This morning it was not uncomfortable outside, I suspect that the humidity might be low yet and rising throughout the day.
90 minutes of walking is a good walk.
I was glad I got my mowing in done over the weekend where it was reasonably comfortable doing it.
Looking out the window this morning I see that the scourge of the neighborhood lawns is starting to make the yard look unkempt already. The grass is not growing, the Broadleaf weeds that stick up a flower several inches above the grass are already appearing
Good Luck

Another nice day! I have weeded the flower beds, straightened the house, and washed the kitchen and breezeway floor.
I am going to get a pedicure in a little while and after that I have nothing planned.
Irene-congrats on your find. I found a penny the other day.
It is back to work for me tomorrow. I have enjoyed my time off, especially with the cooler weather.
Hi Roger
Hi Vix
Enjoy your day!
Yesterday the yard work was doing more weeding, a little bit at a time and planting a couple of healthy looking plants that we picked up at Lowes along with the Mulch. Three bags of that left, Less than a bag needed to finish
I think my mind works funny, when You said "straightened the house" I had a image pop into my head of a house that was bent
Sorry to hear Your time off is ending.
Congrats on Your Penny, lately I am finding nothing

Good morning.
Forecast up to 87 today, but it's beautiful and sunny out right now. We've been sleeping with the windows open. It's nice that the nights are going down to the 60s. I have acupuncture this afternoon, but am free the rest of the day to catch up with whatever I want to.
Jo, I hope Sophie's ok.
Good for all the walking Roger and Irene. We walked in the park yesterday afternoon, but my leg is not doing so well, so I'll take today off.
Happy Monday, everyone.
The local Cable News Channel was showing 91 Monday when I checked. What I have been doing is pre-cooling the Bedroom and then when I retire for the night I turn it off and turn on a Box Fan to circulate the air. So far that is working.
I have been opening the front door and and window in the back of the house in the morning when I return from walking until the porch starts warming up from the sun.
Hopefully the acupuncture helped. I have some knee pain when I head out the door mornings until I get a Block or two from the house and then it clears up, Endorphins ?Good morning.
Hot one today, up to 91. Definitely summer.
Stained glass and clay today.
Happy Tuesday!
Today is forecast to be HHH, AKA Hot, Hazy and Humid
I forecast that the AC units will be cranking today, Lucky Me I get to pay the next energy bill and I am suspecting it to be a whopper and not the tasty Burger King kind of Whopper.
Enjoy the Classes and Good Luck with Your Leg.
Roger
P.S. I saw Your post here, thanks for the info:

I tend to agree with You I was a entire block from the house outbound when the sweat started
Congratulations on getting both lawns mowed.
Congrats on the walking too. On the good side there is supposed to be cooler weather moving in. Not a lot cooler but I'll take what I can get.
Have a Nice Day

Hi
I'm back from walking and no cents. The Temperature out the door was 72 degrees and I was only semi comfortable.
I went back out yesterday to the DMV AKA MVC to renew my cars registration and Found one cent in their parking lot, I also was lucky enough to get the last spot in the shade and the process was 15 minutes in duration. Then I was able to park in the shade at the ShopRite, That made the car much more comfortable when I came back to it.

I can not argue with You as I also shortened my walk Wednesday, likely due to the temperature and heat.
Enjoy the Day
RogerGood morning.
Looks like a nice sunny summer day.
Cleaning person is coming this a.m. and I have a follow up visit with my perio.
Looks like you are all keeping up with your exercise! Congrats.
Happy Wednesday.
The day looked nice and was OK while I was driving in the car, I drive with the windows open as I like the feel of the breeze.
Hopefully the follow up was good news.
I am still walking this summer despite the less comfortable feel to the air.
Have a Good Day

Good morning. Mostly sunny, expected high of 88. Sat on the patio in the shade yesterday for a little while. There was a breeze and it was pleasant.
Congrats to the Australians! Need to spread that mosquito treatment around the world.
Nothing new at perio. Leaving the implant alone because doesn't want to disturb the one next to it. I survived the antibiotics.

Sunny would be better if we also did not need rain. It was much better in the shade and a breeze helped too.
If I could wave a magic wand and exterminate Mosquitoes and Roaches for example I would.
I am sorry that You need to visit doctors, I have always tried to avoid Doctors and Dentists
That is how one year back in the 80s I ended up in the hospital with Pneumonia from waiting to long to go to the doctors.
I hope the Rheumatologist went well and I am sure You enjoyed the Art Class.

