Good morning.
Mostly sunny with a high of 84 today...nice summer day. We had some storms yesterday too, didn't realize subways were flooding...that's pretty severe. At least it's cooled down today.
Roger, I think they don't make towels the way they used to...they are only a few years old and fraying. Maybe the washing machines are rougher? Anyway, it's nice to have new ones.
Irene, sounds like you're getting plenty of exercise.
Hi Jo.
I made an appt for a spine injection for Thursday, but have to change it, didn't realize hubby is doing surgery prep that day, and I'll need a ride. Next week will be good for me. The pain doc was really nice. I hope this works.
I have my regular dental cleaning today and a visit with the functional doc. Getting tired of all these appts! But at least my teeth will be all clean and shiny.
Happy Wednesday, everyone.0 -

Hi
I'm back from walking with one beat up penny. The Temperature out the door was 70 degrees and It was comfortable and even better when the breeze blew. The rain and thunderstorms in the forecast for Tuesday rumbled through the area on schedule.
Before I forget I did see Four Deer crossing the street ahead of me as I was walking.

I did come home and did 45 minute dvd the one we use to get with ns Leslie really wore me out. What's nice about this dvd it also did floor exercises . Well my plans is to clean more closets or maybe start on the basement vets pick up next Monday so the more I can get rid of the better . take care everyone Vix good luck at the spine and pain dr
I would be happy if I slept in until 5AM once in a while, I seem to be getting up earlier and earlier as time goes by.
Yesterday, Tuesday, Was not nice while walking. I did go to the post office as I had 6 items to mail. One was a return mailer from HP to return the empty ink cartridge as well as three payments by my brother and two by me.
Floor exercises would be tough for me as I do not spring to my feet like I did in the past, Now I need something to help pull myself up, oh well it is better than no being.
Have a Nice Day

At least there was no storm damage around here. Lots of road flooding in some areas.
The old washer used to rotate and the new one the agitator goes up and down, Top loaders FWIW and a front loader dryer. Neither my Brother or I are all the enthused with front loading Washers.
I have no doubt that price has risen and quality, quantity or size has dropped on many items.
I hope that pain Doc is able to remove the pain for You, Too many Appointments IMO.
I hope that Your Hubbies Prep and surgery goes well and speedily.
Have a Good Day

Hi.
Roger, interesting stories about the diamonds and the tumor cell magnet. Pretty scary about the voting machines. There should be specific regulations on voting machine software/hardware, something that would be enforced. I hope they can clean up before the next election. Too many idiots running things.
Irene, hope your weather is as nice as ours today. Good day to be outside.
Hi Jo....how's Sophie doing? Hope you're not working too hard.

Hi Vix
I liked the Tumor Cell Magnet, anything that can improve survival rates.
Who in their right mind would think that remote access software in those machines was a good idea ?
I keep meaning to get out and wander through the Goodwill Thrift stores in this area. I have seen two of them scattered around.
Congratulations on the finds

Good morning, We had a nice walk this morning weather was great for walking.

Hi all.
Pete had his procedure today. Glad that is done. There was a minor complication, but he should be better in 3or 4 days. I put my epidural off til Thursday.

NJ considers taxing tap water
NEW JERSEY (FOX5NY) - Never short on ideas for things to tax, lawmakers in New Jersey are considering a tax on tap water.
The proposal is being floated by State Sen. Bob Smith D-Middlesex, who is trying to say it's not actually a tax but a 'user fee'.
"Once again, the most over-taxed people out of all 50 states in this country, are being asked to dig a little deeper after Phil Murphy just raised their taxes by nearly $2 billion."

But these cargo trucks are now nearly as common as passenger buses in Venezuela, where transport union leaders say a fleet that two years ago was estimated at of 280,000 vehicles has been whittled to just 30,000.
Similar stories abound in the country of 30 million people which is reeling from a fifth straight year of economic contraction and annual inflation estimated at some 46,305 percent in June.

So far so good today walking too.
I am not surprised that people do or do not show up for the showing. Some of that I suspect is due to the realtor, Some are better than others
Does Your house have a online walk-through.

Hi Irene
Hi VixHi all.
Pete had his procedure today. Glad that is done. There was a minor complication, but he should be better in 3or 4 days. I put my epidural off til Thursday.
It was a long day, glad to be home.
Happy Friday, everyone.
That is good news, more or less, that it was a minor complication. Sorry to hear about the 3 or 4 days before he is Good to go.
With it being a long day, I can understand You putting off Your procedure.
My brother is so over NJ, He would like to move, to a state that does not tax everything except the air You breathe. IMO The benefits of being between two large metro areas outweigh things so far.
Have a Nice Day

Good morning.
Roger, I liked living in NJ, but I like MD too. It took me a while to get used to it. There are plusses and minuses to living anywhere. Different taxes, but also different services and conveniences.
Have some errands and some grocery shopping to do today.
Happy Saturday, everyone. 0 -
GOOD MORNING, Roger there is pictures on the web I guess you can say it is a walk threw. We were suppose to have another showing last night but I don't think they showed up nothing showed on our cameras. Speaking of cameras we have new cameras in our yard one in the front and another in the back yard well we are getting visitors of the 4 paws kind so far we have seen a cat (a couple of times) well about 3:30 am we had a new company it was a deer and he eat all of my hosta George thought it was funny here is this very close up of this deer just munching on my plant maybe I should put out carrots or something now we have very tall fencing around the whole yard. Vix hope Pete is feeling better. Hey JO Yes Roger totally amazing how they are taxing everything . San Francisco use to be so nice not any more well take care everyone0

Good evening;
I just finished catching up with the posts.
Vix-I hope Pete is up and about soon. Are you getting a Cortisone injection in your spine?
I hope it gives you relief. Thanks for asking after Sophie. She seems to be doing better. Her tail is still lumpy. The Vet said it could take a month to see some results.
Irene-Did you have an open house or do they just show the house by appt.?
They do have cones for cats, but I think Sophie would be miserable if she had to wear one.
Hi Roger.
Nothing new here, just enjoying this cooler weather.
I found 2 cents this week.
We put up a humming bird feeder and have had one coming every afternoon. Hubby has taken pictures and a video with his camera.
Have a great evening.

Hi
I'm back from walking and no cents. The Temperature out the door was 72 degrees and It was semi comfortable walking due to a off and on breeze. The Rain forecast for overnight happened and there was a bit of a drizzle on the outbound and after a period of no moisture the drizzle started again around 3 blocks from the house.
The outdoors temperature went up overnight, At bedtime it was 68 degrees on the porch, this morning it was 72 degrees and it also felt more humid, Yuck
