Mornin ladies
Yes Leslie's home, hurting of course. Sorry I didn't get back to u gals but I was so tired and work was so buy I fell asleep missing to calls and I have the ear piece so it's loud LOL. We're all glad it's over and now the wait, but the surgeon said it all went well so that's good to me too. Marty's going to work today and I made plan with my HS GF's for lunch, but she can call if she needs me, but right now she's walking OK and resting alot well I don't want to feel guilty so I'm justifying going out. Did I succeed???
Lori u always astound me I never thought to give u a name so u could see pics. I'm glad u did cu there were a lot of people there. But u did miss <what usually happens at an Italian wedding somewhere> There was a small fight towards the end and the groom broke his arm, And their honeymoon is on an island surrounded by water and he's in a cast.
Oh its been quiet in here or did I miss pages, that happens sometimes. Well our weather has rain and warmish for a week or so. My grandDD is graduating today, I can't believe that one---I just wish we had a really good connection Oh we're good but maybe cuz I met her when she was 5 we didn't connect as well. I have to get them from the start otherwise it doesn't work as well. But she is close to my DD and Joey so that's good. Well Joey told me he hasn't kissed a girl yet. Jeez his reason is first they are friends and he doesn't want to loose afriend and doesn't want to seem to forward.How could u possibly be his age and not kissed someone yet...yes I already asked himif he likes boys, but he said just to hang out with, but he likes girls. Now I have to teach him to be promiscuous, my work is never done. Leslie would have a fit. LOL I won't.
Well work is calling and I have to start getting ready .Yes this early.

Jazzy, no results yet. What the heck is going on with our weather, it's 31 here this morning!!! Glad you are healing well and still so glad it was just a wart.
NM, I hope you can figure something out about staff not showing up for the classes. I wouldn't think they would want to give them time off with no pay, as I suspect you need them at work!
Cami no, there is no need to feel guilty. Isn't Joey home? I thought he was out of school. Can you tell us exactly what the surgery consisted of? Was it a hysterectomy? Oh my, on the groom breaking his arm, yikes. Was he acting to fool! Or was it because of the fight? And what was the fight about? Inquiring minds want to know!
Have to make a 5 hour round trip to pick up some MMJ. My card expires Sunday and new one is $400. I have a stock pile of the RSO oil for DH, they will will give me 40 more capsules. One capsule lasts him 3 days and then with what I have, should be enough to last him almost a year! We will be leaving Wednesday morning.

Cami, we discovered Gordy had, uh, "blossomed" when (while I was out of town), Bob came home from work and found Gordy & his first g.f. on the couch--and he promptly called the girl's mom (who recently passed away after a 4-yr bout with pancreatic cancer) for permission to write her a 'script for the Pill. Kids these days either casually hook up (not Gordy) or are quickly "joined at the hip" (as he was for 3 yrs with g.f. #1 and even more seriously with his current squeeze Leslie--with whom he's moving into a bigger apt. next month and I hope will eventually be more than a significant other).
WF had the first fresh wild Copper River salmon of the season yesterday--so with it I had the last of the Coravin-ed bottle of 2105 Bogle Pinot Noir. Also bought some more flavored unspiked, unsweetened LaCroix "Curaté" seltzers: blackberry-cucumber, pineapple-strawberry, and my fave cherry-lime.
Had an iced skim mocha yesterday, through a straw, with my Invisalign in--but (thinking the straw was protective) neglected to take it out & rinse it (and my mouth) afterward. As a result, even after several brushing with Dawn and a soak in Invisalign cleaning crystals, there are still a couple of opaque areas in the creases around the molars. Oops. So nothing but clear colorless fluids unless I can immediately rinse my mouth & clean the aligner afterwards.

Made it through another round of chemo. I talked with the chemo nurse about the new plan for maybe a lumpectomy and SBRT. She agreed it would be a good move! We went on a walk by the river yesterday. Trying to find a place to walk that is a bit cooler now that the temps are getting up there. We did see one gator
Having a steak tonight with a decent merlot. I like to clelbrate getting through a chemo infusion!
Have a great Memorial Day weekend!!!!

