My son was returning my camera he borrowed awhile back. When, before he handed it to me, I saw a flash & heard an “Oops,” I turned & scowled his direction. The result is below, which I found when I uploaded my recent images from my camera to my computer. I forgot he took this! Good thing I had just put my hand to my face as he took the shot. I believe he meant to take the pic (but not with my hand there)!


Yesterday, Hilo set a few records temperatures. It had a new low temp for the city, the low for the state & the high for the state for that date. We started off with 60 for the low in the morning, 87 for the high. Today is turning out to be the same way, with it so chilly here this morning that my kitties were either piled on me or together in a small box. I saw four faces in a box about 8″ wide by 11″ long by 7″ deep. Most were kittens about 4 months old, but there was at least one adult cat in there!
I forgot to check the temp before taking my son to school this morning, but checking it now (12:45 PM), it’s 87 inside & 90 outside, the outdoors temp sensor bulb about 3 feet below the roof. Still at least an hour or two before it begins to cool down again! So if you wonder why I haven’t come by lately, the house is too hot, even with a fan, to sit here without pouring sweat, so I go outside in my garden where it’s cooler (fighting mosquitos!). I’m non-productive with the temp so high, so nothing gets done inside or out. *Sigh* I hate hot! I really don’t feel well with the temp as high as it is… no energy & guick to tire with the least amount of exertion. No wonder I left Texas!
*Note: I don’t do metric numbers, so everything I mention is in Standard, unless I say otherwise!

:( weather report still says we got this yukky, no tradewind weather for awhile … damn, we’ve got to be at aloha stadium late saturday afternoon for pearl city high’s graduation … that place gets so hot or it seems to drizzle when everywhere else is dry … have a good hump day!
Ewww don’t mention Texas weather it has been in the high 90′s since March … usually it doesnt start getting that hot until later in the year but it is turning out to be a very hot, very humid, nasty summer.
Yep, it’s hot here as usual. I don’t even go outside anymore because of the temperatures. Can’t stand it. And I still have no idea what I’m getting from Social Security. I called them the other day to enquire about it and everything’s pretty normal here…..the lady I spoke too was a total bitch and wouldn’t tell me anything except that I would be getting a check in a month or so. Like I said…normal for Seguin.
I have never heard of state funded car insurance. Even though I do have a car now, I don’t think Texas does that. Anyway, I told the lady that called me that Paul had given up all rights, but she said when the military is involved, it doesn’t matter, that Amber could get a check from his disability. I have my doubts, but she was going to check into it. Actually, I’d rather she didn’t, but she told me it wasn’t my choice. I’d really hate to get that crap started with him again.
It has been cooler here than normal for this time of year…but it is nice….
I hope you have a great day
