Tuesday

Usually I don't care for frozen yogurt but Bob got this stuff last week & it's quite good.

The carton says that it's new..so maybe that's why I haven't seen it before. It claims to have "live & active cultures" and is 90 calories per  ½ cup. It has no fat of any kind but each serving has 20g of carbs and 14 g of sugar. It is good, especially with a little bit of Hershey's Chocolate Syrup drizzled over it.

The other day I noticed Gabi slinking in a crouched position across the living room carpet...she was headed for the sliding glass door.  I got up and looked and there was a gray squirrel laying on the deck railing..all spread out like he didn't have a care in the world.  He must have felt safe with that screen in between him and the cat.  They eyed each other for several minutes and then he climbed up my hanging basket & disappeared on the roof of my neighbor's carport.

(I've been shredding old papers, etc.  Still have a stack here in the lower right corner to tackle.)   There she goes........

And her's the object of her "crouched slink." 

Can you see the squirrel laying there on the corner of the railing?

What a silly girl she is...to even consider that she could catch a squirrel. 

It's icky hot here again today, but there is a breeze and it seems to be coming from the south...which could mean a change in the weather.  I have the carpet shampoo machine out...I need to use it but it's over 90* here in the house.  And both the front & back yard need mowed again. Too hot, I feel like wilted lettuce.

The news is reporting another child drowned in a local lake.  Only 6 years old...where was mom or whoever was supposed to be watching him?  So very sad......... Several lakes in the area have set up kiosks loaded with life vests of all sizes from infant up to adult sizes.  These vests were provided by local fire & rescue (funded by a special grant)  for people to borrow if they didn't have one of their own.   Well, it seems they are being ripped off on a nightly basis.  Apparently, they are there & being used during the day  but then after hours, thieves come in & steal them.  It's unbelievable to me how rude & crude some humans can be.

Barbara & I went to see "Hancock" today.  I didn't care for it.  Sort of stupid, quite a bit of swearing and a little too much violence for me.  I don't recommend it.  Sorry Will Smith...that's my opinion.       We'll see "Mama Mia" next Tuesday.  Today they showed previews for the new "James Bond" movie coming out in November.

Ok that's all for now.....I still plan on doing an entry on the visit of the Tall Ships...maybe later, maybe tomorrow.  Linda
