Goooooooood morning, Venezuela!
Dam spell check is now using permanent marker so I can't delete it... oh well. It's a little brisk in the foggy bottom this morning. Will have to wait til after noon to mow (which means I won't be able to do so til 6pm or later) cause the sun needs to bake the moisture off a bit.
Friend of a close friend, but an acquaintance of mine really, had a miscarriage after her shots, so I'm trying to think of something appropriate to send to the family from our family to lift their spirits. Any thoughts? Should we refrain?
Never know what to say or do in social situations like these. My parents never passed on such information
Don't bring it up!!! My D-I-L and son had one, if you are a praying man, pray for them. My daughter was there visiting them when it happened and it has effected her too, Give them time! Not much else to say!!!Goooooooood morning, Venezuela!

Just a regular visit......let them talk about what they want to talk about......Just me but anything bringing up a hurt should be left unsaid. A deliberate regular visit or a deliberate regular interaction will be more meaningful later. No need to bring up the hurt, just be there.
Oh, I do hope this day shields you from hurt to where your beliefs are challenged. Be diligent in knowing and have confident that God cares for you.
Whatever happened to the month of May? Springtime? Can remember turning on the A/C in mid, late May (of course I lived in Atlanta at the time) 38 degrees this morning in the Buckeye State....freeze warning for tonight I hear.
Always thought global warming was a hoax...and climate change the same. Just a new name since the old one you could shoot holes in pretty easy. But I do wonder about the seasons some. Seems as a kid it would warm up nicely in April and be nice and warm in May. Now sometimes it takes till June to warm up. Same in the Fall. Can remember October being cool/cold...occasional snow on Halloween. Now, it's warm in October, even into November (some years not all). Like everything's shifting about a month. Could be my imagination and faulty memories from childhood. Who knows.
Hopefully can mow some of the jungle later today...if/when it warms up.
Y'all have a good day.
Her bio sounds similar to a guy in Ohio, up in the Amish country.....
'... inspiration in the imagery of Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley, becoming captivated by the life and culture of the Amish and Mennonite people of the area. She embraced the local landscapes, lifestyles, and traditions and felt that the life and culture she was part of held an important message for modern society: live simply and enjoy every moment!'
His name is Billy Jacobs. We have a few of his originals hanging on the walls.
I drive Honda's and have never bought nor needed the extended warranties. However, my sister bought a used KIA something with 70K+ miles. The transmission went out on on it along with some other things...and KIA covered it. Good on KIA.
That is what I was going to suggest to, awf, that is how it happened with my D-I-L and my daughter, they were the ones that brought it up, My D-I-L just brought it up one day saying she didn't know what would have happened if my daughter wasn't there, my son was at work.Just a regular visit......let them talk about what they want to talk about......
Jaden Hardy is still out there but he's likely to opt for the G-League or go overseas. A year ago he was almost a lock for wearing UK blue. We'll know within the next few weeks.Good morning D-League. Hope everyone is getting off to a good start.
I was glad to see the commitment of CJ Frederick. In the world of the transfer portal I think it is going to be harder to get pieces like him -- a guy who is good enough to play real minutes and probably understands he isn't going to start. The Cats need a starting point guard now -- I'd be happy with any one of Carr, Alvarado or TyTy Washington -- and one more backup player. Mintz returning would be nice. If Brooks stays I think that's essentially the team. Not a vintage Cal team, but one with a decent chance to make some noise.
A couple people mentioned the Maryland flag. I've been here more than 30 years now, and my wife came here as a teenager from NYC, and I honestly never noticed that people are overbearing about it. I'd say people from Kentucky, and definitely people from my wife's home state of New York, are more likely to attach significance to where they are from than people from Maryland.
It's just that the flag is so damn gaudy its like waving a massive Hawaiian shirt around when it is displayed.
It just occurred to me for the first time: The Maryland flag is the visual depiction of the old Sunday School song: "Red and Yellow, Black and White, they are precious in his sight." But it is a eyesore.
Yeah I'm holding off on planting my tomatoes until the nighttime low is consistently above 50. If the forecast is right then that might not happen until the 15th.Whatever happened to the month of May? Springtime?

