Past mid August now and

  just received the electric bill. About half of the previous month! I'm thinking that new A.C. unit may almost pay for itself after all. How cool is that? Smaller than ever for a summer month. Yay!
  Other than that, not much going on around here. The rain keeps the pasture growing (good thing) but also keeps the yard too high and too wet to mow (bad thing) lol . Actually got it a short bike ride last weekend. Was perfect weather, not too hot and a beautiful evening.. about an hour ride around a country neighborhood.
  All animals are sound and healthy for now. Fat and sassy. The grass is still green. No summer burnt yellow yards to be seen.
  In two days it will be our 34th anniversary. Seems unreal to me that it can be that long ago. Still an adventure all the time. Heading towards another major change in the life and times...T is going back on the road. Only way to improve our income at this point. Haven't had to do that since 1996. Some days are diamonds ...... will be an adjustment for both of us. Be home on weekends.
  We have now lost 30 lbs each since Jan 1....we each have a ways to go. Him less than half of what I need to lose but that's okay. I'm just too short for my weight. lol
  First day of his vacation. Using that time to square away a few things here at home and at the other job. And relaxing.

  All I can post today. You have a diamond kind of day!
