Can you see that thick layer of pollen all over everything in the photo? It's not supposed to be here yet. Guess it doesn't matter though. Swollen, itchy eyes are no worse now than they'd be in May I suppose.
Billy is here putting in my new air conditioner/furnace. He says 16 years was a good run on the old one. OK.
I want to thank everyone who sent out prayers and good wishes for Grandmother Billie's recovering. She's still a sick lady, but much improved. Not in imminent danger of death at this point.
They tell us rain is coming. I hope so. It doesn't take long with no rainfall for things to get dry around here. Already, forest fires are popping up. And maybe the rain will clean some of this pollen out of the air.

Cheers that Grandmother Billie is improving, slowly but surely! She remains in my prayers as do those who need prayer and their families.
I'm watching the pollen mess march toward us with some dread. Why do I not remember the yellow coating on everything from the years I lived in Memphis, Louisville, and Waco?? It's horrible here and you have to run the windshield wipers before you can drive.
Shame on me, I've been working on a new project this week and have a baby quilt to make - but in modern, not baby colors. My UFOs wait once again. I may get some applique ready on a UFO and that would count as progress for this week.
Hugs!

We don't have much pollen yet. We woke up this morning to snow! I'd rather have snow than pollen.

Your dogwood tree is simply beautiful! Looks like you have a very inviting neighborhood (of course, minus the pollen LOL).

WOW! THAT'S the view from the front side of your house? I'd be either on the porch or looking out the window 24/7! GLORIOUS!!!!! And my prayers are included for Grandmother Billie! (Note: Expect package via UPS Monday the 26th!) LOVE YOU!
