After a nice phone chat with my grandson, I went for a routine electrocardiogram (EKG).

Did laundry early this morning. It's too hot & humid to do anything active for the rest of the day.

Since the weather was so nice, I spent all day outdoors trimming rows of hedges and bushes until 5PM.
Have to repair my chain link fence tomorrow. Dang bear climbed over it again last night and really bent it over. Will have to put the top bar between trees to straighten the bow out of it.

Spending long days at the golf course, riding mowers and running the maintenance crew. Wearing me out. Two more weeks of this. Staff and members awesome as they all work together. Actually have got to play two rounds of golf in the past 10 days.
Second daughter made the trip to see us today. Hadn't seen her in about 6 weeks. Family is everything!!!
Life is good.... Life is good.....

Family can be everything until it isn't. I'm glad your family is everything. Enjoy them! You are a lucky person.

I went shopping for enough food to last us for the next 5 days till we head back to cold 🥶🥶South Australia where we live , we’ve been enjoying the Gold Coast (Queensland) weather of mid 20c or about 75 F for the last 3 weeks ,so we will be shivering when we arrive home to about temps of 13c (55f)
We drove up here which is 2.200 km from home or in miles about 1400 , we arrived here in 3 full days driving , however we are taking out time to be a tourist on our way back as we don’t have any commitments at home so we will take a week getting home including visiting hubs sister &BIL for 2 nights that live in New South Wales.
So I may go missing for over a week from tomorrow as we may not have any internet coverage on our big journey home to freezing 🥶 SA

Went to the ER for a UTI, wound up having surgery to put a stent in since I have a 6 mm kidney stone that will not pass by itself. Have to call to make an outpatient appointment to have it blasted. So much fun.

So much fun. Nkat Had one blasted a few years ago. Easy as pie!! Passed 5 or 6 of them over the years. Cut open for one in 1981. No fun. They say the older we get, the less likely to have more stones. Hope that's correct!!!! Good luck!!!

Did nothing today... NOTHING!! A group of us played golf at a course about an hour north of us yesterday. On the 9th hole, when I hit my drive something in my right hip popped. Struggled the rest of the round. Took today off to mend. No golf this weekend, so will give me three days to heal.
Need to mow our yard over the weekend. Trying to convince the wife I'm too sore to mow, but okay to play golf. She ain't buyin' it!!! :>)

No golf today due to a tournament at the course. Wouldn't have gone, anyway, since wife invited 15 to 17 folks for lunch. Thank goodness for decent weather 'cause 17 more folks won't fit in our house!!!
Everyone supposed to begin arriving 10ish. 9:00 wife says, "I am worried I don't have enough food! Could you run to the grocery store for me?" "Of course, dear!" :>)((( I had already parked the truck up the street so everyone would have room to park close to the house. Oh, well. What one doesn't do to keep Mama happy.
Of the 15, or so... 7 hardnosed MAGA nutcases. (This is red, redneck Kansas!) 6 of us with common sense. 2 or 3 middle-of-the-roaders. Could be an interesting afternoon. Wish us well!!! :>)

Well, survived. In fact, a very nice day. Great temps so most of the day was spent out on the back deck. Everyone conducted themselves like adults. Only one off color MAGA comment all day.
Down side... ate way too much!!!!

Played golf this morning. Will watch the Chiefs later this afternoon.
Missed the last two days of golf. Friday, one of my wife's recently widowed friends had new appliances being delivered. She asked that we be there to make sure they were installed correctly... and to show her how all the new buttons would work!!! Helped her clean out the refrigerator and move things into coolers. Everything went smooth.
Yesterday, we had rain most of the day. The rain came nice and easy. Really needed it!!! 1.10". Not enough, but we will certainly be thankful for what we got. Watched K-State beat Missouri in football. Game had two weather delays due to lightning.
