Here's my second (and maybe last) layout today for the Pawsitively Clawsome challenge. I really should go and do some housework. lol
We are back from our little camping trip to the mountains. It was kind of rainy and cool. Nights were in the 40’s. But suppose to warm into the high 90’s by mid week.
So just chilling a little before unloading the trailer. And getting a much needed shower.
Happy to be back home. Hope everyone had a great 4th!

Yeah, I'm not made for this weather any more. 20 years ago, I would have tolerated it much better. It's currently 94 and our dew point dropped a little to 65%. Not much help! LOL!

So glad it looks like you will be safe from the storm!blbabe1234 wrote: ↑Sat Jul 06, 2024 1:20 pmHi cherries. Got alot of stuff done yesterday but never got a chance to cycle the storm shutters through. Worked out because DH was able to help me and 3 got stuck and he had to fix them. So we're good there.
We are now going to be on the clean side of Beryl, so only looking at a couple of inches of rain and 50 mph winds. And that's if she keeps going towards the Central Texas Coast. If she moves further north/east, we will get even less. Which is fine by me.
I got MMC #2 done yesterday.
And this morning, got MMC #3 done
Now that Beryl is a lesser threat to me and South Texas, I can scrap more.

Hello Cherries!
We’ve been so busy I haven’t had time to pop in and say hi. It’s Saturday afternoon and we’re at a go kart racing place. We still have a 30 minute wait. We’ve really enjoyed the past few days but it’s definitely WAY too hot for us!!!!! We sweated through downtown Nashville on Wednesday.
Thursday my 2 sisters in law and I had quite the adventure. Joe and Robin’s entire family, Steve and brother Jim went tubing on the creek and river that runs through their barn property. So Robin, Paulla and I drove a side by side, a new Jeep truck and an old pickup truck through the fields and overhanging trees down to the point where they were getting out. Halfway through the side by side ran out of gas! So we all got into the Jeep and got gas the back to the truck and side by side. We made it down to the drop off point and then Paulla and I piled into the side by side and Robin drove back to the barn. It was SUPER hot and Paulla and I hung in for dear life. Lol! We got a selfie and she called it 3 HOT mamas!!! That will be a fun page to scrap! There were 16 tubers in all and they had great fun. Steve wound up getting caught under a tree and had to extricate himself because he was last in the line! He was a little rattled but eventually got himself freed. Whew!!!
Then after a full day of visiting and eating and people arriving Joe brought out the fireworks. He had 2 wheelbarrows full!!! It was quite the display! Great pictures to scrap too!
Yesterday we got the boys Noah is 20. Garrett will be 14 and his friend Cam who’s also 13 and went to Dave and Busters where they had a blast.
So we’ve been really busy! It’s an hour’s drive from Joe and Robin’s to where they’re staying. But it’s all interstate and not bad!
And then we leave on Tuesday for the long trip home at last! Our flight leaves at 7 am and we get to Ketchikan around 4 pm. Too late to catch the ferry. So we’ll stay the night and then go home on Wednesday. I can hardly wait!!! It will be nice to get back to cooler weather and a LOT less traffic!!!! Lolol!
Michele and the boys leave tomorrow to go back home. They’ve had a great time too. Garrett’s dad came over from Alabama (only an hour away too!) and is taking Garrett for the rest of July. That will be nice!
It’s been good to see everyone but I wish I’d had more time with Michele. It’s okay though. I’ve got lots of pictures to go through!
Have a spectacular Saturday Cherries!!!!!

We popped over to see the babe a little bit yesterday afternoon after lunch. As we were headed home we could see dark clouds all around the valley. When we got to our neighborhood we found several trees down in the street! A microburst blew through while we were gone. We checked on all our umbrellas and outdoor furniture. Collected pillows, towels and pool toys that were strewn about. No damage for us thank goodness. We are getting a new tree planted in the backyard on July 17th, so hoping we don’t have any more of the nasty wind gusts then.
I didn’t wake up in time to go for my walk. It was 89º at 6:15 this morning. So I decided to do some laundry and clean up a bit. Maybe I’ll go for a swim later, but I really wanted to get in my craftroom and get busy.
I have been working on stinkerbelle’s sketches the past couple days. I wanted to try to get them all done so I don’t forget! Haha I have 2 completed and the base page made for a third, just waiting on birthday pics of my 2 yr old grandson’s party tomorrow afternoon to complete it. Now to get busy on the last one!

We aren't even using the pool! It's so warm it's not refreshing. I can't remember a year not taking the chill off the water with the heater, but it hasn't gone at all this year. And it's like bath water. And my sister went out one afternoon and had the heat get to her, she looked terrible in our pool room where we usually relax until we are dry. And rain? We had a downpour on the 4 the for about a half hour, but nothing before or since.
I plan on scrapping too. I finished MMC #3 last night so I'm moving on to challenges.
My gardening is going to be trimming the one rose bush that's taken off for the roof of the house! So after that, I am done.
You bet! I like the initial chill off but it needs to be cool.
I LOVE Janis Joplin, and I'm thinking Billie Holiday ALSO sang that, but I'm not for sure lol anyway now I'm in the mood to put on Janis!Charleneanne wrote: ↑Sat Jul 06, 2024 12:52 pmUgh hot here still too. Predicted to b 112! I have noticed if I go anywhere or do anything at all out of doors no matter how brief, I set down on the sofa and fall asleep for an hour or two after. Drugstore and quick trip to grocery yesterday and came home—poof I’m asleep!!
So Indoors today it is. lol. A bit of tidying and card making. Boys will b here tonight for supper. But no cooking. Got steak rolls, deli lunch meat/cheese for sandwiches. Also veggies for dipping and a big bottle of ranch dressing. Makes me think of the song “Summertime”. Summertime and the livin’ is easy. . . Etc. lol
Stay cool. Be creative. Enjoy Saturday!
Well lol I’m not sure I heard Janis Joplins version. I’m a bit ahem older And mostly being a teen of the 1960’s I hear The Righteous Brothers in my head for that song.JollyHollyScraps wrote: ↑Sun Jul 07, 2024 10:11 amI LOVE Janis Joplin, and I'm thinking Billie Holiday ALSO sang that, but I'm not for sure lol anyway now I'm in the mood to put on Janis!Charleneanne wrote: ↑Sat Jul 06, 2024 12:52 pmUgh hot here still too.
