I had my shower and felt like a new woman when I came downstairs. 😉I got a funny raised eyebrow when I said that to my sweetie, so I'm not sure what he thought. 🤣 He went to town to fill a gas can for the mower and to Home Hdwe for a couple of items.

I settled at my craft table and started a new card. I'm going to aim for tomorrow morning, so want to have lots of cards in advance - just in case people are in the buying mood. P.S. Lots of birthdays, I have the goods! 

At 1:00 Bill heard that a brief rain shower was imminent at 1:20. So, we went out at 1:10 and brought the clothes in. They were, of course, all dry. We were inside the Suite not even 5 minutes and it started. Good timing! Bill nipped out to close the shed and hurry to the Hangar. He didn't melt. 🫣

So, here is the entrance to 
Bill's hideaway, ahem, I mean Hangar.
What does he do in there?
(ps, notice the green sign on the left of the door?)
Bridgette made that for him over 20 years ago.

I finished my card and added it to the pile. Since it is not a day to be outside doing anything, I stayed in and started my blog. Bill was in the Hangar, where it was very hot even with a fan so I dismantled my table and packed Ptooties. 

Knock knock!
We're all coming in.

I texted Ann for a dozen eggs and since she's not home from work until 4:30, we will stop over on our way out to Catch the Ace at 5. They don't need to be refrigerated so that's a bonus. Bill came up for a small snooze before it was time to leave. I changed clothes, and was ready when he was.

Gibbs seems to be keeping cool on the linoleum floor, I check his slow and steady breathing often. He sleeps pretty soundly but still, when I move, his head pops up to see what I'm going to do next. 💖 We left the Suite around 5, picked up the eggs and carried on. 

Green, blue, brown eggs
and ham?

All went well there, not lucky with our tickets though like some fellow bloggers we know! You know who you are. 😉 We were home by 7 and tossing around supper ideas. We never feel hungry for much and not late eaters as a rule. 

The drive home.
I was in a skirt and it was too
hot to change into jeans so we could take
Jazz.

Our concession was Bill opted for a peanut butter and cheese sandwich and I had a toasted tomato, peanut butter and cheese sandwich. Both were good and we finished the last of the trifle for dessert. LOL I guess we were hungry after all. 🤣

My supper was very good.
Just enough, actually.

It was a great day. Laundry is done. We keep watching the weather for tomorrow and Sunday. Both of us are concerned with things we want to do........and it keeps changing!! We reached 30.5C/87F here by early afternoon. 

So, this is last year, July 3rd
and it doesn't look much different
than today.
With all the weird weather this spring,
I expected something different.
Huh!
Good night!

Thank you for your visit!
