The emergency personnel have reached the woman and are bringing her up the hillside.  She is conscious and alert.

That is good.  If she really fell because she climbed a fence I wonder if she will be charged for the rescue.

I was up early to make a fruit salad to take to breakfast, before our outing, and then we went for an hour walk.  We ran into our neighbor friends and took most of the walk with them.

I watched I, Tonya this afternoon while Richard read the Sunday papers in the other room.  He would have hated the movie.

DR JANE there is a photo on BookFace with the tiny desk....and the shelves nearly done....hopefully the table will be moved in tomorrow, and I can post a photograph of the furnished-nearly-finished room.

Nice link DR FJL.

Watching the Wimbledon Men's Finals....

My portable air conditioner which has to vent OUT a window is in my former bedroom and hasn't been on for a few days since I moved into the big house....

I think it is time to relocate to the bedroom where the air-conditioner is waiting.

I have no air conditioning. :'(


Mine is just a portable one that I bought at Walmart, but it does wonders for the bedroom.

I don't really have any place to put a portable one if it has to vent out of a window.  My entire place is three stories and practically no doors, so the cold just runs down the stairs and the heat just rises up to my bedroom and out my skylight...when I keep it open, which is all the time until the winter when it's too cold to keep it open.

You need one of these, DR George.  I think our DR Jeanne has one similar.

Yes! Mine just arrived. It's a slightly larger unit, by Aiker for about $47. For some reason Amazon won't deliver the smaller units to California. The larger ones have a larger "tank." I'll let you all know how it works out. I don't expect it to cool an entire room--just a few feet. We'll see.

I'm starting to watch On the Beach, which I haven't seen in ages. We had to read book in ninth grade English. Well, we had our choice of it, Brave New World and something else, which I don't remember. It might have been 1984. Anyway, I chose On the Beach.

This weekend, Bonnie and I watched Touts les Matins du Monde, a wonderful French film about the composer Sainte Colombe, and Hitchcock's Rebecca, which was as wonderful as I remembered it being.

Vixmom, I had to think of you this morning as I had some amazing enchiladas. The handmade corn tortillas were stuffed with smoked brisket and topped with lightly spicy jalapeno and red chile sauce, then topped with crumbled cotija cheese. The flavor was insanely good. So were the borracho beans on the side.

I must remedy that, too!  Fortunately, I have some ice cream in my freezer.

I just ordered an Echo Show. I figured that if I were studying AI for work, I might as well do some AI living.

It was almost 50% off with Amazon Prime Day, which is less tasty to me than National Ice Cream Day.

I watched I, Tonya this afternoon while Richard read the Sunday papers in the other room.  He would have hated the movie.

Did you like I, TONYA DR Ginny?

It had its moments.  I remember the story very well and it was interesting to see it retold from so many points of view.

Sadly, when I looked in the freezer there were no more "Skinny Cow" ice cream sandwiches.  I could have sworn there was one more.