I have been known to make Bacon, Egg and Cheese Sandwiches to eat for lunch. A quick Microwave and Voila a tasty Hot lunch. That would be me being lazy and getting double use out of the pans from cooking breakfast
Walk is one of the words most dogs recognize I'm sure. When You walk Annie does she stay on the grass or paving ?
There was a item on one of the news broadcasts recently saying to be careful when walking a pet to avoid burning their feet on hot paving or sidewalks.
Congratulations on the steps and penny

Good morning.
Right, Roger....I'm tired of going to Drs. Have a referral for pain management, probably a steroid shot to try to help with my uncooperative sciatica/leg issues. Also have to catch up with regular dental cleaning , and yearly exams coming up. Chiropractor this afternoon.
We're going out with the family tonight to celebrate my husband finishing his radiation treatments. He goes back next week to get the seeds implanted. Hopefully this will all quiet down soon.
Partly cloudy with a high of 86 today, not bad.
Happy Friday, everyone.0 -
good morning, Vix So awesome that your husband is done with his radiation how is he feeling? Our weather here is beautiful took Annie out for her 2 nd walk but now I have to go food shopping. Roger we live in the country so it is mostly shady she does walk a lot on the grass we don't even have side walks but thanks for asking.0

Thanks, Irene. He's doing fine. Happy he can stop going in every day.

I do not blame You, I had to get a shot into a joint at the base of my middle finger on year recently as it was very inflamed. The shot worked wonders, OTOH the pain while he gave the shot was
Good Luck with Your Shot. I worked with someone that had Sciatica for years, he was not happy. Oh Darn, You had to mention my long deferred Dental visit that should be scheduled
Good News with Your Husband.
Sometimes a nice quiet period is needed.Thanks, Irene. He's doing fine. Happy he can stop going in every day.
Nice living in the country.
I'll bet he is.Good morning. Another hot one today, expected high of 90 and sunny.
It was nice spending time with family last night.
No special plans for today.

Not a Nice weather forecast for the next few days, Hot & humid, Yuck !
A possibility of Rain for Tuesday, Yesterday we spent time in the garden watering. Early on it was not that hot and then in the afternoon it could have been better.
I'm sure it was nice, I wish I had family close, Our family scattered over the years.
It is what it is...

I hate going food shopping, I seem to buy junk when I do. That explains why I let my brother do most of it.
Our town is a mix of streets with sidewalks and no sidewalks. The only problem with walking on grass is that it can disguise a dip in the ground that might be a trip hazard

I have not been using the computer lately. I have been trying to be more active instead of sitting in front of the computer.
So far there doesn't seem to be any improvement on Sophie's lumps. The vet said it may take up to 3 weeks. He shaved her tail where the lumps are and she has been licking them and they look irritated. Other than that she seems to be doing good.

Even with the headset on and listening to a AudioBook while walking I can hear traffic coming when I do need to walk in the road. The Darn trucks are so noisy as are some of the cars that they drown out the Book. I feel like yelling at the noisy cars "Midacize"

Good morning.
Thanks all.
My children are close...the rest of our family is scattered. But I'm super happy to be near my children.
Irene, congrats for staying on track and all the walking.
Jo, congrats on being more active. I hope Sophie gets better soon.
I've been trying to be more active too, but not doing very well at it. Did manage a walk in the park yesterday. I was really tired and achy after that.
Roger, your cents add up. Forecast here is for high of 89 and possible isolated t-storms. So many of the news sites are asking for permission now to keep info, that I would rather not read what they have to say than to authorize more keeping track of me. Such is the world of technology.

I am starting spring cleaning today. I know it is a little late. It is a gloomy day, so I decided since I have 2 days off from work I would deep clean the house.

Hi Roger and Irene.
Back to cleaning, have a wonderful day.0 -
Good Sunday Morning, Wow Roger and Jo congrats on your find. Jo I was wondering do they put cones on cats so they don't lick there sores?

Good morning.
One more hot one today...up to 93 and mostly sunny. Then t-storms tomorrow and a little cooler.
Good luck with your cleaning, Jo. You are always so industrious!
Irene, Chinese food is delicious, lucky you. Soy sauce is loaded with sodium, and the MSG can mess with you too.
Hi Roger.
It's massage Monday for me. Yay. I have a visit with a Spine and Pain doc tomorrow. Looking for a little magic.
