Grandpa will do the honors. I expect I'll see him after dark. He'll be playing Roblox for a few hours.

You just do everything you can at 5 a.m., Jane. If you have to go out, cars have AC.

Sometimes I don't fall asleep until 4:00am.

DIL texted and asked if we can pick up Grandson at school. It's too hot out for her to walk a half mile to the school, then half a mile back home.

It seems like such a short walk, yet with the heat it was smart of her to call you.

I looked up Roblox. It looks like a great game to do with kids.

Yay, Keith also got Wordle in two.

We're usually in bed around 8. And I get up around 3:30 or 4.

Is it a dry heat, DR Laura?

singdaw · « **Reply #98 on:** August 06, 2025, 04:10:46 PM »

Fingers crossed that the Mac Mini is delivered. I assume you have to be there to sign for it?

singdaw · « **Reply #99 on:** August 06, 2025, 04:11:15 PM »

Or they put it back on the truck and haul it away?

singdaw · « **Reply #100 on:** August 06, 2025, 04:11:32 PM »

Always so infuriating.

Today, a local start-up delivered a batch of soups: cucumber gazpacho and watermelon gazpacho. Haven't tried either one yet.

singdaw · « **Reply #102 on:** August 06, 2025, 04:13:24 PM »

But all of the others I've had from them have been amazing.

singdaw · « **Reply #103 on:** August 06, 2025, 04:13:38 PM »

Chicken noodle.

singdaw · « **Reply #104 on:** August 06, 2025, 04:13:49 PM »

Regular gazpacho.

singdaw · « **Reply #105 on:** August 06, 2025, 04:14:13 PM »

Lentil stew

singdaw · « **Reply #106 on:** August 06, 2025, 04:14:34 PM »

Tuscan sausage and kale

I hope you like these just as much.

For some reason, though I am curious about why there's so much buzz (some from sources I respect) about THE HUNTING WIVES - after two episodes, we can't seem to get enough interest to resume watching.

Maybe the online synopses will give a clue of what's worthwhile about it.

Regular gazpacho.

Serve it over pasta and you can call it gazpasta.

It is indeed a dry heat.

Checkup at the dermatologist tomorrow, first thing in the a.m.

(9:30 is "first thing in the a.m." for me.)

What a coinkydink (sort of)! I went today to get labs for my dermatologist.

George · « **Reply #113 on:** August 06, 2025, 05:09:03 PM »

However, when I got there, they didn't have the order from the dermatologist! Fortunately, my regular doctor also wanted labs, so it wasn't a totally wasted trip.

George · « **Reply #114 on:** August 06, 2025, 05:10:18 PM »

But the very nice labs people gave me a number to send to my dermatologist for them to fax the order to the labs. I did that, the dermatologist sent the order back to the labs, and very shortly after that, I got the message that very soonly I have to go back for more blood to be drawn (but not quartered).

And THEN, I walked to the post office to (finally) mail a Blu-ray disc to DR Larry!

George · « **Reply #117 on:** August 06, 2025, 05:12:13 PM »

I still need to send a DVD disc to DR Singdaw.

George · « **Reply #118 on:** August 06, 2025, 05:13:17 PM »

It's of the documentary that I got on laserdisc, Titanica.

George · « **Reply #119 on:** August 06, 2025, 05:14:21 PM »

And now that we're so close...
