You're only young once, but you can stay immature indefinitely. ~Ogden Nash

To bear up under loss, to fight the bitterness of defeat and the weakness of grief, to be victor over anger, to smile when tears are close, to resist evil men and base instincts, to hate hate and to love love, to go on when it would seem good to die, to seek ever after the glory and the dream, to look up with unquenchable faith in something evermore about to be, that is what any man can do, and so be great.
 -Zane Grey, author

Sometimes we get so caught up in our daily lives that we forget to take the time out to enjoy the beauty in life. It's like we're zombies. Look up and take your headphones out. Say "Hi" to someone you see and maybe give a hug to someone who looks like they're hurting.

Moon River

Moon river, wider than a mile
I'm crossing you in style some day
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker
Wherever you're goin', I'm goin' your way

Two drifters, off to see the world
There's such a lot of world to see
We're after the same rainbow's end
Waitin' 'round the bend
My huckleberry friend
Moon river and me





Amy

Good morning...

Happy Canada Day . I didn't hear any fireworks last night...maybe tonight??

Grass needs a cutting , I think that job will be done today and the rest of the week is busy.We also get our covid booster on Wed and not sure how I will be after that.  Only the first one knocked me off my feet and this is by the same company so will see.

Bubble, thank you....you did another great job on getting the start page put together.  I agree with Zane Grey,Ogden Nash,Keanu Reeves and love Moon River when sung by Perry Como.

Crow is hollering, roosters are crowing .....even the young rooster is trying and that is funny to listen to.

Enjoy your day and stay safe.

Good Morning Everyfriend!  My thanks to you, too, BUBBLE for a lovely start.  I like all the openings you used also.  They are all familiar!  Thank you for all the work you do for us!

Cooper arrived at his usual time!  He's had his walk and his breakfast and he went out in the yard and checked things out and is in the living room taking a rest now.  I've had breakfast, got dressed, put the house together and did the morning dishes.  I don't have a plan for the day but I bet something will turn up!

I wish you all a good day...better than yesterday but not as good as tomorrow!  Make it your own in every way except for the part you share with us!

Thanks for using one of my graphics, Bubble.  Haven't seen it in a long time.  The page quotations are all good. Good job.

Cooler and cloudy here this morning. Nice break from the heat.

Take care,  All.

Grass is cut and trimming will be done maybe Wed??
I am beginning to like the word "maybe" "might get done" or "it can wait"

We can not fault the day, cool ,light breeze and no bugs. :thumbup:

Rick, I have crows holloring again! This morning they dined on  cut up weiners. Does your chipmunk come a few times in the day?

He came for three days, but then hasn't been back since. He may be there when I'm not - So it's hard to tell.
I whistle and there's always something showing up - cardinals, blue jays, squirrels, other birds.

Hello Everyfriend!  Cooper and I had a good day today!  I cooked some hotdogs and cut some of them up to put into the baked beans.  All the while they cooked and I cut, Cooper sat right at my feet and waited patiently.  When I was all finished, he got 2 slices!  I'm pretty sure he knows they're in the beans and he'll be on hand to get his share when I have them for lunch tomorrow.  He won't be here all day because Frankie is off but she's coming over to give hime a bath in the tub sometime tomorrow!

I've decided that my guest room needs new curtains before my cousin shows up on the 16th so Cathy is going to take me shopping and help me pick some out and hang them sometime this week!  I guess I'll find out when....whenever!  AMY, that's another word that's worked it's way into my vocabulary lately.  I get things done...whenever!

I'm heading for the haystack as soon as I go out and water the plants!  I almost forgot I have to do that.  It didn't rain today so I have to get out the "fake rain"!

I wish you all a peaceful night and a great day tomorrow!  See ya then!

GURRRRR, I had a phone call came back to finish up my post and it is no where to be found 😢😡. As many times this has happened to me one would think I would always hit save....

Here I go again....

🇨🇦 HAPPY CANADA DAY 🇨🇦

Thank you BUBBLE for our nice new folder.  I loved the graphics....PHYLLIS and yours.  That granddaughter of yours is so darling....I know you enjoy having her around. 

My husband and I wanted to have MOON RIVER sung at our wedding .  We asked the Episcopal Priest if it was OK?
His answer, "as long as it is not recognizable" 🧐 He was not our choice of who we wanted to marry us but my priest was away for 6 months and we had to get the priest from the Air Force Base to marry us.  He was not anyone that we cared much for and the comment he made kind of put the icing on the cake.  Oh well that will soon be 57 years ago....I really should let it go‼️🤷�♀️

JANE, it seems you are getting settled in after your wonderful family vacation.  I think Cooper is very happy to have you back.

