Right about now, I could use some drop in company. I have whiled away the hours reading and watching old westerns on
tv. It is the only kind of movie that Ted and I can agree on. I love romantic comedy and he loves spy movies and thrillers that have almost no dialog....a lot of screams and bullets and murders.

I read a good book by Jacqueline Mitchard called The Breakdown Lane. I have two more to read but neither of them
seem very interesting. I finally got This Body of Death by
Elizabeth George and it was excellent.

Ted and I watched a western with Warren Beatty and Julie
Christie and it was extremely out of the ordinary. It was
called, Caleb and Mrs. Miller. It is an old movie but we
missed it the first time around. We both enjoyed it a lot.

Ted has an echocardiagram tomorrow. I guess everything has
to be ruled out.

I planted a cone flower and another rosemary yesterday. I
water every morning when it is cooler and I think the plants do better. It is going to be 99 today. The worst is
when it gets to be over l00 degrees. I can remember summers
when it has been ll8 for a solid week.

Our climate has changed so drasticly that it has to be
global warming. We were cold by the first week in October
last year and had an awful blizzard on Christmas Eve.
