Got behind on Jeremiah since my oldest son has been here all week from Nashville.
Also behind in my regular daily Bible reading (in Romans).
Will catch up next week after he goes back home.

Spent a lot of time in the late 70s, early 80s talking with R&D engineers who were working on the cell phone technology (it was Dick Tracy like back then). A couple different high tech companies...Nokia in particular I remember was one. Plus a lab at Georgia Tech. They were ALL concerned about the microwaves....not with birds, but with us...humans....as we would have the phone up against our head talking. Was very worried about brain cancer/tumors.
But agree with Bert and BBUK....not enough time I would think. But you never know.
Hey D, if you don't care. Pray for our grandson and granddaughter, they had a go-cart wreck about 45 minutes ago, got them at the hospital, granddaughter head hit the pavement and our grandson has some bad road rash on his hand and arm, Thanks
Just got back from the Karate tournament. It is still going on but my only student is finished with her portion. The tournament started about 0800 and is still on going. there were over 100 competitors in different age ranges and belt ranges. She had about 10 competing in her age and belt range for Katas (forms) women. There were different types of competitions as well for different styles of competition. She took first in Katas (women's) in her age range and then took Grand Champion in Katas involving men's and women's in her belt range (White, yellow, and orange) all considered beginners. She then took first in fighting in her belt range and age for women. Single elimination and she had 4 fights.
Smashed all previous records. $123.06 + $33 = $156.06. Crazy good year.
Earlier:
2016-2017: $95.72
2017-2018: $108.56
2018-2019: $101.83
2019-2020: $73.38

She whumped your arms and legs off WC. Taught her a little too well.
Oh, I hope all your days were good today. May God's anointing fall on you and your families...
Listening to Eva Cassidy tonight. One of the purest and intimate voices IMO. Such a shame that she died in 1996 of bone cancer at the age of 33.
Agree completely. I can't understand how anyone can live with themselves if they are only getting by through the effort of others. I have walked for as much as 2 hours rather than asking for a ride. Asking for help is terribly difficult for me. I fail to understand how people can just casually accept it.I have always been of the adage that if an able-bodied man didn't work, he shouldn't eat. I feel that way still. A man would go hungry rather than to beg. (Yes I can say that with complete certainty.) In this age of the "demented" family, who knows what or where a woman or an "it" falls into that category. I will leave my statement about the man in tact and pause some on the other.... I'd do about anything for a child or an elderly person in need.
I am thankful that I can state my children ate my food growing up through to their adult-hood. Heck my 30 and 37 year old are continuously trying to freeload a free meal and they have no need to do it. (Sometimes they succeed, sometimes they don't...)
We could be brothers. I'm exactly the same way.
Sitting here checking some posts by the D League. Kind of quiet but with the Summer weather there's more to do than sit behind a keyboard or refresh a tablet.
My son went to Eldora Speedway tonight to catch the SRX race (which is live on CBS). I've been kind of down in the back this week, so I decided to stay home in the air condiioning and watch on TV in the La-Z-Boy. He'll have fun.
Been a busy week. He was hoping to take another weeks vacation and stay thru the 4th, but he got a call yesterday that he's having a visitor at his office Tuesday and Wednesday...so he has to go back. Will leave Monday morning. It's been good seeing him. Have spent a lot of time sitting on the porch (beautiful cool weather this week) talking....solving the world's problems.

