Ah. . . .choo . . .


The sound reverberated through the neighborhood as I sneezed while cleaning off the porch before I sat down to breakfast on the glider. The answering "God bless you" came from across the street! It made me laugh. That was one heck of a dusty porch. Off of the Cipro and as of yesterday on Kefflex. Feeling much better. Think I just caught some kinda bacterial yuck. Went to see Mémère's patch of black-eyed-susans in Preston. J. and N.'s property is so pleasant. Their vineyard is beautiful and I believe they will be harvesting the Saint Croix grapes this year. N. beat me at cribbage. It only took us about an hour and a half for one game! We did a lot of chatting! Went out for a tuna grinder for lunch at the pizza house near Flemmings. Delicious. Kid brother had returned from working at Maugle Sierra Vineyards when we returned from lunch. Not sure how he can stand working in this humidity and heat. I picked beans this morning, pulled some weeds and fertilized the potted plants and that was enough outdoor work for me. I'm going to try to get Puppy's Pop to take me out for ice cream for lunch.

Had a nice but short visit from the G.'s yesterday afternoon. Puppy's Pop and I were sitting in the shade by the garage when they pulled up in a brand new coffee bean colored Equinox. Sue and I will probably go to the PCA get together in September. I haven't been in about 25 years. It should be interesting. Can't believe it's been 51 years since Agnes and I graduated from high school. Not too much happening here. We'll be picking up Kiddo in Mystic tomorrow in the late afternoon. He hasn't been here in a few weeks. Must admit we miss him! Oh, one last bit of news. I ate some bear/venison burger at the wedding last week and was surprised I liked it. I didn't eat a whole one, just picked at my brothers' food! Pretty scattered thoughts today.
