56 right now and a high of 78 is the prediction...

Boy, a shocker about Robin Williams!!

David (MossFlowerWoods), best of luck to you...I hope that position comes through!

Back to Robin Williams...yes, a shocker...but if a person wants to end their life (as long as they take no others with them) is their business. Yes, tough on the survivors, but there's nothing shameful about suicide...my opinion.
There is a guy at work whose 87 year old mother decided (and she is lucid) she didn't want to lose her leg to amputation...knowing without the leg removed, she'd die. She has rapidly progressing gangrene and it's a death watch now. I really feel for the man...tragic. But his mom is going out the way she wants to...

up a bit early, first and only coffee being drunk, five bags near the door, and I'm outta here shortly for the drive to my new home.
The tractor made it there safely and unloaded nicely; Wed I'll pick it all up with the bucket and arrange everything in the barn.
and then back to PA on Thursday. My home has always looked like a botanical gardens at times, due mostly to my late wife's insistence in having flower beds in every
possible place. And even with a sprinkler system, a variety of things have to be hand watered. And the birdfeeders are emptied after only days, the little oinkers.
The bird waterers go dry after two days. the fountain starts sucking air on the third day. I really don't mind if I'm here. I think the hummingbirds talk to me now..., they will let me water two feet away and go about their slurping. of course this time I made up the red sugar mix properly and apparently it meets the desires of the diners because they will sit there for awhile. Not sip, spit out and fly off. Have to be careful refilling the humminbird feeder; a nice yellow bee flew out about two inches from my noise. Probably drunk on the sugar. I filled it to the top and left. With no rain, the dilute syrup will last at least a week.

now is that drunk bee going to get a DUI or a BUI?

I am going to get neither, and must say good morning and get my butt in gear. More specifically, overdrive at 1800 rpm

Drinking first cup of coffee. 61° with cloudy skies this morning. Heading to 73° with a thunderstorm in the afternoon. Metro Detroit is shutdown because of flooded freeways and local roads. Not a good situation. Local authorities are recommending that people stay home. Got just shy of 1" at our place. No flooding problems here. Will have to make it to my mothers side of town tomorrow to check her place out.
David, good luck on job search.
Robin Williams, RIP.
Good Morning All.

67 this morning and still raining high of 77 later rain and thunderstorms throughout the day. Will miss the comedic genius of Robin Williams. Drew safe travels and tractor looks happy in its new home

70 and raining. Nice to get light showers all night. Only up to 81 again today, but will be very humid.

Soon will be off to a 7:30am county meeting.

74 and light rain. Actually hope for more, hate to use the well to fill the pool. This is an odd year (what year is not?), in that it is August and we did not add water to the pool at all this year. Usually, we need a top off or two.

RIP Robin.

And I think my fridge died over night, not cold, appears to be not cooling. I need a break from the money going out the door. As I am sure, we all do.

58F foggy temp reaching low 80's.
Looks like a good soaking on the way starting late PM into Thursday AM... much needed.

In the 50's here and sun is up, but wait there is rain in the forecast later today, tonight and tomorrow.
Good time period to do little or nothing.
