Chuck found water on the floor by the inside A/C unit around 5.30p yesterday; He put towels down to absorb it. Called the A/C guy at 6p, told him about the water & said to shut it off. Waited til the sun went down; the house faces west; and it really gets hot in here. By 8.30p outside temps dropped to 88 from 100; then we shut it off. Some inside pipe that conduits cool air onto the coil was completely plugged with debris & no i don’t know how, we change filters about every 2 weeks. Now that everything’s… Read more »

Kitty had a cat who LOVED those things; she found about a gazillion of them when she moved the fridge for cleaning 😂

Good morning. 💛 Day 3 of our heat wave here in PA. (3 more to go) 😣 Partly cloudy with scattered showers. Thunderstorms in forecast for late afternoon. High temperature 93° ….feels like 100+. Last night thunderstorms arrived at dinner time. ⚡ Lightning very close and loud thunder. Glad for a simple meal and we used plastic utensils. (always if thunderstorms in area) Who wants to hold a metal fork with lightening close? Thinking of Darlene and hope she is doing better. 🙏 Thanks for update Chris. Today is International Cat Day: Celebrated globally to honor cats, raise awareness for… Read more »

International Cat Day! DB’s cat is huge (compared to Arya) and loves it when I come over, because I am more likely to pet him than DB is.

So sorry you did not sleep well last night. Maybe you were over tired from all the work you did yesterday. I hope you can catch up on your sleep and went back to bed. If not, you need to have a restful day.
Those wildfires sure seem scary. Driving on a highway with wildfire and no place to turn around.😫
Take care Gwen 💜

Another Day in NC and with DB. Didn’t do as much as I had hoped (the story of these visits). We packed up 4 boxes of fossils and mineral specimens to give to the local Gem & Mineral Museum tomorrow, where DB used to volunteer. He has much more but he doesn’t want to overwhelm them at any tone time. My thought is just pack it all up and let them worry about it. Unfortunately, he only wants to deliver these on Sat when the guy he really trusts is there, so no more of that for this trip out… Read more »

Thanks for checking in with us Chris. ♥ Donations will be appreciated. Good job sis!!
Can you pack up more boxes of fossils and mineral specimens for DB to deliver later? Perhaps call the person DB trusts from museum pick them up? At least if they are packed up in boxes…they will be ready to go. Sorry this is not working out so well.
Have a nice day and enjoy Pizza with DB. 🍕

Update on Rick: Rick’s incredibly picky about food and is not eating as much as he should be. Chuck said we’ll have to fatten him up, since his jeans are falling off. 😟 He’s able to grasp a glass of water with his right hand; still struggling a bit with walking; it’s only been 3 weeks. We have a walker here for him. Chuck will attend a class/PT session on Tues, then spend the night in a little apartment set aside for such. Rick’s being released from captivity on Weds! 🤸‍♀️🤸‍♀️ Everything he needs is on the main floor here… Read more »

Rick will be so happy to be home on Wednesday. Seems like a great plan with Chuck spending the night with him in the little apartment the hospital has set up. This way Chuck will have a good idea of his needs when he goes home.
I hope after three weeks of not smoking….he will stop. If not, perhaps doctors can prescribe a patch to help wean him off the cigs. Thanks heavens Rick is blessed with a wonderful brother ♥ and sister ♥ to help him through this difficult time. 💕
