The Coffee House

We've had more rain again in the last 24 hours. It's drizzling right now after pouring all night.

However, the temperature has really dipped - it's 64F right now! It won't last but it's kinda nice, as opposed to rain and stifling temps with humidity.
 
Hot, hot and hot today. We are on the schedule with 2 of the grands. The first is in the AC school. The second is a special marching band performance for family. Hopefully it won't be too hot at 7 pm.
 
Hiya all. Decided to pop in and chill here before I blow a gasket
Waited in all day for the plumber...... 22.37 BST bang think he will come tonight....
Waited for family member who we are helping by storing boxes for her.... “Be there by 7pm” she says
Yea right!
On the good side. Muz is looking for stools to put potted plants on, just rough finished the first of six
I am making them from scrap wood, Turing the legs on a laith.... leaving the hard way
Just discovered the tolerance limit of peg in hole..... after I split the socket on the base.... oh jamming lol
It’s on “test” put the biggest pot on it to test overnight. If still ok in the morning , I will sand down the rough edges and give it a coat of wood stain.

Ahhh! The plumber! I think I made a career mistake... the senior plumbers make very good money. There is a lot of competition in our market, so they usually show when they say they will, otherwise they can lose the job, and then they can't jet off to Grand Cayman for holiday. 😂
 
Gonna make tasty n' delicious sandwiches and go out to the reserve for a couple of hours. Bunnys are out the backyard as usual making use of this winter sunshine🤪🤪.

We are once again mirroring your weather. Lots of rain here the past couple of days - mostly in the form of heavy downpours followed as a storm rolls through. 70’s today. I’m waiting to see if I have Covid. Went to Portland ME for the weekend with a friend who tested positive today. Sigh. I’m negative so far but feeling a bit sketch.

It should hopefully be cooling down tomorrow. The temperature today was 81, so cooler than yesterday's temps of 90, but it was so humid and the sun was brutal. Tomorrow's supposed to be lower 70s, so here's hoping.

Here's how I am getting myself through: home screen pic of my snowy back yard and a widget counting down to the autumn equinox.

Wishing you a negative test.
 
We survived the middle school open house. It was busy! We got our daily steps in walking around and backtracking several times. It was hot yesterday, but fortunately when we went to the HS marching band performance the temps dropped rapidly. Glad I brought a sweater for the 30 degree drop. I took a ton of photos. The band director said no posting on socials because of upcoming competition. The performance was just a sample of the show. I don't think he meant videos and not photos, but I'll sit on the photos before sending posting. I took 5 or 6 vertical photos while they were in formation at the beginning and will stitch together.
 
Oh Peg wishing you well, sent you e hug
Hope it’s a neg test
Pics of pot stand posted, thinking of doing a stage by stage photos of how they were made... tnoughts
 
@SquarePeg hoping you remain negative. I guess COVID is going to be with us forever, thankfully it's a lot less scary now, but still troublesome
