Monday 27-07-2015 – Take Your Pants for a Walk Day

Brings back empty coffee pot…fill’er up Tux!

Hmm, jean skirts used to be fave casual skirt years ago too!

Here are couple of pics from RW24 Bike Race:

AM Riders…

RW24 Finish Line – Winners!

Fave Acc. Band Squeezettes played Fri. PM at check point – fun!
Yes, spotted couple of riders as lion theme…but ridin’ too quick to snap pic…

I like jean skirts, KJ. But haven’t had one in years. I’m with team capri pant….so comfy. I’m always saying “poor you” to hubby because men can’t wear capris or 3/4 length sleeves. That 3-4 inch gap for skin exposure makes such a HUGE difference in temperature. I love 3/4 sleeves in the winter, but go almost exclusively sleeveless in the summertime (another thing men can’t do…unless they’re at the gym.) Love, love, love a sleeveless top.

It is hot…95! Tomorrow we’re getting a cold wave and temps. will be in the high 80s. Wee! Of course, there is nary a drop of rain anywhere. The plants and grass that looked so nice after our Spring rains are dry and dry.

Thanks for the link KJ. They are all precious but my fave is the wee gray kittah on the pillows.

Too sweet that Miss Abby and her guy, Big Sal, having noms and playtime.

Are you thinking of fostering 7 wk. old kit, JK?

That Italian soup is called Pasta e Fagioli, BB.

Shout out to MS and KM for helping on the uploading pics issues. Much appreciated.

This place looks awesome. Wonder what it would look like with real people living in it. You know, people with varying amounts of paperwork, hobbies and oh yeah, cats!

Thanks JK, that’s what I was thinking. Would go back better prepared, long pants, gloves and body pre-treated with bug repellant – got chewed on quite a bit for the few minutes I was there.

Good morning all, the rain has stopped here- for now. It’s still an overcast day but at least it isn’t bone chilling cold and I even have the doors open. I am a jeans person in Winter and capri pants or long shorts in Summer. I like to keep my swollen knees covered.
AV, glad you are not afloat, how are your fishes doing in their pond. Woohoo, roll on Friday for you. I am glad to hear that Big Sal still came for breakfast and flirting with Abby despite the wet conditions.
All the flooding I have encountered was as a child when camping. I have vivid memories of water flowing through the tent and things floating past, being carried complete with sleeping bag and put into the car for the night and even better once having to be pushed while in our trailer(basically a flatbed for carrying things on)over a flooded stream and culvert to higher ground and spending the night in a woolshed with about 30 other campers.
KJ, I would appreciate it if you turned the fans in my direction if you want to remove some of that heat. LOL, love the link.
JK, love the beautiful old houses and mature trees in your pics. Looks like the bike race was fun.
Joan, great idea about putting that recipe in the soup thread. I just may have to give it a try if I can find all the ingredients. I will get daughter to make me some chickpea pasta as I can’t eat wheat flour pasta. Oh abandoned cat carrier, time it was rescued. Wow, nice beach house but as you say it would look so different with people ‘stuff’ in it. LOL at the lazy kitties and their slapfight.
KJ, your potato creation sounds delish. I love crispy roast potatoes. Hope the storm didn’t linger.

Well, it never rained here although it was predicted to rain all day. The sky is actually blue and clear now! I had a lazy day. Took a nap, warmed up leftovers, washed the dishes, wrote a long email letter, and chatted with a friend. I had wanted to go to the post office today, but forgot all about it! LOL
I have the windows open with fans, but it’s SO humid. My plumber friend never made it over to check my AC like he planned. 🙁 The next two days age going to be even hotter, and hot even until Sat….. Oh, no! We are all gonna melt in here! LOL Well, we are finally getting “summer” weather. The water will be nice and warm for swimming for the kids at least.
Joan, glad that house at the end of your road is being worked on.
How do I find the soup thread?

Awww thanks MS!!!!!

MS, I noticed that Gus and Sadie have extended their reign of TDK. Perhaps Freddie is busy workout the tekkie concerns. I haven’t had any problems other than double postings. On my end, my ‘puter is slow and my phone didn’t seem to like TDK yesterday, but has made up and is friends with it today.
