Good morning. Happy Monday!
Face, I hope the new (old) place is starting to feel like home.
We had a decent weekend. F-I-L had his 91st birthday. The special days for them are almost over. M-I-L’s birthday is in October.
Young ArGee’s school has her in the classroom setting up this week. Students return next week. It’s hard to believe how early some states start.
And while the weekend Wordles were nothing worth sharing, the week starts off with a 3.

Good morning. No word from ‘Face yet this morning. There’s a lot to be done after a move.
Congratulations to your father-in-law.
I understand. I still remember the line from “The Incredibles” where the wife calls her husband to celebrate 6 months after their latest move because the last box is finally unpacked.
Good Monday Morning!
It seems to me that the school year is lengthening in required days all over...
Good job on the 3-spot, I haven’t seen one of those in quite some time...
The Wordle editor must really be trying to get me to swear off golf...

(In the golf analog, this Bogey on the 11th hole puts me at one over for the round... ⛳️)
I suspect that it may take some time to get her Internet service hooked up, or even the hot spot working...
😂🤣
I have to admit I read it as “my daughter has no sense of humor” and with that mistake, I had no sense of humor either.
Nicely played; it took me four strokes to hole in.
And I’ve got to say I’m finding your golf analogy more and more apt. I’ve looked at it other ways, but the similitude with a game in which a lower score is better isn’t easily escaped.

Topping out at ninety-blech out at my place, today.
Makes me glad to be in my Office overlooking SF Bay.
The City skyline leaves a wistful feeling as it looms in the retreating morning fog. Near enough to remind me of what was, yet distant enough that what is remains obscured.
A new High School adventure begins tomorrow.
Four years of exhilleriffying WOO-HOO!
It’s as close to cliff diving as I ever get; watching as the the fledglings pitch headlong into the social morass, taking my heart with them into the drama.
Seven more years; four for this one then three more for the youngest.
That’s equal to 21 years for a normal person.
I’m gonna be as old as freakin’ Yoda by the time this is through.
I’m praying I don’t also LOOK like Yoda.
Norman may have saved someone’s life, today.
Being late may have avoided a lethal pileup in morning traffic.
One may never know what Norman’s staid, quiet heroism may have accomplished.
I had the benefit of your lead in to get me focused properly...
I am pretty sure that it was dfwgator that came up with the golf analog... and yes, it works very well for Wordle...
I can’t come close to understanding the challenges of putting kids through schooling at this point in our country and society... it must be challenges galore... hopefully with some great moments mixed in... best to you in this ongoing endeavor...
Well, it’s a charter, not purely in the public district, and for all that they’re on about “social emotional learning” (kin to CRT) that’s not their focal point. They’re also seeing less than 1/3 the disciplinary issues of the local public schools, and — beginning this year — they have eliminated D’s from the Grade Scale; the students score at least a C or they fail the class. That seems to be a pretty solid affirmation of commitment to elevated academic rigor, which gives me some hope.
We shall see.
I’m certain that y’all will look just fine!
Excellent point.
It could be worse. You could come out looking like Jar-Jar.
We’re having a storm.
We got a little rain yesterday evening, but not much.
Good morning. Happy Twosday!
We’re back to seasonable weather. It doesn’t really get hot up here but the locals think it does. It helps to have the southern blood that remembers what heat is.
The Princess has taken to licking her paws. It started after the last major thunderstorm. Hopefully she’ll give it up soon. It’s driving us nuts.
Not a great Wordle day. But I didn’t get an X.