Sandy, I'm confused at with whom Gordy was on the couch with. You say GF #1. Where does Leslie fall into this? Is she #1?
JCS, that's not too bad an alligator to run into! So are you doing treatment first, then surgery and radiation? What is SBRT, I assume some sort of radiation.
Well, I drove all of 6 hours today, thinking my MMJ card expired on the 27, Sunday. They were even holding my stuff for me. I get there, and my card expired on the 22. Can we say DUMB A$$? I was soooooo pissed at myself!

Tonight at our local Indian restaurant, a split of Jaume Serra Cristallino Brut Cava (too full for Madras coffee or masala tea afterwards--had to catch the bus home ahead of the storm that's brewing).

Goldie - If I can past the next PET scan the MO will do surgery then rads. SBRT is stereotactic radiation. It is a strong beam of radiation aimed at only the tumor. We will do this in the lung where the BC has metastasized to after a lumpectomy. I still want to be cured and this is one way to maybe get that. Might still have to do some kind of chemo, but will get to take a mini break. That will be nice.
Sorry the card had expired! That must have been upsetting.
ChiSandy - you are such an adventurous eater!
0 -
JCS, it's not that I'm adventurous--it's that my parents exposed me to different cuisines when I was little (especially my dad, who rebelled against his kosher-home upbringing by teaching me to love raw oysters & clams and rare steak). Here in Chicago (at least on the North Side), it's an ethnic eater's paradise. The irony is that the average Londoner has spicy Indian food far more often than we Americans order out for Cantonese or pizza!
0 -
ChiSandy - Yeah, living in SC we do not have that many ethnic restaurants. The library I managed was (still is!) in the International Corridor. This area does have several ethnic grocery stores and restaurants. I have tried Vietnamese, Thai, and Spanish (non-chain). There was a good Indian restaurant, but it closed recently. Really spicy food used to not work for me, but things have changed since chemo. Having Fort Jackson and the University of South Carolina close by does bring in more people from other countries so we are changing some in what is offered in the food world.

Good Morning, Loungettes!Sadie and I had a lovely sleep in until almost 7 ayem! Since then I've gotten a couple loads of laundry done, and a good start on a deep cleaning in the kitchen, and even a start on getting the summer/winter clothes switch over started. If I can keep up the momentum I'll do really well today! Hoping to get a lot done around the house this weekend. I should even be able to get some yard and garden work done if the weather holds!Yeah, finally! Sadie is just in 7th heaven supervising and commenting every time someone in the neighborhood does something outside, which has been pretty steady on such a pretty day.
Cammy Cat--I'm glad Leslie is home, sorry she's hurting. Glad the surgeon said all went well. And you talking about teaching Joey to be promiscuous, so funny!!
Goldie--There is a policy at work that staff can be disciplined for not attending mandatory education, but it hasn't been enforced in ages.So, my next step is to educate the staff to the existence of the policy, and submit names of staff not attending to the Director of Nurses. The staff can be made to come in on their own time according to the policy but no one wants that to happen. Still, the staff have to make SOME effort!Anyway, the staff that didcome seemed to have a good time, and I have some ideas for the next one.
Chi--The cherry-lime seltzer sounds very yummy!I love Cherry-Lime flavor. How long do you wear each Invasalign device? Will you have to live with the discoloration very long? It sounds like a lot of work and bother, I hope it's worth it.
Librarian--Wow, good sized gator, there!Looks like he doesn't move very fast, though.
Goldie--oh my goodness, what a predicament! Are you going to renew the card or let it go for a while?
Librarian--praying that you can get the cure you want.It's about time a cure was possible for at least some of us!

