I had such a great time yesterday afternoon, so now I will bore you with the tale.
We had a surprise birthday party for Daughter-Unit. It was really a surprise, since her b-day isn't until the 31st of this month.
She had wanted a tablet of a certain model, and her hubby, mom-in-law and I put our pennies together and got it for her. (It's a significant birthday, so we told her not to expect anything like it next year!)
In order to get to the gift, she had to unwrap the outer box, which had lots and lots of tape, and prettily wrapped in pink tissue paper (she is NOT a pink girl) was one of my old shirts with cloud-like smears of pink and purple and sparkles, which she really doesn't like. The look on her face was priceless!!!!
Then she had to de-tape the smaller box that was hidden under the decoy shirt. Again, the look on her face was priceless!!!
And a good time was had by all.

I have finished with all the stuff that was big enough to be dragged to the curb. I had planned to load the smaller stuff into the garden cart this morning. Unfortunately, it's raining, and it's supposed to be rainy for the rest of the week. Not a lot of rain, which we could use, but the nuisance kind.
I really had hopes of finishing the cleanup today. The next thing is to arrange for the fence repair.

Right now it is 105F. I am hot. I would be cooler but every time that I sit down the cat has to lay touching me. I don't get it she could lay on the cooler floor under the cooling fan, but no she must push up against my hot body with her fur. I tried moving, but she just follows me from room to room. By the way a slice of cucumber in a glass of water is very refreshing.

It actually dropped to 78 degrees F today! That was while the sun was blocked by thick clouds, and between rain showers. I can hear the mold growing...

It's cooled off some, and I'm beginning to feel more human. The temperature in my bedroom was 70°, which was a pleasant change from last week, when it was in the high 70s and low 80s.
We're also getting intermittent rain, which means I can't complete the cleanup.

After an entire month with no rain, and temps soaring above the 100 mark, it has been rainy and cloudy for several days now. Of course, folks being what they are, we are all now complaining about being damp, soggy and needing to mow our lawns again. I guess if we didn't have the weather to bitch about, we'd have to focus on something we could actually control
I got given a lovely great heaping bunch of ripe maters yesterday and whipped up some kick-ass homemade pico. Nothing like using veggies fresh out of the garden. I put enough hot peppers into it to temporarily clear up my poor aching sinuses. Summer colds are rotten, horrid things, and this one seems to have settled down for a long stay. Spending the majority of my time in a smoky bar is not helping matters at all either. hack, hack, snurk...

I saw two young raccoons in my yard. It's the first time I've seen raccoons in the thirteen years I've lived here. Some weeks ago I saw a deer for the first time.
The wildlife appears to be moving to town.

psst...
everyone told us that if we went nonsmoking at our bar, we'd lose business. the opposite happened. we could prove it with good, solid numbers. just saying.
we converted an old store room into a smoking room, with fans that blow outdoors, and that deals with the cold or rain. at night we lock it up so the fan holes and complete lack of insulation in the floor don't drain our heat bill. it's been awesome. pro tip - don't do "textured" walls in there, though - cleaning the smoke scum off those is a bloody nightmare.
consider it. I don't remember the actual numbers for the impact to our business, but it was in the range of a 20% annual increase in net profit. I'm not kidding.

Move your bar to California where it's illegal to smoke in bars! If you were local, I would consider it my Christian duty to help keep you in business.

A friend who owns a winebar found the ban on smoking in bars very helpful when she decided to quit. There are reasons why California has one of the lowest smoking rates in the country. As a non-smoker, I very much appreciate being able to pollute my liver with bothering my lungs. But I realize mileage varies.

No smoking anywhere in public in the whole country here! I think the only places you can smoke are private houses [but not ours!] and private cars [again not ours] - not universally enforced as some people still smoke on the street but it is the law.

It's a shame to get all dressed up and put on the war paint for a night on the town, then to have to undress & get another shower and wash the smoke from your hair after you come home. Much rather go out, have fun, come home, have fun, sleep.
I think we've a bar downtown advertising itself as smoke-free.

Yes, if we go to the Indian Casino for dinner you have to walk though the smoke filled casino to get to the closed off dinning area Mr Image and I have been know to strip in the garage before going in the house to shower. Yes, we do have an attached garage.

I just want it on the record that tomorrow will be my first full 24 hours off from work since May 23rd. and possibly my last until September. I'm going camping and hiking the K'sugi Ridge Trail and no one is going to stop me. except perhaps the weather. then, perhaps just a long drive?
either way, I'm leaving my phone at home.

We are just back from the weekend. Rugasaw started something with our trip to Red Earth Festival for the ship meet. We are just back from the Taos Pow Wow. It was smaller, but still spectacular.
And we spent the night at the Mable Dodge Lujan House, now a bed-and-breakfast. Again, a very special experience, including the bathroom. We had a room on the second floor with its own porch and the glass bathroom with windows painted by D. H. Lawrence.

Here's the thing: I really want to suggest this as a meet, but given how squeamish the NoCal Anti-Fun brigade seems to be when faced with the relatively harmless thought of powder being tossed at them-- translation: they keep wimping out on Holi-- I am pretty sure this will just provoke psychological shock.
I feel so alone in the world.

I feel for ya. As for new passwords may I recommend a password manager? There is free open source KeePass or payware Roboform or the one I use StickyPassword. There is no way on earth I'd remember all my passwords - especially now that I am older. I export a back up file of all passwords just in case of a crash.

Part of what makes BBQ and similar hand-eaten food so good is the finger-licking. Must not have been very good if you simply wipe all the luscious juices and sauces off on a <*shudder*> napkin. Even better if the meal surpasses that finger-licking stage to rank as "knuckle-sucking good".
I wore my Kelly pants today -- Army green, various pockets, suitable for hiking or rafting or whatever -- I associate them with Kelly 'cause we once discussed such perfect pants at a Santa Fe Meet a few years ago.
Wearing them, to help rip up some flooring @ the church building today, and having them fit comfortably and threaten to fall off without a belt, rather than making me feel like a 3-lb sausage in a 2-lb casing, was a Good Thing.

can you say "slow news week"? turns out, our mayor (a cat. long story) is big news all over the world. my friend in Sydney (from here) woke up to see Stubby on the morning news down there.
if anyone wants an autographed photo or something, just let me know. he climbs on my bar and gets shots of cream to have a toast with the regulars. My favorite Stubby moment this summer: I see two 'bagos stopped in the middle of main street and go check to see what's blocking traffic - it's Stubby giving his personal bits a good clean right in the middle of the intersection. love that boy.
