Hi
I'm back from walking and no cents. The Temperature out the door was 80 degrees and It was not comfortable even when the breeze blew. There is rain and thunderstorms in the forecast for later today.

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.

NEW JERSEY (FOX5NY) - Never short on ideas for things to tax, lawmakers in New Jersey are considering a tax on tap water.

I could see that we already hit 100% for rain when I left the house, It is drying outside currently. OTOH if the weather today is like Monday's then we will be having bands of rain going through all afternoon.

I did Laundry Tuesday and as soon as I get some motivation back I need to take the clean sheets and put them on the bed so I can wash the old ones. First thing is the printer table as I also use it as my desk to write checks and I have two of them to write so I can mail them tomorrow

Yesterday I was rolling the Old Radio Shack Printer Table over in front of the TV I use a larger 42 inch Monitor when the Bar that the wheels are mounted to on one side came off. So now I need to take everything off of it so I can turn it upside down and reattach the wheels. It is sort of old since I bought it back when the home Printers were either Dot Matrix or For really nice looking is slow printing Daisy Wheel Printers. I did make something to block the opening where the pin feed paper came up so that the keyboard, Mouse etc. did not fall through. Call me cheap but I want to fix it rather than replace it if I can even find something that size with wheels.

Hi
I'm back from walking and no cents. The Temperature out the door was 67 degrees and It felt OK for the the outbound leg, then semi uncomfortable walking due to humidity. The Dew Point is in the 6os which is considered uncomfortable. I did see two deer run across the road after I passed my turnaround point.

Hi
I'm back from walking and no cents. The Temperature out the door was 68 degrees and It felt OK for the the outbound leg, Once again semi uncomfortable walking due to humidity. Less than one block from the House I took a jog to the left side of the street to stay clear of the Skunk on the right side of the roadway.

Hi
I'm back from walking and no cents. The Temperature out the door was 75 degrees and uncomfortable walking due to humidity.
Today the forecast is for rain and since I saw where it had rained lightly before I left, Outbound I was drizzled on for part of the way, Likewise on the return, Not heavy enough to put on the rain poncho thankfully as that would have blocked what little breeze there was. Bottom Line I am going that we already hit the 100% mark for rain today with this mornings weather forecast showing more and heavier rain headed this way. The overnight temperatures did not drop worth a darn as it was 76 at 10PM

A photo of the message appeared in a resident’s Facebook page July 25th. That resident’s post said the message — “We started the fires! Be ready” — was left the night before on State Highway 46 near the Gilpin County Fairgrounds.

Several major wildfires ignites across the state and most if not all counties enacted fire restrictions or outright fire bans during that time.

One of those wildfires, the Spring Fire, has burned almost 108,000 acres of forest and 148 buildings, including many homes. A man has been arrested for starting it; he is charged with arson.

Hi
I'm back from walking and once again no cents. The Temperature out the door was 75 degrees and once again very uncomfortable walking due to humidity. I thought I heard rain around 3AM and sure enough when I looked out before heading out I could see where it had rained, not a heavy rain.

Thursday I took and scrambled an egg and after pulling it sprinkled some Shredded Cheddar on it a touch of salt and useful as is or in a sandwich.

We had lunch at the Chinese Buffet, I could have done better
I had a slice of their small Pizza, Sadly it was much tastier than the National Pizza Chain Little Caesars', Despite being held in a metal tray on the hot table their French Fries were tasty too. The Chicken Nuggets I tried were Meh
Yesterday was not that great looking, We hit intermittent rain going to and returning from the Chinese Buffet.
The item I ate the most of was the Beef Broccoli followed by Some Butter Cabbage assorted types of Chicken including wings

Then as the Coup De Grace My NS frozen delivery arrived after 3PM when I was feeling sluggish from the Buffet.