Just an update, they are ok, no concussion, my grandson has two fingers messed upon his left hand, could have been a lot worse!!!! Thanks for your Prayers!!!!
Good morning from ATX. Currently 78°F and mostly cloudy. Expect 97°F for today's high.
Pup feels better. She no longer messes in the house. Glad she poops outside again. We feed her rice and eggs on vet's orders.
Today I'll cash-out at the credit union. Found so much change over the past 365 days, I began running out of empty containers. Looking at a possible record year (06/26/2020 - 06/25/2021). Stay tuned.
Wishing happiness and health for all our fellow D-League members.
Amazing what one can do on a regular basis. I really like walking and looking for dough while walking. (I never added it up though.) I always seem to find unwanted cash of some sort BUT, while I was in Korea I did so much more walking and I NEVER found as much as a won anywhere over three years that I remember. (And I was looking, I always look for dough. Just a habit.)
In case you want to delete or alter later, I won't quote you. Good luck with your quandary.
Good Sunday Morning
Read through Chapter 26 of Jeremiah.
I am back in the house after spending some quality time with my cousins who live out of state. Both have husbands who work in Ohio and they vacation every year South of us in Anna Maria Island. One of my cousins husband is a police officer in Columbus, Ohio and he has some stories to tell. He has a small farm a long way South of Columbus and no way he lives near that city. His kids are too precious to be raised in Columbus. My other cousin who met us down there lives in Logan, Ohio which is a ways from Columbus also. She is a small town girl
We are settling into our summer pattern with sunshine until mid afternoon, then the clouds roll in to give us a nice thunderstorm with heavy rains for 30 minutes and then it clears back up and the sun comes back out. Last night gave us some brilliant colors in the sky which is common after a mid afternoon thunderstorm. Our current temperature is 74° and it will reach 87°. Winds are from the East at 9 mph and the UV Index will hit 10 of 10.
Trust all have a nice Sunday

Good morning from ATX. Currently 77°F and cloudy. Rain coming later tonight or early tomorrow. Today's high could reach 92°F. We'll take it.
Pup seems constipated now. We go from one extreme to another.
Paypal increasing fees. No biggie as I rarely take advantage of the instant services.
Usual routine today. First a walk followed by straightening up around here. Grocery shopping around noon. Zaxby's later.
Wishing happiness and health for all our fellow D-League members.

Facebook is a wonderful idea and platform but it is a crying shame the people who run it are so political. Because of this I have many friends and relatives who will not go on it. It is a wonderful way to keep in touch with loved ones and friends if not for the "fact checkers" and political slants. They even fact check jokes.Morning folks. It is 78.3°F on our way to 88.
The wedding is at 2pm and I have not come up with a good reason to skip it. Dang.
The concept that the microwaves are killing the birds in certain areas is intriguing; however, I doubt it. BBUK nailed it. Here is an article backing him up:
No, 5G Radio Waves Do Not Kill Birds
Here's the truth behind a Facebook falsehood spreading across the internet.www.audubon.org
Facebook is wonderful but you must be very, very skeptical.
I use Paypal a lot due to my selling on Ebay. So now I will have to adjust my selling prices to accommodate this increase. Another example of inflation.Good morning from ATX. Currently 77°F and cloudy. Rain coming later tonight or early tomorrow. Today's high could reach 92°F. We'll take it.

I am afraid our future will see more and more increase in prices in every aspect of our lives. Groceries are steadily going up as is everything else. That ice cream cake sure looks good.
Keeping track of finds is part of the fun. Honestly, I can't believe how wasteful people are these days. Our specific area demographics are an exception. It seems more local folks use cash than credit/debit cards.
Good morning D-League. It's currently 75° and sunny here in Eastern Kentucky. This afternoon will bring scattered clouds and the possibility of a thunderstorm, with a high of 88°.
Everyone stay safe on this Sunday.
Everyone stay safe on this Sunday.
Morning folks. It is 77.7°F and sunny. We are supposed to get to 90° plus the humidity is going up also.
I survived the wedding and got to see some folks that I have not seen in a while.
Good to hear that @cordmaker grandkids are not hurt bad.
You all have a good Sunday.

Sitting by the pool last night we had some beautiful colors as the sun set over the Gulf. We get these about every night in the summer, especially if we have a late afternoon thunderstorm. It is relaxing.
Jan has studied (on her own, not regular schooling) quite a bit. She says pumpkin (not pie filling) can work on both diarrhea and constipation depending on how much you give them. She said if it was her dog, she would give him one table spoon of pumpkin (again not pie filling).Good morning from ATX. Currently 77°F and cloudy. Rain coming later tonight or early tomorrow.

