    Howdy all y'all. It's fabulous Friday!

    We have 14 (Celsius) clear degrees with an expected mostly sunny high of 27 and 3% chance of precipitation.

    There is still laundry to fold, but it's not the same laundry. Dinah and I folded that laundry yesterday and I ran another load that is now in the dryer waiting to be folded and put away.

    good morning
    Jo, you are so good doing that yardwork.
    Ed, it's funny how you leave folding the laundry. We all do things our own way. I enjoy folding it when it's warm.
    Hi Irene.
    It's currently 46F, 7.7C. It was pouring rain all night. Cloudy with periods of rain forecast for today. High 49F, 9.4C. Winds light and variable. I'm trying to get used to the Celsius temperature readings!
    I need to do some cleaning today, and it's my last full day of penicillin. Yay! Still have a little tickle in my throat, but so much better. :smile:
    Wishing all an easy Friday, and a wonderful weekend.

    Oh, it's warm when I fold it. I always give it a refreshing drying cycle before folding, to limit wrinkles, and so that Dinah will find the process more fun. If I have items like collared shirts, or slacks that need to be hung, I will usually get those taken care of after the first run but may leave other things until later. I find it uncomfortable to stand in one place for very long.

    Haha, yep. I think I would forget about it if I left it for later. Just me. 😂

    good morning
    Irene, it's so nice to get out with friends! Lots of rain here too.
    Didn't get to the cleaning yesterday, so I need to get that done today. Good day to putter around the house.
    It's currently 42F. 5.5C. Rain showers this morning with isolated thunderstorms developing during the afternoon hours. Gusty winds and small hail are possible. High 63F, 17.2C. Winds SSE at 10 to 15 mph.

    Howdy all y'all. It's satisfying Saturday!

    We have 14 (Celsius) cloudy degrees with an expected mostly sunny high of 27 and 24% chance of precipitation. I know I heard a thunderstorm come through during the night, and some rain.

    I will try to get out to Kroger later for a few things. And Dinah and I might get that laundry folded!

    Good morning;
    The sun is shining and we will get up into the upper 50's today.
    My daughter and I are going to Muise Paint Bar this afternoon to try our hand a painting a picture. I will post a pic when done.
    I have never painted a picture before, so this should be interesting. Hubby is working on his MG, getting it ready for the summer.
    It doesn't have heat, so he does not drive it in cold weather.
    As for folding laundry, I try to do it as soon as the dryer stops. If I don't it could sit there for days.
    Have a relaxing Sunday. :)

    Howdy all y'all. It's sumptuous soggy Sunday!

    We have 14 (Celsius) cloudy degrees with showers off and on. The expected overcast high is 20 with 86% chance of rain. There was some thunder while I was preparing and eating my breakfast.

    I got out to Kroger yesterday and pretty much got everything I needed from the list. Dinah and I did get that laundry freshened, folded, and put away.

    Everything is ready for the next load that will likely be sometime this week.

    The cats were kind enough to let me sleep until almost 8:00 before Dinah insisted it was time for me to rise and shine.

    Nothing critical on the agenda for today.

    hello
    Finally a sunny day! Yay!
    Jo, I think you'll enjoy painting. I went to a couple of sip and paints, one with my daughter and one with friends. They pretty much walk you through it, and it's fun.
    Ed, good that you got your shopping and folding done,
    We went out to TJMaxx this morning. Got a few things.
    It's currently 53F, 11.6C. Sunny. High 63F, 17.2C. Winds WNW at 10 to 20 mph.
    Wishing all a relaxing Sunday.

    Howdy all y'all. It's marvelous Monday!

    We have 17 (Celsius) rainy, thundery degrees with an expected partly sunny high of 25 and 100% chance of precipitation.

    Should be a good day at work.

    good morning
    Ed, stay safe from the storms.
    It's nice and sunny here today. I got to sit outside and read for a while yesterday. Also had a visit from the GCs. Always fun to hang out with the little ones.
    It's currently 47F, 8C. Partly cloudy this morning. Increasing clouds with periods of showers this afternoon. High 62F,17C. Winds SSE at 10 to 15 mph.
    I'm kind of liking the temperature in Celsius. I'm looking at it as how far it is from freezing (which is what it is!) 😂
    Wishing all a fine new week.

    SCAM OF THE WEEK:

    New Alert! Cybercriminal at Your Door

    Ring is a popular brand of security cameras designed for home safety. Unfortunately, Ring customers were the latest victims of a phishing attack. Cybercriminals sent phishing emails spoofed as Ring to try and steal customers’ sensitive information.

