Good morning everyone,
Man was it hot here yesterday, it was 75 when I came to work this morning. Humidity is high as well, making the heat even worse.
John and I ran some errands yesterday after I got off work, and it was hot getting in and out of the car. We went to Sam's to get some bird seed, to Babies R Us to get a gift card and them to the Hallmark shop to pick Jim's birthday card and a baby shower card. We always give the children money for their birthday's.
Tonight will be leftovers, I want to get them out of the refrig. We are taking Jim and Christina out to dinner at Outback tomorrow night and we will be at the beach on Friday, so I wanted to get all the leftovers out of the refirg. What is not eaten tonight will be thrown out.
Well let me get back to work, waving to all have a great day,
Jan
Happy first day of summer!
It's summer alll right,nice and hot.Going to be in the 90s all week.Think our rain is over for a while.

I would like to shoot my niece and her husband.They are feuding with my nephew and his familyand took them off her FB page.My nephews wife was hoping I wasn't upset with them about the whole thing.I didn't even know that it had gotten that bad until she told me.My dear niece has to much time on her hands and needs to get a job.
Hoping for a better day today.

Good morning June friends.............70 here now, to be another scorcher, 98 this afternoon; hoping the humidity stays down again today.
Computer is being difficult this AM; power blinked off yesterday afternoon and of course it shut off. Turned it on a little while ago and had a hard time getting anything to open once it came up.
I'll be dropping the girls at gym & VB camp, then off to work. Need to get busy after I get home, didn't get as much done as I wanted to yesterday and the girls have a ballgame tonight. Not too thrilled about them playing in this heat, but will have plenty of drinks & keep a close eye on them. Putting some western style ribs in the crockpot before I leave, but not sure yet what we'll have with them.
To all the ladies with these hot temps, take care & keep cool! Wishing everyone a great day!
Good Morning Ladies,
HAPPY FIRST DAY OF SUMMER! Boy is it going to feel like it, with temps in the 90's but feeling like 100! We're skipping our treadmill today but are getting ready to take our walk. This morning, I also have a hairdressers appt to get my hair cut and colored. After my appt, we're going to Dunkin Donuts, then to the grocery store. Supper for tonight will be breakfast.
Last night, we went to our favorite car cruise. It was cool and cloudy most of the day, and I wasen't in the best mood, but by the time we were leaving I felt much better, and we actually had a very good time. The only thing that happened was one of our chairs broke. They came from LL Bean with a lifetime warranty, so this morning, Frank already called about returning them and we bought a better chair, which we should have by next week.
OK< thats it for now. We want to get our walk in before it gets any hotter. Hope everyone has a great day!
HUGS!Denise
Good Morning Junies!!
Happy 1st Day of Summer!!! Yesterday was really hot and humid, had the a/c running all day, and got alot of putting away done from our trip. Just need to was the blankets we took and I think I'm done. The boys still need to clean their paintball gear, then all is totally done.
Taking Noah to weight lifting this morning, then going for a walk. Would like to go earlier, but he goes at 9, so will work around his schedule. Have to pick up a few groceries also, poor DH has nothing to take in his lunch :)
We started mowing last night, grass was a little too wet, plus it is quite long being we were gone last week. Will finish that up today, easy though, just jump on the rider, I did all the push mowing and trimming last night.
Mouth is feeling fine now after the root canal, just can't wait for this all to be finished. Jill, I should get my braces off in August sometime. My next appt is Aug 6th, so after that date. I was hoping for sooner, but the ortho wants them on long enough to keep everything from not moving. Have to trust what they say, at least they aren't getting tightened anymore, so no pain.
All you in the excessive heat please stay cool and hydrated, maybe go for a nice cool swim. Enjoy your day,
Jolene
Happy Summer to al of you,
Wow everyone has some hot weather today. It's already 76 degrees here going up to 97-98, and to 100 tomorrow. needless to say my hair is not happy.
Tonight for supper we are having just sandwiches, much to hot to cook, we have a/c only in the bedrooms. So the pool is an option tonight.
Just say some prayers for me ladies, we are still having Mom issues.
Gotta rum try to keep cool, and have a safe and blessed day!!

