Hi Charlene @cerb Glad your daughter made it to Puerto Rico safely after the bumpy start of the journey.

@Rock_chick I bought a denim jacket from Kohl's years ago that I treasure. I got it on sale, probably because the sleeves were so long for a 'missy' size. It's not often I'm able to get something long sleeved off the rack that will accommodate my long arms.

Charlene--I did the bioluminescent bay trip when I was in Puerto Rico. It is a great experience. I would love to go back to Puerto Rico and had planned to do that last November but the hiurricane ruined the plans.

It was 93 degrees when I came home. When it cools down some, I hope to go out and rake up and bag the trimmings from yesterday's attack on the Boxwood.

I see that one of the Kipling bags had made it into my state. I think it is funny that the one I ordered the day after the other is the one I will be getting first.

Hope you get rid of those migraines for good, Charlene. This month's book was T"he Tea Girl of Hummingbird Lane: A Novel" by Lisa See. There is one part of the book (fairly early) that was so upsetting to me that I had to "talk myself" into reading the rest. It was a pretty good book. Next month will be "free read" where we can talk about any books we read rather than concentrate on one. Our group dwindles in the summer when some go back to places with cooler climates. Several have another home or condo elsewhere or regularly rent a place to get out of the heat. I think my neighborhood loses at least a third of its population over the summer. Have to say sometimes I am tempted to go elsewhere for a few weeks, but......

The TSV sunglasses have officially been returned. One day they are in Indiana and the next day.....

I gave up trying to understand it

Bernie--There is no logic to the routing of packages. If you really want the item, then the most circuitous route and carrier will be chosen. Same for returns.

I just returned from 40 minutes of gathering up trimmings from the boxwood I trimmed yesterday and bagging it. I definitely have to go back and even it up as some of the fallen trimmings hid some areas that didn't get my TLC. Then after I get t hat done, the other half need to be done. At least, I had company as my neighor mowed his lawn.
