Debbie Sorry to hear your husband has to deal with this stress. Not sure if they catch the shooter if they would do anything with the cops being defunded and criminals being released out of prison. So much crime now and no motive.

Grandmalie If the scales says 15 lbs lost in one week, go with it, seeing is believing!

Woke up in the night to go to the bathroom and noticed we had a leak in the ceiling. Just waiting for a roofer to come and have a look at the roof to see if any tiles are loose or if it's the guttering. He said he'd be an hour and it's over two hours. Called to see if he'd been delayed and found out he'd been already, but I hadn't answered aagghh !! Stupid doorbell not working. His wife said he's still close by so will pop around shortly. (I've put new batteries in the doorbell.) I wouldn't mind, but I kept looking out of the window to see if I could see his van, and obviously the minute I start doing bits and bobs he turns up. Wish he'd tried knocking on the door.
Still catching up, but hope everyone is doing okay. Sorry to hear you are not feeling well Heather, hope it's only a 24hr bug or something.
Take care

Thank you to Debbie and Kim for checking in - we worry when the fires go up in California, and appreciate it when you let us know you're OK. Sorry it's so stinking hot! Debbie, I'm glad your husband wasn't at work.

Debbie how awful, so glad your husband was not at work, but very worrying all the same.

hilarious!
Re wringers on washers, my mum had a gas boiler type washer (yes gas!) she did have a mangle/wringer but can't remember if it was on another washer or put on the edge of the boiler. Thank goodness we don't have to wash clothes like that anymore

Morning, afternoon and evening, all,
Just finished using the nuclear option on Facebook, downloaded all the photos, and then deleted the account. They don't make deleting easy, and even when you finally get around to "Yes, delete" for what feels like the 40th try, they tell you, "Well, we'll keep it alive for the next 30 days, just in case you change your mind."
Talked it over with Corey, and realized I was allowing my daughter's silly actions on Facebook to affect me, like tagging her dad but not me on a picture of the grands, and various other high schooler crapolini.
(That's a new Italian pasta with no calories, but lots of angst.)
And no, I couldn't be mistaken--the child has tagged me on EVERYthing on Facebook for years.
So, I thought about it, slept on it, and burned my account completely down. I'm really good at stepping away from actions which no longer bring joy and there is too much sickness infesting Facebook and not enough healthiness to counterbalance. Those who love me have either my phone number or my email, or they are on this thread or all three.
Feel as though a weight's been lifted.
And the scale shows it too, lost another pound, and am on the weight loss track where I'm comfortable, between a half pound and a pound per week. I averaged out at 1403 calories daily for the last week, and 1450 for the week prior to that, so that's about where I want to be as well. Takes some of the daily pressure off--thank you, Machka for the observation that averaging out over the week makes more sense. I've incorporated that into my routine, and it's been very successful.
Later, y'all,
Love,
Lisa

Lisa, Jake and I deleted our Facebook accounts a few years ago and haven't missed them at all. His daughter was good about posting photos of her kids and also about saying things that hurt his feelings. I just lost interest in most of what was posted about anything. It was a good decision. Yesterday was a scorcher for us but nothing compared to what most of you are facing. We have a heat pump that keeps us cool day and night and I limit my outdoor time to before noon, When I was walking yesterday I stopped to talk to a man I know, who was wearing a shirt with a political statement on it that I thought was fabulous. I found that I could buy the shirt online but didn't buy it when I realized that I wouldn't wear it because I didn't want to stir up that particular subject with anyone (not even people who agree with me), so I just think about the statement and chuckle and enjoy my own private joke at no one else's expense.

Still under par. Boo! I've cancelled tomorrow's meeting with my friend and put it back until Friday. I did stagger out to the deli to buy essentials. DH not brilliant either. I did my morning exercises, but it was a drag through.

Lisa - I don’t blame you for deleting FB I’ve thought about it, but I have a lot of friends and family that live away so it helps us stay connected. The one that annoy me I unfollow.
Debbie - that will be hard on all staff not just the ones working when it occurred.
Heather - feel better soon. Have you gotten tested for the dreaded Covid?
I have had the Grands since 10 on Saturday. We spent Saturday and most of yesterday at our youngest daughter’s new house. The grands were impressed we had a campfire at their house complete with S’mores and glow stick fun. Today we will set up the sprinkler in our yard. It is supposed to be in the low 30’s so that should be refreshing. I thought about the spray park but we are concerned about Covid.
Tomorrow they will be going home and I’ll be cleaning up. Wednesday I am off just to rest up.

Debbie in Napa Valley: I hope things don’t escalate in your area and you can stay comfortable. :flowerforyou:
Lisa: I still have my facebook account, but rarely go there. I have two good friends who are there often and once it a while I check in with them. I also get messages from the city there. :ohwell:
Healther: I am glad you’re doing a little bet better. I hope you and Johnny are improving every day.
We’re having another hot day. The forecast is for a high of 91F. Luckily we have air-conditioning and a pleasant breeze outside. I’m looking forward to a trail ride tomorrow. I hope the weather will be moderate enough to actually go for the ride.

Disappointed in myself! I was up at 2 AM. Slept OK but was waken with urinary discomfort. I was wide awake after the said business was completed and noticed my balance a bit off as my Tai Chi was biased to one side. The old cold and heat treatment helped lift the numbness from my face and restored my balance back to my normal imbalance. So I have sat here while the mercury is rising instead of walking in the cool. Now cracking the whip on my own kitten, keister, posterior, donkey, butt, buttock, backside, biffy, rump, cheeks, bottom, or the forbidden three-letter (a) word and out and off.

Facebook is like my own personalised online magazine with stories about cycling and travel and beautiful homes and gardens and cats ... and a selection of people I like.
I like that I can customise it to see what I want to see.
