Another Beautiful Day

Today was a beautiful weather day! It was nice to finally see the sun shining again. I visited Mom and did her grocery shopping for the week. We left there at about 6:30pm and since I took the back way home to avoid traffic, I got home at 8:00pm. Coco met me at the door like she usually does. I have to be so careful that she doesn't get out. Sandy was sitting in his usual spot on the wing chair with his chin on the arm of the chair. He was just waiting to be petted. I opened both doors to get a breeze in here. We had a neighborhood cat stop by and Sandy howled until it went away. What a sound he makes! It scared me. I thought that I may have put the recliner back too far and accidently hit him, but that was not the case. It was the interloper on the patio that got him all excited. Things have returned to a peaceful state. Both cats are napping and I'm listening to light classical music. I can hear conversation outside. It's coming from someone's balcony across the lawn. That's one of the sounds of summer when you live in a development like mine. Hearing the AC for the neighbor upstairs is another sound of summer when the back door is opened. The conversation doesn't bother me, but since the AC is right outside the door, it's too loud and disturbs the silence of the evening. When the hot, humid weather arrives I'll have my AC on and the doors will be closed. Hearing the AC won't be a problem. I do love to smell the fresh spring air and hear the sounds of spring and summer outside. I can now hear thunder in the distance. I hope that the storm passes us by.
