I bought a fan over a month ago but so far I haven't been able to use it. Heading for more rain but at least the flood watches have stopped for the Interior.






You haven't been able to use it yet? It hasn't gotten warm enough by you then?

I just noticed on that Amazon listing that it's selling for $100 more than I bought it for a few weeks back.
Plus it's on a new card that I'm only about $300 away from getting a $200 statement credit. My A/C is basically free this summer.

Do Right, Be Right. :)

I didn't buy a private jet the other day. That makes me a multimillionaire.

And you included your completely fallacious canard.

No, I haven't and no it hasn't. I am so looking forward to some warm, dry weather Jack. You have no idea. I am tired of a couple of days dry then about a week of rain. It's the beginning of June for heaven's sake!

This turkey is still slightly squirrelly.

Yesterday I chipped away, so to speak, on cleaning up that "compost pile" area. The farther down I dig, the more leafmold I find, so this time for one 65 gallon bin of leves to be shredded I managed to shovel up a whole 33-gallon bin of compost. But every now and again I come across a layer of pristine leaves ... it's like a friggin' archaeological dig!

It was too beastly hot today to do anything outside, especially since i goofed and slept late. The only thing I did was water the veggie garden and take the dog for a short walk. The veggies are growing spectacularly; the zucchini and tomato just started flowering, the peppers have been flowering for a week or more, the beets will need to be thinned soon (beet greens! yay!) and the melons are growing their fourth set of leaves.

But since my outdoor work was minimal, I did indoor stuff and we did the weekly shopping.

Beef prices are still out of sight. The best I could snag was "manager's special" ground beef, out of which I made empanada burgers (onion, salt, paprika, flour, cumin, cinnamon, raisins, green olives and - for those not allergic - chopped cooked potatoes) with cole slaw (I make the BEST!) and cherries (on sale!) for dessert. But since I'm allergic to beef, I had sardines instead. Not that it makes any difference since I can't taste much anyway, and the family really likes these burgers!

Well, kitchen cleanup time.

Signy, since you did the cooking, I hope you have cleanup help!

It seems like all the dryness is concentrated on NoCal and Oregon. Somebody messed up the weather order!

As for me, I was doing a lot of cleanup/ tidyup yesterday and kinked my back again. So last night I used the heating pad which helped enough to let me walk around today, but it was an uncomfortable, restless night what with trying to stay centered in it. So today I decided to do a lot of sit-down work.

I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.

You're just looking to get into an argument.

My mood is too good today. No more time for your BS. Got a big day tomorrow.
