my townhouse (ALF) has become an Assisted Living Facility or Rehab
!
my son sought relief in the A/C
from 104 degree temperatures
and symptoms of
Ehrlichiosis.
!
the grands
needed time with their i-pads
and chimichangas
from Mexican Radio.
!
We all enjoyed cool time
on the couch,
a rebounder,
toys at Nana’s house
Netflix
in a tick free house.
warming up for Independence Day!
