Easy peasy - summer breezy,☀️🍉🍧🏖️


The days keep running out before my to-do list. But what’s new?

I painted, temple-ed, watered, ‘play’ed with Ret, melted popsicles, and picked up trash apples. 

Also, the regular…pickleball, movies, homemaking, doodling, crushing summer!

🔥 Hot jokes🤣
Why didn’t the sun☀️go to college?
It already had a million degrees. 

Why do bananas🍌wear sunscreen?
Because they peel.

Did you hear about the dog🐕who wears a swimsuit?
Apparently, it looks quite fetching. 

Sad news: one of these 2 folks will be US President. 

(Photos here)

One will read a teleprompter and behave civilly. 
One won’t read a teleprompter and behaves badly.
The outcome won’t be based on policy but rather personality.  Harsh reality.  I see a need for Trumala - the personality of one and the policy of the other.  Not happy here. 

I am so relieved that an all-knowing, all-powerful, all-fair perfect being is in charge.  Literally ‘thank God!’

The best news!  I see miracles everyday. Many; Abilities. Second chances 💍. Healing ❤️‍🩹. Opportunities. Relive travel memories. Recall lessons learned. My family being mine!!!  I’m so glad we are all connected and the technology that makes it happen so easily! 

I really, honestly and truly do love you with all my love forever!!! Stay cool 😎

August 4, 2024

To the coolest kids!!! I Wish your remaining summer days are filled with endless ice cream cones, bottomless shaved ice, plenteous popsicles and abundant shade.


Our week:
Lane had successful surgery to complete his DBS (Deep Brain Stimulation) procedure. In 2 weeks the implant system will be flipped on. He will attend clinic meetings with his team to learn the results of the surgery.

Yesterday I strolled through a few open houses in the newly built upper Daybreak villages.  I joined Lincoln, Carrie and Luke Howell. Good times. 

I enjoy assembling hundreds of irregularly shaped interlocking pieces 🧩!

Today was the highlight of my week. I was back in primary today!…as the 🎵singing time sub, standing in for Sister Clemen. It was so much fun.  We scooped a giant pretend ice cream cone as we sang. One child asked “why not use real ice cream?” I told them they could knock on Sister Clemen’s door next week, give the password “scriptures” and she’d give them the real deal 🍦.  J/K🤣

Afterward I still had time to join my nursery class and lead the weekly singing time there. Loved it!!!

Carrie Howell’s mail sometimes shows up in my US POB. But this is the first time I received a piece for Katherine Howell.  Who is she? Katherine Howell married KC Bell 15 years ago!!! 

Todays forecast: It’s gonna be HOT 🥵 
How hot is it?
It’s so hot, farmers are feeding their chickens 🐓 crushed ice🧊 to keep them from laying hard-boiled eggs 🥚.

We love you forever!🩷
