Living

with Jim and Gayle

August, 2024

We completed two big projects this month.  We finished putting river rock in the border area where we had poured new curbing to keep the grass away from the brick wall.




We had the old brown bathtub reglazed.  Jim then installed a new toilet and shower doors.








Jim made barriers for the pickleball courts to keep the balls from rolling between the front courts and the back courts.


We're enjoying the bounty from my garden, making such things as carrot soup, chicken pesto spaghetti with blistered tomatoes, blistered tomato pasta, and pesto/panko crusted salmon with yellow squash.


I've made pepper jelly, cowboy candy, and pepper sauce with the jalepenos that I'm growing.




I'm still amazed at the wonderful cantalope from my garden.


I went with my friend, Joan, to her mountain vacation home to help her.


I went to a second ladies pool party.  It was very enjoyable.


Bo had another seizure this month, less than three weeks after his previous seizure.  Consulting with the vet, we have slightly increased his phenobarbitol dosage.
