Technically, aren't we all listening while we still can? After all, one couldn't listen after one couldn't..

Oh, my gosh ! That is hotter by degrees than we have had! We did have 93* for two days. Our humidity is our biggest problem I think. We are close enough to the Great Lakes and their effect on our weather. Hope you are doing well. Hello to Smokey, ❤☺! I hope the hot weather isn’t too hard on him. So far we’ve had no problems to do with power outages or lack of water, but the humidity can be bad. We’ve had days and nights with humidity at 88%. We are using the water that is normally discarded by the air conditioner/furnace and running it off into a collection system for 10 litre jugs instead of in the ground. On really bad days we get up to 22-25 litres of water about every 12 hours, which I use to help water the garden. There is enough outside to keep me busy, so I haven’t done any baking other than just what we need. I felt badly for our neighbours next door the other day, and so I offered to cut their grass and did their weeding around the house. I know they appreciate it. She had recovered pretty well from her stroke, last year, but I know she has her bad days, and her husband had been in the hospital last fall - he nearly died with diabetes he didn’t know he had. Hope things continue well for you and Smokey 😺- take care, my very good friend ! 🙏❤🫠🤗

Somebody needs to proof-read her comments.

Hi Tom. I hope you'll have a nice 4th of July.

@@GeminiladyJackson-xq6hc Thanks Gem. Wish the same yours.

Who wants to listen to commercials?!

@@Fred-mp1vf me!

Hi, Catherine ! So good to hear from you ! I know you work hard, long hours ! Hope you get some time off that you don’t have to use just for sleep ! I remember when I started working, I always seemed to have two jobs. I worked as a secretary in a school during the day, and taught cooking at a night school class. When I look back, I don’t know how I had enough time for everything and my family. I sewed my own clothes and for my family members. I always use to make my mother-in-law a nice flannel nightgown for Christmas! As far as having a ranch or a farm, I’m afraid it is much less, but I appreciate it all! I put carrots out for the mother bunny and her growing baby every late afternoon. I’m hoping if she eats those, she won’t eat my nice fresh flowers ! Hope you and your loved ones have a good holiday 🎉🇺🇸, however you spend it ! I went to Disneyland, California, in 1959, when it had been opened for 4 years - I really enjoyed that! My grandmother took me for my birthday! I love hearing from you, anytime, thank you my friend and take care ! 🙏❤🫠🤗
