Death Valley temperature rises to 54.4C/129.9f– possibly the hottest ever reliably recorded

I have lived through three days of the most horrible kind of hell, and for the first time in about 51 years, I don't have a horse. My mare passed an hour and a half ago, and I was with her. She died i

Went to see the surgeon today... he says he is willing to try reattachment if I get through a complete MRI... he needs that first. He also informed me I had two tendons detached, not one, which really

Well this way you got out of the house and to go for a drive.

I somehow suspect that, with the smoke and the ash, not to mention the pandemic, the last thing Albert really wanted to do today was to leave the house...

Today has been cloudy, with rain since late morning, and it's still raining with less than an hour and half to go before midnight. The rain has't been too heavy - I suppose it was what could be termed a soft day.

I had a hospital appointment this afternoon. What's known as a diabetic retina scan. They've done one every year since I was diagnosed, as Type 2 diabetes, if untreated, can lead to eye damage. They've not turned up any damage so far in previous tests, but I won't get the results from this one until about two weeks time.

One good thing about the dull day was that I didn't have to wait the usual three hours before I could drive home. They put drops in my eyes to make the pupils really wide, and that can make it difficult to see for a while, even with sunglasses on. The dull day meant that my eyes were able to function properly after about an hour. :yes:

I'm reading a book called "The Extraordinaries", by TJ Klune. A nerdy, very un-extraordinary guy named Nick writes fan fiction stories about superheroes. Until he meets Shadow Star, his town's most famous superhuman (and Nick's secret crush). Suddenly, Nick doesn't want to just write about superheroes; he wants to LIVE as one of them.

I'm also writing a short story about a young man who meets a boy with autism/Asperger's Syndrome. The "special" boy believes that he's actually The Little Prince, from Asteroid B-612.

Ugh polishing is a lot harder than I thought. My arms ache and my eyes and throat are itching. Lot of sweat too 💪

I suppose it all depends on what it is you are polishing... :whistle:
