Good morning everyone. It looks like rain this morning and tomorrow is supposed to be very stormy. I hope everyone is well and enjoying the weekend.

Sue just left with Ava going to Wood Mont School for some kind activity. Dixie and Suzie are confused about what is going on. They normally go for a walk with Sue as soon as breakfast is over, but with Sue leaving early they will have to wait for me to get ready to take them. I am having a hard time getting ready this morning but I will get there,

Okay I need to get moving so I will close for now wishing everyone a blessed day. Be sure to give the fur babies a hug for me and be sure to tell someone you love tem.

Good morning everyone. The weather is stormy with heavy bands of rain coming through. So far there hasn't been lightening nor strong winds but according to the weather forecast we can expect some with the possibility of hail.

The fur gang is well, haven eaten their breakfast. Dixie and Suzie see it is raining very hard so they are not really wanting to go for a walk.

I am feeling somewhat better this morning, but no can explain the nausea I feel every morning. Sometimes its bad, sometimes it's not, this morning it's kind of bothersome.

Okay I need to get moving so I will close for now wishing everyone a blessed day. Be sure to give the fur babies a hug fir me and be sure to tell someone you love them.

Richard, so sorry you're not feeling well in the mornings. Have you researched the affects of your meds? Especially any new or changed ones?

I have researched all the meds and have come up with two that might cause the problems I am having. I am beginning to wonder if I am having gallbladder trouble?

Richard hope you feel better.

Yesterday it was 70 degrees Sunny in the afternoon and Tornado warnings with heavy rain early evening.

This morning it is 34 degrees and snowing. This coming Thursday the projected high will be in the mid to upper 70's.

That is Northern Ohio weather. You never know what your going to get.

We had a nice rain last night. Is was about 1/2 inch and we really needed it.

We spent the weekend in the Immokalee Hard Rock hotel. We saw a show with Paula Dean on Saturday night and then had a meet and greet with her on Sunday morning. The line was long but it moved pretty quick. We also received a free air fryer and an autographed Paula Dean cook book. My wife absolutely loves Paula Dean and was like a little kid when she met her. She actually ran into Paula in the Casino late Saturday night and got to talk to her a bit. It was a fun weekend but I am really tired today. Getting to old to stay up that late. I am usually in bed by 9:30-10pm every night as we get up at 5am for work.

Here is our picture with Paula.

Good morning everyone. Yesterday was a day of mixed weather. It was raining most of the day with very high winds. Last night or early this morning high winds went through a neighborhood close to us causing a lot of damage. Homes with roofs blown off and trees down, no reports of any injuries.

Well I don't know if we have any Tiger Woods fans out there, but after an eleven year drought he won the Masters' Tournament yesterday. Personally I was glad to see him make a comeback. We all make mistakes in our lives and he certainly did, but now he has a chance to show he is a better man who has learned from his mistakes. Great tournament Tiger.

Yesterday brought back memories of my youth and having met such golfers as Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicolson, Gary Player, Sam Snead. When we had the Lincoln Mercury dealership in Augusta, Georgia we would loan cars to the golfer for the week of the Masters. They depended on us to have their cars ready and at the airport. Sometimes we would have trouble getting the cars in prepped, clean and the keys at the front desk on time. However we did manage to keep everyone happy. But there were those who would leave the cars somewhere in Augusta and we would have to find them. With the help of the city police and the sheriff's department we would get them all back.

Arnold Palmer would always return his loaner car to the dealership and we would take him to the airport. I look at the 72 Lincoln setting in the garage and think that's the car Arnold drove in 1972 during the Masters. I look at the letter he wrote thanking me for loaning him the car and saying he was glad I got it back.

Okay I need to get moving so I will close for now wishing everyone a blessed day. Be sure to give the fur babies a hug for me and be sure to tell someone you love them.

My Cookie has not been feeling too good this weekend so todsy we have a Vets appointment. Her stool has been really runny and this morning she was back to somewhat normal on her stool but she did throw up and it looked a little bloody. I don't know if it is the food or just her age, 14 years old. The food is the same she has been eating it for years. My other Shih Tzu is doing great and he eats the same food although not as quick as he usually does. I'm taking a sample of the food in to the Vet, along with a stool sample and I was able to get some of the vomit in a plastic bag.

The food is dry and a well known brand.

On the brighter side of the past few days the weather has been great, 70's during the days and high 40's at night. This is a lot better then Northern Utah, glad we moved. Don't miss the snow blower at all.

It is so sad watching Notre Dame burn. I was in Paris back in 2006 and visited Notre Dame. The amount of detail in the architecture is amazing. The stained glass windows were beautiful. Such a shame that such an old piece of history is gone.
