How’s the Weather?
Come in, Come in. Please make yourself at home. I have Lemonade and Iced Tea, I could put the Kettle on to boil, if you prefer hot or an Herbal. I have a half pot of Decaf coffee that just brewed.
Yes the Lemonade and Iced Tea are sugar free, just a little Splenda.
How have you been doing? How’s your health?
I’m doing fine. I get exhausted a little after work because of my Diabetes, but I have been watching my sugars and my eyesight is doing well, my feet are doing well and my shoulder gets a little more mobility every day.
Work has been hard but plentiful. I was able to get a little overtime in.
Of course the IRS has sent me a certified letter that I have been unable to get my hands on yet. As I work when the post office is open and I can’t take off work.
Amy is back at college. She left Monday morning. Dylan has a job at Wendy’s. So far he hasn’t received a letter to report so he may have not enlisted yet. But DET can be tricky.
The Weather here has been absolutely beautiful. Lows in the 60s, low to mid 80s for highs. Beautiful blue skies.
My apologies for not being on much lately.
So tell me about yourself. How are you doing? How’s the Kids.
How has the weather been at your place? Were you able to get any fishing in? I just can’t seem to go fishing anymore without the kids.
I think I am really suffering from Empty Nest syndrome. Nothing seems to interest me and all my work days are running together.
Much love. Come back soon.
Damn Roscoe, the last time you invited us you offered a beer!
Nice. Weather does not include bugs does it? Except here standing water breeds a Republican horde of mosquitoes. Oh wait… This is a non political blog. Nevermind.
Hi, decaf is fine. I’m fine except for a bit of resurgance of depression (otherwise known as lakamony syndrome), the wife’s feet are swelling so they look like inflated surgical gloves; actually I would prefer suicide to fishing, thank you, though I do enjoy the baked fish at the Chinese Buffet (I wonder if I’m suffering some fish deficiency?) The food stamps came in, so we won’t starviate for maybe a month; our boy Tucker is fine, taking after ma and pa more every day. The weather sucks donkey pus; way too much humidity which makes the 5 feet tall grass that we already can’t cut grow ever higher. It was honestly very nice to have met you Roscoe, and I do hope we can chat again, especially if I can be a more uplifting friend to you, and maybe bring a cold beer.
I’ll take a nice glass of iced teas Roscoe!!! The weather here has been wonderful too. I hope that oppressive heat doesn’t come back anytime soon. I never thought about men having empty nest syndrome, makes me feel for ya!! I’m suffering from some pms and cramps today.
Was that too much information??? :love:
Hiya Roscoe!
Things are hot and humid down here. Constantly hanging right around 98 degrees. The daily afternoon drizzles keep the air similar to a mildewy goldfish bowl.
If you’re having any neuropathy or nerve pain from the diabetes, you might want to try eating some pineapple here and there. It’s been proven to help with diabetic neuropathy.
G’day g’day….I’ve just woken up to a sunny winters day and the big blue, expecting about 17C (62F), the bluebells have popped up in my front garden, always the first harbinger …..Spring will be here soon, football season will soon be over….
Decaf? Mind if I bring my own coffee….need something with a little more grunt….
I’ll take some of that sugar free iced tea you’re offering, thank you. 🙂
I’m happy to see that life seems to be treating you well. So, how are things by me?
Well for starters the weather has improved some. We haven’t hit 106 degrees again so that’s always a good thing 😛 LOL. This week was in the 80’s and I had opportunity to go to the beach the other day. I LOVE the beach! 😀 When I’m there I completely forget all of my problems as I watch the waves roll back and forth, smell the sea air and feel the sun on my face……through multiple layers of sunscreen, that is. I’m a fair skinned red head and I get sunburn at the drop of a hat, LOL.
I’ve also been working on an online project with some friends of mine so that’s been fun. In addition to this I think I have reached a crossroad in my life. After spending a lifetime of making sure everyone was happy, I finally decided to add my own name to the list as well. I’m still just learning how, but I think I’m worth the effort.
I hope life keeps showing and giving it’s best to you. 🙂
Hey Roscoe,
Weather’s been good. Running a bit around 108 degrees. Today it was cloudy and gray (a day that I always love) so the temperature stayed down under 100 and it rained a bit. I guess it didn’t rain enough since it hasn’t gotten muggy out there yet. It’s actually pretty nice outside right now even though it is still over 90 degrees.
Baby Girl had her 2nd birthday party on Thursday and we spent the evening in a park having burgers, dogs, cake and ice cream. It was hot, but the park is at the base of a mountain and the view overlooking Vegas is pretty cool so I thought it was an even trade.
Spent the day Friday at Lake Mead. The air was 110 degrees and the water was 86 degrees. My idea of heaven in the desert. There was a light breeze blowing that gave you goosebumps when you got up out of the water, but the sun baked you dry quickly enough. We didn’t do any fishing this time since it was a day to just enjoy the water. There aren’t many left before school starts again.
Keep on keepin’ on Roscoe. That empty nest thing never seems to last that long. Something always comes along to fill the spaces.
I’m Anti-oxidant, and Pro-biotic! Put some ginger tea in your coffee pot : fancy flavor coffee, which is kind to your stomach.
The Garden gave me a ten inch long heirloom carrot. This one was yellow, but many are purple, blue or red, and some are white. Since I compost everything, I have Lettuce Gone Wild! And there’s this tangy redhead who has spread outside of the Garden, name of Romaine…
