I Like Thus 8-15

 










I LIKE Thursday, sharing with LeeAnna and others at Not Afraid of Color.

I found the above quote on the internet this week. It’s perfect for me. I’m having trouble with documenting and even finding things to like or be grateful for. 


I did receive these photos from my youngest granddaughter. She and her fiancé found quiet, beauty and time together on a short bicycle ride in their small town!


 

Don’t they look happy? Her tank says it all! Be The Light!

They also found this interesting fungi!



Another reason I’m down this week. I learned Monday of a friend’s death. We hadn’t been close recently, but I didn’t know she was sick. She was only 67!

But this opening sentence in her obituary made me smile. I edited her name.She was the Queen of Bling in our sorority! 

 AJH ( 01/09/1957 – 08/06/2024, has left this life to pursue a new career as Director of Bling, Shoes, Purses and Chocolate in Heaven


We watched a great movie on Disney this week. 

I highly recommend it!

how are you coping with the heat dome this year?

It’s been hotter here than normal, but that’s not saying much. We only had one day over 100 degrees. Fall is on the way, there won’t be another. Luckily we have central air. This is the first home we have ever had that had that luxury. We have a full basement that we could retreat too, if the AC failed!  As I get older, I do better in the heat. Not the sun, but shady heat is OK! Just as long as I have a glass of iced tea, I’m a happy girl!  I’m cold most of the time these days! 

Stay Busy and Stay Happy and Healthy and Hopeful!

  1. An obituary that starts off like that is a sign of a life well lived. I'm sorry you lost your friend. But it's good she left some smiles behind. :-)

  2. I'm so sorry about your friend, Judy. Of course you're sad. Love the note about her, though - someone has a sense of humor! The meme at the beginning of your post has lots of good, simple things to be thankful for!

  3. Your granddaughter looks beautiful! How sad about your friend, but I love that line in her obituary. I forget that homes up north tend to not have central air - Diann mentioned it the other day. I grew up without it and don't remember being particularly unhappy about it, but I would be now! If I could get rid of one month in the year, it would be August.
