I guess we will see when we get the tail wind of Laura. We sure need the rain though 😉 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Entergy Texas provided an update on Twitter around 8:30 a.m. Friday saying that it has canceled the periodic outages, which were put into place because of a widespread power loss in other areas caused by Laura. We now have our power and it is wonderful to have air conditioning. It is hot and humid here. That is good news indeed 🙂 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was classed as one (among other things . . . think searching for precious metals using a shovel), because DH and I are nearly 14 years apart; I'm only 9 years older than his daughter. LOL I know @Copper10-8 refers to his beautiful wife as his "child bride" as well for similar reasons. We've been married 43 years this year - and they said it wouldn't last! Smooth Sailing! 🙂🙂🙂 Gerry 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare rafinmd Posted August 28, 2020 #55 Share Posted August 28, 2020 I'm feeling pretty good about today. My church annually collects school supplies for a local school and I ordered some to be donated. The shipment was seriously delayed in transit but finally arrived today, missing the initial distribution but they did arrive this afternoon and can be used to replenish the supply. I finally sent around a draft of the church's annual financial report and we should be able to submit it on time Monday. And I got a haircut this morning after a gap of only 178 days since the barber in Sydney. Roy 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dismomx5 Posted August 29, 2020 #56 Share Posted August 29, 2020 Thanks to Rich and Roy. I'd love the Lemon Chicken kebabs, but it was fish today. Sending prayers for those who need them and toasting those who are celebrating. Blessings for a wonderful weekend. Be well. Stay safe. Be kind. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare erewhon Posted August 29, 2020 #57 Share Posted August 29, 2020 Thanks for the daily update. Roy, that must be a record for you, between haircuts, did you and the barber have to wear masks? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did not take my temperature; he said his partner did but it is not required and we both have a feeling that people with that much of a fever are unlikely to be out and about. I had to hold my mask with my hands while he trimmed around my ears. Roy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
