    Hi Irene
    I agree it was horrible out Thursday morning and that was with no heat from the Sun, I did not go as far as I would have liked, however the cold Diet Soda and then the cup full of ice when that was drunk up which I chewed and crunched up helped as did having the Cold Cup in my hand to go a lot further than I would have otherwise.

    Have a Good Day

    Hi
    I'm back home from walking no cents. The Temperature out the door was 70 degrees,Once again it was Sort of comfortable while walking due to lower humidity and a gentle breeze. The Humidity has dropped from Oppressive to Uncomfortable :(
    We had some intermittent rain yesterday and from the way things looked out the door there was no further rain overnight. There are some showers in the forecast for today.

    Hi Irene
    I gather from the weather forecasts I saw that South Jersey had a lot more rain than we had where I am, I saw reports of over 4 inches in one are down there. So I am not surprised You have a really big storm happening. You got lucky beating the rain back home from the sound of it. Even Good Rain gear does not keep You 100% dry during a heavy rain and as it blocks any breeze it makes things less comfortable too.

    I'm with You inside under the AC since I have no pool.

    BTW I recently learned from observation that Duncan Donuts has a 1/2 decaf button on their registers :smiley:

    Hi Vix
    If I said I am not liking the weather forecast for the upcoming week as the forecasts show Humidity and temperatures going up starting on Labor Day. I hope the overnight temperatures stay OK.
    Tomorrow Morning 7-Eleven for Coffee as they never close.

    Good Luck with the preparations

    Hi Irene
    I'm sorry to hear that the House sale fell through. I suppose there is a slim chance that when the buyer (!) sees the house back on the market they may came back with a lot less conditions, it depends on how interested they were. I wonder if a different realtor would work better ?

    I hope the walk was good.

    Good Luck

    Hi Joanne
    My brother was complaining yesterday that he went to pick tomatoes and found that the majority of the ripe ones were 1/2 eaten with what looked like Squirrel Teeth marks. I did not make him happier when I said that the Sacrificial Tomatoes were likely why I found a bunch of ripe Raspberries :wink:

    Congratulations on the find.

    How Australian "Shrimp on the barbie" (barby ?)

    Enjoy them, As a non seafood eater even I can guess that they will be tasty

    Roger, raspberries are really good for you. Tomatoes are nightshades, so maybe the squirrels were doing you a favor...just kidding. I love tomatoes, just not supposed to eat them. Enjoy your harvest while you can. :)

    Hot and Humid is a bit of a understatement. I am finally cooled of from my walk with the fan blowing over me.

    The Grass is looking like it needs mowing and it is my turn, I plan to try and hold off until the cooler weather later in the week that has been forecast.

    I am off to get my license renewed today. Here in Ma we have to get what is called a Fedral ID license by 2020. I have to bring all kinds of identification with me. I also had to start the application on line first. The good news is that I do not have to sit in the registry office. I can go to an AAA office near me. I am hoping this will be a faster process. I plan on getting there when the doors open at 9am.
    Two more days of work for me and then I am on vacation. I have a few things planned, but most of the weeks is free... a good time to relax. :)
    Roger the weekend here is supposed to be in the 70's and a lot less humid. I am ready for some cooler weather.

    Hello Irene
    Yesterday was tolerable, I did get a cold Diet Pepsi filled with ice and that helped cool me off while walking, I did the same this morning, I even have some of the ice left in the cup that I am letting melt into Ice Water and I also crunch some of the ice cubes.

    The grass here looks like it is ragged and needs mowing. Not until the the heatwave breaks, probably Saturday Morning for me to mow.

    Have a Nice Day

    Hmm... AAA to get a license ? Here You need to visit a MVC, Motor Vehicle Office. At least the local office is not to far and they work quickly too.

    I hope the last days of work are easy for You. Enjoy the Vacation Time.

    Me too, Cooler weather is going to feel good. I am holding of the Mowing until the heat breaks, does that make me smart ?

    Good Luck with beating the heat it was still, Already ?, Hot and humid at 5AM here hence I plan to wait one or two more days before I start to shorten the grass.

    Interesting, I am guessing that the cameras are also used for security at the house ?

    Good Luck Selling

    BTW the Apple Store Robberies, I do not think the Robbers care they can sell them to gullible buyers as having "fallen off the truck" or they may be more valuable as parts or they might be able to reprogram them to be useful.

    good morning, Well I only mowed the front yard it got so hot I figured I can mow the back maybe Monday the back is actually fine . Well I won't have to go to the home inspection the realtors prefer if we aren't there which is fine with me. Now our home inspection is set up for the following Monday you should see the list that they will be looking at lets hope we pass. take care everyone, oh I did walk this morning and it was still warm 72 at 3am
