Some chit chat.

Been a busy, busy week. Had adjusters out to look at damage from Hurricane Sally. And then Hurricane Zeta slammed through here. It didn’t do any further damage but I sure am tired of all of these storms. Hoping that’s  the last for a long, long time!

Got lots of reading done and just been enjoying some shows and movies. I feel a huge need to excape into some fiction:)

Stay safe and take care!

Wouldn’t you know it. Things are starting to look a little more normal here and we now have another tropical storm heading into the Gulf. Got my fingers, toes and eyes crossed that it steers away from here this time!

I’m still behind on posting reviews and visiting posts as much as I’d like. I have been reading a lot. Got some good scary books and can’t seem to stop reading. I go from one right to the next. I have to make myself write all of those reviews, dang it. I love writing reviews. Just seem to be struggling with my mojo at this time.

Stay safe and take care!

It’s been several weeks since Hurricane Sally tore through here and I’m just now getting things cleaned up and kind of back to normal. I’ll be getting a new roof soon and have estimates for replacing the front and back porches. Most of the tree has been cut up and moved to the curb for removal. I still have several smaller trees that have to be removed. Some of them are actually twisted.  The power of the storm still shocks me. On the bright side., when they removed the tree, I found out there was no big damage to the pool! It’s full of leaves and branches, but I’ll get that cleaned up and hopefully have some nice weather to enjoy it before things start cooling down here. I hope to get back to sharing reviews and some of my usual book memes soon. I’m sure you’ve noticed my absence and I will also start visiting your blog posts again soon.

Stay safe and take care!

I’ve been super busy. Grabbing all of the overtime I can until I go on vacation. The weather has been hot and muggy and the pool looks so inviting. I plan to make the most of it while I’m off of work. Two weeks and counting!!!!

Stay safe and take care!

Some chit chat.

I want to thank everyone for their kind support about the loss of my sweet boy, Quigley. I sure do miss that rascal. I swore that once he was gone I wouldn’t get another dog. I’ve had several dogs in my life over the past 40 some years and felt it was time to be without the responsibility. Then, my son’s therapist told me it would be very helpful for him to have a service dog. The sooner the better. I discussed it with my son and we are on board for the idea. Just not yet. It’s still too soon. When it’s time, we will work with my veterinarian to find the right dog.

It’s going to be crazy next week and you can tell it by all the people flocking into the store for supplies. We have two tropical storms brewing and their projected paths bring them into the Gulf of Mexico next week. On the same day! But in two different strike zones. One is headed more towards Texas and the other one has us right in the middle of the cone. It’s still early as the storms aren’t expected to hit until around late Tuesday or early Wednesday. I’m waiting to see how things develop before I do anything like batten down the hatches. LOL Got my fingers, toes and eyes crossed that it won’t come here.

UPDATE

I went and checked for new updates and it looks like Tropical Storm Laura, yes, it’s named after me LOL, has shifted more to the west and that takes it to New Orleans. I’m sorry for them but feeling better about it not coming right at us. We are on the east side of the storm though and that’s usually where things are at their strongest. I’m going to keep a close eye on this storm as it can change quickly the closer it gets.

Stay safe and take care!

Some chit chat.

Well, it’s not been much fun for me recently. Firstly a hand injury has kept me from doing much of anything on my computer. I can at least work while wearing a brace to keep movement restricted but it is very painful. And then I had to put my dog, Quigley to sleep. I’d had him for 15 years. He was dumped inside the fence of my back yard as a pup and was the best sweetest boy. I feel his absence all of the time. When I reach over to rub his ears. When I come in the door and look for him to peer up at me from his favorite spot on the couch. For him to look in at me through the window when he wants let back inside. And when he comes over and lays his head on my knee to have his cheeks rubbed. I was there when he took his last breath, and as hard as that was, I’m glad I was with him.  I recall something I’d read once in an Ann Lander’s column and thought I’d share it with you.

A DOG`S PLEA

Treat me kindly, my beloved friend, for no heart in all the world is more grateful for kindness than the loving heart of me.

Do not break my spirit with a stick, for though I might lick your hand between blows, your patience and understanding will more quickly teach me the things you would have me learn.

Speak to me often, for your voice is the world`s sweetest music, as you must know by the fierce wagging of my tail when the sound of your footstep falls upon my waiting ear.

Please take me inside when it is cold and wet, for I am a domesticated animal, no longer accustomed to bitter elements. I ask no greater glory than the privilege of sitting at your feet beside the hearth.

Keep my pan filled with fresh water, for I cannot tell you when I suffer thirst.

Feed me clean food that I may stay well, to romp and play and do your bidding, to walk by your side and stand ready, willing and able to protect you with my life, should your life be in danger.

And, my friend, when I am very old and I no longer enjoy good health, hearing and sight, do not make heroic efforts to keep me going. I am not having any fun. Please see to it that my life is taken gently. I shall leave this Earth knowing with the last breath I draw that my fate was always safest in your hands.

Stay safe and take care!
