Dan, thanks for posting the pictures! Aedan is a very fine looking little boy! I know you and Misty are
very proud of him.
Here's you pizza, as ordered! Enjoy.
Q,
For best TV reception make sure your TV is on to the show/channel you want to watch and then get busy doing something important. Picture and sound will come in crystal clear. Attempt to relax and you'll get snow (on the screen at least). That's how it goes here sometimes...
Back with baby pictures as promised.

It's amazing to see him now versus a year ago.
I was going to put some more grass seed and sod down to finish off the revamp of the back yard...but the severe thunderstorms we've had put the kibosh on that. I guess I'll have to wait till tomorrow. Pepperoni and Sausage will be my 'request' and I'll take a cold Mt. Dew to wash it down.
Back to prepping for my upcoming field trips later this week.

....Our Saturday is warmer than we thought it was to be......High 80's and still some humidity. Glad we didn't open up the windows this morning as the weather people were telling us {last evening}, we'd have much lower humidity today. Bright sunshine too, so it's still rather warm out there.
But almost warmer than that, is the project I've been on today, to satisfy our Cable Co.
By September we're told we must install this {supplied}, equipment or we'll not receive TV on any of our TV's....
That has been really surprising to me. Our units are both digital flat screen units, and now we will {I just did}, install a digital receiver on the family room unit, and what they ID as a DTA for the bedroom unit.
Have to wait 20 min. or so yet to do any checking out of the operation.....They are both playing now as I type. {Will take that long for full activation}.....
I do not understand why we will be needing these added "boxes" in series with our already digital TV's.....My idea is....this is going to make "on demand".....movies, and whatever else available so they can update their cash inflow. The new equipment did not cost us anything....and it remains the property of the cable co.
But it's the mess screwing around intigrating this stuff into our system that erks me.....So that's been my project for today. More connections.....coax...several new boxes....Had to purchase a new surge protecter / power strip to get all this accomplished in the bedroom....
They indicate more channels on the family room unit.....and more clear pic. and clearier audio....Thought HD already did that......?? One thing is welcome, we're to receive 45 channels of "music".....If that comes out ok, maybe I could drop my XM premium coming thru our stereo system.....Who knows, guess we'll find out.
blhanelfried stuff is my downfall. I've been doing my best to stay away from it all lately, and am now about 35 pounds below my peak from two months ago.

Good Morning everyone. Currently 82 and sunny with some high cloudiness here in Alamo City. Expected high today is 89. Looks like we'll be in a drier period for this upcoming week. We need a respite from the rain. Especially down in the valley/border areas...they have been hit hard with flooding.
Its also affected UP operations down to the border areas as well (Laredo, Eagle Pass, Del Rio).
Enjoy your Saturday!
cherokee womanLarry, I too have to watch fried foods right now, and two of my favorite meals are off limits right now, due to my high cholesterol levels: beef liver and chicken liver.
Bllleeechhh! I'd have no problem staying away from them, but the other fried stuff is my downfall. I've been doing my best to stay away from it all lately, and am now about 35 pounds below my peak from two months ago. No more beer belly... just need to get rid of the double chin.

Morning from WI. Sunny & 72 with not much humidity (for a change) so it's nice. Off to start what may be the long process of changing careers. Back with maybe a trip report, pics of Aedan (I promise!), and for some pizza later.
I'm looking forward to our Friday Euchre games tonight. We missed a couple of weeks because of softball games..... I saw this field the other day. Is this crop designed for human consumption?
Busy day today.Cw thanks for supper.On the way home Matt and I saw a decent "mookie" on a westbound coal train.This weekend will be drying out but not as humid as it has been.Going to help Matt with the layout and turn on the ballgame.
stay safe

Battening down the hatches and making sure the storm drainage is clear - looks like we're gonna get wet. We have a flash flood watch - several warnings have been issued around the state.
That after .4 inches about 6 this morning. I'm not complaining, though, we've been pretty dry of late.
I'm trying to cut down on my fried foods, so I'll have to go with the salmon patty, with slaw and some cornbread on the side.
That apple cobbler sounds good, though.

