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

We have 20 (C) mostly cloudy degrees with an expected partly cloudy high of 27 and 85% chance of precipitation that could include thunderstorms.

I am expecting to test some (hopefully) final tweaks to our latest software product today. Still laundry to fold.

good morning.
Been busy between pt and getting the yard done and opening the pool. I was in the pool yesterday
Hi Ed ,Vix and Jo
take care

Good afternoon;
Currently 83F and sunny. We had a few sprinkles this morning.
I had the septic system pumped this morning. It was a good timing. If we had waited a few more
months, we probably would have problems.
My coffee maker decided to stop working mid brew. I went out and got a new one after work.
I also made lemon poppyseed muffins.
Have a nice day and stay cool!

good morning
Nice that you were able to use your pool, Irene. Hope the PT is going well.
Jo, I'm glad we're on city sewer now. Lemon poppyseed muffins are delicious.
Ed, sounds like work is humming along. Your meals always sound yummy.
We had a lot of downpours/T-storms yesterday, and tornedo warnings, but all is well.

good morning all
Hi Irene.
Ed, hope you're enjoying the sunny weather, and can relax this weekend.
Jo, we are lucky so far with the weather. Yum, apricot jam! Are you recommending any books? I just finished 'Sipsworth', an odd sort of book, but I mostly enjoyed it. Before that I read 'Iona Iverson's rules for Commuting'. Both were about older women, and connecting to the world around them.
We picked Will up from preschool yesterday afternoon, which is always a treat. 💗 5 year old boys are so imaginative.
I did some laundry and moved some of my coleus plants outside. They were starting to take over our morning room!
It's currently 66F, 19C. A good deal of sunshine. High 83F, 28C. Winds WNW at 10 to 15 mph.
I have some cleaning to do, that I didn't get around to yesterday. And the sun is shining today, so will spend some time outdoors.
Wishing all a splendid Saturday and a happy weekend. 🌞🌞🌞🌺🕊️

Good evening;
Currently 73F and breezy. We had a rain shower this afternoon.
I am sad to say that Sophie passed away this morning. She was fine yesterday, so it came as a
shock.
Ed-I hope you get your laundry folded this weekend.
Hi vix and Irene.
Have a good evening.

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

We have 24 (C) sunny degrees with an expected mostly sunny high of 32 and 15% chance of precipitation.

So sorry to hear about Sophie.

I guess I'll get out to the grocery store(s) today. And maybe fold that laundry.

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

We have 21 (C) partly cloudy degrees with an expected partly cloudy high of 29 and 15% chance of precipitation.

I did not sleep well last night and swear I heard thunder, but not very close. At any rate, I'm up and I guess ready to get ready for work. LOL.

SCAM OF THE WEEK:
Malware Office Suite

“You get what you pay for,” and this week’s scam is no exception. Cybercriminals are distributing a “free” pirated version of Microsoft Office across torrenting websites. The catch is that it’s actually malware. If you download and install it, the malware can begin harvesting your personal data.

If you download the malicious Microsoft Office file, the installation process appears to be legitimate. The installer looks professional and even allows you to select the version of Microsoft Office you would like to install. However, if you run the file, malware will install on your computer. The malware is designed to avoid detection from most antivirus systems. Even if your antivirus software scans and removes it, this particular malware can re-install itself afterward. This “free” version of Microsoft may actually cost you something after all - your personal data!

Follow these tips to avoid falling victim to a malware scam:

Never download software from unofficial sources. A pirated version of the software isn’t an official release, and it may contain malware.

If something is too good to be true, it probably is. Microsoft Office is a software that you would normally pay for, and a free version isn’t likely to be legitimate.
Be sure to follow your organization’s instructions regarding antivirus software and data backups. Having updated software and data backups can help to protect your machine from a malware infection.

Glad you got your laundry folded, Ed! Good luck with the perio.
I finished my Father's Day shopping yesterday, and stopped off at the library.

Off to craft sessions today.
Wishing all a fine Tuesday. 🌼🌻🌤️🕊️

There are angels at McDonald's.

I didn't have time for lunch before my 1:00 periodontal exam, but figured my breakfast would last me until I could get a late lunch after.

All the same, I had intended to bring some glucose tablets with me, but forgot.

I was fine, until, while sitting at McDonald's, waiting for my food, I started feeling a glucose crash starting.

Knowing that the food I had ordered wasn't going to kick in very fast, I was going to see if there was a packet of sugar or something in the drink area.

BUT, I didn't need to. The guy who brought my meal, brought with it the little tub of pancake syrup that someone had used to hold my ticket down in the back.

The syrup didn't fit with the meal at all, but I just slurped that down, then ate my double cheeseburger and fries and was fine. 🙂

Good morning,
I will be happy when I am done with pt after awhile it gets tiring.
the pool is great thanks Vix for thinking about me
Jo you must be pretty happy your son and family is coming to visit
Ed so glad you are ok
take care everyone

good morning
Hi Jo.
Irene, I know PT gets tiring after a while. I have printouts of several different exercise routines they gave me that I rotate through at home, so I'm not doing the same thing all the time. Glad you're enjoying the pool. I'm sure it's refreshing in this heat!
Ed, sounds like work is keeping you busy.
I have a massage appt this morning. I'm sure it'll be great. I promised her a cheesecake recipe long ago and kept forgetting to bring it, so this morning, I put a copy in my purse.
It's currently 67F Lots of sunshine. High 87F. Winds SSW at 5 to 10 mph.
Wishing all a happy day. 🌞🏵️🌹🌺🌻🌼🕊️
