DR vixmom, I continue to hope for a happy outcome!

Thanks, I suspect Friday will be my last day

My sister posted on Facebook yesterday afternoon that she was home alone during a severe thunderstorm warning and the power was out.  When she hadn't posted anything further by noon today, I called both her landline and cell phone and got voicemail.  She finally called back about an hour ago and said they still don't have power, but are otherwise OK.  She said it was a doozy of a storm and trees are down, traffic lights are out, stores are closed due to no power and so forth.  She was just staying dark on social media to conserve battery power until her husband got their generator going.

Nothing else exciting is happening in my neck of the woods.  It's still a little cool for summer for my taste, I'm hoping that changes - or just wait for late August/September for summer weather to appear.

Cool  :o  What has your high temp been?

Today - it's suppose to be 72F. Right now is chilly and overcast.   Granted, I am on the Peninsula in the Bay Area, inland California and south and north is always warmer. 

Is that about what is was during our record breaking heat wave?

At the eleventh hour, the state Department of Human Services budget has been passed, meaning no shut-down and furlough.

Color me relieved.

Ah, sir, happy news, indeed!

Yes, very good news.

Actually, he's not as correct as he thinks he is.  He really should have said:  "LOOK, I'M JUST SAYING THAT THAT'S THE CORRECT USAGE."

It’s raining, and I’m happy.

It's cloudy and cool here in Tumwater...at least, so far.  I don't know if it'll clear up as the day goes on, but it's really nice right now!

It is currently a lovely 72 degrees here.

I think I’ll update my resume but take the summer for  myself unless an extraordinary opportunity presents itself.  I’m thinking about maybe driving down to visit the kids

I thought you might go visit them during your unwanted break from employment.

A smart move that didn't keep you from worrying a bit.

Their power was restored about an hour ago and she’s back on the grid!

Yes, the prosecution screwed up - they had no choice, really. Everyone's saying it's because he's rich, but that has nothing to do with the screw-up.

The first spring we moved here we the area filled with beautiful blooming rhododendrons.  Now when we walk they mostly look like the photo of the scorched plants :(

Cosby insists he is innocent and the women had consented to being drugged and having sex.  Maybe he truly believes this, and maybe his wife believes him.  Supposedly she is happy he is being released.  Fine, but why she has stayed married to him boggles my mind.

Starting Jazz on a Summer's Day. The movie is fairly incredible. Seems to have been filmed with a crew of about two.
