Remember The Old Song, "Draggin' the Line?" I Was "Mowin' The Yard!"

I always loved that song! "Draggin' The Line!" Good (late) morning! I was up about 7... way too early for me... but as I watched the dogs play outside, I realized I hadn't mowed the grass back there in nearly a month... and the fact that I 'lost track' of our smallest pup in the almost knee-high...

60% & 20/20%...And Another Stupid Joke

Good morning. We will have another day of 98+, but a bit further down the page on the Weather Channel page, it also says, ' there is a possible risk of severe weather today. Wind and hail are possible, but wind is the greatest threat. ' I suspect this is due to the burnout from the first storm to be... Sign in to see full entry.

Should I Buy Another AC Unit? Why Did My Folding Chair Quit?

Good morning. It's gonna be another hot day, with an expected high of 'only' 99. Yesterday, it reached 104, so it might feel cooler... but I doubt it. We are scurrying about, trying to get a few things done before we reach 95. Currently, it is 88, with a light wind. You would think that the grass... Sign in to see full entry.

And It's Hot, Hot, Hot... Plus A Dumb Joke

Good morning. It looks to be another blistering hot day here in the 'armpit' of Florida. I've been trying to get everything that needed to be done, done. Yesterday saw us touch triple digits for an hour before falling back to 'only' 98. Right now, it is 83, but I already know how it will go. I've... Sign in to see full entry.

Good Sunday morning. We are currently at around 80, but the forecast predicts we will reach 98 today, which is why I'm up early working on a story. By noon, it will be too hot to think. As I've explained, the only air conditioner in our house is located in our bedroom, making it easier to sleep at... Sign in to see full entry.

Things That Make Ya Say, Hmmmmmmmm

It's time to renew my subscription, so I attempted to make a payment, but it won't accept it. If I disappear, you'll see why. If I'm unable to process my payment by later tonight, I'll send them a note. Just wanted ya all to know what's happening here. V Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning. It's looking like another summer day in Florida - very hot and extremely humid. I hate to say that you get used to it, but I have. When I'm done here, we'll go out back to sit with the dogs. They love it, and it gives us time to relax and talk about 'stuff.' The trees hang low,... Sign in to see full entry.

An Early Start to Another Hot Day - W/ A Cover Reveal

It's way too early for me to be up and moving, but the newest pup, a stray we found a few days ago, wanted out. Why bother with 'house-breaking' an animal if you aren't going to accommodate them when they do what you've been teaching them? Of course, when you let one out, you can count on letting...

My Medical Visit Details

Good morning. Everything went great at the doctor's office yesterday. In 2016, I had a huge aneurysm (think of a radiator hose that had a bubble on it) repaired during a ten-hour surgery. I was unconscious for eight days and was in the hospital for a total of 29 days. This had been the second... Sign in to see full entry.

Good late morning. I received my new keyboard yesterday, around early afternoon. The old one is now history, and I am thankful to be able to type something without having to shut the caps lock off... for the thirty-second time in one sentence. I had to run to Valdosta this morning to get some blood... Sign in to see full entry.
