Today is a hot day in Alabama, typical of late July and August. It is only the first of oing daily waJune! I'm dtering already. I just watched a tortoise tumble out of the bushes and is lumbering across the yard. I hope he finds a small rodent and has a wonderful feast!

I’m glad your surgery worked out well. I ruptured my L5S1 disk in 1990. In ‘97, I had a laminectomy and that was a good thing. Life returned to normal. I now have ruptured my L4L5 disk. A new one and I’m agreeing with you. But I think I’ll wait until I can get to the Philippines. They’re doing the more advanced work on spinal treatment.

Good morning! Happy June everyone. Soggy wet has been replaced with miserable hot here in NE Ohio. Heat index 98 yesterday. Well, soggy wet has not actually been replaced , it is still here...just muggy miserable now.

Busy next few months for me. Issues to decide upon & projects to complete & some travel here & there along the way.

With all the natural disasters lately it is hard to be excited with today being the beginning of the hurricane season.

Oh an HAPPY BIRTHDAY TONY SNOW! we miss you

June is a very good month. Congratulations on the new addition. I’m busy working on baby things, but we won’t be seeing Piper Noelle until late September.

Dolly, prayers up for you in the coming season.

Oops! There is a rabbit out in the yard. At least they’re providing some fertilizer.

Good morning, Jemian

We hit triple digits today on the heat index. Oh, joy!

Wouldn’t be quite so bad if my AC didn’t go on the proverbial fritz over the weekend. Remembering pre-AC days .. shades drawn, light clothing, all fans going, drink lots of water, stay inactive. Or maybe I’ll just go hang out at a mall ;)

Good Morning, All! Greetings from southern New Hampshire!

The temps have moderated from the near triple digits of Monday...we are seriously considering a/c!

I started the chicken condo last evening. I moved my chop saw out to the back of the shop where the construction site is located and Jack and I positioned the piers. Tonight, after his last Music Awards Banquet (Time sure flies!), I plan to build the platform and continue working until the Skeeters drive me inside.

I started a new album on Facebook for this project.

While working last night, I realized that after 41 years as an engineer/architect and 32 years as a soldier, I have finally degenerated to the point where I have become the general contractor to a flock of chickens!

Somewhere, back there, I lost the bubble!

Yup! I remember pre-AC. It is so humid here that shoes and books would mildew overnight. It is hotter here in the summer than it is in Sentani, Papua.

I have a bit of a headache. I do not like headaches. I’ve taken aspirin and I’m drinking water to make sure I’m hydrated. But I think I’ll be staying indoors today.

Yes, but your days are "your own." You have to do no man's bidding (except for Barb and Jack). You've lived the American Dream! Good on you! I'm signing off for a couple of hours to pay serious attention to this headache. If I can manage it now, I won't have to call in the heavy artillery.

You are so funny, Duke! You're doing what makes you happy.......a reward for all your previous hard and dedicated work.

Good morning, everyone.

Yes, apparently.

JRandom is expecting a granddaughter this month and we are expecting Piper Noelle (JT and the Bride) in late September.

Good morning everybody, thanks for the thread and ping Jem.

Toby, we ate out at a breakfast buffet this morning and I made it a point to have some grits. Good stuff!

Hi Dolly and everyone. I just got back in from the ranch. Everyone is busy hauling water all dirt tanks and dirt overflows at the windmills are dry now so it is getting critical conditions. Albuquerque news last night said the dryest year on all record books. We haven’t seen rain since last September—long time without a drop. Had a wonderful weekend with all my kids and grandkids, and granddogs so now back to business. Dolly I realize you are “Ghost” but I just don’t have time to do any boards any justice, just try a little here. I have some busy work down at church and then off to get my hair cut and bank work this afternoon. Yes Jermain I am living for Nov. 12. NM is such a heavy Democrat state, but we did elect a really good conservative Republican Gov (Suzanna Martinez) who is making some really good changes. Maybe there is hope Denco

Jemian, Intense heat/humidity gives me headaches, too, unless I do absolutely NOTHING. (something I’m actually quite good at!)

Keep that water going and DO stay inside. We have a “red alert” telling all vulnerable categories (elderly/asthmatics, etc) to stay indoors. 105, as the index is here is 105, and has to be worse in AL.

It is officially 99°F here and I am only going outside to walk the dog. Water is a must and I'm in a quiet room with the shades drawn.

Your advice is good and I'm following it to the letter.
