COLD DARK ROOM

Next up Russia vs Croatia. Id venture to say neither team expected to get this far. Russia playing their hearts out, hosts of WC2018, have nothing to lose....they’ve earned some global respect.

Yes totally.

Ok... too funny!

Shed Painting Project/Update

So we have two sides completed, but are a bit disappointed with the shade. Just not as dark as expected. But, I think once we get all sides finished up, and the trim done, it will look better. Along with other fixins to the roof shingles, loose panels, etc.

Here is Before

Nice job. You seem to have a talent for painting. Like Kathy's daughter. Well done.

Oh good luck to hubby. And never mind the phone. Glad you didnt have a rifle [emoji6]

If I'd had a rifle then I would probably have been unable to resist! Mmmm elk

Never tasted it. So wouldn't know. I'll take your word for it. And at least you would be eating what you killed.

It's Clunker's monthly weigh in for his forum page... But he won't poop!
Been soaking for almost an hour and he has been "making bubbles" for the last ten minutes. He just sits there with a happy smirk because he knows that I'm not letting him out until he does.. I keep thinking I hear him whisper "stay together cheeks, just stay together"
I am the proud owner of a water tortoise

Not sure how informative this is, but info on propagating hibiscus

And it's not to be for Lena's Russia who lost on penalties. Now for the semi final predictions... what a dilemma.

Between the 2 matches, I had to fit in Kyle Edmund v Novak Djokovic at Wimbledon. Unfortunately, Kyle lost despite taking the first set. He is young though, only 23, and we should have many more years of cheering him on

Please pick Croatia and France. Husband put money on Belgium as a surprise element, and I wouldn’t mind if England won. [emoji54]
My wi-fi is patchy, roommies, but I’m trying to catch up whenever I get the chance! [emoji173]️

Lovely tree!

It seems that Lyn has the power to change the CDR cover pic as well. Congratulations Lyn on being one of a few who can. [emoji23] [emoji3] View attachment 244286

Did I do that?
I've no idea how
I just copied and pasted a picture!
Apologies if I've changed something I shouldn't have!

 

[Lyn W]

Hi all !
Maybe these lovely camels will be my new pets when Germany stays so dry as it is at present !

Adam will be happy to send you as many as he can!

 

[Lyn W]

I’m sure Adam will be happy to send you some

Snap!
He's pay the transport costs too!

I picked Sweden....why? ‘ Cause it always seems that England gets so far....but with so much national pressure, they end up being overly tense and “choke”... but not today! Congrads!

Maybe because there weren't too many supporters there they didn't feel the pressure as much and relaxed more.
I watched the tennis.
