Tuesday is our Monday. Anybody have a time-pausing machine I can borrow? I need an extra day of rest before DH's workweek starts.

Cool! Thanks!

Now watch. The rest of the world won't get the memo and DH's boss will think he's a no show.

Morning y'all.

When DH's alarm went off this morning, my first thought was "Why the hell did he set an alarm on a Saturday?!" Then I thought, "Wait, it must be Friday." (DH works most Fridays. I do not, at the moment.) Oh how sad I was to learn it was only Tuesday, and my work week had only just begun.

Good morning everyone!

My warped birdfeeder is starting to fall apart.

I guess a trip to the store for a new one is in my future.

I can't let the poor birds starve, after all.wink

Morning, all.

The weather is cool this morning. July and cool do not go together, IMHO. I now have real shoes on instead of my sandals. Brr.

DD is gone for the day. I have the cucumbers picked. Beans will get picked tomorrow.

I need to do a quick vacuum job. I hate to vacuum.

FWM, hope you find a good bird feeder that will not warp.

I want one of those time machines. smile

Another muggy day here.

Work day. Bills did not get paid last week and are due today. Time to break out the credit card and pay them that way. No late fees. Bossman will not be happy. Oh well. **** happens when you don't have money in the account. We are really slow and between my salary and his car payment, things are very tight. Just a matter of time. It does keep him somewhat occupied.

Will also try to get some school work done too.

Stay safe and cool out there.

My smoke detector started chirping in the middle of the night. It wasn't low battery because I took all the batteries out years ago. I pressed the reset button & all the alarms in the house started screeching. It stopped after a minute & no more chirping but also no more sleeping for a few hours. I'm beat now.

Hope ya'll are enjoying your day.

Anyone have a quick cure for laryngitis? DH woke up with it and needs his voice for work.

Gargle with salt water. It helps. Cough drops. We swear by that Chloraseptic spray.

I'll have him try the salt water after breakfast. We don't have any of that spray. Might have to get some.

Well played, Lexxy!

Laryngitis is inflammation of the vocal cords.

Gently gargle with warm salt water. Take a couple advil. Don't talk unless you have too. And don't whisper. That does more damage.

Caitlyn deals with it often. That is what the ENT told her to do.

 They are hard wired into the electric.  The batteries are just backup for when the electric goes off.  When they get low they chirp so I just took them out so I wouldn't be annoyed every time a battery went low.  The smoke detectors are fully operational.

 Until the house gets struck by lightning, knocking out your power, which could also start the fire.

 I'm pretty sure I'd know if the house got hit by lightening even if I was asleep.

My friend was telling me yesterday that the cottage two down from theirs at the lake got hit by lightening Saturday night & it woke them up.  The cottage thankfully did not catch fire but they had sparks coming out of the outlets.

I'm thinking that if her house gets struck by lightening, then she's most likely awake and will know that her house is on fire...

It's raining. Again. It's our typical pattern this time of year.

We took the batteries out of ours too. They would go off at the strangest times.

It's actually very rare for everyone in our house to be asleep at the same time now. So someone is always aware of what's going on.

LOL!

The salt water worked, btw. He's working now. DS and I are watching Home Alone 2. DS is concentrating super hard on the screen, which usually means he's gearing up for a nap.

 Yep, I was literally on the verge of tears today with a ton of hot deadlines.  Someone answered a question for me and all just clicked!  It is an intense analytical job, and I knew that and wanted it.  I will be great at it after about 6 months.

 I have a simple mantra I repeated to all my new hires.

Learn to do it right, learn to do it well, learn to do it fast.

You got two out of three down!
