We had them yesterday afternoon and last night. Lots and lots of rain.
Other places had it much worse.
Hoping he gets better soon.Surprisingly no, it started like a cold yesterday and i was expecting man flu but this morning he cannot move without vomiting and is constantly shivering. So he is lying on the bed with 2 nurses (cats) to keep him warm.
I dosed him up with smecta which he ejected a couple of minutes later.
Thanks, he is. I'm thinking it's a 24 hour thing, he is currently having a shower that may brighten him up.
That cat didn't look evil all the time. Most of the time, it just looked like a cat.
Morning rain followed by warm sun win.
My basil seedlings are love'n it!

Good morning and for me it is good.
And for @Wu Wei this. It seems that grizzlies are a little Teddy-like
Frontier myth vilified the California grizzly. Science tells a new story
The grizzly, a subspecies of brown bear, has long held a place in mainstream American myth as a dangerous, even bloodthirsty creature. Its scientific name, Ursus arctos horribilis, means “the horrible bear.” But that image is being challenged by a new set of studies that combine modern biochemical analysis, historical research and Indigenous knowledge to bring the story of the California grizzly from fiction to fact.''
...
In an even larger blow to the popular story of the vicious grizzly, the bones showed that before 1542, when the first Europeans arrived, the bears were only getting about 10 percent of their diet from preying on land animals. They were primarily herbivores, surviving on a varied diet of acorns, roots, berries, fish and occasionally larger prey such as deer.
...
“We coexisted in peace together here,” he added. “As long as we respected their space and they respected our space, there was almost a symbiotic relationship there between the Indigenous people and the grizzly.”
Farther north, the Yurok people also had a long history of coexistence with grizzlies. Tiana Williams-Claussen, director of the Yurok Tribe’s wildlife department, says that even their homes were designed with the bears in mind.
“We actually built our houses specifically with a small round doorway that they were too big to get through, so that you wouldn’t find them snacking on your salmon in the middle of the night,” she said.

Not winning.
Ares had a bad melt yesterday, and I'm still shook up. I have a stomach ache because I ate Sam's cooking last night.
I'm going to request a refund, I think.

We're getting morning sun followed by rain! It's like Bizarro world!
Good grief. You deserve a full refund.
I agree. I'm still trying to figure out where to lodge the complaint...
And now I've got a headache brewing, and I looked up the gym schedule to see when I can take the kids to the pool this evening(hoping to distract the young warlord from obsessing over the broken Toyota on the street) to see I can't do that, because they're going back to the schedule where they close at 4pm on the weekends.
Why in the world would they close down so early?

They have brain edema.......
Something like that...
They close at 2 on Sundays.
For the exorbitant price they charge, you'd think they'd be open longer on weekends...
For a moment, I thought that said "brain enema."
Sounds like it could be a useful procedure, actually.
That could be the problem with the gym management, too.
