Hi Kyra,
I’m sorry it’s taken so long to write back. How have you doing with the heat and bad weather? I know it’s been very challenging for everyone there in that area of the country. We’re having the usual monsoonal moisture with high humidity and thunder clouds over the mountains. . Lots of repairs going on at our house right now. We had the AC in the shed repaired (yay.!), had a gutter added to the shed on the artificial turf side because of runoff from the roof causing holes in the bed for the turf. Yes, the turf is going to be repaired too. We’re also having a new ac and heater(have to replace the old one due to electron not matching newer ACs) installed on Thursday. Our current one is old and rusty and probably not very reliable at this time of its life. Damon had to replace the irrigation timer yesterday as it died. The original one was for inside use only! Don’t know why the previous owners didn’t use one for outside. And last but not least today one of the cables on our sun sail broke so all four cables wi have to be replaced. It’s been one thing after another?? My little car is completely fixed and passed smog for another year. Turned out it was a coil pack for cylinders 1 and 4 that was bad. All four new spark plugs and the coil pack and it’s running better than it has in quite awhile. The stress at work is easing a bit as we have gotten used t the new programming. Still have some issues but they seem to be able to b worked around. My last craft fair was ok, didn’t make as much but still enjoyed it. I’m busy making more scarves and also some nylon net scrubbies that my mother in law makes. The crochet up really quick but cutting the ne is time consuming. Love having the shed ac up and running. Time to head to bed. Hope you’re doing good and staying safe. I won’t wait s long to write next time. Promise!?? Colleen |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: Well let's see, Sunday before last we got hit by another bad storm. Lost our power and didn't get it back until Tue. morning. All the lines were on the ground. Elec. co. came first then the next day charter showed up and the fun began. Three techs later they told us it might be 2 months or longer before they could get the lines off the ground. We still had cabel and internet even though the lines were on the ground. They showed up this morning and at 4:30 this afternoon our lines were back up. We had no internet or phones while they did all this. Hopefully no more storms. I hate to hear your having so much stress at work. I know that's no fun. Hope it gets better soon. How did you do at your last craft fair? I know you will be happy to get your craft area where you can work in it again. We have a split unit. Air condition is electric and heating is gas and I love it. The only plants I have this year are the ones Lexi and Eva gave me for mothers day. I can't do much in the way of gardening anymore. And my Allergiers have really flaired up this year. Glad to hear Damon's shot went okay. I agree he needs to find out why they put him to sleep this time. Glad you car is back up and running. It drives my crazy when mine isn't up a running. Well I'm off to watch the next episode of Dr. Who on Disney. There is a program about the beach boys I want to watch too. Stay safe and well. Love you Kyra |
