Some August Happenings

 

August 13 in Seal Beach, I was happy to be with my daughters and grandson

There have been good things and not so good things so far in August.

The AC in my car is not working. The next day, the AC at home stopped working too. The repairman said the motor needs replacement, but because is 32 years old, we should install a new one, the whole deal.

My daughter S and my grandson and his girlfriend, flew down from Utah for a few days, to see Drake in concert. It was nice meeting his gf, she seems like a nice girl, pretty compatible with T.  It was very nice to see S and spend time with her. On Sunday, the 5 of us went to Seal Beach, it was a lovely day. Walked by the pier, had dinner at Hennesy's and just had a nice day.

                                                               The calm before the storm

A week after they left, we had another visitor, Hilary, it was not a welcome visit. We had 3 days of heavy rain. L and I, and Lulu, just stayed at home. After the tropical storm/hurricane.... we were left with broken branches from our beautiful Crepe Myrtle on the front lawn, and big broken branches from the large tree in the backyard.

I will talk to our gardener tomorrow about them.

Because of the AC, and the tropical storm damage, I have been upset and anxious,

and I feel like crying for every little thing. 

I hope I get back to my usually positive cheerful self soon :)

Maybe Friday evening L and I can go for a nice walk to the Arboretum
