What a great fit and those colors are lovely on you. For whatever other items you had to return last month, you sure have a winner in this dress. <br />Bravo to your hair dresser for lowering prices on short hair cuts. That is only fair!! My gal was flabbergasted that I didn't want her to spend a half hour curling and straightening and curling and blow drying and teasing and curling my hair. I told her I would just hang my head out the car window to let my hair dry on the way home! Ha!<br />Wish you could give me swimming lessons now that you are becoming a pro. I manage to get up and down the length of the pool but it 'ain't pretty'! onceuponatimehappilyeverafter.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14496967140182523960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4615566302085141880.post-3687519151489930772018-08-03T08:52:14.514-04:002018-08-03T08:52:14.514-04:00It is!It is!Juhlihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14440147890620303894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4615566302085141880.post-57400187677356563672018-08-03T08:51:45.608-04:002018-08-03T08:51:45.608-04:00You are so right about the dentist although we hav...You are so right about the dentist although we have been swamped with dental visits. Hubby is in the midst of the implant process and the dog had 4 teeth extracted yesterday during a cleaning. I'm the lucky one!<br />Juhlihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14440147890620303894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4615566302085141880.post-71408783185724094962018-08-03T02:06:11.918-04:002018-08-03T02:06:11.918-04:00Lovely to read about your month!

Sure, I still have to return the ones that didn't fit, but at least there is some success. I figure I take more than one size in the dressing room, so what's the difference?<br />Fabulous month!!<br />XOXO<br />Jodie<br />www.jtouchofstyle.com<br />Jodie's Touch of Stylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16453914318183037853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4615566302085141880.post-52516781422239500692018-08-02T13:58:34.269-04:002018-08-02T13:58:34.269-04:00Wow, what a magnificent amount of socializing you ...Wow, what a magnificent amount of socializing you had and some really fun sounding activities. I've never been on a pontoon boat but it seems like it would be relaxing.

Hours of preparation culminated in the amateur rodeo @ the beginning of the month with 8-12 hour days in the concession at the actual event. Friends perform at the Calgary Stampede in July so days ended with me watching the televised wagon races. My mom is getting frail at 85 yrs and there were 3 appointments to tend to awa some meal preparation. There was lots of socialization with a trip to see cousins visiting from TX; a coffee date with a young cousin; lunch/scrabble with friends; the monthly afternoon card party with friends; lunch & visit with an old friend; afternoon on my cousin's pontoon boat one hot Sunday; Lexi time with my 9 mo old great niece. The garden bounty peaks in July with rhubarb, kale, raspberries & beans preserved. I don't think there's anything better than the new potatoes creamed with onions and dill; yum! There was a native dance concert featuring Metis, First Nations & Maori performers and a fiddlers performance the following week. I got to enjoy the fruits of my labor with mornings/afternoons on the porch with a cup of coffee or cold drink and a good book (currently reading "Eleanor Oliphant is completely fine" by Gail Honeyman). And people ask - what do you do all day?!Mona McGinnishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12234038212082778117noreply@blogger.com
