Howdy all y'all. It's sumptuous Sunday! Happy Mothers Day!
We currently have 13 (Celsius) cloudy degrees with a partly cloudy high of 21 expected and 2% chance of rain.
My PC is currently updating so I am working on my pad instead. It's a much smaller screen but fortunately I have programmed my full size keyboard and my wireless mouse to work with it, as well as with my main computer, or even with my phone.
Nothing critical on the home front today, though I may get a small load of laundry started.

Good morning;
Happy Mother's day.
My daughter came over with brunch, spinach quiche and caramelized onion biscuits. She also bought me a fancy electric tea kettle. It has different temperature settings for different kinds of tea and a warmer feature that keeps the water hot for 30 minutes.
It was very windy here the last couple of days. By the end of the week we are supposed to get up into the high 70's.
Have a great start to your week!

Howdy all y'all. It's marvelous Monday! Sounds like you had a great Mother's Day Joanne.
We have 12 (Celsius) fair degrees now, with an expected high of 24 under sunny skies and 2% chance of rain.
I could still stand to get some laundry done. The weekend was OK but didn't get much of anything done. Back to work in a little bit!

good morning
Sounds like a lovely Mother's Day, Jo, and a delicious brunch. (My daughter made a frittata, and some sides, it was lovely too.
)
Ed, I did laundry yesterday, but will probably do some today too, so I don't leave it for a week.
Irene, enjoy your weekend away! Congrats to your niece! Have a wonderful time.
It's sunny! Yay! It's currently 51F, abundant sunshine, so nice after all the gray weather! High 68F. Winds NE at 5 to 10 mph.
Wishing everyone a nice shiny new week. 🌞

Howdy all y'all. It's terrific Tuesday! We have 12 (Celsius) sunny degrees with an expected sunny high of 27 and 2% chance of rain.
I got a lot of testing done yesterday, and wrote up several bug tickets. I have my work cut out for me this morning.
Still haven't started laundry. Maybe today.

Howdy all y'all. It's wonderful Wednesday!
We have 16 (Celsius) fair degrees now with a sunny high of 28 expected and 1% chance of rain. Once again I had a busy day yesterday, and expect one today as well.
We lost our oldest sugar glider, Clyde. He apparently got himself all tangled up in something and couldn't break free. He was old, and getting cataracts so might not have been able to see what he was doing very well. Now all we have is, again, one lone male. This time it's the semi-wild Mr. Crabbypants...er, I mean Remus, who is left alone. When we first got him, he adopted Clyde as his father.
I am hoping we can find a way to re-home Remus to a better place for him. With our cats, we haven't been able to work with him much to tame him better, though living with Clyde did help. I just hope J, who brought up that idea, can stick to it.
When we first rescued Bonnie and Clyde, we had two fairly sedate cats, and we were able to get the sugar gliders out for short periods and they were very friendly. Now we have younger, more active and curious cats, and it would not be possible to try to tame Remus much at all. If we re-home him, he will be the second pet we have re-homed away from us.
Our first pet was a rabbit we named Rupert. He was never very affectionate, and we couldn't let him have as much room as he really needed. He did like to chase our first cat, when we got her later, but she hated him. We re-homed Rupert to a petting farm to have a better life with more fresh air and sunshine.
And the laundry is still waiting for me to start it. LOL.

Aw, sorry about Clyde, Ed. Good luck rehoming Remus.
Thanks, Jo. Saw some pretty amazing places today. Lots of driving and walking, but so much beauty!
Stay well everyone.🌄🏜️0 -
Howdy all y'all. It's thrilling Thursday!
We have 15 (Celsius) sunny degrees with an expected high of 28 under mostly sunny skies. Wind now is bearing mostly south at 3 kilometers per hour.
J is going to try to see if Remus will accept more human attention to replace the presence of his friend, Clyde. But is also looking into seeing if there is a way to re-home him. I still hope for the re-homing myself. It's been rough, but will get better.
Back to work, plenty to test.

good morning, Ed sorry to hear about Clyde . I have never rehomed an animal I am sure its hard.
On a bright note George and I have survived Sammie's puppy hood today is her 2nd birthday. She really has turned into a great dog.
Looking forward to seeing my sisters this weekend and it will be interesting to see how Sammie handles staying in a hotel wish me luck
take care0 -

Hi all
Busy seeing the sites. Met my sister for lunch today. It was great to see her. Also went to Snow Canyon state Park, very pretty. Temps onto the 90s here today. Hope you're all having a fun weekend.

