Good Morning, Friends.

And so we begin the last full week of the second third of our trip back to Christmas.

Yes, next week (one week from tomorrow in fact!) will see us to the TWO THIRDS mark to Christmas Day and the start of the FINAL third of our voyage.
(Wow!)

Our numbers, to start the new week:
Days to the Season: 88
Days to Christmas Day: 130


The humidity was up a bit yesterday and the trend will continue this week, as Mother Nature reminds us not to get too smug -- there is still plenty of Summer weather left.
Today has commenced at 72 degrees under calm and sunny skies here in the capital city.


Have a Marvelous Monday, Folks!
And I hope your work week is off to a great beginning.

Merry Monday!!
 
Good morning MMC from Vermont !
having a heat wave back home with lots of extreme heat warnings out. Yesterday it was 95f there. So glad they have a good AC .
It is going to be hot here in Vermont too, 88f today. We are headed into the mountains, smugglers notch and Stowe area. My brother is going to walk up the hill under the ski lift, we are going to sit at a picnic table and watch him.
I am enjoying this holiday, lots of extra sleeping, learning more crochet stitches from my sister and sister inlaw (so much easier when someone shows you how to do it!), catching up on my reading and visiting.
Hope you all have a fantastic day !

I'm going to have a bragging moment - My Gracie was a star at the county fair yesterday! She helped get our friends daughter an "Outstanding" in her modeling project! :D She was wiped out when she got home! LOL

Thank you Snowflake, I really appreciate the prayers! (((hugs)))

Just wanted to update everyone, Maggie's appointment went pretty well. The specialist doesn't think we need to do any further testing for the collapsing trachea at this time. We're going to increase her medicine and that will hopefully make her more comfortable. I just have to figure out how I'm going to get her to take these pills!

I'm glad Maggie's apt went well!!! I hope the increased medicine really helps her out! Good luck getting her to take medicine! For Buster I would buy a turkey smoked sausage ring (like healthy request, etc) slice it, then cut the slices in half & make a little slit in it with a knife to put the pill in. I would freeze them & just pop them in the mciro for a few seconds, stick the pill in & he never knew a thing! Continued prayers!

We had my brothers Mini Yorkie at the lake with us over the weekend. She had a blast, the lake peeps loved her, but Gracie was happy to see her go home this morning. LOL!

Good evening, friends! Just wanted to check in and say hi. I also wanted to let you know how Ella made out today - her tumor was removed and it was just a fatty tumor! Blessed be to God! She's in some pain tonight, but we're so happy that's so going to be okay. I've been loving up on her and just relaxing with her tonight. I'll get up her tomorrow. Thinking of you and prayers as well! Goodnight!
