It was beautiful weather here yesterday.
I spent much of the day working in the yard. I got lots
done ahead of schedule!
The clean air and the sun felt good to me.
When it's warm out the kitties like rolling on their backs on the sidewalk and Mr. Bojangles likes to
roll in the warm, sun baked dirt. He was filthy! Makes me smile when he comes home with a dusting of dirt all over him because I know he's had a good day.

We went to the grocery store today.....after we got home
I made a big pot of chicken and dumplings. Dad mentioned last week
that he likes them.......
So I packed him a big bowl full.........then dad told middle son that I make chicken and dumplings cause son stopped in for dinner........as did daughter..................they all like my chicken and dumplings.....it's cute :O)

Dads going to Florida soon. I tried to talk him into flying cause I worry about him driving that far alone. He's going to drive though.........I asked him if he was happy to be going.  He became tearful and said no. Florida was a big part of his and moms life together. He wants to go to all of his and moms favorite places in Florida......all their old dives and such..............something he feels the need to do I guess as he navigates through his grief.........I hope it helps him. I think it will.........................we offered to go with him but he wants to do it alone.

It rained here today. But it was warm. I sat on the porch and read while I listened to the rain. I love the sound of rain.
