  You can visit Sandra and join HHM HERE                           Hello, sweet friends. I'm going to ask for prayer right up front! I have a doctor's appointment and an ultrasound to find out what a bulge in my abdomen is. I'm leaning towards ventral hernia - but there is always the possibility of something worse. I would really appreciate knowing that I'm being lifted up to the LORD.              *** The weather in my neck of the woods***   Cooler weather!

I picked up some nectarines, red plums, apples, pears, and lots of berries and salad stuff. We also went for a walk at the park with the trail through the butterfly gardens. Both time we were there, the real feel temperature was 105/106.  I'm excited to go there in the fall when we can enjoy it more!            *** The weather in my neck of the woods***   HOLY SMOKES IT IS HOTTTTTT!!!!! Not nearly as hot as some of you (Sandra) but shoot it is hot enough for me!    Monday  -  Sunny 90 and humid  🔥🔥 Tuesday  - Partly sunny, 86 Wednesday  - Partly sunny, 83  Thursday  - Partly sunny, 79  😍 Friday  - Sunny, 83 Saturday  - Partly sunny, 87 Sunday...

" A Tree Grows in Brooklyn " by Betty White! I will post a review of it later this week. But it was wonderful!!  FAVORITE QUOTE FROM A BOOK I READ:  "From that time on, the world was hers for the reading. She would never be lonely again, never miss the lack of intimate friends. Books became her friends, and there was one for every  mood." -Betty White, A Tree Grows in Brooklyn WHAT BOOKS DID I BUY/BORROW THIS WEEK:    I purchased "Anne Frank" - as I just really really want to read it again!  and " Big Summer " by Jennifer Weiner to read on my vacation later this month!  I borrowed " The Unquiet Bones...
