thank you Perris.

I thought I would run into Alaskan - have to try again later. I wanted him to know I just got back the results of the colonoscopy - Dr. said everything came back negative.

Crazy happy to hear!!!


Now... go get the spot by your nose looked at.

Great News, DD! Glad everything went well and came back negative. Hopefully your stress level went down considerably.

Our weather for today will be challenging to say the least:

"Today’s heat index values will be between 100-110, with heat indices up to 105 on Sunday. "

I'll be spending the day inside for the most part in the AC....where it's cool.

That is good news!

When do they want to do another test?

Stay under the AC as much as possible!

Welcome to BYC Farmall Happy, so glad you joined the flock. Sourland and I are the oldies on here I believe. But we really aren't old

Speak for yourself. I can not tell a lie - unless it's absolutely necessary.

Good news there, Diva. Must be a relief!

Saw getaclue's post and had to read a ways to realize that a SSD was not some kind of dog. Mea culpa. I am definitely not as tech-savvy as most here.

Monsoon season is trying to work its magic here. What's noticeable is the high humidity. We had a nice shower last night, so the weeds are easy to pull today. I enjoy weeding about as much as I do housework. (bleh) But I realize it's a necessary evil if I am to harvest veggies and not go on an expedition hunt for them. It's a love/hate relationship with the veggie compound. All the varminting this year was really discouraging. BUT things are starting to sprout and grow (again), so in about a month I hope to be a happy camper with the greening out there.

I planted three different kinds of kohlrabi and the Purple Viennese and White Viennese bulbed up and did their proper thing. The third is supposedly a giant bulbing type, but all we've seen is mounds of greenery (which is edible, thankfully.) All that has been harvested lately is lots and lots of greens...and will be for a while.

The chickens are doing great. I'm thinking of branching out and adding some Dampierre to the mix. Something about French breeds appeal to me and I'm a sucker for splashes.

That's about all that's new here. Just trying to stay healthy, which will be easy as our Gov is rescinding our Covid privileges. I feel like being grounded is on the horizon again. We are mandatory masks (even when exercising), no indoor dining, and visitors to our state must quarantine for 14 days and not visit our State parks. Thank goodness for streaming TV!

Has anybody discovered their nap quotient has gone up during this time of Covid?

YAY!!!!

Got to be careful of those high temps. Do chores early, then in the evening when it's cooler. It's best to stay inside with the AC during the hot parts of midday. Be sure to stay well hydrated too.

thanks geta - Dr. sed I have to repeat in 3 yrs. and if that is okay, I can wait 5, she obviously is overlooking how old I am NOW!!
