....stumbles to coffee machine.
good morning one and all! bit of a fuzzy head this morning, ooops! anyone want to do my shift at work for me??? lol

Good morning all!
Its absolutely pouring down today! Still the gardens need it (she says sarcastically)
I thought I'd slept late but actually got up an hour earlier than intended - hate it when I do that.
Did it when I was in school once - got the whole family up and rushing around.
Ran up the back lane for the bus and knocked a very startled paperboy off his bike.
In my diary at the time I wrote about it and said 'I've got a friction burn I hope he's alright'
Still makes me smile now.
My sisters were none too pleased with me when we realised we were on the bus an hour earlier than we needed to be!
They went home - I was in school before the caretaker!
Happy days!

I lost my internet connection there for a while!

Good morning Lyn. Hope you and Lola are well.

I did too last night-don't know why.

 

[Gillian M]

Can I come cool off in the CDR?
It's 98 and I'm sitting at soccer practice melting why my kid is running around.

Hi, had you been here with a heatwave what would you have done?

 

[Lyn W]

Morning Gillian I suppose its sizzling hot and sunny with you again today!
Poor Lola won't be able to go out here. Hope Oli is OK.
When it was hot here the other day Lola enjoyed being misted with water from my hand help plant spray
when he was out in the sun.
Wonder if Oli would like that too?

 

[Gillian M]

good night one and all, have good day/ sleep tight

Good morning. Hope you you're well and that you had a good night's sleep.

Yes, the beginning of the second heatwave in Jordan, which is welcome by me and only me, probably!

Poor Lola, hope he's better now. Oli only likes being soaked in warm water, without anyone touching him, even spraying water at him when it's boiling hot. He's now sitting in his 'favourite corner,' as I've named it. He could stay there for hours on end, don't know why.

Good morning to all CDR members. Had your coffee yet? I have.

I don't like rain, but that's a very nice view.

My plans were to go swimming.
By the looks of it, I don't need to go to the pool, I'll have a huge, pool sized puddle to swim in instead >.<

Is it an indoor pool?
I'm sure you'll still have fun.

No excuse for being bored then even in the rain. Sounds great!

Maybe it will brighten up

The weekend's supposed to be better.
Which part of the country are you in?

I am a pluviophile!!!! I love the rain- which is a good thing because we get a ton of it here!!!

Well, I figured out the time difference between New Orleans, Louisiana, USA (where I am) and the UK and Morocco: y'all are 6 hours AHEAD of me. So NOW I can see why so few of you are on when I'm posting at 9:00 pm, my time!!!!!!
