Howdy all y'all. It's sumptuous Sunday!
We have 27C mostly cloudy degrees with a forecast of cloudy skies early, followed by partial clearing. High 33C. Winds WNW at 15 to 25 km/h. 18% chance of precipitation.
Groceries on the agenda for today. Nothing else critical.
Supper yesterday was at Del Taco. I had a tostada thing, corn tortilla topped by refried beans, salsa, lettuce, tomatoes, and cheese. Fries for my side and a rare treat of a fountain drink.
Breakfast was maple brown sugar oatmeal, bacon, and a few chicken tenders with orange juice to drink.
The cats are waiting for their breakfast. As you can see, Ruby is even at the table!

good morning
Nice cat picture, Ed. Is that Ruby? Hope you had a nice anniversary yesterday. Hi Irene and Jo.
It's 73F, 23C. Partly cloudy. High 86F, 30C. Winds N at 5 to 10 mph. Yesterday, we went to a metaphysical fair at a local brewery we hadn't been to before. The fair was small, had some crystals, witch's bells, jewelry and other fun things for sale, and they had some people doing Reiki or other meditative/relaxation sessions, and some Tarot readers. We had a glass of cider at the brewery, it was good, actually from another local brewery. Then we went for our favorite walk along the Creek in Frederick. I did laundry, caught up with some bills, etc. Kept busy most of the day. Will see what today brings. Wishing all a bright shiny new week. Stay cool. ☁️⛅🌻🌟🤞🏻🕊️😎

Howdy all y'all. It's marvelous Monday!
Yes, that was Ruby laying in my chair at the table, waiting for me to prepare breakfast for the cats.
We have 26C sunny degrees. The forecast calls for mostly sunny early then increasing clouds with some scattered thunderstorms this afternoon. High 33C. Winds WNW at 15 to 25 km/h. Chance of rain 40%.
For supper last night I baked a couple of medium sized potatoes, then added butter, chili beans, and cheese as toppings. They were delicious and very filling.
I dropped my van off first thing this morning for an oil change and brakes. The Uber back home was surprisingly inexpensive at only $11.97. All the same, I gave the driver a $5.00 tip.
Breakfast, after the Uber ride, was some cold cereal and some bacon. Pineapple was the juice of the day.
Might get some laundry started today.
But work has already started!

Good afternoon;
It is currently 78F and sunny with a slight breeze. Ed-Happy Anniversary. Vix-You had a busy weekend. This morning I went to my daughter's house to let the dryer repair man in. After that I went to Ikea and picked up a small desk for the office. I still have to put it together, but that may not be until tomorrow. Have a good afternoon.😀

good morning
Ed, good to get the brakes fixed. I usually wait for my car if it's not going to take too long. Jo, how much fun, setting up a new office. The last time I set up an Ikea desk was with my daughter, fond memories. Hi Irene.
It's 64F, 18C, feels so nice! Lots of sunshine. High around 85F, 30C. Winds light and variable. We went for a walk in the park yesterday. There was a little breeze, but it was still too hot. I have stained glass and clay crafters today, so long, busy day. Wishing all a fine Tuesday, stay cool. 🌞🌻🤞🏻🕊️😎

Howdy all y'all. It's terrific Tuesday!
We have 24C sunny degrees with a forecast calling for sunshine and clouds mixed. A stray shower or thunderstorm is possible. High around 35C. Winds NNW at 10 to 15 km/hr and 20% chance of precipitation.
Supper last night was a big dinner salad. Mine had chopped boiled eggs and diced Spam, along with cheese, gluten free croutons, a small sprinkle of potato sticks, and my home made thousand islands style dressing.
Breakfast this morning was cheesy grits and sausage links.
Work beckons.

good morning
Ed, salads are always so good in the summer! Hi Irene and Jo.
It's 68F, 20C, opened the door next to me to get the morning air. A mix of clouds and sun. High 86F, 30C. Winds SSE at 5 to 10 mph. Yesterday, I cut and ground glass for a couple of suncatchers. I made a small bowl with an uneven top and a small vase with an uneven top on the potters wheel. 😂😂😂 I may be able to straighten them out when they dry a little, as long as they don't dry too much. Then I made a vase in a mold and pinched a small bowl. They forgot to run our kiln again, so hopefully that will be done before next week. We're going out with friends tonight for dinner and a wine tasting. Fun! Wishing all a happy 🐪 day. Stay cool. ⛅🌻🍷🕊️😎

Howdy all y'all. It's wonderful Wednesday!
We have 24C cloudy degrees with a forecast for a few showers early, then clouds lingering for the afternoon. High a little cooler at 31C. Winds E at 10 to 15 km/h. Chance of rain 30%.
I got my van back yesterday, with new brakes. Jason's car is in the shop for the air conditioner now. It's nice to have a small business auto shop so close to home that we can feel good about taking our vehicles to.
Thanks all, for the anniversary wishes. 10 years married, over 31 years together!
For supper last night I made nachos. Breakfast this morning was maple brown sugar oatmeal and some link sausages.
Work is already in progress, so back to it.