Good Morning Ladies! Happy 1st day of summer. Took Joey to baseball camp this morning at 7:45, and was 75 out already. Stopped at the mini market and got him Gatorade sports bottles for his game tonight. I 'm not too happy having him play in the heat. It is to be in the high 90's. We were going to go to the pool, but will wait until tomorrow, I'm thinking, camp, being out in the heat, he'll drop playing tonight. So we'll stay in the cool.
Need to run to Walmart for a tube for his bike, he pinched it last night and the tire went flat, will also pick up somethings needed. Meatball subs and a salad for supper, something quick and easy and doens't heat up the kitchen. Hope everyone has a great day!
Janice, prayers going out to you!
Hugs,
Theresa
Happy Wednesday! Happy First Day of Summer!
Sounds like most of us are in this hot spell, they say it will cool a little tomorrow.
Already did a couple loads of towels, have bedding yet to do.
I am supposed to get Rowen this 'saft. They both work 2nd shift today.
Need to run Sam in to town for Viper and BehindTheWheel , I'll stop at Aldi's for a few things on the way back home.
Supper is going to be brats and hot dogs on the grill. Will make a fruit salad to go with.
Enjoy your day! hugs............
I am back, this is the recipe that I made up myself and we had it for dinner last night.
In a crock pot(I used my small one) I put 5 boneless skinless chicken thighs. I then poured out the chicken a bottle of Krafts Italian Roasted Red pepper dressing. On top of that I added one sliced Vidalia onion, one green bell pepper and a 4oz jar of sliced mushrooms. It cooked on lo for about 7 hours. I thickened the juice with a little corn starch and served it over white rice. John went crazy over it. I will definitely make it again.
I plan on making it at the beach when we are there the week of the 4th of July. Of course the recipe will probably will be tripled and I will us my big crock pot. My kitchen at the beach house has everything that my kitchen here at home has. I love to cook, so both kitchens are well stocked.
Having trouble getting on this morning. Board is kind of slow. Slept in this morning.
Talked work into letting me have a vacation day today since they were overstaffed and I need to get stuff done before this trip and I also needed a me day after that rought end to the day the other day and I had to run errands and stuff all day yesterday so didn't get much rest. Going to try to get the stuff I am going to take organized mostly while Biscuit is outside and try not to let him see the suitcases or he will be very mopey for the next couple days. That way I can see what all will fit where and see if I need any last minute things because Friday I have that mandatory.
Gonna have to clean some leftovers out of the frig so that there will just a few things. Thinking I might go out Friday not, but not sure. Might just eat leftovers.
Our pastor is doing much, much better. Almost was acting normal. He did say I would come back tanned and with a grass skirt (LOL). That is a very bad picture and I seriously doubt that I will be tanned. More likely sunburned. He said that whole island is only about 9 miles by 11 miles. Hard to picture. His son was stationed there for years so they got to go a couple times. The week before that they had thought he either had spinal meningitis, a bad brain bleed, or a brain tumor from the symptoms he was having, so he was put through the MRI, CT, lumbar puncture routine and they didn't really find a cause for it.
Sounds like the whole eastern half of the country almost is under these high heat and humidity conditions. Please try to stay cool if you can. I know that is just miserable. It is worse than our 111 plus temps here and it is still dry here until next month, so I am probably not as miserable as you all are. Please get plenty of water and look out for heat exhaustion/heat stroke symptoms. The post office would always put us through the whole battery of information about that because of the poor carriers having to be out in the heat for 6 months out of the year.
Jan, that recipe sounds good. Added it to my crockpot stash.
Got a quick errand or two to run. Gotta look at my machaca recipe and see if I am going to make the crockpot version or the stovetop version. I cheated and bought the shredded beef already cooked at Costco and threw it in the freezer awhile back. Might scrap a few recipes and read or crochet a bit too, and of course will swim later on. Will try to straighten up my room a little bit and do a load or two of laundry. Might wait on the laundry till Friday so it will be all done before I go. I will have to leave really early Saturday morning, so might not be able to post and not sure I am going to take my laptop with me so might not be able to post.
Myrtle, sorry work has been such a zoo.
Jolene, glad you aren't having to have braces tightened any more.
Patti, nice you will get see Rowen today. He is such a little cutie.
Waving hi to Margie, Lisa, Deb, Janice, Theresa, Denise, and anybody else I may have missed.

Sounds like a lot of you are having a heat wave! Please be careful & stay out of the sun.
89° Today for us & will get lower by the weekend My dd will be coming for a visit again this weekend & stay a little longer Hoping to take her shopping & buy her a couple of things for her & the baby.
Ds made it home safe yesterday.I'm sure he won't want to ride his bike that far again!! He has today off & he said he was going to sleep most of the day! lol
My gf called last night & invited me to go to this craft show with a couple of other friends on Thursday. It should be fun but a very long day! I need to cancel my pt. appt. for that day.I hope I can change it for Friday.
Tonight for dinner think we will have bbq chicken & grilled veggies.
Well I need to get moving.....
Have a Very Blessed Day Everyone
Happy Summer June friends!!
YAY SUMMER, my fav season. Let's slow down the time, summer always goes so fast! Reading about the heatwave many of you have, send some heat my way! We've had a lot of heat already, but a little cooler this week, temps in 70s, although I'm not complaining, I wish it was 70's year round. Can't handle heat like I used to.
Working on bedding laundry today, and need to run out to buy paint and dirt to transplant my cucumbers into a larger container. Might go to my great-niece's soccer game tonight, last time she's playing in city this season. Their home field is out of town, but they play city teams, so I try to go when they're close by.
Youngest DD is still doing her practicum at the hospital, she's not enjoying this 3-week session too much, she decided to take a day off today, not too sure about her decision, but maybe she can handle the last half of it if she takes a break. She's tired all the time, works at the hospital 8 hours a day M-F for her training, then to her regular job 2-3 evenings a week, and also weekends. Not much down time for her. But she's done her practicum at the end of the month. She went to her sister's last night to watch a show and stayed for a sleepover. This afternoon she's meeting with a friend. Always a busy social life when she's not working.
Have a great 1st day of summer GFs!
