Glad you at least have the laptop to keep in touch, SAR. It's nice that Brandon is helping you get so much done! Had storms in the area again but as usual, they mostly went around us. Still not much and we badly need it, but at least it cooled off a little from being 98 to 101 degrees.
Hope everyone is having an enjoyable 4th of July weekend!

Was glad to see that you got to spend time with family on your birthday, SAR. Hope that computer guy is close to working on your computer!
Very hot and muggy here. Just spent two hours going in and out watering, weeding, trimming, and planting and I'm drenched in sweat. Time for a shower! Having trouble with my left arm and hand so had to avoid lifting water cans with it so it took a lot longer. Started physical therapy last week for the problem but so far haven't noticed much improvement.
Friday will mark 17 years since Ryan was murdered. Trying to keep my mind occupied as the day approaches but tears are still flowing off and on.
Hope everyone is well and keeping cool on these hot days of July!

Yay, sounds like you are almost back in business as far as a computer, SAR. I'll bet you can't wait to be all set up. What kind of doctor did you go to for the sciatica and what did he do?
Been picking tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers and harvested some sage, chamomile, basil and sage. Got them all washed, ate lunch and now I'm ready to go
Hope you are all having a good weekend!

Wow, hadn't heard of that treatment, SAR. I'm guessing that it is temporary relief? Do you get physical therapy also?
Not enjoying the awful heat and humidity we are having. Doesn't look like it's going to let up anytime soon, either. Praying that all of us in the ultra hot areas of the country don't lose power! Here's a current map of the hot areas. We are in the 99 degree area, with heat indexes over 100. weather.com/maps/current-heat-index
Trying to keep my containers watered one gallon at a time is rough with this kind of weather. I am getting a few tomatoes and cucumbers right now, but I imagine that will slack off soon.
Thinking of our members who haven't posted here in a long time and hoping that all is well with them. Wonder whatever happened to Barefoot Mailman?

PL I do not get the physical therapy, I watched and do it here, and I do not get massage, as my insurance will not pay.
I heard from BF for awhile, ihae not heard anything lately, I was a bit too conservative for some things he posted on FB, so I had to delete him.... I always liked him, but ith grand kids on my FB I could nopt have some of the things on his feed...:( I am planning a b day party at the winery for sat night for my friend Fran tht I hang ith and go to dr with... it is to be cooler by Sat night.. stay safe in this heat, everyone.

Are you back in business as far as the computer yet, SAR?
Hot and miserable here. A friend wanted to do lunch today, but we decided to wait til Monday when the high will only be 90. I suggested that we dig out the sweaters when that happens. I think with the heat index today it will be around 110.
Picked a couple of nice cucumbers this morning and gave one to a neighbor. I only have 3 plants but they are doing quite well. Tomatoes won't be setting any more fruit until it cools down.
Hope everyone has a great weekend!
