May we move on, for coffee and chat ?

[Hair Trigger Jim]

78 here already heading for upper 80s today with storms tonight. Gonna be preaching at Church tonight, Pastor's out of town, I always feel nervous about preaching in the main service, don't know why but I do. Anyways, lifting my coffee cup at you.

As a deacon who doesn't preach, I'll pray for you with confidence that the Lord will strengthen you and minister through you.

Pop up aka pop corn storms today.

Went to bed at 11 and just got up, got up and right back a couple times, feel decent, I think coffee will help. Not sure if it's good or bad but I feel better.

Thanks, Slim
The heat is on here another day in upper 90's wind about 12 mph, and 95% humidity @ 3PM
feels like hair dryer outside.
We are about 2" short on rain.

The good news is the High will move off, heat will break, we should be back to our normal for May mid 80's by Saturday.

The Boss is letting me cook a few things, mostly my baked Salmon and stuff on the grill. She let me cook this recipe I found on YouTube. It's tasty and easy to make: 

Actually, you can put anything you want in it. I've been adding Mushrooms and Ham. Atached is a picture of my last masterpiece. The War Department liked  it.

Great niece is graduating today, we decided to go to just the reception.  A lot less walking, I could OK, Rita would not.   

Because of a fluke we had to go to Costco on Wednesday, not the day to go.  Went early afternoon, first try no old people carts, so went to the Walmart nearby, came back and the same, went to lunch, place we chose was not real busy but most were, mostly old people though for what there were, half full and it's pushing 3pm.   Costco was the same, no carts, Took the Walmart plunder back home, had coffee and headed back, no carts, decided to sit on ledge and wait, a friend came in with one, talked a bit, second one did not come so I got a push cart.  Mostly made it, decided to test out a fancy easy chair, was nice, but way to expensive and Rita finished up and we paid, loaded and left.

[Delmonico]

Same here, got things to do, important things, but not sure if I want whole wheat or some sort of rye.

Real bread, not that Yuppie Artisan stuff full of holes like Swiss cheese, a crack as big as the San Andres fault and little flowers drawn on it.

[Major E A Sterner]

Afternoon Y'all yesterday, had the reception for my Son and Daughter in law(they eloped last October) Had a fair time.Coming back home I was carrying leftover food into the house and tripped and fell, I saved the food but hurt my knee and left forearm.I'm very stiff today. Match today was cancelled due to weather,But I doubt I would have gone due to my injuries. Hope your days are better.

Oh! the simple things we do to Wreck ourselves. 

I was not going to own up to my latest, but since you opened to door, I'll testify....

I flipped my electric mobile scooter; it reared up like an Unbroke bronco.
Landing on my back with front wheels pointed towards Heaven, and me on my keester still in the seat.
I'm glad no one saw it, Hell I even laughed at my own ridicules position.
I was unhurt but might have turned out way different. The tools, 18V cordless drill, 16 oz hammer,
a pair of plyers, a bag of screws, the scooters charger, my ball cap and sundried misc. parts catapulted over my head at some force.
The above missiles missed my face and cranium by about a foot. Nor did I smack the back of my head
or cause whiplash.

I was in the seat, something akin to a space launch position. No one home, cell phone in the house....
Laying there for several moments, assessing any personal harm.
The whole experience, was like in slow motion, when I realized I did not off myself, and absurdity set in
I laughed, looking around assuring myself no one, anyone saw my stupidity. 



Note to self, DON"T try to jump the sidewalk from the lawn at a 90-degree angle. the wheely that ensues
is not sustainable because the scoot is both top & rear heavy.
I figured I might have some pain set in sometime later, so far so good       

Feel better Major, laugh at my Wreck, laughter is a feel better remedy

Once again we were hosted to a fabulous brunch in Lincoln in honor of Mother's Day.
Fresh fruit, Caesar salad, chicken salad on bakery croissant rolls, bruschetta and a weighty concoction of chocolate and cream-filled cake. Plus a Mimosa.
An unexpected surprise, Our granddaughter Emily has been taking a woodworking class in school and made Lynn a table for Mother's Day. Birch inlaid with walnut. She made use of a table saw, planer, joiner and programmed a laser cutter to incise a design on the top, which was filled with epoxy resin to match the walnut. Then hours of sanding with progressively finer grit for a hand-rubbed finish.
Although it was Lynn's Mother's Day present, I sense a subtle nod to Grandpa.
The only caveat - when it comes time to redistribute the estate, daughter and son-in-law want it back.
