First Morning of July

Was unusually cool for Dallas.
To open a window in July--well, is pretty unheard of--except for today. As I got ready for work, two Tuxies, who are brother and sister, took full advantage of the cool down:

.....and tomorrow morning may be even better! Stay tuned.

Hot One

Another hot one here. What did I expect? I've been in Dallas since 1988. In fact, my 21st anniversary of changing my address from Iowa to Texas was a couple days ago. It's July. It's Dallas. Of COURSE, it's hot. Ugh. Yet, now I know to really drink lots of water and if it ain't worth leaving the a/c for, then anything can wait.

Kinda like in the deep freeze of the mid west during, oh--January. Is it worth to bundle up to head out in a windchill of 50 below. If it's not, then curl up with a book and cat and a cup of hot cocoa with marshmallows.

Like today, I did leave for about a half hour. I craved fresh strawberries, plus I was out of watermelon. Finally found a sweet batch of watermelon---and dang it--I wanted MORE. Too bad it wasn't on sale anymore--but I got it just the same!

So, I look at my cluttered house, dream what 25 grand would do to assist a house stuck in the 1970's to up to 2009 and take a sip of water. Now gotta tear myself from the PC, check on the cats--they are quite quiet-make my salad, pour my lemonade, check what movie I'll watch later--it's something what movies are found in a box you never got all the way through-for one reason or another.

And now it's time for the 80's band, Living Colour. For the moment their star shone bright, I thought they were GREAT! Wonderful to men with my skin tone, rock the house DOWN with "Cult of Personality!"And I bet when this was on TV in 1989, it was probably another cold day in Iowa or a hot one here.

You just deal and now where is that lemonade?

The Holidays are pretty much right here. Yep.  Especially since three Christmas movies, in the last three days, between Lifetime and Ha...
