Since we heat with wood we use a big window air conditioner in the summer. It works very well keeping us cool if we circulate the air around with fans. Not the cheapest way to cool but when it's the only way, you go with it.

Just had a shower and thunder rumble through. Not enough to count but enough to settle the dust.

Those hurting and not feeling well, feel better. Not pleasant to start the day out feeling crappy.

Misty, thanks for the morning smiles. They mean a lot to me. Hope hubby is doing well and you are holding up.

Hi Micro, How are you doing?

Foot pain gone thanks to the miracle of modern drugs. Plus, I kicked my shoes off the minute I got in the house this morning from tending the birds and have gone barefoot all day which helps. Just don't tell my podiatrist.

This afternoon DH and I got a new storm door up on our back deck. We still have the door handle to set but it is up and operational. One of our dogs knows how to hit the door just right to pop it open when she wants in. It would be really funny if we didn't stand the chance of the cats all getting out.

Had a long talk with one of my cousins. She's 10 years older than I am and was just diagnosed with lung cancer. They think they got it early and will get rid of it with radiation. It's always good to talk with her. She saved my life more than once when I was dealing with my mom's violent outbursts with her dementia. Without my cousin there to sweet talk her down from her insanity and into the hospital I don't know what would have happened to me. I don't have any doubt that I would have wound up seriously injured or worse so I feel a special closeness with this cousin. Thank goodness she's a tough old bird. I always said if you have to wade into battle have a pit bull at your side and not a chihuahua. Plus she comes from a big family so it's always an hour of catching up on who is doing what to whom.

We microed some carrots once, very sparkly. Must be there were minute metal particles in the ground where they grew.
