A darling graphic! So happy to hear you got some rain. We had it off and on all day yesterday! But it helps in cooling down the hot temps!

I had some swim pictures to post from my new camera and had several ready to go and the computer hung up on me. Maybe I can do it later when my back stops hurting. Been working on Red Hat Luncheon for next Friday! Since I am in charge, I chose the Red Lobster! Love it!

[JustAmy]

Good Morning, Jaycee. Thank you.

Billie made that darling graphic
and after I told her I was looking for a poem, she found a poem for me.
Thanks, Billie.

FReepers are the kindest, nicest people.
FReepers at Amy's Place are special.

Thanks.

Swiss National Day - Fireworks and Bonfires

A Little History on this very special day in Switzerland

[JustAmy]

That's great news, Dolly. Thank you.

I don't get to a health food store,
but I will get some dark chocolate.
I guess that I should quit using Nestles and
make Marissa's chocolate milk from old fashion baking cocoa.

Hope you are having a great day.
