Gahhh, I always forget about them!
boofae, enjoy the pub night! I think you’re ready for one. 
Ugghh, thanks for the reminder that I need to give my rain gutters a clean! Those things are awful and I have a ton of them thanks to living among the Douglas firs. 
Hope the mowin’ and blowin’ went well for you today. And I’ll add my wishes to swampy’s for a successful transition for your mom back home.
wet one, I hope Ariel’s owie heals fast. Poor girl!
herald, I’m so glad Lily (N.O.L.) is home, safe and sound.
Glad you got a good night’s sleep, red. Nice to be back in your own bed, I’m sure. And sorry you had to bathe your little sweetie for rolling in some yuck. Ollie loves to do that, too. Asshole. 
Lily, I hope the medical concerns for you and your lovely wife are soon in the rear view mirror.
FCM, I’ll add my good birthday wishes for Ziva. I hope you have her for some time to come.
Nut, I’m glad you have the health care system you do. It gives we Americans an example of how much better things can be, if we just strive. Your dentist’s exterior office notwithstanding.
JtC, Harry is fortunate to have you and Hubs as his neighbors. It will probably take awhile for the shock to wear off. He’ll really need you then.
metal mouse, I think we’re having the same dinner. 
Only I like to scoop cottage cheese onto my potato chips in the hope of adding protein and making it a more healthful < chortle > meal.
Late entry: JtC, I love Jolene and GG stories! Thanks for sharing this one!
I was rudely productive today! Sorted through some papers I needed to get to, then went out and trimmed a bunch of shrubbery and capped off this excessive busy-ness with finishing up the mowing I needed to do. Had a smug mug of tea to celebrate when all was done.
The rest of the week is going to be unpleasantly hot, so I was working against this deadline. Sunday will be close to 100F. (!!!) Lots of indoor chores to be done while I wait for the weather to become sane again.
Off to scare up the sammich and chips for dinner and concoct Ollie’s evening gruel. Have great nights, all!
