Pretty sure it's Tuesday

Good mawnin’, Hack, Rick, Perry, Vinnie, and all of TRT!

Thanks for the coffee, Hack. Yummy! And ignorant muffin sounds perfect for your day and ours. I’ll add nanners and tangerines because they’re easy to eat. Hope your day doesn’t have any unpleasant surprises. Watch out for that wind!

Rick, I can’t imagine using asbestos for anything. But then, that’s the difference in the times.

Vinnie - How much longer before the fry become adults? Is that like watching paint dry?

Started out at 48 this morning and going up to 80. Going to Orlando next Thursday to see a new production of my brother’s opera Lizbeth. It’s about Lizzie Borden. I’ll post more info on that later. Bobbi and her husband and I are going to fly down to Orlando, so I have lots to do to get ready for that. It will be a family event for us. Besides my composer brother and his wife, their two children and my brother and his wife from Oklahoma also coming. We are also very excited about this opportunity. I have no idea how Orlando Opera found out about Lizbeth.

Lots of love and hugs and peace to everyone!

Morning all,
Cool on the trip/outing/vacation Cath 👍🏼.

Well, phone guy was here and eventually found the culprit with landline static etc ( worserer when it rains) , a old splice underground, he said it was split open ( mebbe a old lightning strike 🤷🏻‍♂️) and moisture gets in when da ground is wet. My own prediction was spot on, had mentioned there was a splice in the ground along with a few wire/spares swaps over the years. Sure enuf,, it was da splice.

Thought I would hold out from firing up the house A/C for a few more days, last night changed that plan. Was around 10 pm when that a thought bubble happened, and of course the outside unit did not come one after its winter snooze. Too dark to be rootin around the outside with a flashlight, so decided at least I would go in the attic and uncover the whole house fan. That went well, and no feet or body parts came thru the ceiling, I’ll call that a win, heheh. Scoped out the A/C situation, cleaned/exercised the relay, tried it and it worked 🤷🏻‍♂️. Musta just need a lil love and a love tap.

Did a lil outside cleanup while I was out ,,, next is killing time until I meet the Doxie rescue rep to pick up my new fosters, Herbie and Stewy . Informed the resident dawgs that newbs will be here soon and to welomce their new foster brudders( and that a few of THEM were fosters here at one time).

On to the day

Hope everyone has a great one!

Afternoon all,

Back from picking up new fosters Herbie and Stewy,, meet n greet with the pack here went great . When King the GSD met them, the lil older dude Stewy was a bit “oh oh big dawg!”, but he got over it.
Super friendly ( currently lodged on my lap ( barely sat down before they were leaping into my recliner) and don’t see them being nothing but super cool meeting future potential adopters. They showed no “new guy/new place” apprehension other than checking out the new to them stuff. Sometimes you
worry that newly adopted dogs don’t adapt to a new forever home ,,, don’t see that being a problem with these two .

To be nice, I just allowed the new fellas on my lap , the regulars are not pleased, haha.
And imagine later tonight instead of the usual 2 or 3 doxies and middle dog Scruffy on my lap , it’ll be two more somehow wedged up here somehow.

A quick 'dinner break' check in before I commence that chore thing.


You can't show wind, but if you could it would look like this ONLY WINDIER!
DAY 5 of GALE FORCE+ WINDS.......steady 30, with constant SUSTAINED GUSTS over 40 and commonly to 50+ mph.

Opted NOT to launch that wooden boat today....would have been an unnecessary risk.....tomorrow the winds begin to diminish..... 20-30mph.

Got some gun shop time this evening, so shall re-chat latter.