Was going to say this. Worked for most of our dogs over the years
Beautiful!Sitting by the pool last night we had some beautiful colors as the sun set over the Gulf. We get these about every night in the summer, especially if we have a late afternoon thunderstorm. It is relaxing.
I'm leaning towards relocating to FL. Wife is not on board with that
What kind of psycho fact checks jokes? Lol. It's rhetorical (JenP's doppleganger) ...
Considering it started as a gov program (look up lifelog) it's no surprise a possibly good thing was ruined.
It's about 110° in this bath. Should get down to 90° before I drag my itchy ask out of it. Got in a hurry and didn't do what I usually do... Chiggers got me really bad.
God is good, hope He blesses you today and this week, and may whatever fish you're trying to land bring some big friends along to make the quota!

Florida is not for everybody. There are many places you would never catch me living or visiting in Florida. Namely Ft Lauderdale, Miami or Orlando. I prefer a more laid back lifestyle like this front porch and rocking chair

Laid back is what I'm looking for in a home base. We've got a creek and a few acres here, but I'd like a better year round temp and just a couple hours to the ocean at most with less humidity
@BBUK
Sunday is fried chicken day and my wife has agreed to fry me a mess of chicken gizzards. We are going to try to fry them up in an air fryer. We have never done that before but a chicken gizzard is hard to mess up. You just cook them and enjoy. They should turn out like the picture below.
I looked up a recipe and it suggested boiling the gizzards for about a half hour before you air fry them up. Makes them very tender they say. So I will boil them, then roll them in flour with salt and black pepper. A little milk gravy on the side and I have a meal fit for a king.

Your choices then are not moving or divorce.
I'd also avoid Surfside.Florida is not for everybody. There are many places you would never catch me living or visiting in Florida. Namely Ft Lauderdale, Miami or Orlando. I prefer a more laid back lifestyle like this front porch and rocking chair
My kids feed their dogs green bean straight from the can daily. They love them.
Just don't feed them corn. Dogs can't digest corn very well and it gives them diarrhia. I've seen neighbors do it when people let their dogs roam to much. Look at the dog food labels, if it's a cheap food, corn will be high on the list of ingredients. By law, the first 5 ingredients in a dog food must be in order of the quantity in the food. Your dog won't crap as much when fed foods they digest better.
I spent 15 years of my life in Jacksonville, FL. October thru May is wonderful. The rest is hot, humid and full of bugs. Mowing your yard is a labor. I have jumped into the pool with glasses, hat, shorts, shoes et.al. just to keep from having heat stroke. Also we are not going to discuss the "can't see ums". They are really small terrorists that can drive anyone crazy trying to trim the shrubs.
Of course Sawnee Cat is going to protest, but what does a darned drill instructor know. He liked to inflect pain!
I love him, but he was a "drill instructor"! At the least he was smart enough to marry a good Kentucky girl.But Florida, come winter, is good because you can go outside by the pool and enjoy thanksgiving dinner. Winter in Florida is wonderful. Summer in Florida is a labor.
I have lived in Indiana, Kentucky, North Carolina, Texas, Maryland and I have visited 45 of the 50 states. In my book South Central Kentucky has the best climate in the U.S. and Canada. We get some cold, we get some hot and we get some bad weather; however, we get less bad shit than the other places that I have lived and visited. In my life (75 years) I have never lived through a forest fire in Kentucky. I have lived though them in other areas. I spent a year in Texas when I did not see a cloud. I spent two weeks in North Carolina when it was fog.
Bottom line: in 2000 I retired. I could have moved to anywhere in the U.S. I chose Kentucky? Why, other than it being my ancestral home? Taxes are low (total taxes are the 4th lowest in the U.S.). I just came back from a vacation in Tennessee and I was shocked at the 11% sales taxes and it applied on food and everything. Property taxes are low in Kentucky and higher than hell in Texas, Tennessee, Florida, California, et.al.. Kentucky state taxes are 6% but you get all the standard deductions from the federal taxes. In 21 years I have had to pay Kentucky taxes two years. Utilities are some of the lowest in the U.S.
Anyway, this is just my biased opinions, but my opinions are based on facts.
The green bean were based on the vet.
