    Good morning
    Hot here too, Ed. The weekend looks good, then in the 90sF, 30sC, all of next week.
    Our housecleaner is coming this morning. I have to wrap up a few gifts, straighten up a bit, and do some laundry. Will is graduating from preschool tomorrow. That will be fun.
    It's currently 74F,23C. Sunny early then increasing clouds with some scattered thunderstorms this afternoon. Potential for severe thunderstorms. High 89F, 32C. Winds W at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 40%. There were some t-storms last night. Good to water the garden. ;)
    Wishing all an easy Friday and a wonderful weekend ahead. 🌞🌦️🌩️🌼🌻🌺🌹🏵️🕊️

    Good morning;
    Currently 80F and sunny with a slight breeze. It is nice sitting out on the deck under the awning.
    Vix-Is Will going to kindergarten in the fall?
    Hi Ed and Irene.
    I have gone grocery shopping, cleaned the bird bath, cleaned the bathrooms and pruned some
    plants. The rest of the day I will relax.
    Have a great day! :)

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

    We have 29 (C) sunny degrees with an expected partly cloudy high of 33 and 77% chance of precipitation that could include thundershowers.

    Still need to get that laundry folded, as Jason is supposedly heading to Kentucky this afternoon after the pool party that I am not going to attend. Too hot and too much chance of thunderstorms, and I don't like driving in the rain if I can help it.

    Grocery shopping may wait until tomorrow too.

    Hi all.
    Jo, I'm glad you are relaxing and enjoying some time outdoors. Yes, Will is going to kindergarten in the Fall. 😊
    Ed, hope you have a relaxing day too.
    Hi Irene.
    It was a beautiful sunny day here, high around 80F, 27C.
    Will's graduation was so cute. It was set up in a tent outside. They had a short speech by the admin. The children filed in, they had little caps, sang a few songs, and walked up to get their diplomas! The teachers said something nice about each of them as they were announced, so sweet! We went out for brunch after, and our son-in-laws parents met us there. We haven't seen them in a while, so that was good too.
    Later in the afternoon, our son and family and daughter and family, all came over to celebrate Father's Day. It was a super fun day.
    Wishing all a happy weekend! 🎓🌞🏵️🌹🌺🌻🌼🕊️

    Howdy all y'all. It's sumptuous, scorching, sunny Sunday!

    We have 29 (C) sunny degrees with an expected mostly sunny high of 35 and 14% chance of precipitation.

    We never did get any rain yesterday, but that's fine. I had a pretty relaxing day and got my hair and beard cut down to a very short length. For hair, the number 3 comb guide and number 2 for the beard. I like to keep them both very short for the summer and I had been getting uncomfortably shaggy.

    Grocery shopping today, I think.

    SCAM OF THE WEEK:
    Be on Patrol for These Fake Calls

    In this week’s scam, cybercriminals are impersonating U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents. The scammers call you and claim that CBP has intercepted drugs or money shipments that are addressed to you. They insist that you must confirm personal details to help them resolve the case. If you refuse to cooperate, the scammers threaten to send police to arrest you. 

    To seem more credible, the scammers may provide actual CBP employee names and numbers that they find online, as well as fake case and badge numbers. In some cases, there is a recorded message that says to press a number to speak to a "CBP officer" about an intercepted shipment. The real CBP stresses that these calls are complete scams and that the agency never requests money or personal information like Social Security numbers over the phone. 
     
    Follow these tips to avoid falling victim to a Border Patrol phone scam:

    The CBP will not call you to request money or financial information. If you receive a call asking you to share personal information, it’s best to hang up and contact the government agency directly at a verified number.

    This particular phone scam impersonates the CBP, but remember that scammers could call you and impersonate any government entity.

    Scammers rely on scaring you into making an impulsive decision. If you receive an unexpected phone call urging you to take action, be extra cautious. It could be a scam.

    Stop, Look, and Think. Don't be fooled.

