Good morning! It's a beautiful morning! The sun is shining, and everything out my window has a layer of gold and glitter ... almost looks Christmasy!! LOL!! It will be one more hot (upper 90s) and humid day, with only a small chance of showers. After today, the temps start going down, and in a few days rain likely. I can hope for an "early" fall; or at least, temps in the 80s instead of 90s!
I finally got a lot of sewing done last night. I am halfway through phase two of a big project; and I hope to be through phrase 4 by Labor Day weekend. Of course, there are multiple other projects also wanting my attention! LOL! So, since we're still in re-run season, hopefully tonight I'll make more progress(along with getting some laundry done, and calling Daddy to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY!). :)
Today is ""The Duchess" Who Wasn't Day" ... "Independence Day (Moldova)".
