Summer is upon us

 Tropical system in the Gulf is giving us some much needed rain.  The roses were getting crispy despite my feeble attempt to keep them hydrated. This apartment complex has an irrigation system but I’ve only seen it once or twice, the sprinkler heads are there. About a month ago they said the schedule would be Monday, Wednesday and Friday.  

Jim had dog sitting duty until Friday when Sonsearae and Chris return from their Alaskan cruise. It is an early birthday present for Chris and from his Facebook posts it would appear he’s enjoying every minute! From the pictures it looks like they had overcast skies and some rain. Not ideal for a couple of Floridians!  The above mentioned tropical system may delay their flights home

Jim has progressively gotten worse with his balance (bad knee) so his doctor referred him to neurologist and he ordered some tests and set him up with physical therapy  He gave him a set of exercises to do and they've helped plus he'll start PT next week.  The tests included an MRI and an MRA.  the MRI showed he had a minor stroke, right temporal lobe.  We were not aware of this so it must have been really minor.

Because of his balance issues and I was afraid he'd do a header into the TV we went to Lazy Boy and ordered a lift chair.  It will be delivered this Saturday.  He almost always uses his cane to get around.

Of course I'm still making cards, these are from a long time retired Stampin' Up! Suite.  It's amazing what you can do with scraps!


Besides the wasp nest being built my patio has this little Anole.  I wonder if he eats wasps?

All is right in our world
