Keekee Speaks

This heat is really wearing me out. There has been no break in these high temperatures all summer. I do not remember when was the last time the daily high was under 90 degrees. I sure do appreciate my air conditioning this year.

Each week a friend of mine who hosts an internet radio show will send out an email blast about his show. He wants to remind people to listen, but he also wants to stimulate discussions, so he asks a question in the email and reads a bunch of the answers on air. Today he wanted everyone to name a song with the word or a variation of the word “rain” in it. My first thought was “Raindrops Keep Falling on my Head,” from the Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid movie.

Brrrr! it is pretty cold today! I had to kick the thermostat up a couple degrees to try to take the chill off the air at my house. I usually keep the thermostat set at 70 degrees, but this morning I can’t seem to get warm. I set the thermostat for 72 degrees and hope that it makes the house a little warmer.

My back yard now has several plants and flowers in it.  I’m looking to make a nice garden where I can go and relax and enjoy natures beauty.  I would love to have a nice garden benches to sit on.  I don’t want something that I would have to replace in a couple of years either.  With that in mind, I think a couple of nice stone garden benches would be perfect.  That’s not something to keep up or repair.

I have seen a beautiful garden that was a memorial garden with a couple of memorial benches in it and it was just a perfect place to sit around the water garden they had to feel closer to their departed loved one.  See, that’s another good thing about stone benches, if you ever move, you can always take them with you for your new garden at your new house.  They also really add that special something to your garden that makes it stand out from all of the others too.

I decided to watch the weather today since it’s so rainy and dreary.  I was hoping to see that it was going to clear up and be nice again.  Well was I disappointed or what?  Next week, it’s supposed to be in the 40′s at night and maybe get up to the 80′s through the day.  Can you say AUTUMN IS HERE!!  I used to love fall but this year, I’m not so sure about it all.
