Good Morning GFY
 

Morning all.

Tala is on her way back east now, so I'll be doing the thread for a few days.

It's damn hot here today, and for the first time I see some sort of humidex advisory warning. Apparently, with the humidity today the temp. here is comparable to 44 C. You don't wanna know what that is in F. Ug.


Today's definition:

good morning CD.... nice to see you making this thread, though temporarily.

how you been doing? :)

good morning

Always good here.

Even when things suck, life is good with me. Always. :D

good morning everyone :)

A few weeks ago the beaches were all closed, or so I heard. The lakes and rivers are all too high from all the rain.

I always liked Patricia beach. Grand beach rocks of course, but Patricia is just a bit more shall we say, private? :winkwink:

Have a good day whatever you do. :thumbsup

I often have a big sneezing fit in the morning. I hear you, any day you're not suffering allergies is a good day.

for the record, when I sneeze I commit to it 100%. None of this holding it back or suppressing it like a lil' girl. I rattle windows when I let fly.

powersneeze. :D

Now it's better than good. :D

good to hear CD....good to hear :)