Hi ladies- hope everyone is having a good start to the long weekend. It sounds like it!
I started my weekend off by meeting a friend at a lovely spot in town I have not been to in a long time, maybe since I moved here in the 1990s. It is down in the valley and is also a lavendar farm, and they make amazing skin care products I have bought in other places. They have renovated the place and a yoga friend invited me to go there for breakfast. I had the BEST eggs benedict with fresh herbs but more importantly, a blood mary to go with it. I was thinking about that blood mary all week. We went to their lovely gift shop after and I bought a few things there and then was on my way. Part two of today is a spa treatment for a long overdue massage coming up in a couple hours.
Tomorrow I am spending the afternoon with a friend who had some pretty big surgery the week before last, and is ready for company. Monday I may hit the closer hot springs for the afternoon if it is not windy. The weather is amazing today, but the winds may return tomorrow....
Chi- I am glad you were on top of things when you found Gordie and his first GF getting closer. I remember my grandmother asking me as a teenager what young people do when sex comes up? I told her I knew that it was important to wait and that getting my college education was key before I had a baby. I hope Gordie and Leslie are doing great.
NM- you have a long weekend to enjoy with Miss Sadie? When does she get to go swimming, water still to cold? I remember being in Maine the summer I lived there and the ocean and the lakes were FREEZING. The coldest water I was ever in was in Nova Scotia in the summer one time. If that is what you want to call summer. I love that Sadie likes being in the yard with you and supervising......
Cami- how is Leslie and how was your outing? I hope Leslie is feeling better and the family can exhale for a bit? And how is Joey?
JCS- I had some more advanced radiation treatment for my primary rads back in 2012-2013. What I learned at that time is there were so many newer cutting edge treatments for targeted radiation coming on line and many are main stream now. including the brachytherapy I had done in 2013. Mine was considered experimental at the time, and I had to go out of state to AZ for it, but never have regretted the decision. I hope you can get the treatment that will be best for zapping the cancer and without too much impact to surrounding tissue.
Anyone having some BBQ this weekend?

JCS, by "Spanish" do you mean Mexican/Tex-Mex, Argentinian grill, Peruvian, Cuban, or actual Spanish? I am not aware of any "chains" of Spanish restaurants. (Spanish is very different from New World Latino cuisine--not at all spicy, relies far less (if at all) on beans, and when rice is used (and it's short-grain, not the ubiquitous long-grain kind) it's either as a filler in morçilla (pig's blood sausage) or the base for paella. There are plenty of Spanish "tapas" restaurants, but no chains. There is a mini-chain of Cuban restaurants here called "90 Miles;" and there are several Argentinian open-flame beef-centric grill places (but no chains of which I know). Of course, there are two national chains of Brazilian (Poruguese, not Spanish-influenced) "churrascarias," or all-you-can-eat grilled meat restaurants (the waiters come around with various meats on skewers and you turn your coaster to the green side for "keep it coming" or the red for "stick a fork in me, I'm done...at least for now"). One wag said "churrascaria" is Portuguese for "meat storm." Those chains are Texas de Brasil and Fogo de Chao. In Columbia do you have any restaurants specializing in Carolina "low-country" food, or are you too far inland and uphill? We have a great one here, Big Jones, that has won national awards (their shrimp & grits are to die for...and "from," if you have a heart condition & overindulge).
Kim, I wear each aligner tray for two weeks. (I'm doing only the uppers, since my lowers have a fixed single-tooth bridge and crowns, don't affect my bite, aren't as visible, and aren't going anywhere). I am scheduled to do 7 trays in all, but I expect it will take much longer, as my periodontal ligaments have very stubborn "muscle memory" and are more resistant to letting my teeth move without regressing than if I were younger &/or weren't on Prolia. Even if I have the tray out for only half an hour, it feels very tight the first 10 minutes after I put it back in. I will switch to aligner #4 Tuesday night; and two weeks thereafter I see my orthodontist, who will give me #s 5, 6, & 7. We'll take it from there (I suspect I will likely do at least 12 trays, then maybe some "refinement" aligners to slow movement down. Then 2 years of a clear more rigid retainer to wear on the same schedule, followed by wearing it nightly for the rest of my life (or for as long as I still have teeth).
I am supposed to have them in a total of 20-23 hours/day (the longer the better, 22 hrs being optimal), taking them out to eat or drink anything but clear cool water or seltzer (my ortho says white wine or champagne is fine, and tepid-to-iced coffee or tea through a straw--but even that causes yellowing); and then cleaning them & my teeth afterward, before putting them back in. It's not as challenging as I thought it might be--but I haven't met with the bariatrician yet, who may insist I eat 6 small rather than 2-3 normal meals a day. (Not getting bariatric surgery, though--that's a bridge too far). The yellowing isn't really noticeable except around the outer edges of the molars, and my teeth's natural color is on the yellow side anyway. We discussed bleaching (which I'd tried about 15 yrs ago), but my enamel isn't strong enough to prevent sensitivity from it. (Some orthodontists begin Invisalign treatment with a UV-bleaching session first). I am holding on to the old aligner trays in case I have to go back a week or two--such as if I need another root canal or touchup and my teeth hurt for awhile after. I will try to bleach the old trays periodically in 50/50 peroxide/water, or maybe buy something like Retainer Brite that supposedly works better than the Invisalign branded cleaning crystals.

