118.6
HOT, HOT, HOT here. Yesterday we ran around and did errands and ran from AC in the car to AC in the buildings. A taste of summer here. It was the first day of this heat wave where there wasn't much of a breeze which makes all the difference. When we walked with Justice on the golf course last night (we can let him off-leash then) it was still stifling out. Even he barely had the energy to chase a rabbit very far.
Hopefully today will have more of a breeze in the afternoon (the forecast says it will). We are playing a Nine and Dine golf tournament with friends (play 9 holes, then dinner).
Wonderful pictures of the wedding and the new puppy yesterday! Many happy events.
It is 7:11 and the bus leaves at 7:30 for Sunday breakfast. Have a surprising Sunday!

124.2 -- still going the wrong direction. Need more dessert!
Another beautiful morning here in Kentuckyland. I'm not sure what we'll do today -- perhaps I'll head back to the gym (only 1.2 miles from our home) for an extra session of pumping iron and yoga.
We had a wonderful time last night laughing and cooking in our new kitchen. We have only limited pots and pans, dishes, and silverware, but we made it work. The sirloin was wonderful. DH was so happy to be cooking again--dancing, playing air guitar, and making do with what we had to work with. I think everything here is on the upswing. :)
What if this were the last day of your life? How would you like to spend it? How much attention would you be paying to everything? :)

I actually found your last questions to be good ones to ponder. Makes one want to live every day to its fullest and savor the time (especially at our age).

Greetings all
Checking in on this sunny day before I head to the studio. Neighbors are weed-eating which they rarely do. A bunch of college students lives there. They are actually pretty quiet and don't party but tend the lawn only once a year whether it needs it or not.
Poppy seems a little better today. She got out of bed to eat the remains of my eggs just now. More loafing on the couch for her today.
So I need to get to the studio and make more stuff as I have had good sales recently. Paula you are right - some people in California just have too much money. Plus our gallery gets tourists from all over the world. Some of my slug figures went to Singapore.
We started a new show last night. Murderbot. I was initially uninterested as it is sci fi and such but the robot has developed human abilities including being sneaky and naughty. So it is kind of funny. We also like The Studio which is about Hollywood ridiculousness.
Peps hope you are home safe with Neon Leon. He is so cute.
Ann glad you can now enjoy the kitchen. Yay. As to what I would do if it was my last day, probably get a bottle of wine and a lawn chair and go sit on the beach with dogs and DH. Or go to LA to see the new grand niece if it was possible.
Safe travels Paula.
And Liz sounds like it is time to leave Florida. I forget how hot it gets there in the summer. No thanks. Ace the tournament.
Not much else. We have shrimp from Costco tonight which I might stir fry with some veggies. And I need to get the rest of the plants into the planters.

The slugs are awfully cute (slug and cute in the same sentence seems weird though). I can see why they are quite popular and apparently well traveled ;)
