ran out and picked up sushi for supper last night…

usually we go to our favourite place or order from different places as they don’t deliver…

it was delicious and still hot… happy we went and picked it up…

we also did a great job of ordering as there were just two little rolls left over… often we over-order and have too many leftovers…

and really, sushi is not as good the second day😋…

a lovely treat…

got up early and went outside for a look at the lovely sky and my flowers…

the previous evening I’d noticed that one of the buds on a morning glory plant was getting ready to open…

I’ve been waiting for these ones as they are quite stunning but seem to take an extra long time to open…

sure enough it had opened to a beautiful flower… happily I took a few photos before going back inside and back to bed…

when I next got up it had just stopped raining so I went out to check on the bloom…

of course it was a little worse for wear after the rainfall…

so happy I went out early 😊…

it was a beautiful day, so I decided to do my exercises beside the pond…

when I rolled out the mat, the top end went into the water, so I had to wait for the mat to dry, lol…

what a treat to listen to the water falling and watch the sky and trees overhead while I went through the steps…

my housemate took a video, after I was done, of a few of each of the exercises…

I am so excited…

today I received a 2027 Chihuly calendar…

I have loved his work for many years and during a good portion of that time would have his calendar on my wall…

for the last few years I haven’t had one and have had a variety of bird ones…

I know I will enjoy this one when 2027 begins;-)…

had a dentist appointment the other day, and it included what I call everything…

that means x-rays, scaling, polishing, and an exam by my dentist…

my hygienist is amazing and does a great job of making the x-ray process as quick as possible because I am a gagger, sigh…

once we got through everything the dentist discussed putting a crown on one of my front teeth… it has been filled a few times, but the fillings never stay…

happily, she agreed to do nothing right now, but likely in October we will need to move forward with this…

hopefully, some portion of it will be covered by the new dental plan…

🤞…

one of my favourite trees in the Mediterranean Biome is the magnolia…

it blooms fairly regularly and can have only one flower blooming at a time or as many as six, which I spotted earlier this summer…

today, it had one glorious bloom above a spent flower…

magnolias smell delicious, although our tree is too high up to be able to catch the scent…

I’m so happy with how the plants are growing on the new arch…

the scarlet runner beans have been flowering for a while, but the actual beans have only just begun to appear…

the morning glories have now met up with the scarlet runners at the top of the arch…

it looks so nice from everywhere in the garden 😊…

I am in the process of using a Libra 3 for the next few weeks…

the purpose is to see how the food I eat over that time affects my blood sugar…

it is kind of fun😊…

I’ve been taking photos of everything that has been going into my mouth and noting it down in the app…

still figuring out about how long it takes to go into my body and then cause a reaction…

over the two weeks, it is anticipated that I will have eaten the majority of my basic food intake…

last night there was a partial lunar eclipse and, since it was lovely out, I sat on the deck with my camera and tripod and got a few pictures…

had some fun with different settings on the camera…

I spent about an hour and a half enjoying the show and only went in once it had reached the peak and my camera battery died, lol…
