It was a scorcher today, but it’s cooling off now - supposed to rain all night after midnight. I hope your day was good as well. I need to do some dishes, so I’ll see you later.

Thorn Wilde Posted July 17, 2019 Posted July 17, 2019 Morning, DiC. Yesterday was a not so great day, health-wise. Hoping for a better one today. And I hope you all have a good day! 3
Site Moderator Reader1810 Posted July 17, 2019 Site Moderator Posted July 17, 2019 Good morning DiCers. After days of hot weather, it looks like it’s going to rain all day, which would be okay if it cools things off for the next few while, but nope, the Weather Network is still showing high temps with T-storms in the forecast Friday through Sunday. Oh well, what can you do, eh? Have a great day everyone... 3

Site Moderator Reader1810 Posted July 17, 2019 Site Moderator Posted July 17, 2019 Okay, so a couple of mornings ago, I was woken up at 5 a.m. by a beeping noise that only got louder the longer it went on. And, just so you know, said beeping noise level seemed that much louder due to it being so early in the morning. Anyhoo, after a bit of brain-fogged scrambling, I managed to trace the beeping noise to the clock in my den - oops, hoping I didn’t wake the neighbours. It had been without batteries for quite a while, until the day before when I decided enough was enough and put new ones in making sure the ribbon guide was placed appropriately or else I’d never get that bottom one out. Pleased with my work, I put the clock back on the base of my lamp where it’s easily seen. Little did I know I activated the alarm function during the battery change process. Unfortunately, for me, I had no idea I’d done that - or how - so when the damned thing started beeping at indiscriminate times, all I could do to stop it was to rip the batteries out of it. Yep, I am so smart! Finally, today after carefully examining the clock, I found the alarm switch on the side of the clock. Yay me..or not. Should have found the alarm button sooner, I’m thinking... 1 1 3

Popular Post Thorn Wilde Posted July 18, 2019 Popular Post Posted July 18, 2019 Evening, all! Hope you're all well. Despite feeling not great today either I went for a run and now I feel much better. So yay! Exercise helps, apparently. Who'd have thought? 4 2

Defiance19 Posted July 18, 2019 Posted July 18, 2019 Well, that was some storm. Still hear thunder rumbling overhead but no boom! Anyway, I have an idea for the prompts tickling my brain so I’m off to see how well it translates. Stay well, all of you. ‘night! 4
