Have a fantastic day everyone! cheesy

MORNING!

Another hot and humid day here, too. We MIGHT get some severe storms this afternoon, but who knows. We're going to my grandmom's today and my uncle is there visiting. Jude loves going there so it should be fun! We are supposed to hear back about the house we put an offer on today.. eek!
 
Good Morning, my fellow downhill-slope-to-the-weekend Friends!

Yes, the "hump" has been passed and Weekend Eve is tomorrow.
And the count? (Glad you asked, even if you didn't.)
Days to the Season: 170
Days to Christmas Day: 212
Wow! Look how close we are to single digits to the 200-day Christmas Window.
Hard to believe it's not even Summer yet are we are already nearly to the point where both of our counts will be in the 100's!

Sunny and calm here currently but the rain is supposed to start up again this afternoon or evening.
It is 71 degrees outside now.

Well, I knew those noises I heard from my heat pump last winter were an ominous sign. The repairman just left and said my motor bearings are shot and the fan blades are dented. (Just how can heat pump blades get dented, anyway?). Looks like I'll be getting a quote for a new unit shortly.
Oh, well. The old one had a good 25-year run!

Have a Thrilling Thursday, Everybody.
 
And while I'm thinking about it, I have another travel alert.

The Crowns will be heading for the coast tomorrow afternoon and a volunteer will be needed for the count Saturday, Sunday and Monday mornings.
Any takers?

Your chance for fame, fortune and fun!
(Well, maybe just fame and fun.....
Um - well - maybe not fame either....
It's probably just best to just shoot for the fun!)

I am available to handle the count down
 
Good morning everyone....

Well just spoke to my mom's physical therapist and said she is doing a great job and are looking to send her home next Thursday.

Our garden is really taken hold. Have several that have already sprouted through the ground at a good pace. Have a few packets of seed that I want to plant this weekend.

Another hot and humid icky day here. Calling for chance of storms tonight. Hoping they hold off until after the kids and I get back from visiting my mom.

Well have a great day!
 
glad to hear your job is going well.

Just checked the weather network and it looks like you are in for a good thunder storm (I love a good thunder storm!)

Thanks, Star!

We received a very good thunderstorm last night. Kim and I went out for supper - due to it being more than 40C in our apartment - and then did some groceries. As soon as we came out, the wind was swirling and the clouds darkening. We hurried home and then saw some lightning as soon as we sat down on the couch. It was impressive! Quite possibly the most fascinating lightning I have ever seen. It was mostly a mixture of heat and chain lightning, however, it was more bright yellow than any other colour!! I love a good thunderstorm, too, but Kim demanded I close the curtains because she was getting scared.
 
Hey COACH.. coffee? come on over.. Brad- brews on... lets prank call everyone in NC,,,

YABBA!
Whew, this is taking longer than I tought! I'm still trying to work my way through Charlotte. How far along are you?

If it's just the condenser fan motor & blade, that's easy, and much cheaper to replace than the entire unit. You might consider a second opinion.

Sorry for sticking my nose in your business! cheesy

LOL, I love to sit on the front porch during thunderstorms, too.
 
Good Thursday morning, my Christmas friends!

The remodel at home is progressing, our pup came through surgery very well, my tomato plants are blooming, and my mom got back safely from her trip to the mountains. Things are good!

I hope you all have a great day! cheesy

I really wanted to go outside on the balcony, but she would have none of that either. Storms are just fascinating.
 
Good morning, everyone!!

The humidity has left for a few days. It's currently 22C without any humidex! Coincidentally, it was about 32C and 98C with humidex at this time yesterday. As expected, our summer forecast is to be warmer and drier than normal. Much better than the excessive rain and cooler weather we had last summer.

Not much going on today. Thanks to everyone who supported my new job. I like it. Today, my boss asked me to have a meeting with him to "pick my brain" for a student conference they are running with the Canadian Navy at Durham College this September. Being a student, he was interested in how to get people to attend on a weekend. It was a good discussion.

Apparently the work I was given yesterday - my first day - is difficult yet very important. Quite the thing to be stuck with on my first day of the job. It will probably take a while to complete, so I should really get at it. Thursday is a busy day with the gym and practice right after work. I probably won't return home until 10 PM - and then it will be bed time. Now, I guess I have more of a reason to look forward to the weekend since I am working full time.

212 days until Christmas?! Wow!! Only four more days until June and then we are even closer to the halfway point! Have a great Thursday, everyone!!!
