WEEKEND RECAP
It was the County Fair last week. We went on Thursday (Military Day and hubby got in free). As much as I LOVE the fair, it was a miserable day with high heat, high humidity, horrific air quality from the fires all around us and it was REALLY bothering my eyes. Friday we were going to spend the day antiquing in a town to the north and have dinner out, but after we got there and made the first stop I just didn’t feel right so we stopped for a late lunch and came home so I could rest more. Saturday and Sunday were just spent lounging around the house and getting the laundry done as well as watching the closing OLYMPIC ceremonies.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
THE WEATHER OUTSIDE
This week looks like it will be beautiful, sunny and in the high 70’s. The real determinant will be wind direction and the smoke from ALL the local fires.
ON MY MIND
I got my stitches out last Wednesday, but incisions were still infected so was put on an additional week of antibiotics. I’ve been doing so well before this with staying healthy that it concerns me to be backsliding. Being immunocompromised really isn’t any fun!

FAVORITE PHOTOS FROM THE CAMERA
Here are a few of my favorites from the fair last week. The pigs are one of my favorite next to the bunnies. And my friend, Teri took 3rd place in the quilts.

Hello Beautiful!
Sorry that the weather isn’t cooperating and “smoking” you out of things. Lol But what you did get to catch at the fair looked so fun! We watched the closing ceremonies too and I thought the Tom Cruise thing was pretty spectacular. He’s still got it for an old dude.
Continued prayers for speedy healing and for a very blessed week ahead (with no smoke and perfect temps! )

So far this week it’s starting out beautifully – mid 70’s and minimal smoke š Have a WONDERFUL week my friend.
Hope all goes well and that wounds heal quickly. Looks like a great fair. Have a great week
Unfortunately the fair seems to be shrinking each year. Hubby and I talked that we need to start going every other year or so š Wounds are 90% and I’m finally feeling human again thank you!
Stitches? Oh no, I’m going to have go see what I missed. Hope all is well. Love all the pictures and inspirational quotes in your post. Hope you have a wonderful week!
So glad you’re back my friend. Hope life has settled down in your corner of the world. š