    Cybercriminals start this attack by sending you a phishing email with an HTML file attached. The email looks like it’s from Ring, and it instructs you to open the file to update your Ring membership. If you click this file, you’ll be redirected to a malicious website that spoofs Ring’s login page. This website prompts you to enter sensitive information, such as your credit card number and social security number. If you enter your information, you’ll be redirected to Ring’s legitimate website, making the email look more real.

    Follow the tips below to stay safe from similar scams:
    • Never click a link or download an attachment in an email that you aren’t expecting.
    • If you receive an email claiming that you need to make changes in your account, always log in to the organization’s website directly.
    • Remember that this type of attack isn’t exclusive to Ring. Cybercriminals could use this technique to impersonate any type of service.

    Howdy all y'all. It's terrific Tuesday!

    We have 10 (Celsius) clear degrees with an expected cloudy high of 22 and 2% chance of precipitation.

    I have a tricky problem with a program at work. We were unable to isolate the issue yesterday and will be continuing to work on that today.

    good morning
    Good luck with the tricky problem, Ed. I had one in Cobol, long ago where it was simply a misplaced ".", but it was so hard to find! Sometimes the devil is in the details.
    It's currently 42F, 6C. Partly to mostly cloudy. High around 55F, 13C. Winds NNW at 5 to 10 mph.
    I will be going to clay crafters this afternoon.
    Wishing all a fine Tuesday.

    LOL. This brings to mind many a long night, looking for exactly that, in the computer lab at the university, at 3:00 in the morning.

    With the programmer and I BOTH looking at this SQL, I'm sure we'll figure it out.

    Good afternoon;
    Vix-The painting class was fun.
    Ed-I hope you get your problem solved soon.
    I put in my last day at work yesterday. I had to go in one more day for insurance purposes. We are now covered under hubby's work insurance. So I am now officially retired.
    We had rain off and on most of the day. The sun is now shining at 4pm.

    Howdy all y'all. It's wonderful Wednesday!

    We have 6 (Celsius) clear degrees (feels like 4) with an expected high of 19 under mostly sunny skies and 1% chance of precipitation.

    The programmer did figure out the problem with the SQL code yesterday, and I was able to finalize testing. They'll probably be installing the application for the client today.

    Still plenty of other things to test though!

    Ed, glad y'all found the bug and were able to get it tested. Nice!
    Jo, are you planning anything else for your retirement celebration? Enjoy!
    It's currently 38F, 3C. Sunshine to start, then a few afternoon clouds. High 58F, 14C. Winds W at 5 to 10 mph.
    Going for a follow up with my pain Dr. later this morning. Then free for the rest of the day. It's also my son's birthday. I think we're planning to get together the weekend following this one.
    Wishing all a happy 🐫 day.

    Good morning;
    It cold this morning, 29F. Yesterday was warm and I worked in the yard for a bit. Today I am going out with my daughter.
    Vix-Happy birthday to your son. I have no special plans for retirement, hubby is still working. Just taking it one day at a time.
    Ed-I am glad you got your computer problem solved.
    Hi Irene.
    Have a great day! :)

    good morning
    Ed, that is so funny! Do you have any laundry to fold? 😂 I did mine yesterday.
    Jo, kind of chilly this morning here today too. I noticed later in the week, several days in the 70s. Have fun out with your daughter. My husband worked 5 months after I retired. It's kind of nice being able to do whatever you want whenever you want, day by day. Thanks for the birthday wishes for my son. So great to be able to see them as wonderful adults.
    I was supposed to have a massage today, but my therapist had an emergency so I've got a free day. My pain Dr. gave me some injections yesterday for my headaches so that was interesting, and I do feel a bit better.
    It's currently 32F, 0C. Abundant sunshine. High 52F, 11C. Winds WNW at 5 to 10 mph.
    Wishing all a pleasant sunny day.

    Oddly, the one day I would feel I HAVE to fold laundry, I have none to fold. Which makes it all the funnier.

    Howdy all y'all. It's fabulous Friday!

    We have 11 (Celsius) clear degrees with an expected cloudy high of 25 and 5% chance of precipitation.

    Things are moving well with our latest project, and we haven't been pulled away too much by client issues. We hope to demo the current state of the project to the big boss (company owner) on Tuesday. At the end of the day yesterday, the programmers had accidentally broken something in the login process but I think it will be fixed early this morning. We were all tired and ready to let it ferment overnight.
