Summer in Mid Mo!!!!!!!

Well, all is going well here in Mid Mo.  not as  hot as it has been and according to the computer it is hotter in the North than here, rather strange!!!!  And the drought is really getting me down, the whole place is crispy!!!!  My garden has failed part the heat part we don't know what we are doing here!!!  Something has been eating my kale and tomatoes but now all the okra tops are gone, we have been blaming the deer but now we think maybe a ground hog.  So far we are entertained by a herd of deer, maybe 10 or so and new fawns, armadillos, millions of squirrels, a few rabbits, ground hogs and the foxes!!!!  We are really taken with the foxes, there were 4 or 5 kits but we're only seeing 3 now and the mom.  They come out and play in our front yard and drink from Abbey's water bowl.  They come right near us and even Abbey doesn't bother them, she watches very carefully!!!  All the wildlife is really stressed in this weather and no food so we'll see how they fair!!!

And we had a wonderful weekend with a visit from Jo Lynn and Bob, Jo and I parasailed, what a blast!!!  I had never done this before so I pretty scared at first but then the view takes over and it's a real WOW!!!!  Highly recommend this event for everyone!!!!!  Jo had done this before so she was a pro!!!  The guys that took us up are friends with my son Brandon so we got the extra stuff like dipping us till we needed snorkles, so much for the "we dip you to your knees!!!"  What a hoot!!!

Then we hit a few shops and found this really cool clock made from silverware, just love it, a tad steep at $139.00, at least for me!!!!  This shop has the most fabulous bathroom done in tile,  it is amazing.

Life is going along quite well, I am sewing alot for Denise and she is moving right along with her consignment shop, inside Crafted Creations.  It is chock full of really nice women's clothing, accessories,shoes, etc.  Now to get the shoppers!!!  And Patti is moving along with the Upscale Creative Collections of upcycled gifts, clothing, accessories etc in the downtown area of the Lake.  And she too needs all the shoppers!!! 

 Business is not as usual in this economy!!!!

Well, time to fix some vittles and get in my chair for tonights wildlife show, beats the heck out of television!!!!!