Would love to grill this weekend--but the weather gods have other ideas.

We have LOTS of low country type restaurants. Lots of boiled and fried entrees with grits, etc. The craze here is the farm to table restaurant. That and fancy, flavored mixed drinks. Makes for an interesting evening. We do have one of those skewer restaurants here, but I have not been. There are a couple of good tapas places, but the small, local Restaurants in my area are Cuban and Mexican. I may do some BBQ chicken tomorrow, but it is just DH and me so may not do too much.

Mornin' ladies,
Wow I thought I was here yesterday,
Lori Leslie had some stupid growth on her ovary so they went in vaginally annd got it and then just a D/C. It wasn't a big thing but the test before came back inconclusive for whatever this thing is so that's why the wait, and Joey doesn't get out of school til June 10th, so again we wait. OK now if ur MJ card already expired didn't u just renew it or is it a big deal. 5 hours u had to drive,, I know u live outside of places but it always seems ur so far. BTW ur weather sounds crazier than ours.
JC I like the way u celebrate getting chemo, it's the best way. Rads have changed so much over the years, being much better and zeroing in on exact places such a good thing <<<prayers>>> Jazzy can explain thin gs so much better than I.
Jazzy u have a great weekend planned, but then u always come up withso much. U live in an area that seems to offer so many of the things u enjoy. U settled in the right place. But this year ur weather sounded a little crazy too for a while. I hope u get to do everythin g this weekend.
Kim u have a fun weekend planned---WORK---around the house, I know things have to get done and u have the extra time this weekend but I would enjoy doing things more if I had a Sadie to do it with,U know I bet u'll have more people at these meetings than u thought. When people start talking about how interesting u make things and ur knowledge that might change their minds.
Sandy U do live in an area loaded with restaurants of all different ethnic styles. Well we have loads of restaurants here but pretty much all the same as most suburbs. When u have a taste for something u pretty much have ur pick. Wow Gordy sounds like when he picks a girl he is loyal to her. What a nice trait he has See I just know boys from my experiences since I was 12 they always wanted to touch stuff and saying no they just left. The first real boyfiend I had stuck around for a while <I was 16> and we had fun but as soon as he put his tongue in mymouth and I thought I'd get pregnant and cried like crazy, he left me. But he was the one till a few yrs. ago <he died> bought me a birthday present every yr. most of my life Hey I was Catholic and scared stiff. Anyway when u describe some dishes, I never heard of, it's fun.
Have a fun weekend everyone, oh I had a great time with my GF's we don;t get together often enough and we always say we can't go so long, yet we do.
LUBS U ALL

Jazzy, sounds you are having a lovely weekend.
NM, I know you and Sadie will have a good weekend, hoping you can get some gardening in.
Cami, the drive was 5 hours round trip, not like to my doctor which is 8 hour round trip. So this thing they took out of Leslie was benign? Most of the kids here are already out of school.
I did BBQ yesterday. Ribs, homemade bbq sauce, baked potatoes butter, sour cream and garlic chives from the garden, corn on the cobb and garlic toast with cheese. Got enough left over for today. So working out in the garden.

Happy Funday Sunday. About 10 hot air balloons up near my house today. This one came the closest

Good Morning, Loungettes!Sadia and I are having a very lazy ayem so far.Didn't get up until almost 9 ayem! Needless to say we haven't accomplished much yet today. Notsure where I'm going to rustle up any ambition today, but need to. Probably have to do the 5 minute timer thing. And be jealous of Silly Sadie who is sound asleep on the ottoman, again!
Jazzy--that lunch and little shopping trip sounds wounderful! That must have been some Bloody Mary to have you thinking about it all week! This spring it is still too cold for swimming. Some years it is warm enough by now. The ocean stays cold all year round, the gulf stream is too far off shore to give us warm water, but the lakes and ponds will warm up during the summer. Except the cold spring fed ones, they only warm up on the very top! And yes, we have the long weekend and are very happy for it!
Chi--Wow, that's quite the program with the Invisalign.I did not realize there was a lifelong follow up component. And then add in the whitening and it really is a lot of work!
Librarian--there are a few farm to table restaurants here, they pop up starting this time of year. No menus at most of them, you get what they get and cook. I haven't tried one yet, but I want to.
Cammy Cat--aww, pretty fuzzy kitty!Sadie and I are praying for a B9 biopsy report for Leslie. Thanks for the vote of confidence that attendance will pick up at the education stuff at work! Did you really think you would get pregnant from a boy putting his tongue in your mouth? Things sure are different with kindergarten kids being taught sex ed and gender equality and non-binary gender sensitivity right along with reading and writing. The world sure has changed, hasn't it?
GREAT DOTD!!!
Goldie--hoping for some gardening tomorrow. It should be partly sunny and warm, so I am hopeful!
Jazzy--love the hot air balloons!

