Thursday July 23rd~

Waking up early, connecting with nature-
kitties, and having my quiet time are priorities 
to me, and they are non-negotiable....


 I am truly amazed, actually shocked that
 July has gone by so fast. Only the other day 
seems like Arvid left for Norway, and now July
 is soon coming to an end, but boy what a great
 month it has been, and it’s still not done.


Yesterday I did a little shopping. I actually 
found a few things I liked and something also
 for my mom. Was a happy, good day, even better 
because after shopping I took myself out to lunch.  
Very relaxing and just really good. I enjoyed it.


I fed kitties both in the morning and in the afternoon.  
They are too fast, as soon as they see me they run,
 but I leave them their food and clean water.  Blackie
 number 1 is now named WhitePaw. He’s all black 
but has white paws saw it yesterday afternoon 
as he was running away 😍 Legacy is the only
 one that "allows" me time to get a picture.


I have so much fruit at home that I’m starting 
to worry I will never be able to eat real food again. 
 I bought a whole watermelon again, several mangoes
 from my coffee shop.  Yes the owner of the coffee shop
 has a mango tree and sells them in the shop.  Best mangoes
 in a long time.  Strawberries. Blueberries. Bananas. Just so
much fruit.  With this heat the watermelon goes fast 🍉


Thursday today.  As a rule I do not cook on 
 Thursdays, but lately it seems like everyday is a
 Thursday.  Oh boy so loving this.  Have not decided
 where to go as yet but the day is still young.


Just a few more pictures of our Vancouver 
adventure.  Vancouver is beautiful, San Francisco is
 still my favorite.  If it were up to me I would do
 a different part of California every year. 


The United States of America is the most 
beautiful place I have ever seen. As the FIFA
 tourists said, “every state is like its own country.” 
 Absolutely agree. Every state has its own charm,
 its own history, its own culture. I love this country!


To all a very good day.  I love my mornings with Sniff.


The day will be what you make it, 
so rise, like the sun, and burn...
