What's on your agenda for today?

It's 8 AM here and July 4th. No big plans for today All of the family is at Pismo Beach for the holiday weekend to get away from the Valley heat. I will cook up some Baby Back Pork Ribs for myself and just hang out.
 

I have plans to poison some weeds and then watch a movie this afternoon.....my son and his family always sell fireworks on the 4th and the others are busy packing since they've sold their house so its just another ho hum day here.

Lovely photos, Annie and Holly.
 
Annie and Holly - you both take such fabulous pix! I rarely post pictures online because I've never been a decent picture-taker.
I hope everyone's 4th is a good one - we've had off and on rain today but hope that lets up in time for fireworks - if the night is clear enough, I can see some off the fireworks go off in the distance. If I were any farther away from town, I wouldn't be able to see any of it. Tomorrow I'll be visiting hubby at the med center and some friends are going as well since my achy heel is hard to push the pedals with - so my buds offered to drive. :wink-new:
 
Kath, thanks for the comliment but really we'd love to see your photos if you ever get around to posting them, I enjoy seeing everyone's photos..as well as taking my own...please don't think that we wouldn't enjoy them even if you think they're not great, I'm sure we will.. :D Hope you get a clear enough night to enjoy the sight of the amazing firework shows!!
 
I enjoy seeing everyone else's photos as well!

Finishing up the laundry from our trip. Finished unpacking. And nearly finished uploading photos to my Flickr albums and writing my blog (a travelogue). I will resize some of the photos from last week and post them here.
 
Afternoon folks...

Pleased you enjoyed your trip despite the flat tyre and the rain Annie, looking forward to seeing your pictures.

We've had rain this morning but the sun is coming out now and drying everything up nicely again.

I've just been out raking the lawn of the dreaded layer of Holly leaves that have been constantly falling due to the unusually hot temps we've been having for the last few weeks, it's an almost daily job at the moment, and it's a back breaking job. I do have a leaf blower, but it's such a faff to get out from the back of the shed as well as being horrendously noisy so I rake the leaves by hand..

Today I'm just catching up with some recorded TV programmes...and a little ironing, and otherwise chilling on the pooter..

Bullie, I hope you have a lovely time next week at the condo..very good idea to stay away during the holidays.. :D

Thanks. We actually had very little rain. Had a mix of cloud and sun and a wee bit of drizzle. A very short shower one day but not for long. Back to choosing some pics to resize.

Had a 14 hour episode of atrial fibrillation yesterday initiated by a particularly strenuous floor exercise I was doing. How's that for pay back for good intentions? So today I'll try to accomplish my yesterday's agenda.

Hope all is well now, Josiah!
 
Oh poor you Josiah...what a scary experience for you , hope you're feeling a whole lot better today..you must take it easy you know, gentle exercises..no more swinging from chandeliers ;)

Annie, yes we also have those road signs here in the country lanes..or close to old folks homes and centres..
 
Breakfast at 7 AM then Petanque Melee at 8 AM Play begins at 9 AM for a few games before the day hits 100+F then back to my apartment for lunch and nap-----Chill out for rest of day and evening. Netflix tonight.
 
Morning folks,

Grey start to the morning, rain forecast soon for today, but high temps and high humidity . Off to the workhouse shortly ..for another 12 hours down the mine. have a good day everyone..:)
 
Mornin', everyone. I'm meeting my friend, Anne, early this morning and we're going to a neighboring community (La Mesa for those of you familiar with the area) for a 1 to 2 hour walk with a group. It will be leisurely walking on flat terrain. It will be fun to meet others who like walking early in the morning. San Diego weather has been oddly overcast and humid with temps in low 70s lately. Unusual for July. This is fine with me but tourists and some residents prefer blazing sun. I expect it will return to normal July weather soon. :sunshine: After the walk, we'll probably undo our good work by having a nice brunch. I hope everyone has a wonderful day! :)
 
Hope you enjoyed your group walk Glinda and it wasn't too humid for you.

Today was a mix of showers and sun. Long day at work, a lot to do today..hopefully tomorrow won't be quite as manic.

9.30pm here so another half hour and it'll be bedtime for me,:eek:fftobed: gotta be up again at 5am..

Have a good rest of the day everyone..:D
 
Glinda your walk sounds like a lot of fun - best walks are those where you can join up with other interesting folks!

Holly, your hours (5 a.m.to 9:30 p.m.) are just the same as mine when I was still working. That five o'clock hour came so early!

Today I had an appt. with my orthopod for another test of my messed up shoulder and then he gave me a big shot into the shoulder ball-and-socket joint - OW!!! The road over to the doctor's office is under construction so I had to make some weird turns and was a bit late for appt. I apologized my head off but then I realized I wasn't the one who thought up the detour. Running around in 90 degree heat and high humidity is a jog inside hell.

Got home from the doctor's just in time to get the dog to her beauty appt. She looks pretty slick and smells like lilies but it was such a big deal to her that she's now in the middle of a kind of exhaustion coma. I think this will be an early night-night.

Sleep tight everyone!
 
Good Morning all...

Oh Kath what a rotten day for you yesterday..that Shoulder injection sounds verrry painful, and all the stress on top of being late but thankfully you weren't the only one. How brave you are to come home after that and still manage to get pooch to her beauty appointment awww, you sound like my daughter it's the sort of commitment she has to her dogs too. I hope you feel better today! ((hugs))

Rainy day today, temps about 21 degrees, but we're going to have a cold wind so I'll have to rethink my outfit this morning for work..put a cardigan or a jacket over the top I think.

Have a lovely day everybody..:D
 
Went to the gym this morning. Ran into my American friend and we had a long blether, but fortunately I didn't have bus to catch as I drove into town to shop.

Kath, hope your shoulder feels better.
 
Morning all,

No work for me today, off to see the consultant ( again)..this morning at the hospital, hopefully with some resolutions. Later into work for a corporate meeting, and then hopefully home early afternoon..so a short day for me...and then working from home tomorrow and then off until next week...yeaaah!! suits me fine!!

Daughter who has boarding kennels had an English bulldog die on her during the night from heat exhaustion. Poor little thing was brachycephalic , she only had 1/3 lunch capacity because of that and couldn't get enough air into her lungs due to the high temps( 47 degrees yesterday and still 30 degrees at 10pm at night..even tho' they applied all their first aid training and their vet did everything they could to save her, poor little pooch died. My daughter is heartbroken, but just despairs at seeing dogs who are bred in such a way to have their health suffer so badly for appearances sake.:(
 
Holly, hope you have a good result at the consultants and a short day at work.

Aww..poor dog. 47 degrees!!?
