Good Morning!
I intended to do a blog post yesterday, but once again it was bedtime when I realized I hadn't.

We had a large celebration and carry in dinner at church yesterday to celebrate our retired pastor's 50th year of being ordained. It was really nice. He was brought to tears many times. The food was great. As a congregation each family made a quilt square for him and 2 of the women at church put the quilt together.

After church we all headed to Steve's and spent the day in and around the swimming pool. We got home around supper time.

It's so humid hot! It's really hard to handle. We have storms that come through, then the sun comes out...this has been going on for a couple of weeks. It's horrid!

I've been posting at least 4 things a day on gather and my points are about the same as they have been lately. I have to get busy on doing 2 or 3 updates on squidoo lenses each day. I did a couple on Saturday.

I have to run now and take my son to an appointment and then take him to work. It's Bible school week with our church, so evenings are full each day from 5:45 to 8:45. Jasmine is too old now to attend Bible school so she is going to help with games. I am with the 4th and 5th grade group.

Have a great day and be sure to stay cool if you can!

Another terrible heat day. Over 100 before noon!
We are home from church. I was reading some articles from others in gather and found an affilate program that looks great. I've added the banner for it to the bottom of my blog here.

I'm trying to update my Gifts Galore and More website but it's hard for me to understand it!

Bible study starts again this evening at church. I look forward to going and learning again. Until then and supper I will just be getting done what I can here on the computer....and staying in where it is at least a bit cooler!

Yesterday at gather I put in a photo essay if you would like to take a look. So far I am right on target to get the points I need at gather to get the cash option.

Everyone please stay safe and cool,this heat is dangerous!

Saturday August 2

It was a HOT one out there yesterday taking my mom to pay her bills and such. Well over 100. We are in a heat advisory until Monday evening. They are saying on the news that if you don't have to go outside, then don't. I believe it, it's horrible out there.

I imagine we will go to Steve's after supper and swim.....that is if he's got his pool cleaned up. He made the mistake of letting neighborhood kids in and it got dirty fast.

I didn't get Ariel's furniture finished yesterday, in fact I didn't even get the one chair finished. The chair and the chaise lounge are difficult and extremely frustrating to put together. The tables and benches weren't hard at all.

Yesterday I did a photo essay about some of the homes in my neighborhood on gather.

As I've been saying....stay cool!
