I just came in from the back yard where my ambition exceeds my ability. It is like a sauna out there. Jose and I got a late start on our walk and we paid the penalty. I groomed him myself with the scissors this time. He is such a sweet boy that he sat quietly and let me do it. we miss our Rex but Jose is special also. He loves to go anywhere any time and is a wonderful car dog. He also knows tricks and performs for guests.
My cousin will be here soon from California. We look forward to her visits. My aunts were so special to me and taught me so many life skills. Her mother took me under her wing when I was seventeen and meant so much to me. I love my nieces and nephews with a fierce unconditional love but we don't see each other as often as I would like.
More people are blogging now and though face book is fine for political posts, I miss knowing what all my friends are doing. Fredo posts on My Lot and I am going to see if I can access his blog today.
His health is not the best but Mike takes wonderful care of him.
We are watching the wild fires in Colorado. Laura is prepared to evacuate if necessary. We have had enough rain but in this tremendously hot summer who knows what will happen. I water every single day.`
