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

We made it through hump day. The weekend can almost be seen.

[PROCON]

Good work day here and it's 95 degrees HOT, but thankfully my A/C keeps me cool.

Resting up for tomorrow.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, radu...will you get to dry out for a few days? More rain?

We got a little over night and sprinkles on my drive to work.

[mylife]

Better than last week :)

[radu]

Howdy, Kathy.

The phone rang right after I hit ‘post’ but I’m done with that now.

We might get a little rain overnight. Had a brief shower this afternoon just before I headed out for the groceries but I managed to get that chore done in the dry.
We should be dry until Sunday, then there are good chances for rain the next several days after that.

Maybe you’ll get some more sprinkles. There are a lot of little showers scattered across southern AK.

Did you three make it through the past few days with sanity intact? :-)

[radu]

Howdy, PRO.

Ugh! I feel for ya with that heat. Let’s hear it for AC! LOL

Been nice and cool here the past few days and we have a couple more to go before it gets hot again. Not quite as hot as out there but it’ll be a muggy hot. Yuck.

[luvie]

[SkyDancer]

Hai! Yeah, allergies kicking in. Oh well.

[luvie]

Howdy,radu!

How was your day? Uneventful trip to the grocery? Is it still on the cool side there? It’s gradually heating up here. Blah!

[PROCON]

Hey radu!

Yup, summer is almost here, but here in the high desert we're used to it.

You never told me how the 'lil darlins' are doing, are they behavin'?

[radu]

Howdy, LUV.

It’s been a good day but a little busy. Got the errands and groceries dealt with and now have the last load of laundry in the dryer.

Still cool for a couple more days, then the heat ratchets up again. it’s June so it’s to be expected. :-)

[radu]

We already had a long round of 90 degree days and it wasn’t summer yet. LOL Now we’re enjoying temps we should have had in May. But not for long.
At least you have dry heat and not a sauna like we have during summer. Not really looking forward to that.

The kittehs are pretty quiet at the moment but how long that lasts is anyone’s guess. They’ll probably all wake up at once and it’ll be like we’re at Talladega. LOL

[MoochPooch]

Evening, Kathy!

[luvie]

Yeah, it’s June but I really wish the 80s would continue and not ratchet up to the high 90s or 100s. I need to live in a cooler summer climate. LOL!

Glad your day was nice and that you got all those errands done. Maybe you can chill tomorrow. That’s always a good thing.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Mostly...come on weekend!! The next 2 days will be busy as well. No rest. LOL!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Better than last week...I’ll bet!! LOL!

[Kathy in Alaska]

This IS our land, and Bless those that DO the protecting!

Thanks, Luv.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, Mooch...are you doing a lot of editing?

[radu]

Don’t get to chill tomorrow. It dawned on me that there’s a Republican women’s meeting in the morning so I just got a shower. Better tonight than getting up even earlier than I already have to in the morning. Just glad I remembered early enough tonight! LOL

Our upper 80s this weekend and next week will probably feel like 90s due to the humidity. With rain chances every day starting Sunday, it’s going to be steamy. Be glad you don’t have that!

[luvie]

I am definitely glad I don’t have steamy! The heat is bad enough, but at least the AC helps when the humidity isn’t 95%.

Enjoy your meeting tomorrow. Guess you won’t get to be a vampire tonight, huh!
