Last night’s main course was smoked pork ribs that Sharon had been gifted by a client for whom she’d done some writing. They arrived frozen and she didn’t have freezer space, so we stored them for a year or so until she learned that Steve had the know-how to do the cooking. Marianne prepared corn on the cob and salad and I took a chocolate cake and ice cream for dessert.

Did you eat on their china or paper plates?

Met friends at Starbucks and then walked over to La Madeleine (https://lamadeleine.com/) for lunch. We were outside so I hope it was safe.

And the music resumed!

I doubt you will be friendly with them now. Vibes this was just a special activity and not an example of what is to come.

Well up until last night we never heard a peep from that house.

We used their dishes, glassware, and cutlery. Marianne said we could bring our own, but she’s a microbiologist and they have a dishwasher, so we figured we’d be OK.

Maybe they were celebrating the showing of Santo and the Treasure of Dracula on EL REY......it was the rare version with much NUDITY....

Certainly a reason for a party.

I think we are taking paper plates when we go to our friend's house for dinner. It won't be a separate table but it will be outside. They do have a new dishwasher so maybe we will rethink that.

Now that the Fat Orange slug squatting in the White House is going for voter suppression and destroying the Post Office, I hope there will still be a postbox at the corner tomorrow. They've been removing them from Broadway.

I'm up, I'm up - ten hours of sleep, up at one and dealing with the guest who's being persnickety so I'm gonna cut said guest loose and go for another right now.

I'm tired of sending e-mails to no response - REALLY tired and about to get irritated with certain folks.

I rarely call in favors, but I am for the anniversary show - really simple favors and one person out of ten has gotten back to me.

bk · « **Reply #108 on:** August 16, 2020, 04:40:47 PM »

That's basically what I've been doing all day. I've moved on to the next guest and we'll see if that's a yay or nay if they ever get back to me. You would think since everyone is basically staying home that they'd check their e-mails occasionally.

Had Taco Bell for lunch and am only at 850 calories, so that's good.

Can you send them texts to tell them to read their emails?

We went to the park this morning and fed the ducks. Well, mostly flung cracked corn at the ground. I'm sure the ducks and pigeons had quite a party after we left.

Laura · « **Reply #114 on:** August 16, 2020, 05:57:29 PM »

Hot flashes, eh? I can tell you about hot flashes. I have been having them for the last 15 years. Yes, 15. They are never going to end.

Laura · « **Reply #115 on:** August 16, 2020, 06:02:52 PM »

I get up at 4:30 every morning to take my morning walk at 5:15. It is too hot here to be out much later than 7 a.m.

I am sorry. I had heard of people having that problem.

Vixmom asked on FB about the derecho in Iowa. I hadn't thought about checking in about it. It hit central and eastern Iowa from around Des Moines east. It was 30 minutes of over 100 mph winds There is tons and tons of damage. Luckily, it didn't hit my part of the state. We had a storm and we had some strong winds, but not enough to do damage other than a tree limb here or there. It hit the 4 largest cities in Iowa as well as killing over 1/3 the corn crop in the state. It happened Monday and there are still a lot of people without power. It's bad. Feeling very grateful it didn't hit here
