72 and dry air this morning. Heat wave is over for a few days.
Coffee and custard again this morning.
Going to the Dentist, Dr. Mengele, this morning to get the dentures fitted.
Maybe bacon and eggs tomorrow morning. :D

Mosquitoes got so bad it was just unbearable to go outside. Sprayed with
Cutter yard and garden spray this morning. Just attach to a hose and let em have it.
That stuff works pretty darn well. Die, die, die you blood suckers. :lol:

we awoke to a much cooler 65 degree morning under mostly clear sky, calling for it to reach the low 80's later this afternoon .... 50% chance of scattered thunderstorms from shortly after noon today through noon tomorrow .... breakfast is long gone .... still sipping Folgers from a Henry Mug while watching Fort Apache .. ;)

It’s 61 degrees and that is inside the house. Low 50’s outside. Guess I should have closed the door to the atrium last night.

Got up early this morning, just couldn't get back to sleep. Took the dogs out about 5:30 a.m. and it was already 80°. The little boy was acting sick and didn't want to walk after about 50 yards or so. I wound up carrying him back to the house. He seems to be fine now. I think it was an upset stomach. Anyway after a couple of cups of joe I'm ready to work on a clarinet. First instrument to grace my workshop since May. This Covid thing has really hurt my business. Luckily I've invested well and have enough to fall back on in hard times. I know other's who haven't been so fortunate.

Got back from the Dentist and gums aren't healed enough yet. Aaaaacccckkkkk!

I hear you Jake. We are pretty well off considering everything and are helping the kids with some bills.
Also we hire friends to do work around the place. They won't accept charity, but are more than
willing to work for wages.

We thank God daily for our good fortune. I have to put the credit on Carol. She handles all the
bills and investments.

Yes!! , this Covid thing has had ripple effects on a lot of things, to say the least. My son and DIL are considering a break up. Terrible ramifications on my two grandaughters. Can only intervene so much. Breaks my heart. Don't know what to do.
My own problems seem miniscule as compared to this!
I sure hope for some improvement SOON!!

Tough thing to deal with, Mark. Hope it turns out for the best.
