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

It’s hump day and we made it. I can see the weekend from tippy toes.

A good week so far?

NICE weather you’re having and I’d say all of you are enjoying it thoroughly!

It was hot and muggy here. Cooled off a tad during the couple of brief showers but then the sun came back out and it got steamy again.

Kittehs are all settled, surprisingly, and kicked back I’m watching Survivor. A nice evening.

They're doing great work, Army Bro! I visit that site regularly - I have posted tributes to our Fallen that I found there. Lately, I have been diverted by events in 3-D Land and have not been able to fulfill this mission as I should.

Good evening, Mac...*HUGS*...are things blooming now?

We are almost getting to 50 during the days. Melting, melting, melting! And I can drive to and from work in “daylight”.

I need watching these days.

I took off Thursday...doctor appointment for my Mom. Alzheimer’s? Dementia? Hallucinations are really bad. Then they should be able to provide me with the necessary resources for what we are facing. Things have just fallen apart the last couple weeks.

Then her first shot of Supartz in one knee, and first shot in the other knee on Friday....and for the next 4 weeks. Hopefully we can keep her mobile for a while longer.

Things are blooming, Kathy! Things are getting warm here - we were in the high 80's a couple days ago.

Mrs. Mac Nessa gifted my with a full detailing of War Wagon Mac Nessa - I guess I have to keep it clean now.

And you've been doing a great job in remembering Our Fallen.

I wasn't sure if you knew about the FB agency.

Thanks Navy Bro!

Good evening, radu...rain?

Tomorrow is Mom and Senior Care doctors. Hoping for some answers and some meds to help. And her first “jello” shot. First in the other knee on Friday.

I am off for home. I’ll get a picture of all the melting. Still a lot, but melting fast.

Sounds like retirement takes some work. I’m getting close to trying.

I bet Old China Hand told that old Lab dog more than his wife and that was not good for her.

My Ex says I never knew what you did, and she is correct.

Talk to her about the past. She'll sing, even if he whispered.