AMY we are getting our Covid Boosters this week also as well as a couple of other inoculations. 

RICK, I enjoy reading about your critter visits.  We used to have all kinds of little chipmunks visit when we were having a picknic or camping back in the day. A couple of days ago we saw a pure white squirrel here in our neighborhood.  I wish he would come visit our back patio like the raccoons do every day. 

Nice to see you popping in CALLIE.  Your new little great grandson sure is a cutie. 

Pleasant dreams to ALL....

Good Morning Everyfriend!  Since Cooper wasn't going to be here early today I decided to sleep in.  However, my innards and my brain didn't agree with that!  I had the alarm set for 7 a.m. but the one in my brain went off at 5:30 as usual!  And it wouldn't allow me to go back to sleep so here I am.  I've finished my breakfast, took my daily meds and did my first eye drops.  I didn't hurry in and get dressed but that's next on my agenda!

I hope you all have a great day!  Do whatever suits your fancy!  And let us know what that was!  I enjoy reading about your days!

We're off to what looks like a nice start today. 70ish and sunny. Must do some domestic chores today - - - or get lost amongst the bunnies.

It is a beautiful morning here...temperatures were in the 60s when I got up at 7 a.m.   But, it is spposed to go up to the high 80s by the afternoon. I should go water some  burned out plants, too, but I think I will make some pickles instead.
  ;) .  Easier  for me to do. 

Take care,  All.

Good morning, I see we're all having the same weather, although ours is expected to move back into the seventies tomorrow as rain from Siberia continues to move in.

We had some wonderful firefighters and smoke jumpers from California, Idaho and Wyoming who came to help out and are staying to help snuff out the last of the Interiors fires, a big thanks goes out to them and to our own amazing firefighter folks!

Nothing new here otherwise, as the smoke has largely dissipated and the emergency breathing shelters are closing. I hope everyone's day goes as well.

JaneS

Today was a busy one and tomorrow will be busy, too.  Cooper will be coming a bit before 7 and spending the night with me!  Frankie has plans with a friend for tomorrow night and she's off the next day.  I love having him overnight!

PATRICIA, I'm glad you all got help with the fires.  It's good that other places are nice enough to send help!  I sure hope it's a lot less smoky for all of you!

Today was a nice day out.  It was into the 80s but there was a nice breeze all day.  I haven't needed the A/C for several days now. 

I wish you all a peaceful night's sleep and a happy tomorrow.  Make it your day in every way!!  And don't forget to share it with us.  We miss you when you don't stop by!

Good morning..

Not a hppy house here, we took Babe for her last car ride yesterday..not an easy job but one we must do.

Heading in for our covid booster in a bit..just hope no side effects from this as it is different than what we have had in the past.

Enjoy your day ,stay safe.

Jane - 6:00 is too early to be up and about. But good morning anyway.

"we took Babe for her last car ride yesterday." Never an easy thing to do, but an end to their hurt and problems.  Babe, Max will show you around.

Oh, AMY, I'm so sorry about Babe but she's in a better place!  And she doesn't hurt any more!  And RICK is right. Max will show her around!  I still miss my doggies but Cooper is doing a pretty good job of loving when he's here!

RICK, I was up and attem too early.  Frankie called off today.  I thought she looked a bit off yesterday but I didn't mention it to her.  She texted me right after I reported in here to say she wasn't going in today!  So I have a lonely day.  If she feels better later, I might still get him overnight.  We shall see!

I'm her to say goodnight and I do have a bedfellow!  Cooper came over around 4 and he's spending the night!  I just heard my first firecracker tonight and so did he.  He's barking at it.  I hope tha's not how the night will be.  I was planning to hit the hay!  Maybe he'll just snuggle!  I guess we'll find out.  Good night Everyfriend!  Sleep well!

Good morning...
Staring off at 61° heading to the 80's. Had another nice rain last evening, wish we could share with those having wildfires.

Off to the city to audilogist then meet up with Bri to exchange goodies.  :thumbup:

Rick, thank you  Babe would like that. You're right,an end to her problems.

Jane, yes she is.. I know she is as eating /walking was a problem...and her heart was giving her grief also at the end. Hope your bed fellow let you get some sleep.

Patricia, thank you.

Enjoy your day and stay safe
