My mom did call this morning. I would have called her if she hadn’t called me by 11. Her charades are so silly. She opened with ‘I’m headed for Riddle (the hospital) because my diabetes is out of whack’. Pure shock value. She was going mainly to get her prescription. Seems her 4th of July wasn’t that great, she ended up in a diner with her boarder and then they went to the movies in the pouring rain and at 10 at night to see ‘Evan Almighty’ which she liked. We did not discuss when she will come here again. I made Sean apologize for the hassle of Tuesday. She said she had everything on her patio. She could have tested herself to drive at least half the way and someone could have met her and followed her too.

Brian took off today and we may go up to the next town for their Friday night art stroll. Or we could go to Booth’s Corner Farmer Market. Sean is working tonight.

Anyway, here is a Stargazer lily that the rain broke off. The entire house smells so delightful.

That vase is skinny and tall, rather neat. It was from a special Pier One buy out Big Lots had.

Also-I’m very close to a big cross stitch finish! Can’t wait to share.