With my sauteed soft-shell crab last night, a small flute of Mumm Napa 2013 "Staff Pick" Sparkling Chardonnay. If I don't go out to see a friend perform (and eat at the venue), then I may have some more of it with grilled salmon.

Good Morning, Loungettes!Happy Memorial Day!Thoughts and prayers for all who gave the ultimate sacrifice and their families. Sadie and I are going to putter around the house today. Got the winter clothes put away and the summer clothes out yesterday. Got rid of a lot of clothes--not the right size, don't really like to wear, etc.Got a big bag to take for donation. Sadie was not impressed with the process in which I was sorting clothes while just about nekkid so I could immediately try on anything I was questioning and sulked in the hallway most of the afternoon!
Chi--ah, crab, so yummy!
Remember the Maine
- 40 ml Hudson Manhattan Rye

Hi ladies- hope your long weekend is going well. Last day off for us worker bees and short week to do all the same work we have to do! I was on the fence about what to do today, stay in town or take a trip up to the closer hot springs. Decided to stay in town as I really want to get a bike ride in today and plan go to in a few hours to get some exercise in.
We had some strong weather move through here yesterday. The forecast was for high winds in the afternoon, but it brought some rain but also some severe weather to the state. New Mexico had 11 tornadoes along the eastern border of the state, plus some hail and high wind damage. I was visiting some friends yesterday when it came through ABQ and did not like the look of the sky on the way home (skies have a "look to them" when tornadoes are a possibility). Being near the mountains, we have less risk of them (they need flat to form) but there have been some in this area too. There have been so many tornadoes this May in the midwest and a few in the Rocky Mountain area. No problems at the house, yard got a bit of moisture.
Goldie- I saw on FB you are now looking to sell your biz and your property. I wish you the best and hope you find the perfect place to move to once you sell.
NM- I just took six bags to donations last weekend. I usually end up doing a bigger yearly purge as the seasons change and also found things that don't fit and are too old to take to consignment. I have a bit more to finish up on that front. I too try things on and even sometimes wear them one more time before they go. I can imagine Sadie looking at you like "mama what you doing?"
Cami- I am sorry to hear Les had a problem on her ovary and hope it was nothing serious. My guess is you are waiting on some final results from that. In your pocket sister as you all wait.....
Wishing everyone a peaceful day of remembrance on Memorial Day.

Mornin ladies,
Wow quiet in here.
Lori I still think it's a long way. And yes we;re waiting to make sure it's benign that's what takes so long, especilly with a holiday weekend. And what u made for dinner sounded yummy to me, really yummy.
Kim u accomplished a lot in a day. Going thru clothes and trying them on takes forever. Poor Sadie, she's patient for a lot of things. That's a big job, Of course I used to do it but now I need help so it really doesn't get don---everything is all in 2 closets and a lot still have tags on them. Joey usually picks something out for me to wear <when I have to go somewhere different> and then I don't even member buying it.Oh well.
Seems like everyone is busy this weekend and that's great. My cousins might come over today, but not sure, I talked to them yesterday---we'll see.
And yes Kim I really thought that, but u have to remember we were taught just holding hands could lead u into a problem with a boy---but they never said how much...even tho I did kiss a boy young it was in front of all the kids cu it was a game and we mostly just LOLed, but I don't tell that part of the story. Kids today know it all at a young age but I think I should help Joey cuz he always seems like he doesn't have a clue and I'd hate for him to get a girl pregnant. I'm sure he knows more but teaching kids no I don't know what they teach in school, they should all be smart, but u still hear of so many girls getting pregnant and that just shouldn't happen nowadays.
Oh I see this commercial with Rita spritz in a can and that looks so so good for the summer. I have to try it sometime this summer. U know I don't remember even drinking th champagne at the wedding for a toast but I do member everyone saying how good it was.
Have a great day.

