KA....BOOM!!!

  Already summer is well underway. We have past the summer solstice which is a bummer for me since it means daylight is starting to wane again.....even the sky seemed to agree with me that day....




Yet there is still plenty of summer living to come....

Such as getting outside to walk... went 201% of my goal, thanks to unruly technical settings...  

Time for taco B-day party!


And a guys' red letter day hamburger dinner at a friend's house...(matching shirts not intended)

Including a breakfast of PNW steel cut oatmeal with almonds, walnuts, craisins, butter,  half and half.  Yum!  Note the left handed spoon, ya-all!!

  In our park there is this ground cover nasty weed that grows and spreads like......a weed.  I've used commercial weed killer before but don't like the harm it may be doing to our environment as well as to me.  I have heard rumors of a "natural" harmless (unless you are a weed) concoction of white cleaning vinegar, Epsom salts and blue Dawn dish soap.  A friend gave me the formula awhile back.  I thought I would experiment with it.  I only mixed a half recipe in case it didn't it deliver the goods.  

                                                                     



Weeds Gone Wild!/      Vinegar Treat!  KA-BOOM!/  ALL dried up!!  Now I can enjoy spraying all those nasty varmints invading my yard....maybe I'll walk around the park with my spray bottle in tow and be Georgie WeedKiller....kind of like Johnny Appleseed.....

A few evenings ago I enjoyed a trip to MOD pizza for a fund raiser for Jake's La Cross team.  I've had their salads in the airport but have never tried their pizza.  It was yummy!  And Jake, you ask?  Poor fella,his folks had to rush him to the emergency room last night with  possible appendicitis.  Turned out it was a kidney stone.  Ouch.....  He is home sleeping now instead of riding the bus with his football team to camp.  Bummer.....  Yes, football camp.  He is a double athlete.

Gram G is on the fast track looking for the perfect job to fill her needs. That is taking a lot of my time these days.  And now my email is bombarded with potential jobs....some authentic, some scammy.

I've also been trying to get back to practicing the piano everyday for at least an hour.  I'm hoping to do a show in the fall.  I find I forget my own compositions when I don't keep playing them. OH..

This has been a good 14  KA...BOOM days in the life of Grandma G.