Howdy all y'all. It's sumptuous Sunday!
We have 19 (Celsius) partly cloudy degrees and the forecast for the day shows a high of 28 under partly cloudy skies with 50% chance of rain, and thunderstorms possible after 1 pm.
Yesterday we went to Buford Dam park and hiked a little, but not too much as neither of us is up to a lot of that. We did find one shady, wooded trail we liked a lot and plan to hike that one again and perhaps go further on it the next time.
Today I need to get to the store for a couple of things, and I need to get the first load of laundry folded and put away, so I can get the second load washed and dried.

Hi all.
North rim of the Grand Canyon today. Magnificent!
Heading back home tomorrow. It will be 100F here. Glad we will be driving with AC!
We were pretty lucky with weather, not too hot and not too cold for our adventures. 😊
Wishing all a good day ☀️0 -

hi everyone,
our weather has been pretty nice. nothing new which is good take care0 -
Hello,
Home again. So nice to sleep in my own bed!
Ed, I'm mostly doing laundry today.
Hi Jo!
Irene, so glad you had a good time. Job market is better now than it's been in decades, so no worries there.
Vacation was wonderful and exhausting.
The scenery was magnificent, driving and hiking was way too much.
We went to Antelope Canyon with a native American guide, it was absolutely stunning, and then a short trip over to Horseshoe Bend.
Bryce Canyon is amazing, should not have done the hike between Sunset and Sunrise point, beautiful, but a bit much, taking about 2 hours with steep trails. (I'm still feeling it).
Took a drive through Johnson Canyon Rd and Best Friends shelter in Kanab, Utah. The animal shelter keeps over 1700 rescues in a very pretty canyon, and has the most beautiful pet cemetery I've ever seen, filled with wind chime trees that make such a soothing background sound.
Visited Snow Canyon in St. George, Utah and also met my sister for lunch. It was great seeing her.
And went to the North Rim of the Grand Canyon. And watched the lunar eclipse.
We got home about 3:30 a.m. this morning after traveling all day yesterday.
It's currently 74F, partly cloudy. High 78F. Winds WNW at 10 to 20 mph.
Wishing everyone a wonderful day. 🌞

good morning.
Sounds like a busy day ahead for you, Ed.
I got my laundry done yesterday, and just put away the things that had to be air dryed.
Our housecleaner is coming today, so need to get rid of any clutter. I'm still exhausted and achy, so I'll take it easy today too.
It's currently 56F, sun and clouds mixed. Slight chance of a rain shower. High 74F. Winds light and variable. Very nice out.
Wishing everyone a pleasant day. 🐫🌞0 -
Howdy all y'all. It's thrilling Thursday!
We have 21 (Celsius) fair degrees with wind north northeast at 5 kph. The expected mostly sunny high is a sizzling 34 (93 Fahrenheit) and we have an air quality warning for the day.
I think it's a good day to stay mostly inside. I finished that big round of testing yesterday, but there is still more stuff to test today. In the process of the big round, I set up logic tables and small programs to semi-automate the process, and shared all that with the programmer working on the fixes, so he can see how I tested it. By the end of that round I had really found my rhythm and had it worked down to a smooth process. Thank goodness I work from home so I could go long stretches without interruption, other than by the cats and maybe J who works down the hall.
It works out well with each of us having separate workspace. We used to have our computers in the same space, but after D moved out, J moved to the room D used to occupy, which was the smallest bedroom, or maybe originally designed as the nursery. So long before I started working for the company too, we were already in separate spaces.
Well, my tea mug needs refilling.

good morning
Ed, my husband and I have our separate spaces too. It's nice having your own little den. Sounds like you got a lot of work done, yay you!
I lazed around yesterday, I was still so exhausted. Fell asleep while reading.
It's currently cloudy and 60F, mostly cloudy skies this morning will become partly cloudy this afternoon. High 82F. Winds W at 10 to 15 mph.
I have an appt with my rheumatologist later this morning. That's about it for today.
Wishing all an easy Thursday. ☁☁🌤0 -

It's totally overcast this a.m. Thunderstorms expected this morning, then mainly cloudy during the afternoon hours. High 88F. Winds S at 10 to 15 mph. No special plans for today.
I'm in the midst of a fibro flare, but may try to do some exercise. Didn't sleep well last night.
Wishing everyone a felicitous Friday. 🌩0 -
Howdy all y'all. It's fantastic Friday! Hope you feel better soon Vix. I'm sure the stormy weather isn't helping.

The weekend is almost here!

good morning
It's a nice, bright, sunshiny day. Currently 67F, (in for a hot one!). Partly cloudy. Near record high temperatures. High 92F. Winds SW at 5 to 10 mph.
I did some exercise yesterday, hoping that getting back into the routine will help. I did sleep a little better.
Pete grilled some salmon for dinner. Simple veggies on the side.
I scheduled a purple heart pick-up for Monday, so I'll go through some things to add to my give away.
Wishing everyone a fun Saturday! 🌞0