Well, I did make it back in a little bit earler than I have been lately. Here is our menu for the rest of the day:
FISH: catfish, haddock, halibut, flounder, jumbo butterfly shrimp, talapia, salmon patties
SIDE DISHES: baked beans, corn on the cob, cornbread, fries, hush puppies, cole slaw, breaded deep fried mushrooms
DESSERTS: chocolate cake w/white icing, yellow cake w/chocolate icing, and the following cobblers: apple, blueberry, cherry, peach and strawberry. There are also a couple of pies: rhubard and pecan. All desserts can be accompanied with ice cream.
We did get some more rain this morning, around 8 a.m. Everyone have a good afternoon, and take care.
J.................
Q:
Overcast but bright here this morning.....Somewhat cooler too. Some rain passed thru various areas yesterday afternoon / evening, and cooled it down a bit. Here: .4" But windows still closed, because it's probably still good and humid, and it's warming up some.....Sunshine back tomorrow, if not sooner.
{Jen}, just a "trace" in my truck......
Good morning. 71 and thunder in Carolina this morning, with a relative humidity of 88%. Later could be miserable! The boffins are calling for this type of weather off anf on through Saturday.
Everyone take care
I had to leave quickly a while back. Lightning and several other things happened all at once. Looks to be an interesting day.
Everyone stay safe

Good Friday morning, all. It's not too bad here in Louisville this morning. Our temp if somewhere between 73 and 75 degrees, and our projected high for today is 83. Have no idea whether we ever got any rain last night or not. I didn't know anything, after I laid my head on the pillow last night, until 5 this morning.
Coffee, juices and other morning beverages are fresh and ready to go. On the warming/serving station this morning: bagels, bear claws, turkey bacon, sausage, eggs, biscuits, gravy, cantaloupe and watermelon chunks, kiwi, papaya.
You all enjoy your morning, keep safe, and keep as cool as possible.
Mookie Q - drive truck out onto driveway. Open all windows and sun roof. Hide in garage and pretend to be asleep. Do this in about 3 days. Wear life preserver just in case.

Uh oh.......Believe I bettter stick with my system......Anyway...It's now 8:55, and all's well.....Everything is nice and dry. Both vehicles have sun roofs and believe this is the first time I was on the ragged edge of messing up.
Hot? I guess it's hot! Fortunately, my crew today decided I'd to the PA work while they did the railroad work (sometimes it's good to be the conductor!).
Still - 3 H's in spades. Whew! Good think our main car has decent air conditioning. Glad I wasn't stuck in the cab of the F unit...
I'll have something cool for supper...
Afternoon, all. It's been really hot here, again. Our high today was 96, and the heat index ranged from 100 to 102. We heard thunder earlier, but in our neighborhood, haven't seen any rain, not even a sprinkle. In the eastern part of the city/county, they have gotten downpours. Maybe we 'll get at least a little bit later on tonight, or tomorrow.

.....This has been another hot one.....Stopped at our local Family Restaurant {near the east / west CSX main tracks, for lunch today. Sunshine and very hot as we went in. In parking my Xtreme S-10 truck, I left the side windows down a half inch or so, and cracked the sun roof, not opened back, just up a small amount in the rear.....Yep...! A fast moving quick rain / wind blast came thru....{and I really forgot about opening the sunroof a bit}, well, need not explain....
Truck is now in the garage with doors and side windows open....and of course the sunroof fully open.....Could be worse, but we did get some water.....Since 2 pm, it also has a big pedestal fan blowing in one side to hurry the drying.....
Believe we'll survive ok, without really any real damage, but I would have hurried out {in the rain}, to close the open units, but it had slipped my thoughts....My bad. Perhaps I'll be even more cautious next time....Thought I was up to this point, but failed this time.
It will dry. And to top it off.....we need rain here.....and when we returned home and got into our addition, the streets were just about dry. The restaurant is about 4 mi. east of us. But we did received some {for the yard}, a bit later this afternoon, and it was just fertlized this morning.....
Good afternoon. It's already 93 in Carolina, supposed to push 100 later. The guess is for cooler temps this weekend along with thunderstorms. We'll see,
The city came out this morning and supposedly checked the water meter to see why they showed such a tremendous water usage. I am anxious to see what they found.
Everyone take care and stay cool and safe
wow.better duck and cover.some relief from the triple H's is coming this afternoon thankfully.Cw thanks for supper tonight.it's friday.
