I can't believe July is almost over . . . seems like it just started but I can't say that I'm not glad to be closer to cooler weather.  This has been a month of record highs - I don't remember so many days of 100 and heat indices of over 100 in a very long time and I'll be very happy not to see them again anytime soon!

I finally have started working around the house - all the bushes out front are gone, cut down, dug out and the ground filled in waiting for cooler weather to plant.  I need to get someone to work on the fence and I'm going to set up appointments for window people to come give me estimates - we'll have to see how much can get done!!

It's been a lonely month, but there too I'm getting better and trying to move forward and not dwell in the past or what might have been.  Just have to see what comes next - life is an adventure after all!

Happy Birthday USA!

June was a fairly miserable month - I got bronchitis that cleared up fairly quickly but then I got conjunctivitis in both eyes!  When I went back to the doctor, the bronchitis was gone but apparently my allergies were horribly affected to the point that I couldn't talk at all!  Later I had to have more antibiotics and more cough medicine - my voice is better but not ok yet - sounds like a frog!!  But I can sleep well at night, eat ok and it gets better every day!  Of course I have two antihistamines, still have the narcotic cough syrup :) and excedrine back and body because I coughed so hard I pulled a muscle in my side!  SIGH

At least now it's July and hopefully this month will be much better than last.