Good Morning, Loungettes!Happy Twofer Tuesday! I finally got some yard work done yesterday, but still to damp to do very much.I did top off the raised bed and got the tomatoes, basil, and some dill planted, and, of course, the weather guessers are talking about frost in places last night, and it's all of 39 degrees outside.No wonder Silly Sadie burrowed under the covers last night!
Cammie Cat--that kitty and I would get along very well in the ayems!
Jazzy-Sadie and I had a nice weekend. I didn't get everything done I wanted to, but I did get some done and am pleased with that. I can believe the sky had a "look" when tornadoes are possible, the sky here has a "look" when thunderstorms or heavy snow is coming. Sadie was definitely giving me the "WHAT are you DOING?" look before moving out into the hallway and ignoring me.I love the way she "ignores" me while staying within line of sight! I've got to admit it feels odd to be putting stuff aside clothesthat are still almost new and still wearable, but don't fit (I've lost a bit of weight!) or that I just don't like or want to wear!It feels a bit wasteful, but I keep telling myself that I'm not throwing the clothes away, so it's ok to make room for better clothes.Still, a bit of a new experience for me, since I was brought up to wear clothes until they wore out or absolutely did not fit anymore, and to buy "a little big" so they "would last".The things we learn about ourselves as we age!
Cammy--Going through a closet is a big job.Maybe someone could help you do 5 or 10 items at a time, or 10 or 15 minutes at a time? I use the time method a lot--work on something for 5 or 10 or 15 minutes, then play on the computer or with Sadie for 15 or 30 minutes, rinse and repeat.It's amazing how much can get done in just 5 minutes if I just get started! OK, I can see where you would thing kissing would get you pregnant, given that kind of education!I remember some pretty graphic (for the time) film strips about male and female anatomy, menstruation, and what intercourse was (that was the word used, "intercourse," never used the word "sex" except when referring to being male or female) in 6th grade health class. I don't remember much in the way of details except for the rather elderly lady who taught the class very carefully covered up the classroom door window and closed all the blinds before showing the film. There was lots and lots of twittering going on that day!
Jazzy--love the steel drums!

Well Holiday weekend is over. Altho really makes no difference with us. Been busy getting stuff to the toy hauler, to go camping. It just sucks that it's so far away. Well, not in distance, just the amount of time it takes to get there, a half hour.
NM, I chuckled at you trying your clothes on whilst Sadie watched. She probably didn't want you getting rid of anything that she thought you looked nice in. Hope you got out in the garden. Ahhhhh, you did.
Jazzy, we haven't had any moisture, but the wind has been horrible and still chilly in the morning. Pellet stove came on this morning.
Cami, that Joey is something else, picking out something for you wear. Ha ha, kissing a boy in front of others. Were you playing spin the bottle?
My son is now in the hospital. He stays with an older man who has Cerebal Palsy, he was in the kitchen and heard Jason fall. Went to check on him, he was unconsious and shaking. He went to neighbors to get help, when they got back he was back in bed and slurring his words. He remembers nothing. Went to Urgent care yesterday, they did blood work and CT. Then admitted him to the hospital. Now they want to do EEG and EKG. But he feels fine.
One more trip out to take more stuff to the toy hauler and then out of here early in the morning.

Hello all! Ready for another 100 degree day. Really do not enjoy this unrelenting heat This early in the summer.Good news is it is not that humid so you can still breath while sweating! Today I will have lunch with a friend and meet her new DIL. Then my kids come for dinner. Got the house clean yesterday and caught up the laundry. Just a few days until we head to the beach. Really looking forward to being lazy and doing some porch sitting.
Usually when I clean out my closet, the clothes ride around in my car for weeks. Goldie-That is scary about your son. Hope all is well with him and it is not a sign of something worse. I wish I could grow vegetables. Tried tomatoes, but no luck. I get distracted and forget to water, etc.
I do remember what the skies would look like before a bad storm or tornado. Seems like too many tornados this year than before. Take care, but enjoy what you can!

Goldie - I am so sorry about your son. What a year this has been for your family. Hugs sister.
It's snowing in the Rockies again up here in northern NM. It's cold again here & think they are right this will be a cold summer 😱
