Good Tuesday Morning.
The sky is odd this morning with a mix of shine and cloud.
It is warm already in the house OR perhaps it never really cooled down.
We have a few really good fans that kept us cool during the night so that we could sleep.
It is another reminder to get the Central Air Conditioning serviced.
I have to make that call.
But for now we are comfortable with the fans.
Yesterday we squeaked in a walk before the temperature was too warm.
By after work it was too warm for us to go.
We decided to work in the backyard for our exercise and additional fresh air.
Alvin loves to sit outside.
In fact, earlier this morning he just sat outside for a few minutes before we had to return upstairs for his Momma to get ready for work.
Wow, that was a mouth full.
Anyway, he does loves to relax on the deck.

How are you doing today?
I hope that you are well.
Question for you?
Do you choose your outfit the night before bed for the next day?
Or are you a let’s see what strikes me kind of person in the morning?
Well generally I am the first.
I like to be organized.
In the morning our routine was pretty much set before COVID19 hit.
Since being home it has changed somewhat but I still choose my clothing right down to the underwear the night before bed.
Okay, when you get dressed ….
Is there sometimes and I have found now that I am home that I just cannot make a decision?
Nothing seems to fit right?
Nothing seems comfortable?
Nothing works?
I know that I have put on some weight.
Yup, another thing we can blame on COVID19 which is a lot easier than blaming oneself.
Okay, I know it is not COVID19’s fault (and here I am speaking about it as if it is a person, oh my goodness sake).
But then the sun comes out and you put on something that makes you feel like a million dollars even with the extra weight.
The colour suits you and the cut is amazing.
It is that little top in your closet or perhaps a pair of pants.
That you always feel good wearing.
For some reason it does not hit the top of the list often enough.
I have that top on this morning.
The colour is good on me.
Turquoise blue.
It has an embossed dragonfly with some gold sequins and other coloured ones.
The cut is good.
My buddha belly is semi disguised although not entirely.
It is just a top that was well made.
Short sleeves.
Has the right amount of stretch to be flattering.
I love this top.
I was just thinking that it would be fantastic to have more of this top.
But alas it was a hand me down and I have no idea of where it came from and most likely they don’t make this anymore.
But for this moment, for this day, I shall run with the feeling of a $million dollars$$.
Mr. Alvin has a vet appointment at lunchtime to check his ears.
I believe that he has an infection in his left one.
Better to be safe than sorry.
He has been uncomfortable the past couple of days and I surely do not wish him to suffer.
Okay, time to start drinking that “to go” mug of coffee.
Have an awesome day.
I hope that you have that “turquoise top with the dragonflies.”
Something that makes you feel special.
Cause you are, you know.
Living my life with kindness and respect and of course a tinch of fun.
I/We, shall remain,
Always, Carol & Alvin
