Karen, thanks for the early start. Nice Flower. Hope your DB will be okay. They were showing some flooded roads along the coast in Alabama. We're still getting a bit of rain from Sally since we're on the east side. They said the Gulf waters are over 90 degrees in some places, so the storm has a lot of fuel. They're going to run out of names pretty soon with all the storms brewing out there right now.
Chele, sorry you're still not feeling well and hope you get some answers this week with all the appointments. Glad to hear Iggy is doing well. The hurricanes are bad enough, but I think the fires and air quality out west are even worse. Sorry to see that it's affecting your DB's area.
Liz, it hasn't rained yet today, but it's very overcast. As long as Sally is sitting out there dragging moisture across the state, we'll probably have rain in the forecast. Sorry to hear that Zoe is having issues and hope it's not too serious. Sorry about the Eagles. Amazing how teams seem to find a way to lose sometimes. I was hoping for some improvements in FSU with the new coach, but it really looked like the same old team from last year. UCF has their first game this weekend against Ga. Tech, so that will be interesting to see how they stack up against the same team FSU played. Tech really didn't play that well either, but they played just well enough to win. Hope you're winning against those forces of evil. It certainly is a weird time. Stay safe!
Linda, Sally is dragging moisture across the state, so we'll probably get more rain today. I haven't seen much of the sun in a long time, but I'll take it over no rain. We actually have a high of 83 in our forecast a few days from now. I'll believe it when I see it!
Becky, hope they approve the PT soon.

Chele, Sweet Potato made sure we were up nice and early. I need a nap but it's amost Arya's dinner time. How was today's appointment? How are the tummy issues? The passionflowers are in bloom right now, so I thought it would be a nice avatar.
DSIL posted a couple of photos on FB and it looks like they are getting it pretty good, Kathy. It looks just south of them to the east of Mobile Bay. I can't believe how slow it's moving. They may be out of named storms pretty soon with one coming off the African coast that has a 50% chance of formation. Are you getting more rain today? We may not get anything from Sally because it looks like the remnants are going to dive south of us. I was really looking forward to an all day soaker on Friday. I was hoping you would see some improvement in FSU. Maybe next week, but then maybe not. What are you hearing about UCF's team this year? That will definitely give you a comparison between FSU and UCF. Is the previously injured UCF QB playing again? I'll bet 83 will feel pretty good, except it's probably a humid 83, so maybe not.
Liz, what's the word on Zoe? Is next week when you get your new teeth?
Any word on PT, Becky? How are the knee and foot doing? Are you still in the 90s? Are you getting smoke from the fires out west? Surprisingly, we are. It's a little hazy here and we had to close all the windows, even though it was only in the mid 70s.
Linda, I hope you're feeling better today. Are your temps cooling down? How's your air quality?
How are you doing today,Denise. Are you still working lots of overtime?
Interesting morning. After the early wake up, I almost forgot that I had an early hair cut scheduled. I was about a mile from the salon and the low tire pressure light came on. When I got to the salon, I checked all the tires and they looked fine and my stylist agreed. They looked fine when I came out after the hair cut, so I went to the gym, which is only a few blocks from the tire place I plan to use. So I stopped there and they checked all the tires and said one was a couple of pounds low but the light still didn't go off so they reset it. Hoping I just had a sensor malfunction. Sometimes it doesn't pay to have a tech savvy car.

Hi, kids, here’s today’s stuff.
The pressure in my eyes is down so off the drops and anti-inflammatory. Hopefully, being off the anti inflammatory will help the belly. The nodes are the same but now that is in the hands of opthamologist #2 or the next expert.
After my shower this morning, the faucet would not shut down the water. The plumber can’t get here until tomorrow afternoon. There is no shut off valve for the tub so we are once again without water. It is inconvenient but Iggy has been angry and grumpy about it all day.
Stay safe everyone. Liz, good thoughts for Zoe and hoping the mouth heals soon.

Thanks for the start Karen.
Kathy I heard Sally is only moving 2MPH.That will make it worse.Thanks for the good wishes on PT.
Karen No news yet on PT but they are only open Mon,Wed and Fri.Knee still hurts but it seems like the foot is fine now.It got up to 90 briefly this afternoon but mornings have been pleasant.Cloudy and 70's with a good breeze but then humidity rears its ugly head and there goes that.Nothing from the fires thank goodness.I'm glad your tire was just a little low.
Chele I am happy you are off the drops and anti-inflammatory. Oh no on the water not shutting off. I hope Iggy's mood improves.It is inconvenient to be without water.Hope you can get it fixed soon.

Chele, glad you can stop some meds..wasn't one upsetting your stomach?
Becky, weird how parts take turns hurting.
yesterday was ok have had aching lower teeth at night ...kind of goes with tmj set off my ear clog, sometimes neck position and I read on pillows too long. Hard to sleep last night.there goes another thing I like to do. So Instead of cuddling Micki with coffee this morning, I got up. Bah!
He had his fructosamine test..sort of like AC1 but different substance and shows only two week average. Last time it was way too low and changed him from 5 to 4 units vetsulin. Today 20 points over the good range of their number scale( up 275), so now we are at 4 1/2 and another test in two. Good thing insurance covers tests.
he got a little walk when we got back. I need to do another about now. He could lose some weight. Me...hahah.
cleaned up the garage. aGAIN so I can get to shelves. Too much paper stuff being stored for next shortage...saw that paper towels were running out in some places this week.
steak and baked potato tonight...boy is beef costing more!
