A QUOTE:

Eating lunch with a friend. Trying to do a decent day's work. Hearing the rain patter against the window. There is no event so commonplace but that God is present within it. - Frederick Buechner -

NOTES:

Today has been partly cloudy with a high temperature of 93 degrees. I had lunch with Charley and Bill. Brianna was our waitress today. I went to the post office and then came home. I just can't bear to be outside in this hot weather. I took a nap with Itty Bitty. I have felt better today, especially this afternoon and evening after my nap. I put treats outside for the cats at around 7:20 p.m. but I sure didn't stay out long because it was still very hot. I appreciate the emails that I receive from everyone, from Washington state, from Oregon, from California, from Maryland, from Illinois, from Texas, and many from Oklahoma and phone calls from Arizona. If I missed your state and you have written to me recently, I apologize, and you let me know and I will mention it next time. I do appreciate every one who reads the Good Things. You don't have to write me, just so you read and enjoy the Good Things.

The cats are fine. Smokey is on the desk near me and Rascal is lying in the floor close to my shoes that I kicked off a little while ago. I have seen all of the kitties this evening.

Have a nice Tuesday. Everett
