Too Cool, Too Soon

August 27, 2019

Good morning.  The temperature right now is 55F degrees.  I'm just not ready for this much coolness.  Today will be sunny, and later this afternoon, the temps will get up into the upper seventies.  My idea of perfect is that the whole day should be in the mid to upper seventies.  Yup, make it year round and call it Paradise.

Well, yesterday I did not accomplish anything that I thought I might.  Of course, that doesn't surprise me.  That's how a lot of my days go.  But at least they go!  Yesterday Pogo and I finished off the Prime Rib.  I had planned to make the stuffed peppers today, but Deanne brought over some baked chicken so that will be tonight's supper.  Tomorrow I'll have the peppers.

I mentioned that I bought two new plants.  One of them is a yellow Christmas Cactus.  It's small so I doubt if it will be blossoming for a while. 


The other plant is a Goldfish Plant.  This one is about twelve inches high and looks quite healthy.  I can't wait for it to start getting blossoms.



The Goldfish Plant is a hanging plant, so I'll put it out in the kitchen in the main part of the house.  That's where I keep all my house plants.  That kitchen gets a lot of sunlight so the plants grow well there. 

I did at least start a new bag for the Good Will.  Today I'll try to get it filled.  Another project I'd like to tackle one of these days is to go through all my pots and pans and get rid of the ones that I don't use very much.  After that, I have a "catch all" cabinet that needs to be cleaned out.  I guess I'm going to be busy till next Spring at least.  hahaha.

Audrey sent me an adorable photo that hubby Mac took.  Can you see the surprise in the grass?  It's mama must be somewhere close by.


Now I'm going to do a bit of blog reading.  So, till tomorrow, Y'all have a fantabulous day.

Hugs, Edna B.

It's cooler here in GA too. I see the fawn hiding in the grass! Sweet.
Glad you and Pogo enjoyed the prime rib. It's nice that you have the chicken to eat tonight and can save the peppers for tomorrow. I look forward to seeing your new plants grow and thrive. My cats won't let me have house plants!!! lol

Our temps were 103 yesterday and last night weren't any better. I've been sleeping a lot because I keep my house very cool and I stay under the cover. I am feeling okay but just sleeping more than usual, Your plants are gorgeous. And your weather is just what we need here in Texas. one day of coolness would be fine with me. (lol) I am on my way back to sleep for a while longer this morning and I hope you and Pogo have a wonderful day.

It took me a while to figure out that last photo! Very cute.

I always wanted a goldfish plant. I hope yours does well! I'm working on filling up a Goodwill bag too.
