- Thread starter Wildcat Droppings
- Start date
Back from the karate tournament and my student did very well. She had to compete against 4 men in forms (her belt range and age group) and 2 women. She was a bit worried because men being stronger and faster normally makes their kata's (forms) look better. They did have one advanced brown belt competing in their division as well, which her division is green/blue belt intermediate. I told her to quit worrying and just focus on what I have taught her and just deal with it. She wound up taking first in forms against all of them. Then, only one of the other women was fighting so she had just one fight which she won 10-2 on points. The other woman wound up with a halfway closed eye. (accidental face shot and not disqualified for the kick). Under belt in many tournaments cannot have face contact. Pictured below is the pre-tournament talk before suiting up and then some of the men she competed with and then her receiving her medal. She got 2 first places. 1 for Kata's and 1 for fighting.

Good morning from ATX. Currently 79°F and cloudy. Today's high expected around 103°F.
+ Just experienced a power surge. Lights remain on, but cable out.
+ Mowed grass yesterday, front and back yards. No weed-eating yet.
+ Cashed-in found, loose change again yesterday. Total = $36.22 for 6 months, from 12/26/22 - 06/24/23. Homeless folks becoming more proactive.
@warrior-cat : looking good.
Wishing all a joyous, peaceful Sunday.

Morning Legionnaires!
Thank you @AustinTXCat.
Relaxing day today other than the morning walk. Couch potato action and watching the Reds at 12:40pm CDT. Hard fought loss last night but, can't win them all. Just happy they are competitive now. Would be nice to take the series against the Braves though.
All, enjoy the day of rest and God Bless.
Good morning folks.
We had a nice graduation party for my son yesterday. And icing on that cake, my wife’s college roommate is on her way back to Atlanta.
Back from a long walk. Beautiful morning. Feels like hot day ahead.
Hope you all have a great day.

Good morning all,
Slept in with the BB. My Darling sang in the choir the first service. Me and the BB and My Darling are heading to the third service shortly. The BB had banana pancakes, I had regular pancakes and am sipping coffee.
I hopefully finished staining our coffee table yesterday. Have to check it out in a minute. That stripping and staining takes time...
Have a blessed day....

So much for couch potato day. My wife just told me that they finally vacated her new office so she could move in. They cleared it up and cleaned it out on Friday. She wants to go in today and move all of her stuff from her old one to the new one so she can get other work done tomorrow. She said she would buy my lunch for helping. It is going to cost her. Heh, heh, heh,
ATXC, I wouldn't have guessed that grass grows in 100 degree weather.Good morning from ATX. Currently 79°F and cloudy. Today's high expected around 103°F.

Oh, yes. Strangely enough, I usually pass on grass mowing this late in the season. Just let it die. Got rain 16-19 June while I was away and Viola!
Yep. Was surprised in the Saudi Desert when it rained for about 2 weeks straight which apparently was the norm for the time of year and grass grew out of the sand. Other than an Oasis, we did not see green (other than Army green) most of the time there.
It is 70.7°F and rainy in Smiths Grove. We have already got .17" since 7:30 am. We are supposed to get to a humid 92°. Yesterday we actually got to 90° according to my gauge.
My daughter and son in law were down Thursday to yesterday afternoon. We got caught up on stories and destroyed some steaks.
You all have a great Sunday.

We shall see how it looks in the living room. Have to stop at Lowe's and get some pads for the legs. I saw them there but have to take one off to ensure I get the correct size.... My Darling just left for my oldest daughters house to pick lettuce and primp her garden. I have a cup of coffee and some peanut butter fudge cookies. (Yeah, I LIKE'EM.)
The stripping of this piece took some time...

Mother Nature dropped a bunch of rain today/tonight here the Louisville area today. That should take care of any rain deficits around here.
Good morning from ATX. Currently 80°F and clear. South wind at around 6 mph. Today's high estimated at 104°F. Dog days of summer upon us.
Another weekend in the books. Monday, Monday.
Wishing y'all an awesome day.

Another Monday. Ugh.
Overcast again in the east, after a sunny and warm weekend.
Hope the Cats get good news on Tre Mitchell today. Add him and the big, raw center, Cyril, and it'll be an interesting team with some real potential.
Have a good day.

