You ARE hot, miss k!

Hopefully your air will be fixed in no time. Fingers crossed that it’s not a significant fix.

So I think I’m a weirdo. Actually I’m pretty sure I am… I really don’t like air-conditioning very much.

Hear me out, before hating and throwing things at me. First, I don’t mind the heat. Even humidity is OK by me. Reminds me of being a kid.

Second: ac makes me all cold and clammy feeling.

Yes, I know sometimes you really need it. We took a two week vacation last September in Arizona, New Mexico and Texas. It was over 100 every fucking day. Yes, it was nice to be in an air-conditioned place, but I really don’t like the feeling of it long-term. Even in the car we went and put down our windows.

And I know some people MUST have it for medical issues and allergies and stuff. Just stating my opinion.

We are very lucky, that our house has very large eaves. It keeps the house much cooler. Admittedly in the upstairs we have window units, because it becomes unbearable. (It’s a Cape Cod so basically the upstairs is the attic.)

My daughter is on her own so we don’t really go up there and we have an attic exhaust fan that keeps our house cool in the hottest summer days.

They help some
But end up blowing hot air
Home Depot sells a tower that you put ice water in
Works well if you’re close enough to it
Better than nothing

Gubio,tuscany,Ventimiglia, that whole area. Stayed with relatives that have an olive vineyard, and flowers they ship to the USA. In Tuscany we went to a pizzeria/restaurant every night. The husband was Italian and the wife was from Long Branch New Jersey. Every night a fresh bottle of lemon chello on the table...

My late wife had grandparents from Sicily. When she visited she loved the gelato and never found anything close to it here.

Morning Afternoon catch up:

for your dog!! Hope all goes well and gives him some relief. The Surgical Snug is open and animal-friendly.
(New addendum @Wonderer67 )

Was a lovely treat during a trip to Hawaii years ago. Not something I look for on the mainland.

I'm going to look for this brand near me. The Keto one I posted the other day has way more "junk" for ingredients IMO. Think that one was called Rebel - so read the ingredients.

Reminds me of a favorite quote:
Do the best you can until you know better.
Then, when you know better, do better.
~Maya Angelou

(Woman was a National Treasure IMO)

Update on the old dog who came through the surgery with flying colors. 17 teeth were infected and removed. He still has 25 teeth remaining. He is on meds now.

My dad immigrated from Scotland (Perth)
He was proud to see me in my Full Kilt when I came of age to wear it and I still wear it occasionally in his honor
I've only been "home" twice since he passed and I sorely miss it

I hanker after a kilt but my wife won’t have it. You aren’t a Scot is her view although our family name does have a tartan. The best I can do is a pair of tartan trews in Black Watch and wear them with my dinner jacket.

I did buy them without permission but she grudgingly accepts they look good

 

[Greylag]

Down south for my son’s birthday which was great but otherwise a pig of a day. Mobile phone died with everything on it. No access to any of apps so no comms with people who matter to me. Work IT not working either. As I am away from home I don’t have access to my passwords to reload all my apps on the new phone I had to buy.

Then my photos.. best we don’t go there or I will be in tears. Just praying when I can get back into google the automatic backup was enabled.

Aaaaaaagh!

Poor puppers!

That is a lot. Poor thing. Give that dog a hug for me.

Will it get some dentures??

Maybe you can join Slade or the Bay City Rollers!!!

Apparently he has enough in the right location he will be able to eat.

Argh. That is awful. Perhaps they’ll be able to back it up. Fingers is crossed, brother.
