I think you all look great . . .
. . . It's truly amazing when you get together with people you've been chatting with on line. Since you already know a lot about each other, it's more like a reunion than a first meeting. You just talk, and talk, and talk.
Although I definitely know what you mean, Anne. I've got a lot of ill-fitting clothes too and I refuse to buy anything expensive when I'm sort of in mid-loss-mode.
Okay . . . Laura . . . how about lunch in Truro someday (that's about half-way) . . . and don't we have another Nova Scotian, too?
About my Saturday . . . Luckily, we had a breeze and didn't get too much sun yesterday since I woke up with a really nasty migraine and couldn't stand any noise or any light and had to turn off my noisy dehumidifier and window A/C units. This morning, no headache
, so the noisy appliances can go back on. Good thing since the sun is back with a vengeance and the heat and humidity levels are going to be even worse than yesterday.
There's a lot to be said for electric baseboard heating -- it's very clean (almost no dust) and it's very quiet. Although it used to be about the most expensive method of heating, it isn't anymore because the price of oil is so high, plus all-electric houses are very well insulated and that actually reduces the costs of both heating and cooling (well, that's true if the house was built for electric heating; it doesn't make a good retrofit for an older house without a lot of additional expense). BUT -- I really miss central A/C -- the window units do the job, but they are sooooo noisy and sooooo ugly --
without a forced air system, though, that's about the only option.
Anyway . . . Good Morning everybody . . .