Had a weather alert for high winds and hail from 4 to 8 ET...
Always enjoyed this song... Meaning not withstanding, it was a joy to listen to all the voices...

SOB. Good friend left for vacation Saturday morning to Yellowstone with sons & grandsons & brother. Really excited.
She came down with covid Saturday afternoon! She's been in hospital there since Saturday & and got quite sick, but appears to be recovering after starting on paxlovid yesterday. Rest are continuing on in Yellowstone except brother is keeping tabs. He's one great guy - does for anyone & everybody.
She hasn't had a lot of opportunities to do things like this, so sadder than if was someone like me who's been a lot of places and seen many things. So I missed one. NBD. Feel bad for her.

Good morning from ATX, Currently 79°F and clear. Expecting 104°F for today's high.
Bad news: I've lost 10 lbs since Jun 19. I've been eating more of a Keto diet lately in an attempt at slowing this weight loss. Hopefully some positive results come about between now and July 11, date of my next scheduled oncologist visit. Plan on visiting KY again this coming Saturday. I'm not ready to leave this world yet.
Wishing all an awesome Tuesday.

Austin, I’m sorry for the setback in maintaining your weight. I hope it is temporary.
Sunny and hot in the east. Heading into another long day in the office —topped by a mandatory appearance at an awards dinner tonight. I’ll be so glad to have this one behind me. I hope you all have a good day.

Thank goodness, she's much improved, out of hospital, non-contagious. Still, a messed up big vacation.
Good morning and Happy Hump Day from ATX. Key words = hot. hot, hot.
Wishing all a wonderful day.

I got a Bunyan-bunion....
Good morning all,
Busy day yesterday. My Darling got to meet most of the people that work with and for me.
I stand a little taller now. All that know me, know I am the black sheep of my family. At least the least sheep of my family.
My peers, counterparts, and leadership meeting My Darling gives credence to my stature.
It was a good day. I am thankful.
Heading inside...treat your day like it's worth something. You are....

77° this morning with light winds. Today's high to be around 107°. Ouch! Too hot for fishing at this point. It is going to cool down a little by the weekend so, I will try one of the upcoming mornings to get a few hours in.
Bought a new rod and reel this week at Sam's. It is exactly like the last one I bought because that one is the best caster I have ever had. The combo was only $80.00 and can cast a good way. I had bought the one I had early in the year and wanted another one. They must be popular because other times I went they were sold out.
Wife and daughter like the color. Funny how we look at it differently, women look at the aesthetics and men at functionality.
Slow day today and an inside day for sure with the temp in triple digits.
Got to walk the monster shortly so you folks be careful out there and God Bless.
Good morning folks.
Sunny and warm in the east.
A productive evening at the awards ceremony I was dreading. We took first in the most important “overall excellence” categories. Two more trophies to go in a case and be swiftly forgotten. No one awards themselves more than journalists and publishing.
My daughter —still bruised from that car crash —and her boyfriend braved the rain to watch the Reds win in Baltimore. The Redlegs come to DC next and I’m still planning to go though my son ditched me for a July 4 weekend beach trip to Ocean City. Do not blame him at all. Young women barely dressed, beach volley ball and bar hopping along an ocean pier versus sitting for three hours in a sweltering stadium. Not a tough call.
Hope it’s a good day for everyone.

Morning folks. Sunny, hazy and 71.6°F on our way to 89°.
Sunday night's storm gave us 1.64 inches of rain and lots of damage. I have two 75' tall wild cherry trees down on my fence and my neighbors back yard.
Much to clean up. We were without electricity for about 16 hours and 36 hours without internet. Our cell phones are AT&T and even they were out for over a day.
You all have a great hump day.

Cincy area going to be so screwed up this weekend between two Swifty concerts & Reds at home. Reds have moved tomorrow's game up to 5:10pm to avoid some of the stuff.

The fire dept is renting a building next door to my shop because theirs was destroyed in a tornado. I let them park a truck in my parking lot at no cost, but I came in Monday morning and there were two trucks blocking access to my loading area for customers. The chief told me he had been out till four in the morning. A big wind storm had hit in the county, lots of trees down. Roads blocked and power outages.
