When did "donut" become a correct spelling? When I was a kid it was "doughnut."

I hope no one brings donuts.

I don't think anyone else has ever said that.      :D

But curious to hear the results of the experiment.

We are supposed to get up to 97 today, with a "feels like" of 110.

DR ChasSmith, how's your weather? We have high humidity, dark skies, and a ot of thunder at the moment.

Rain has stopped and it's brightening up. Yes to high humidity, and we're bracing ourselves for the coming heat. Thanks to that rain, it should be a real steamer. Just what we needed.

I prefer doughnut myself. But we like to shorten things.

Break #2
The floors are vacuumed. Everything is mopped except for the section of the bathroom where the litter box and litter mat sit. As soon as the bathroom floor is dry, I will move the litter box to a dry spot and finish mopping the bathroom. I'm rather pleased how easily it's gone so far.

We had a fairly cool day here yesterday at 104. Which is nice when your theater tickets are for 2 p.m.

Whether rectangle or round, the real winner will be the berry streusel muffins, because they are so pretty.

Something I expressed to the minister last night is my concern about ICE raids at churches.

Something I never thought I'd hear myself say.

I suggested having someone hang around the lobby until the service starts and then lock the doors, with said person hanging around the lobby to let late-comers inside.

And I am finished. I can spend the next 2.5 hours before I begin thinking about dinner for me and the kitties resting my weary bones. I estimated a finish around 10:00, so I'm nearly 90 minutes off.

I can't put anything back in the bathroom before the floor is dry, so that has to wait. I'm going to put the vacuum away and lie down for a time. I'm sure the cats are happy I've finished destroying their Sunday schedule.

Definitely. I have sometimes typed "donut", but I most often use "doughnut" out of respect for what's right.

Well, the skies are getting brighter, so I guess we're heading into hellishly warm days. I hope the humidity stays low.
