    Hi Vix
    I think we are in for that weather next, It was not that bad this morning. OTOH I did get out the door at 5:11AM and back before the Sun did any real heating of the air. I will be glad when we head into cooler weather and I can sleep later :)

    Cheers

    Good morning.
    Roger, yep, I think it's supposed to be hot and dry all week. I'm still here in my pjs, drinking coffee. Need to get up and get dressed and water the outdoor potted plants! I should probably sweep the floors and do a few other little things around the house.
    Have my yearly female radiology test scheduled for today, but then I get to go for my regular massage afterwards. Massages always seem like a reward. :)
    Enjoy the day, everyone. :)

    Hi Vix
    I watered the potted flowers when I got back home from my morning walk. That way I am doing the exercise in the coolest part of the day :)

    Have a Great Day

    I went to buy the 3m hangers, but read on the back that they don't stick well to vinyl, so I'll have to come up with something else. Oh well. It was 91 when I got home about an hour ago. Love my AC!

    Good morning.
    Well, my porch experiment is off for now...will think of something else. Hard to get anything to stick to vinyl siding...haha, that could be a good thing. :)
    Enjoy your day.

    Hi Vix
    I am guessing You have looked at a premium double sided tape?

    Good Luck

    Hi Roger, I'm sure there's some kind of tape I can use. We're also looking at other options, like putting something there to make a slope, so it's not convenient for them to land. I don't really want to put any holes in the siding or the wooden door frame, so that limits my options somewhat. I'll let it roll around in the back of my mind for a few days....I usually come up with some ideas.

    Good morning.
    We had a little rain yesterday and a tiny bit this morning, but it's overcast, so there may be more coming. I took down the leftovers from my front door experiment.
    Nothing really planned for today. I think the HVAC guy may be coming later to move our humidifier to make room for a wall in the basement. May also be picking out some tile for the bathroom and by the door. Gray day, but I'm glad I don't have to run around today. :)
    Enjoy your day.

    Hi all

    Gee, have I missed coming in that long?? I thought I just missed a couple of days. Sorry. :( Just things are pretty hectic right now. Don't know if I'm coming or going. I've been pretty tired. I feel like JJ looks in my icon.

    It doesn't seem possible that August is halfway over.

    I hope everyone is well.

    Have a good day.

    Hi Vix
    There Must be some Super Tape available. They make some powerful adhesives these days

    Good Luck

    Hi LynMar
    I hope things get better for You soon. August 19 already !

    The Costco Gift Card sale is winding down and I just took an inventory of what I have on hand and I have 3 to 4 months left on hand. I am undecided whether to order more or not. Decisions, decisions :)

    Good Luck

    Good morning.
    What's up Lynmar? Hope you're feeling ok. Sounds like you're really busy.
    Rainy day today here...painting class for me.
    I'm starting to feel almost back to normal. Have been kind of spaced out lately! :wink:
    Enjoy your day. :)

    Hi Vix
    No Rain here in town, nearby towns, pretty close too had major Rain Yesterday up to 4 inches, roads flooded & Closed, Highway Damaged etc.

    You only had rain :) Apparently a pop up Thunderstorm stalled over that area for a few hours, ARK building anyone?

    Cheers

    Just a little bit of rain here, but very gray all day. I'm having fun with color on my painting. :)

    Hi all

    Thank you Roger and E. Guess you have to have the rainy (bad) days to appreciate the sunny ones.

    I'm trying to get things back to "normal" after all the down time with my knees and foot without pushing into a relapse. I had a maid come in Tue and now I can't find anything. At least most of the house is clean now.

    Have a good day.

    Lynmar, glad you're recovering well....good idea to get cleaning help. I've got to do some light cleaning today. It's good to feel like you're getting back to normal. :)
    Looks like it's going to be a nice day outside.
    Happy Friday, everyone. :)

    Hi All
    Rain overnight where I slept through all of it, best way to get rain. Now the rain is done until maybe showers on Sunday and no watering needed either.

    Hi Lynmar, hope you're getting a little more energy. :)
    Roger, it's great when we don't have to water. The grass got a little color back. :)
    Kel, hope you're doing ok and not working too hard. :)
    Looks like another beautiful day here.
    Happy Saturday, everyone. :)

    Hi Lynmar
    I did something similar today. I wrote a message replying to three posts, shut down the computer to ge have breakfast. I did everything but post the message :)

    The Weather is good today, I can hear my Brother mowing the lawn too. It is his turn, that makes the day even better :)

    Hi all

    Roger, I had a message that said "firefox has stopped" or something like that. It wasn't my fault. :(

    E, I'm glad you can walk again. I'll be glad when I can. I really want to start walking with the dogs! Just can't do it when the heat index is still in the 90's at bedtime. The heat makes me sick.

    We haven't had rain lately but are supposed to get a lot the end of next week.

    Have a good day.

    Good morning!
    Another beautiful day here. The mornings have been nice, in the high 60s.
    Lynmar, I don't envy the heat! I would probably stay inside all the time. I do that here when it gets too hot and humid. Actually, my ankle still swells up a little, and the infusions for RA apparently take a few months to take effect, but I'm on my way, and luckily have a pretty good tolerance. I'm not good at sitting around. It'll be nice not to be so achy. :)
    Happy Sunday, everyone. :)

    Hi Lynmar
    In my case it was something I did :)
    Have You looked to see if disabling Extensions or Plugins helps? That is one cause, another is Malware. And if is not happening except once in a Blue Moon don't worry or bother. Believe it or not there really is a Blu Moon.
    A blue moon is an additional full moon that appears in a subdivision of a year: either the third of four full moons in a season, or a second full moon in a month of the common calendar.

    The phrase has nothing to do with the actual color of the moon, although a literal "blue moon" (the moon appearing with a tinge of blue) may occur in certain atmospheric conditions: e.g., when there are volcanic eruptions or when exceptionally large fires leave particles in the atmosphere.

    Cheers

    Hi Vix
    My Brother is like that, sometimes he gets up and paces in the evening when he sits too long.

    Last to mornings in the 60s here too.

    Good Luck with the Ankle and Infusion in the near future

    Hi all

    Roger I had known but forgotten about the blue moon. Nice to remember it again. :)
    Firefox only happened that one time. Just frustrating when it did.

    E, I'm glad you have a good tolerance. I know you'll be so glad when you feel better.

    Unfortunately I *have* to sit around a lot with my health problems. I used to be an Alpha personality but had to learn after so many relapses. E can understand with her fibromyalgia.

    I'm thinking maybe next year I'll get a big enough pool to swim in so I can exercise in the summer.

    Take care and have a good day

    Blue Moon.....do you remember this:

    Makes me smile.
    I'm going to start back with my PT exercises today, maybe back to the gym next week.
    Enjoy the beautiful weather...Lynmar, hope you get a break from the heat!

    Hi LynMar
    I feel for You, I know my Brother would go stir Crazy if we were snowed in for a couple of days, In Fact one day and he is unhappy.

    I suppose You looked at the small pools where You swim into a jet of water for exercise? I have seen them in TV shows FWIW, I never used one.

    Good Luck with getting the Big Pool

    Hi all

    E, enjoyed the clip! Thank you.
    We'll get a break from the heat in another couple of months. :(
    Remember my friend that broke her ankle? She's still in rehab. Hoping to soon be able to use a walker to get around other than in her room.

    Roger, I swim best on my back. Was looking at a pool that's 17x25. Only worry would be if a hurricane comes my way. I would hate to spend that much money and have it wrecked.

    Rain east of here and storms west of here. Not a drop here.

    Have a good day.