    Good afternoon
    Currently 79F and sunny. We are in for a hot week. I will be turning on the AC before I go to
    work tomorrow.
    We had a nice relaxing weekend. We made portobello mushroom cap pizza on the grill.
    Vix-I hope you took lots of pics at the graduation.
    Irene-You will sure need the pool this week if your weather is going to be anything like ours.
    Ed-Good idea getting a short haircut for the summer, so much cooler.
    Hubby was was working in the yard on Sat. early evening and a raccoon walked right by him and
    went under our deck. We have lattice work around the bottom of the deck and there is one small
    hole and he squeezed his body through it. Hubby has some fox urine spray that he is going to
    spray near the hole and when we are sure the raccoon is no longer under the deck we will put
    some kind of wood around the deck instead of plastic lattice.
    Never a dull moment around here.
    Have a great day! :)

    Good morning
    Jo, I took a few pictures, Pete took some, and Jen and Steve took a lot! We have a copy of a formal picture that the preschool took, so cute! We have steamy weather too for the next 10 days, highs in the high 80s and 90sF, 30sC. Too hot for me! I'll be out in the mornings or evenings when it's cooler.
    Irene, that pool of yours will be really sweet the next few weeks!
    Ed, thanks for the continuing scam alerts! I entered the contest for the HGTV smart home in Atlanta/Marietta Georgia, haha. Waiting for them to tell me I won. 😂
    Yesterday we started looking for a quick vacation spot somewhere for the summer. I wish we had someone to plan vacations for us!
    It's currently 73F, 23C. Sunny to partly cloudy. Near record high temperatures. High 91F,33C. Winds SSE at 5 to 10 mph.
    Stained glass is cancelled this a.m., but we have our clay group in the afternoon. It's good because I can exercise before I go.
    Wishing all a pleasant Tuesday. Be careful in the heat, stay cool! 🌞🌤️🌼🌻🕊️😎

    Good afternoon;
    Currently 93F and sunny, and I am sitting in my nice cool house.
    I gave the next door neighbors a rectangle blow up pool that I bought a few years back and never used.
    The kids were playing in it at 10am. They are age 3 and 1.
    Stay cool!

    Irene, how fun getting your hair and nails done!

    Ed, hope you have an easy day today. Were you off for Juneteenth? I forgot about it. The library was closed so I'll go back today.

    Good afternoon;
    Currently 95F and sunny.
    I am nice and cool in the house.
    I am cleaning and getting ready for my son's visit. They arrive next Wednesday.
    I am slowly befriending the stray cat that I have been feeding. She will now come to me and
    let me pat her and she will meow when I talk to her.
    Enjoy your day and stay cool! :)

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

    We have 20 (C) sunny degrees with an expected sunny high of 33 and 3% chance of precipitation.

    Sounds like a good day to stay inside in the air conditioning.

    Jo, I know you are so excited for your son and family's visit, how wonderful! My mother-in-law did the same with a stray cat. Eventually, it came to stay with her. Good you are staying cool, and the temps are letting up a bit.
    Irene, have a great time at the wedding! I love weddings, so much fun and happiness.💞
    Ed, just a tiny bit warmer here. I'm mostly staying in from the heat. I got out to the library and ran some errands before it got too hot yesterday.
    It's currently 72F, 22C. Sunny. Hot. High 94F, 34C. Winds light and variable.
    We're under a heat watch for the next several days. The forecast is for close to 100F, high 30sC for the weekend. 🥵

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

    We have 30 (C) fair, mostly sunny degrees with an expected scorching, partly cloudy high of 36 and 1% chance of precipitation.

    I did get out to the grocery yesterday, and picked some blueberries off my bushes in the evening. I don't know if I'll make anything out of them or just eat them, maybe with cottage cheese or yogurt.

    I watched an old film noir last night. Experiment in Terror (1962) with Glenn Ford and Lee Remick, on the Tubi app. It was good.

    Nothing critical on the agenda for today.

    Leftover pizza for breakfast, and will have it again for lunch.

    Good afternoon;
    Currently 86F and very humid. I am staying in where it is cool.
    We had rain over night.
    Yesterday we picked raspberries and then went to the farmer's market. We stood in line to get
    empanada's. When it was our turn to order all they had left was chorizo, so we didn't get any.
    They must be very popular because it was only an hour after opening.
    There is always next week.
    Have a good day! :)

    We have 24 (C) partly cloudy degrees with an expected partly cloudy high of 36 and 5% chance of precipitation.

    I left a program running all weekend to test long term memory usage and it's looking OK for the most part. I think we may be ready to let it out to the client.

    I have a few more things to test on that program this morning though, first.
