End of Summer 2011 - Torpor in Chairs.





After years of receiving a Word of the Day from Merriam Webster there's finally one that fits the day perfectly!
Aug. 27, 2011's word is  "Torpor".    "a state of mental and motor inactivity with partial or total insensibility"
In other words it means sitting around doing nothing.

Hey Ree!
Your show was great this morning!
Let's try using it in a sentence, Sideline;  
Due to a busy week and late summer lethargy we are enjoying a torpor day of watching Pioneer Woman on the Food Network, Little League and Tiger baseball, and Lions football.







Gettin' educational around here isn't it? 
Sideline Grandma's just putting Merriam Webster to use.
And it's about time.
Torpor example.


Torpor away!! away.. away.. away.. yeah....

Ahhhh...~~~~~

Rarely do we have flooding around here.
The neighbor's Adirondack chairs are safe, regardless.

So thankful to God for the blessings of
summer '11.
It's been one of the
BEST.




Sideline Grandma will be in a state of torpor.. all day.

  1. I forgot about PW's show! I must try to catch it. Waiting here for Irene, a block from the Bay. Hope she gets tired on her way to visit!
    Stay safe and thanks for visiting!
    PS. I have 4 grands, but their games are over an hour away, so we don't get to see them play. You are blessed!
