So maybe this is a little far in the distant past, but… The background is painted by Daily Texture, used mixer brush painting on red dino and did a lot of work on him to create the scene.
We’re off to the library, and coding class later for my granddaughter.
I’m still plugging along on Wolf Bound.
Enjoy your day!

It’s just like Christmas. I’ve had some of these daylilies for years, but every year, they pop out and it’s like opening a flowery Christmas present. I had these colors? Wow! This one just opened and I don’t remember having it at all. It’s the only one with this color anywhere in the yard.
Little ones will be here soon, so off to do my chores.
Hope you are having a fun-filled day!

My grocery store recently started offering different kinds of mushrooms. I tried these for fun and they’re delicious. I fried them.
I finally managed to get minimum word count on Wolf Bound and am nearly at 72K. Still writing. It’s really hard to get anything done with grandkids being here but little bit, by little bit, I’m getting some of it done.
Hope your day is super fine! We feel like 91 degrees already–and the air is like hot soup!

I have some tried and true flowers I plant every year because I know they can withstand our awful heat and humidity–zinnia, mums, marigolds, daylilies, salvia. But I hadn’t tried growing the blazing star and I thought it was sooooo pretty, I would see how it did. Plus, I love purple flowers. Several are getting ready to bloom and butterflies love it. This is the first to bloom. It was hiding behind my crepe myrtle. Even though they are supposed to love sun, in our too hot environment, the first to bloom was the one in partial shade.
Grandkids are landing in on me momentarily. We’re not supposed to have storms until this afternoon, so we’ll go to the pool this morning.
Have a great day!!!

When wolves were wolves where some of them were on their long journey to domestication.
So I had an overnight guest last night. My granddaughter has been begging me to sleepover. She’s so cute. We swam for 2 1/2 hours yesterday, read books, and she went to her first official coder class. It was just setting up her character and background which she has done for tons of things. She’s on the Ninja Coders’ white band, so this afternoon is her next one.
It’s only 69 this morning, woohoo! We had wild storms last night. I was afraid they would keep her awake, but she was completely out once her head hit the pillow. lol
We’re supposed to have afternoon thunderstorms, so we’ll try to go swimming this morning and hope the water isn’t too cold. It was cooler yesterday. She wants donut holes for breakfast, something we do sometimes on her overnight stays. One of the workbook pages she was doing was about a little granddaughter staying with her grandma and what she had to pack for the slumber party. Her eyes lit up when she read it and she said, “You picked this one because I’m staying overnight with you, didn’t you?”
She’s so funny. I have to enjoy it while I can before she’s too old and doesn’t want to stay with me. I’ve had her little brother too sometimes.
I haven’t been getting much word count done. I’m still editing which means taking out, revising, adding in, so it kind of all negates the word count.
I’m off to do something before she gets up.
Hope your day is super fine!

I just love them. I took the grandkids to the library because it was supposed to storm and it had gotten cooler, but it didn’t storm until later. So we picked out library books, then we bought used books on sale and walked through the next door park where we got to see this beautiful heron just waiting for me to capture it in a photo.
The kids were so good–3 and 7, just sitting on the steps nearby being quiet and sitting still while I drew as close to the heron as I could to take some shots of it.
We’re off to the pool this morning. Storms are coming around 2. And I’m taking my granddaughter in for coding class. The things little ones learn. It’s so neat!
Have a terrific day!

They are gentle giants and this one was tossed about by the violent rain and wind during the severe thunderstorms we had yesterday. Our electricity kept going out and the internet was out for a while so my granddaughter filled my lanterns with batteries and we brought out a board game and puzzles to do. After the storms subsided, my granddaughter and I went outside to pick up downed tree branches and pine cones and I found the moth in the grass. Not wanting my dogs to trample it, I coaxed him onto a branch and put him on top of the bistro table to dry out. This morning, he had flown off. Successful rescue mission. Yay! We had 3″ of rain yesterday.
Both grands will be here today. We were supposed to have storms all day, but they’re holding off until 1, yay! So I can take them swimming, though the temperature cooled down a lot, so it’s nice. It feels like 70, a welcome change. If they feel it’s too cool, we’ll go to the library.
Have a beautiful day!

The teeny tiny baby dragonfly landed on our diving swimming pool rings and was really hard to see. My daughter saw it and I had to take pictures. It was so cute.
I’m off to take my car in for a safety recall that’s a mater of life and death. They wouldn’t fix it before–2 years. So I finally have an appt and hope I don’t get stranded there.
Remember, teeny tiny baby dragonflies can be barely visible so watch out!
