Good Morning everyone. I woke up to a very chilly morning...in the 40s and we are supposed to have a windy day making it feel even colder! Will have to bundle up for our walk! Coffee and tea are ready to share with Connie's breakfast.

Enjoy a Happy day!

Good morning, Danish, Donuts, and Bagels in the Break Room. Shopping today as Robert is going fishing tomorrow.

Rain, finally. We needed it.

After a busy week I'm having a nothing day. A cup of chai, some gaming, maybe a couple of hours of TV in the evening. Even the feline companion animals are feeling lazy. I think I'll make a vat of my Mexican quinoa dish again.

Welcome to the weekend Boomers.

the weekend!!!!

Good morning, Danish, Donuts, and Bagels in the Break Room. Dinner and karaoke at the Eagles tonight.

Really? I have to mix up another gallon of hummingbird food?! It's been too stinking cold the last 2 nights to have my window open, but it's a beautiful morning, so I will open it so I can listen to them chittering and squeaking.

And I can happily report that the feeders are a success. I've slept until 7:30 for the last two mornings, getting 7 1/2 hours of sleep for the first time in ages.

The only thing is that Willow considers the food in the feeder to be stray food that somehow happened to find its way into a bowl in the kitchen. When I get up she still thinks she's supposed to get fed. Furry logic. However, it's been a roaring success otherwise.

Yippee! Has Dude lost his fear of the feeder once it dispense - FOOD!

Great news hagatha!

John must have been feeding them early in the morning because I haven't slept past around 5:30 am for months. I guess Willow's been waking me up all this time. I've been sleeping reasonably well considering the circumstances, just waking up far too early in the morning.

A few of months ago I discovered a new sleep aid that seems to help a lot, too; it's CBN, which is a cannabis derivative, different from CBD. The oil that I use seems to give a longer, deeper sleep. There is a bit of research on its effects, and it looks quite promising. Sleep has been a huge issue all my life, so it's nice to find a non-habit forming product that works.

Woo Hoo Happy Saturday

Vienna Coffee, Scottish Breakfast tea and bottled Fiji water for the Break Room.

Had a great hike this morning with WOM and Max ... time for projects and chores.

Have a great day everyone

Good morning, Danish, Donuts, and Bagels in the Break Room. Since Robert is off fishing I will work the kitchen at the Eagles for our brunch.

Good morning Boomers.

Turkish Coffee, Scottish Breakfast Tea and bottled Fiji water in the Break Room.

Have a blessed Sunday everyone.

Very cold this morning, with a very thick fog. The house was only 64 degrees when I got up. Time to start turning on the heat, even if only for a few hours.

Yes. Here in the North West of the UK, where I live, only a couple of weeks ago the heat and humidity were both unbearable with one heat wave following another.

But the temperature has crashed down over the last few days and I had to put heating on for a couple of hours both yesterday and today !!

We don't seem to get properly distinguished "season" any more. Just seeming to go straight from Winter to Summer without a any real Spring and Summer to Winter without any real Autumn.

And I can't say I like it at all

There are several whale-watching boats just offshore here, with three or four Humpbacks slowly cruising past, probably asleep. Looks like there's a young one with its mother.

How cool is that, hagatha! We are having a proper warmish fall day here. The Catholic Church and school in town have their Fall Festival the 4th Friday in September every year. Some years it's hot as Hades, but this year is a beautiful warm day. We will be going to to have a few beers with friends and then eat before we leave. They serve fried chicken dinners.

That sounds like what has been going on here, too. Early September we broke records with 106 degrees Fahrenheit (41 Celsius) to 38 degrees Fahrenheit (3 Celsius) in the early morning hours a couple of weeks later. I call this getting weather whiplash.

I have also noticed shorter and shorter transitions from Summer to Winter and Winter to Summer, with sometimes Autumn and Spring scarcely to be found.

Hi Boomers, I hope everyone is enjoying the remainder of their weekend.

And I agree with you Mad re:

A lot of us here in Canada say pretty much the same thing,

😑😑😑
