sounds like nice weather Roy.
up part of night, writing a list of Regrets to my older brother about all the things I did not get cleaned up on the farm and thus have left for he and my other brother to clean up. I got a lot done, but events just took over. I was sick for so long, almost a year, they say now a lymphoma of adrenal area, which allegedly is more treatable than straight adrenal cancer which has less attractive cure rate. All I can do is take the chemo and stay positive. I've lived a wonderfully full life, three wives, every new day is an adventure. But gosh get me out of this place.
Family will be working all Sunday to move furniture to new assisted living place all of .8 mile away. Then Monday is move day, we hope. I worry about my brother's back though they will have a local mover help. His wife will come help, so I know everything will be put away neatly, the bed made nicely, etc. It's such a small place the queen bed may need to be pushed against one wall, but who cares, just me there. The big challenge will be setting up my main PC on a little desk, including the speakers that come with it. Pretty sure some cables will get missed, but always have this laptop as backup. Will be nice to have full size keyboard and 27 inch screen to look at, since I watch zero tv. This poor laptop needs a real cleaning, gunked up here and there, pancake syrup, spilled drinks. Mostly the keyboard is a lot harder to use.
Until then I have more days of PT and need to keep building my strength. I do great on walking, not so hot on funny little balance tests like standing on one foot and rolling a ball around with the other foot. Not sure I would have done so hot with some of this even before but clearly tests are made to push one's balance. And then the come with the mind twizzlers and memory tests and those I'm only ok on. Here are five words and I'm going to ask you them again in ten minutes after discussing all this other stuff. I might have some short term memory issues, but also could be my age...
have a great day all. Randy thinking of your family, and appreciate the constant prayers from everyone.

72 and 91% humidity, going to 90. Buppies, how you getting your humidity down?...sending it over here? Ours will stay in the 80s and 90s until Friday.
Did one tank of backpack spraying before the wind got too strong. Found a patch that was bigger than I thought, so need to revisit...making good progress ridding us of a plant that actually is quite attractive and beneficial in many ways...but it is named poison ivy for a reason. I've never had much of a reaction to it, just a few small bumps, but have always been careful around it. I'm concerned about visitors and their/our dogs.
We go to a dermatologist that can look at your back or face and in a split second see something wrong...she has really developed an eye for it. I feel I have that "talent" for spotting a small poison ivy plant mixed in (hiding) with other 3 leaved plants and rarely spray a "good" plant by mistake.
Somebody was talking about how their splitting maul has gained weight over the years...I feel the same about a 4 gallon sprayer.
Made a dump run, refilled the diesel jug and truck gas while in town, and picked up seeds I ordered from the local feed and seed...soybeans, peas, sorghum, sunflowers, buckwheat, and clover. I had to stop in the road in front of the store and block traffic to let a black snake cross the road. When I pulled up to their loading dock, they were all standing there watching it. They had hoped it would get run over. I told them to catch it and put it under the store (100 year wood building sitting on piers) since their cat seems to spend the day sleeping on the tops of seed bags instead of doing its job.

Good morning! It hit 102˚F yesterday before the cool front pass through bringing the temps down to 66˚F this morning. Good morning to cerdarcide at the park before the afternoon temps hit in the 90s.
Great progress Drew. With a defined plan things will move forward now.

Night before last, our power (electricity) went off about 9 p.m. So I was up and down, in and out of the bed, until it came back on at 1 a.m. yesterday morning. Of course my wife's oxygen generator wasn't working, so she had to use an oxygen bottle, and she just can't seem to sleep without a light on, so she had one of the battery powered lamps going. Anyway, I didn't get much sleep, but yesterday morning with a good breeze and no dew on the grass, I mowed, edged, and trimmed the yard, then I helped her with her house cleaning, since she wants me to take her today to spend the night with our younger daughter (the elder of the two will also be there for the day today). So this old man wore out yesterday and just went to bed about 5 p.m. and, except for a couple of bathroom calls, didn't get up until after 4 a.m. this morning.
Yesterday, the temperature here ranged from 80 to 94 degrees. And this morning, it's 58 going for a high of 88. But unfortunately NO rain in the foreseeable future. So by daylight I had the sprinklers running in both the front and back yards.
