Friday July 25th~

There's a reason we don't see
 the world in black and white...


 It is always good to wake up to a little group chat
 with our mom.  Yesterday she was feeling good so she
 decided to take a little walk outdoors.  Lucky us, because
 she sent us some beautiful pictures of their backyard in full 
bloom. NC as in Granite Falls is a little piece of heaven.
This is their backyard.  Vibrant colors everywhere.


We all need a place that is safe and wholesome 
enough for us to return for refuge.  For us it is our
 parents' home in Granite Falls, North Carolina.


Every morning while having breakfast we're on the
 lookout of the gray kitty.  He's super friendly and prances 
around with his buddy, another neighbors dog.  The neighbor
 opened his door to take doggie out for a walk and who runs
 out of the apartment?  None other than the grey kitty.


The Tesla Cybertruck has generated a lot of buzz, 
with reactions ranging from admiration for its unique
 design and capabilities to criticism for its aesthetics and 
practicality. Some find it a futuristic and innovative 
vehicle, while others see it as a impractical and ugly. 
 I find it interesting.  What do you think about it?


Yesterday we tried Applebees.  For some reason Arvid was
 very curious to try one of their appetizer combos.  Which 
he did.  He was so looking forward to it, but he sure didn't
 eat much of it.  When in doubt, I always have the salad. 
 I did, but the chicken tenders were overly battered and 
greasy.  Aside from that, the salad was not so bad.


It's Friday and it is staring on ou a bit milder note.  Has
 been this way the last few days.  Deceiving but nice.


Our bird feeder is out.  All we need is for the birds
 to show up.  Could it be the heat that is keeping them
 away.  Sniff and I keep hoping today will be the day.


Patience is not simply the ability to wait,
it's how we behave while we're waiting...
