summertime, and the living is, well, moving on at warp speed


meet our new kitten named Benny (for Benadryl)

a/k/a Elsa by our three-year-old Molly

Pretty rescued three kittens in June –

two were adopted – poor Benny stayed on

Molly has joined Big Sis Ella for tennis lessons from Miss Sherry

Molly, Nana, Ella, and Nana’s sister Aunt Darlene

(Aunt Darlene and Dawne came from Upstate, Dawne took pics)

Ella will be six years old in October –

graduated to deep end this summer

Molly has fun with Naynay and her Unicorn floaties

Aunt Darlene and Dawne brought their dog Gabriel

swimming makes us so tired

Can somebody keep these little girls from growing up so fast?

I recently ran into Dot Ryall, a dear friend of many lifetimes, who told me she followed the adventures Pretty and I have with our granddaughters on Facebook. She asked me if I had known how much love I had to give at this point in my life to these two precious little girls? I told her both Pretty and I had been overjoyed to discover the love we shared for Ella and Molly. Dot nodded and reminded me of our conversations years ago when her grandchildren were their ages. At that time I never envisioned having grandchildren of our own, but in the blistering heat of the summer of 2025, our lives move on with them, our families and friends, and you, our cyberspace followers who share this journey we’re making at warp speed.

Stay cool, and stay tuned.

    Sheila, I love this! Our seven-year-old RaynaMay has been with us the last ten or so days from Colorado. We have had so much fun cousin time! She has gotten to spend so much time with three of her Texas cousins. Time is certainly moving at warp speed!

    Well, perhaps Benny has been sent to wear off a little of the speed of time? Welcome to your family little girl, you lucked out there!

      Perhaps, because Benny moves at warp speed until time to eat or sleep!

    What is this? Time is running off again? It’s too hot everywhere. Time needs to sit and take a little nap.

    As for the kitten, they have a way of turning up and staying for a many years long nap.

      Time is out of control – as is Benny the kitten.
