Good morning! It's a wonderful morning. It's overcast, but the forecast is for partly cloudy and possible afternoon showers. Today will only be mid 90s, but probably humid with a front coming. Some rain would be welcome; but sprinklers are going, just in case. :)
Yesterday: I had to make a couple of stops on the way homek from work/dialysis last night. Evening "routine" lately has included moving sprinklers and checking on/feeding puppies. I didn't find much energy last night, but did get a few small things done ... and any small progress is still progress! :)
Today: I have a lot I'd like to get done; but I also have several errands I have to go take care of, so I don't know where things will end up. Some time this morningmy "grand-pup" is coming to visit for the weekend. I don't know how she and Maggie-the-cat are going to get along ... this could be "interesting"! LOL!
