Paver began to experience symptoms of hyponatremia, a condition resulting from low sodium levels in the blood.

It tasted OK. Did a pretty good job.

Took Bo out to the lake. Had a great time.

Had some storms move through. T-Storm Warnings for our area. The EAS went off numerous times.

Chuck's doing fine. He does have the major arterty blockage in his left leg. Most likely he'll be going to the city to get that issue resolved.

Not much else going on

Good morning beachy. (((HUGS))) to you too.

You’ve never had fruit and / or whipped cream on your waffles?

We eat them that way quite often.

I’ve had some fresh peaches on occasion, but I just don’t like cherries or blueberries on them.

about the only way I like cherries (dark red ones) or blueberries are fresh.

I like my pancakes and waffles with butter and syrup - only.

I’m the same way about my coffee - no flavors added, thank you.

We got about three quaters of an inch of rain. Much needed I might add.

There's some more in the forecast for the next few days.

I am not a picky eater with most meals. I can have waffles with butter and syrup or all “dressed up”.

Now coffee, it has to be black and strong.

I was a little surprised when I walked outside in shorts and a light t-shirt. I was on my way to pick up Little Tann from his cousin’s house. He didn’t complain about it.
