Good morning, dale and Sara, Our last hot day is Friday. It says it will rain Friday night and into the weekend and finally cool off.
Good morning ladies
Well, I hope September flies by quickly and that there are more lows than highs.
Oof, Fran. We have 90s today and tomorrow, 80s Thursday with rain and 70s on Friday also with rain. Then all 70s for the foreseeable future.
Transition months are my least favorites. Especially when you are at work. Chilly outside (perfect weather for windows to be open) but you are uncomfortable inside because there are no windows and they won’t turn on the ac.
Hope everyone is having a good day.

90 here right now and for the next 2 days. Almost 90 for Friday with rain coming in . 70's by Sunday.
Good evening Sara and Fran
91 currently, was cloudy this morning but it didn’t last and of course no rain. Years ago you could always count on rain when the fair was in town but that’s no longer the case.
We had panko coated chicken breasts, broccoli and bbq beans for supper.

The Rat had a wonderful trip but has been so busy I have not had a chance to post. sniff, sniff
I posted once but for the life of me I cannot remember what I told you. Oh well. The main thing is I had a wonderful time and I dearly loved his family. We even ended up going to Georgia to see his brother. Ken had not seen him in a long time so it was nice.
I am pretty sure his family liked me. What's not to like?
I am just kidding but they all made me feel at home. I hope to see them again.
The trip was not totally perfect. Ken got a speeding ticket on the way back. Within 50 miles of home, he got pulled. I could not really blame him. The traffic was all moving so fast and that car is so smooth that you don't realize how fast you are going. Of course, we do know because the ticket said he was going 86 in a 70. I really hated it but I was glad it happened at the end of our trip.
When we got home Monday, guess who had no A/C? I have had nothing but bad luck with that unit since the day they installed it back in 2017. Thank goodness we had a warranty so the parts did not cost. I think I told y'all about the $330 labor cost for installing a motor. Well this time, it is the compressor.
The unit is made by Goodman. Because I have had so many issues, they offered to give me a brand new unit which is bigger and more cost efficient. I still have to pay for the labor to have it installed which I am not sure I think is fair because I already paid for it once.
The quote for installation was $1800.00. The first two days, I talked him down to $1600. It took me a few more days but I finally got it down to what I feel is reasonable. Ken and me are going to help him and his assistant. In fact Ken is going to pick up the unit with his truck and trailer. The ac man told Ken he better keep me because I was one heck of a woman. Ken said he agreed. They are so silly but anyway it is now going to cost $700 cash. I am pleased with that.
It worked out well that I could spend the night with Ken. With my thyroid issues, I keep mine set at 76 or 78. Ken on the other hand is hot-natured and keeps his on 69. I wish I had packed winter pajamas.
Well anyway, we meet the man at 9 tomorrow and hopefully I will finally be sleeping in my bed. I miss my bed.
I have been so busy and active, that I have only gained 1 pound this trip. Probably sweated most of it off. We went to the Moose Lodge last night and tonight. Double meat nachos last night and a fish sandwich and tots tonight. I really do like their food. Everything I have had has been delicious. They are supposed to have pot roast tomorrow night and Ken said we might have to go again. Doesn't matter to me, just tell me when.
I will tell you that the relationship has really gotten pretty serious for both of us. I know it has only been two months but we have spent quite a bit of time together and I am happy about it. Of course, I have told him he is still on probation until the first of the year but judging from his pros and cons, I want him to stick around.
I am on the couch wrapped up in a blanket. Since I am warm I am going to go run jump in bed and hopefully have enough heat to warm the sheets quickly. (fingers crossed)
Glad to be back. I sure do miss y'all when I'm gone.
Have a great Thursday!

I feel the same way you both do. That is why I watched my friend's dog for her while she took the grandkiddos away. That dog was very old and I did not want to see her stay in a kennel. My friend said something else about a trip they were planning but I'm not sure I want to dog-sit again so soon. We'll see. It's awfully hard for me to say no to anyone that I can help.
Hi Rat2
I knew you were getting pretty close to Ken Really glad you had a great time on your trip, sorry about the ticket but it happens.
Getting late for me so good night everyone

Good morning lurkers
Glad you had a wonderful time Rat2 And that is awesome you were able to get the cost down.
Hope you all have a wonderful day!

Good morning. Looks like it is going to be another hot day. I am so glad that my AC will be operational today. I hope.
Listening to music, drinking coffee, and posting on here. Ahhh, life is good.
Y'all know me pretty well and I really do like Ken. He has had an interesting past in his younger days but I think a lot of him. You may (I know I do) find it hard to believe but I asked him if he would like to move in with me. Guess that is pretty serious.
I have only been by myself for a year but I have actually been by myself for many, many, many years. I want to live life and enjoy life with someone. There is not much that this o'l girl couldn't handle but it would be nice to have someone in my corner. He makes me feel special. The most important thing is I love talking with him and laughing.
If anything changes, I know for a fact, I will never settle for anything. Life is too short and that is what I have done my whole life. As long as I am happy and I feel appreciated, I want to see where this goes.
I sure am glad there is a blanket on this couch because I am freezing. This is nothing new though because my ex was hot-natured and kept the house like an ice box. It is more comfortable to put on a sweatshirt than it is to be miserable when you are hot. That's an easy compromise.
Hope everyone has a wonderful Fri-YAY eve.