Howdy all y'all. It's thrilling Thursday!
We have 23C sunny degrees. The forecast calls for sunshine and clouds mixed. A stray shower or thunderstorm is possible. High 32C. Winds E at 10 to 15 km/h. Chance of precipitation is 15%.
My endocrinologist visit went well, overall. My A1c was a bit higher so we decided it's finally time to move from Januvia tablets to injectable Mounjaro pens. I'll still be taking metformin, at least at first, but the hoped for outcome would be that I can work up to only taking a weekly injection for my diabetes, and no pills. I'd love that! So I hope the Mounjaro works for me and I tolerate it well. We'll be closely monitoring, of course. I will get started on the Mounjaro after a couple of days OFF the Januvia, to get all the Januvia out of my system.
Supper last night, for me, was Applegate gluten free chicken tenders and store brand gluten free waffles.
Breakfast was Greek yogurt with granola, and some sausage links. Orange was the juice of the day.
Work summons!

good morning
Ed, good that your car is back in tip top order, and Jason's air conditioning is getting fixed, need that in this weather. I was just remembering how cars didn't have air conditioning way back when.
It's 73F, 23C. Partly cloudy. High 91F, 33C, too hot for me. Winds SSW at 5 to 10 mph. Dinner out with friends last night was fun. I had Sunchoke Trumpet Pasta, with spring peas, black trumpet and pioppino mushrooms, pickled ramps, sunchoke sauce. Yum. Pete had Short Rib (8 oz) Creekstone Farm, KS with veal gravy, mashed yukon gold potatoes, butter glazed green beans. Followed up with a 'this or that wine tasting'. It was side by side cabernet sauvignon, pinot noir, and malbec, each from 2 different countries. Interesting. I think the cabernet from France was my favorite. I have my regularly scheduled massage appt this morning, and will see what else the day brings. Wishing all a pleasant Thursday. Stay cool. ⛅🌻🕊️😎

Good morning
It is currently 81F with a high of 88F and sunny. There is a slight breeze. Ed-It is good that your car is all fixed and that Jason's is getting fixed. Glad your Dr. visit went well. I hope the new meds work for you. My office is all finished. I am using an old desk chair that we had in the basement. It is a little worn, but will do the job for now and it is comfortable. Vix-your dinner sounds good, but I think Pete's sounds better. I am a meat and potato kind of gal. I will pass on the wine, it gives me heartburn. Have a good day and stay cool.😀

good morning
Ed, I hope the new medication works for you. It's supposed to really help with weight loss too. Yay! Good that you'll be closely monitored. Jo, congrats on getting your office finished! Hooray! I'm using an old chair too, while my daughter is using my office. I put a decorative pillow case on the seat! 😂 I like to try new things when I go out, and sometimes I just don't want meat or fish. Luckily the pasta was very light, and it was delicious. Irene, I'll bet you're enjoying the pool this week!
It's 74F, 23C. Sunny early then increasing clouds with some scattered thunderstorms this afternoon. Storms may contain strong gusty winds. High 96F, 36C. 🥵 Winds W at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 40%. We found a new park with a little woodland trail yesterday, a nice shady walk, and then went to Frederick and took another walk! 😂 I'll see what today brings. Wishing all an easy Friday. It's going to be a hot one! Stay cool.🌞⛅🌂🌻🕊️😎

Howdy all y'all. It's fabulous Friday!
We have 24C partly cloudy degrees with a forecast for clouds and some sun this morning with more clouds for this afternoon. A stray shower or thunderstorm is possible. High 33C. Winds light and variable. Chance of precipitation 24%.
We have a fairly busy weekend planned so I think I'll wait until Sunday night to start the injections, and will probably leave my weekly dose for that time period. That's when Jason does his Wegovy. Waiting until then will let me enjoy the pool party tomorrow and a dinner engagement Sunday night at Marlow's Tavern without worrying about initial effects.
I have laundry to fold so may work on that during breaks and lunch.
Supper last night was spaghetti for Jason, chicken tenders for me. The spaghetti was some of the last wheat spaghetti in the house. We both had some New York Texas Toast brand gluten free garlic cheese toast as a starter, with a little spaghetti sauce for dipping.
For breakfast I finished off the open bag of chicken tenders and warmed up a couple of gluten free waffles.
Work has already begun, I'm checking for updates to any of the software I'm currently testing.
