    How’s your day going, love? Wishing you the best day as well!!
    Went okay, didn’t accomplish much though ;)

    Do you work? If so what do you do? I retired at 62 but am still working part time as a contract worker for an old butcher friend.

    Nothing wrong with a lazy day!

    I wish, I miss it. I’m a stay at home mom; I also homeschool my oldest (he’s autistic). My hands are pretty full lol :p But damn do I miss getting out and adult interaction lol!

    I stayed at home with our two until both were old enough to stay alone but I definitely didn’t attempt homeschooling. I do admire those who can.

    Good evening everyone :cool:

    Welcome to the forum GP

    Hope you all have a great night :wub:
    Hi Joey. :wub:
    Hope work isn’t sweating you too much!

    Aw sorry luv, it’s always hot and humid here in Arkansas but at least I don’t work in a factory without air conditioning. I couldn’t handle that anymore.

    At least we can go into the break room to cool off for a bit ;)

    Homeschooling definitely isn’t what I set out to do lol; COVID pushed the hand on that one. After they all started returning back to school staffing went down drastically, they took away his 1:1 and his services voiding his IEP… Rendering that environment (and his learning ability there) useless and stressful. He’s never been as successful and relaxed as he is since starting the homeschooling program though so it’s a win! Online makes it easy, and he’s actually ahead two grades now. Too smart to keep busy, and too affected to cope— makes for a rough situation in public school!

    Good afternoon everyone :wub:

    Corn fields are not cooperating this past week, hopefully we will be running full bore tonight. I hate it when we do not run production, with nothing else to do I usually ask to leave.

    Hope everyone has a great rest of your day :cool:

    I don’t blame you, standing around with nothing to do at work is boring! However for your financial situation I hope the corn cooperates. ;)

    Supper tonight was a ribeye with green beans and hash browns … I admit that I really dislike cooking shredded hash browns, I much prefer the patties but these were free so there’s that. ;)

    Looks like we're going to get a reprieve from the heat tomorrow before it goes back into the triple digits.

    Be nice to see some rain if it actually comes to fruition.
