Such a cute picture dear Lynn. Prayers Summer follows through!

Lynn Hope Summer continues to honor her commitments to you. You have been so kind.

Good morning. It is 53 now with temps heading to 80. I have enjoyed the cooler weather over the past few days. I am taking Kenny's kids out to lunch today. It is ice cream for lunch day. I do it once a year and asked Kenny if the kids want to join me as he has them for 5 days now that it is 50 50 custody. Next Friday I will have them for a sleepover. They have been asking for a while.

Off to work. I am taking a couple of hours off today. Have a good day.

Big hug dear Snowysmom. You are such a wonderful grandma. My grandma from Heaven is smiling down on you. She sure loved ice cream and would have helped you out today. Such a fun experience for all of you that the kiddos will always remember.

Dad and I have a neighbor who is now a grandma. I texted with her yesterday

I believe today is going to be very special. I did text a new supporter and friend who is going directly to bat for me to get needed care that will be incredible. God willing I get a yes later today or certainly by Monday.

I watched a movie yesterday that made me smile to think of you, my Quacker family. Faith of Angels is the true story of how God gathers together a community to save a boy trapped in a mine. Faith and genuine support and prayer, care, makes all the difference. God has indelibly graced my life with a support team here of so many kind people who hav stood by me and helped get me to today, make God's plan for me my reality. And 5 years ago, God gifted me, my Quacker family, all of you. I thank Him always for keeping us together. Thank each of you for you. Happy Friday to all. You make a loving difference!

Good morning. Temps will be low 80's today. Rain tomorrow and Sunday, then temps dropping into the 70's next week. I'll be glad when it's cool enough to turn the AC off and open the windows, and so will the cats. They sit on the sills or their window seats looking out, but they can't hear the birds and don't get the fresh air. Miss Tiger is bad again, didn't show up at all yesterday or this morning.

Summer was supposed to let me know if she went to the hospital yesterday. She has a bad rash under her stomach which she thought was infected. I tried texting and calling several times, before she finally answered me after dinner. She had been out all day doing Walmart deliveries. Said her stomach looked better so she didn't go. She didn't think she was going to make it here to pay me back until this morning, which I said was fine. I'm not letting her out of it.

Off to do some light cleaning and get that over with. Have a good day everyone

If she is overweight (which I believe you may have said before that she was), that can be a yeast or fungal rash which happens in hot weather when moisture gets trapped in skin folds like under a bigger belly, or under breasts, groins, etc. Key is it has to be kept clean, so showering or bathing it daily is a must, and clean with a mild soap and her hand, not a facecloth (which can rip the skin and spread germs elsewhere). Blot dry. When dry she can try an OTC steroid cream like hydrocortisone and later same day some OTC miconazole cream twice a day for a couple of days. Once it gets less angry she can stop the creams and then try some medicated powder (like Gold Bond or miconazole, not dollar store brand) to keep it dry. Sometimes if blood sugars run high, it can feed the yeast or fungus and make it worse, so trying to avoid things like concentrated sweets could help, also. HTH Summer. This is generally treatable at home.
