Oh my goodness, are we lucky or what? Greg and I are enjoying a historic time here in Oregon. The hottest temperatures on record. But we are having a wonderful time sweating together. My Mom and Dad live in a house that was built in 1890 and of course has been built onto and remodeled over the years, but they don't have AC. So there is a constant hum of fans throughout the house. Yesterday it was 104. Today is supposed to be even warmer. Yipee. It reminds them of Africa.
I have been feeling great this week!!! Mom's cooking sure helps! Last night my brother, Robert, and his kids had dinner with us. They are growing up. Crazy. I really enjoyed seeing them.
I went with Mom to her mammogram appointment yesterday. It was so great to sit in a waiting room and be waiting for someone else. So many people have done that for me. Then we went out to a nummy Chinese lunch. Following that, we went to my favorite place, Costco! You guys must think I'm a little looney because I always talk about the highlight of my day being a trip to Costco. But it's true. But yesterday it was extra-special because I was at my favorite place with Mom!
This afternoon Greg and I plan to go to Dallas to visit his Mom and his brother. It will be good to see them. His Mom lives in a sort of foster home for older people. His brother, Randy, had cancer last year and is doing very well. We have a lot to talk about!
Jake is driving across the country from Nashville to CDA this week. He left yesterday. Would you pray for his safety? Thank you.
I have the feeling people are praying for me this week. God has given me so much strength and I've been able to do so much more than sit on a couch and watch the food channel. Thank you so much for thinking about us this week. I love you and I'm thankful for you. Love, Julie

yeah!! I am so glad that your time is going well despite the heat. It seems weird that it is so hot there when it is cooler right now in MT. It feels like Fall. :) Love you guys and yes, we are always praying. :-)
Have a great time in the valley with your folks! It always feels hotter down there, because nobody has AC! We were always desperate to find someplace to swim (remember the Compton's pool?), but usually had to settle for the sprinkler. I'll be praying for your continued good feeling, and Jake's safety on his trip. Say hi to Ron & Gloria for me--
Love, Cindy
We have AC,hehe, nope, no such thing as global warming. I was just wondering Julie if the people in COSTCO were safe?
It's Gram Nagaki's 84 birthday today! We are making Italian food, (She keeps her house on "real cool.") We got her one of those robot vacuums. We are already giggling about how she will follow it around the house, making sure it is cleaning alright.
Love,
Jerry
Yeah!! We are coming today! We are excited to see you again! :-)
