Thursdays are a bit of a pain.... WAIWO 07-25-13

Not looking forward to going outside although it is lovely and cool and would make working in the garden a JOY instead of mosquito battling!  Why?  Because it is so lovely and cool - I can definitely tell where every joint in my body is!  Oh well - I need the exercise and movement to free up those joints!
