Good evening again, Kathy - the heat here today has been withering - not that hot in absolute degrees, but the humidity approaches 100%.

Tomorrow, we expect to hit 97F. For the "Day of Rage" we're expecting mid-90's.

Good evening, Janey...((HUGS))...did you fly the parachutists yet?

[luvie]

Who knew! Of course, I’m not French, so..... :)

[luvie]

What’s the “Day Of Rage”?

Did you go to work today? How did it go? It’s hot here, too. 103 or so. Ugh!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Thanks, Sand...((HUGS))...God Bless them indeed!

Is it hot at your house? Mid 70s here is VERY HOT. Windows all open and fans going. I have 2 aimed at my desk. d:o)

[Kathy in Alaska]

Then it is “Good Morning, Larry!”....I fell asleep just after I posted. Only about 3 hours sleep Tuesday night.

Glad you stopped and hope you had a good sleep. Happy Thursday!

[SkyDancer]

Greetings to all at the Canteen!

To all our military men and women, past and present,
THANK YOU

[radu]

Howdy, ms. feather!

What a cute lil kitteh. Not one of ours but we have a couple who look like her. LOL

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, Mayor, and thank you for today’s sustenance for body and soul.

We made it!! Thursday is almost here. Have a good rest of the week.

[radu]

Ohhhh....I wish I was doing what that kitten is doing. ZZZZZZ!

Why don't I have any trouble believing that? With your absence last night, I figured you were loaded with "homework" and were awake til the wee hours dealing with it.

[radu]

Howdy do, Conor. *HUGZ*

Ugh! It sounds like you have the same weather we have and it’s no fun, is it?
The Dog Days of Summer are here with a vengeance.

[radu]

LOL! Now that’s funny!