With the rain...then having to mow when it dries out...and the chilly weather....I haven't even cranked up the tiller yet. Need to do it next week no matter what (excluding rain of course).Yeah I'm holding off on planting my tomatoes until the nighttime low is consistently above 50. If the forecast is right then that might not happen until the 15th.
I don't hold out much hope for Hardy. And honestly I never felt he was a lock for Kentucky, or ever likely to play college ball.Jaden Hardy is still out there but he's likely to opt for the G-League or go overseas. A year ago he was almost a lock for wearing UK blue. We'll know within the next few weeks.
I have a feeling UK fans will get the official news on the 2 assistants the middle of next week, and a point guard commitment next weekend.Huge get! Now a PG and help in the post and I can get excited again.

Congrats to your daughter! Quite an accomplishment.My daughter is graduating with Summa Cum Laude honors tomorrow with her Bachelor Degree in Elementary Education. Thanks goodness she gets her looks and smarts from her mother. 🤣
Wow! Congratulations to her and to her parents, whomever they may be... jkMy daughter is graduating with Summa Cum Laude honors tomorrow with her Bachelor Degree in Elementary Education. Thanks goodness she gets her looks and smarts from her mother. 🤣
That would be outstandingI have a feeling UK fans will get the official news on the 2 assistants the middle of next week, and a point guard commitment next weekend.
Congrats to the young lady. Don't be so modest Creed...I take as much credit as I can with my kids/grandkids.My daughter is graduating with Summa Cum Laude honors tomorrow with her Bachelor Degree in Elementary Education. Thanks goodness she gets her looks and smarts from her mother. 🤣
My wife is also an elementary school teacher so that probably helped but she is a very smart and determined young lady. I am very proud of her.Wow! Congratulations to her and to her parents, whomever they may be... jk
I'm shocked and amazed at the things kids excel at when their parents have no inklings in the same direction. Pretty cool to see development
Congratulations. Awesome achievement. Wishing her only success.My daughter is graduating with Summa Cum Laude honors tomorrow with her Bachelor Degree in Elementary Education. Thanks goodness she gets her looks and smarts from her mother. 🤣

Really?!I have a feeling UK adds Ty Ty Washington next weekend.

That’s the thing, it is a cool looking flag but you’re right...they put it on everything.It's a cool lookin flag, but I don't understand the obsession either
I like Ray Harm. Dali and all those "expressionist" painters leave me dead in the cold. I guess I like reality.Really liked Dali as an artist until I saw his paintings in person. I was advised to see at least one actual painting up close by a friend who said he'd been to the museum, so I checked it out. He was a HORRIBLE painter from a technical perspective early on, bit got better over time. Concepts and composition were first rate much of the time
Glad y'all had a great time
Congrats to her. I never saw even one semester with anything close to that.My daughter is graduating with Summa Cum Laude honors (3.9 GPA) tomorrow with her Bachelors Degree in Elementary Education. Thanks goodness she gets her looks and smarts from her mother. 🤣

She did it all while working 30-40 hours per week. She is a very hard working young lady who I am proud to call my daughter.Congrats to her. I never saw even one semester with anything close to that.
Everyone is different. My wife lost a pregnancy and she just didn't want anyone to bring it up and remind her of it. We were lucky. Very quickly she got pregnant again, all went perfectly and our son is 21 now...Goooooooood morning, Venezuela!

Never a fan of expressionist painting, but I liked surrealism. Never wows like some of the realistic stuff I've seen or done over the years.I like Ray Harm. Dali and all those "expressionist" painters leave me dead in the cold. I guess I like reality.
Ditto for us.Everyone is different. My wife lost a pregnancy and she just didn't want anyone to bring it up and remind her of it. We were lucky. Very quickly she got pregnant again, all went perfectly and our son is 21 now...

Soon the mantra will be that the greenhouse gasses are blocking out the sun and we will be in an Ice Age in 15 years..........the billions people have invested in solar power will be lost.........without the heat convection of the sun.......the wind turbines will quit turning.......OH, the pity.......Interesting point:
Northern Hemisphere snow mass an historic 700 gigatons above average
Interesting how this can happen during a period of 'global warming,' isn't it? You don't suppose we're being played do you? Northern Hemisphere snow mass is an historic 700 gigatons above average. (A gigaton iswww.iceagenow.info
