How are you all today? I'm okay, just chilling.
David, good luck on that interview, pal!
GulfBreezer, good luck at those baseball games. I wish it was warmer than it is. Other than the humid/muggy part.
Well, I better get. Hello to everyone that I missed this am, and I'll be back.

I have to make this quick...I can only tie up the phone line for about an hour...and I getting close to that limit (FYI...I'm now at home...and we have limited time surfin the net).

I just wanted to check in and to see the wonderful new look that the admins are raving about.

Oh yea...can't forget...looks like I was passed up by Luis...way to go wxbuddy.

Good Morning!

And a FINE ONE it is 8-)

WHEW! Hard to believe that just 7 days ago, we had the wood stove burning, wearing sweat shirts with a lite jacket, yesterday, we fired up the A/C :o High of 84° at the house, 84° doesn't sound that warm but up here, where were closer to the sun

"LOL!" I've actually heard ppl say that :roll:

, when it hits the 80's here, it's almost HOT :o Seriously, being up this high, the UV rays ARE stronger, funny, ppl come up here from Phoenix and Tucson in the summer to escape the heat, when they get out of their car, you can hear them RANT! ANYWAYS, they (tourists) go home with a BAD sunburn, the UV rays like I said, are much stronger, it also affects the vegetation, ppl from the Valley will plant stuff at their summer cabins and cannot figure out why the same stuff they plant in the Valley burns to a crisp up here :roll:

Sorry I didn't stay in chat that long last night, we were soooo busy with yard work that by the time I looked at the clock, it was LATE and I hadn't started the BBQ, "Time flies when your having fun!" :roll:

Well folks, I need to scoot, OH....any news on Raine and Dakota?? I'm very worried! HEY.....make it a GREAT day at His house would ya???

Morning everyone! How is everyone? Cloudy and foggy here this morning. Darla is already off to work again. I think she is going to run herself to death -- never still for a minute.

Everyone have a great Sunday,
Garrett :multi:

GulfBreezer · #807 Postby **GulfBreezer** » Sun May 18, 2003 9:50 am

Good Morning everyone!! Happy Sunday!

The boys played great in their baseball games yesterday! I was at the ball park for 11 hours!! The final All-Star team will be announced Monday night.

Haven't been outside yet, but it looks like another hot one! I have plans to clean this house today...........YUCK! I need a maid!! Seems like evrytime I clean it, it only stays that way for a day or so..........such wasted energy!

Shannon, Physic and Calculus?? YUCK, I wish you the best on both of those!! What are you majoring in?

Garrett, bear with me on the books, I am getting them ready today but this is graduation week, so I will get them to you as soon as I possibly can.

Guess I had better get busy...........times-a-wastin!

Ciao,
Sandi 8-)

Afternoon peeps,

Just hanging out at home today, waiting for the storms to pop up... Hopefully anyway :roll:

It is very hot and muggy down here today... YUCK.

David I pray that the interview goes well for you

Jeremy so nice to read your bio and get to know you

Shannon, best of luck with those exams my friend, I will be thinking about you and praying for you

Sandi... you echo my sentiments exactly, a clean house lasts for a few hours, and I too need a maid! I am seriously thinking about turfing all the flatware and crockery in my house and going disposable, at least that way I dont have to wash it :lol:

Enjoy your Sunday all

therock1811 · #811 Postby **therock1811** » Sun May 18, 2003 2:12 pm

Thanks Amanzi! I'm only glad to do it.
Hey did you read my posts in the USA Wx forum?
Everyone else is well, I hope!
David, how'd the interview go? Suspense is building I'm certain.
Shannon, best of luck tomorrow! Lucky me, our school has a policy in effect where if you're in thruout state tests and the last 3 days of the yr., you don't have to take exams! YAHOO!
Well, that's it for now. C ya,
Jeremy

Good Luck, David!!! Praying for 'ya, Buddy!

Garrett, here's another that's gonna get those books
out to you, this week! I was going to do it after the
dentist appointment, Friday evening, and, I ended up
taking one of my rare afternoon naps! Needless to say,
when I awakened, the post office was closed...

Everyone have a great evening!

#813 Postby **wx247** » Sun May 18, 2003 5:21 pm

Breeze...no problem! I am just glad you are donating. It is the thought the counts. Besides... you probably needed the nap after going to the dentist. :o Sorry I was in the hammock or I would have let you borrow it!

The sun never did come out today like promised. :grr:

But I can forgive the weatherman because at least it didn't rain. Darla should be home any minute. Yay!

Maybe we can eat a meal together this weekend.

breeze · #814 Postby **breeze** » Sun May 18, 2003 7:46 pm

I swept the Porch off, so, it looks a bit neater out here...storms
can blow so many leaves and such up here...

Thanks for understanding, Garrett! You and Darla enjoy dinner!

Here's a couple boxes of KK's for fellow Porchians!

#815 Postby **wx247** » Sun May 18, 2003 9:17 pm

We had a nice dinner of BBQ Ribs and Cole Slaw.

It was delicious!

Thanks for sweeping off the porch Breeze.

#816 Postby **azskyman** » Sun May 18, 2003 11:40 pm

Shannon....you are ALMOST through! Best wishes during these last hours of school this year!

David...take the confidence you have in yourself, the willingness to grow and help others, and your own positive self-image into the opportunity. That's what we have to offer. Maybe this is the shot you've been waiting for!

Wow...this porch is so clean! Where'dya get that broom?

Have a nice Monday all!

I am double majoring in Environmental and Earth Science with a minor in Geography. I'm taking my core meteorology classes at UWGB since UWGB doesn't have a met program... only 3 semesters left at UWGB (4 1/2 years it is taking me) Thanks for the good luck wishes with the exams.

No problem Shannon, I'm sure you'll do fine

Wow, I have had quite the headache (worse one I can remember) this evening into this early morning from the constant lightning and numerous rumbles of thunder. Since I returned to my computer, it has been difficult to read to catch you to the posts (not saying word wrong, :roll:

)

I usually don't get headaches, but thank goodness it is starting to go away.

Shannon, good luck on your exams.

The temperature is 71.6 degrees and very moist out with the heavy rain from this evening.

Have a wonderful Monday.

GulfBreezer · #820 Postby **GulfBreezer** » Mon May 19, 2003 7:43 am

Wow! The porch looks so clean!! Thanks!

Be careful what you wish for, you just might get it!! Rain has not stopped here for about 18 hours! I was up most of the night listening to some horrendous thunder!! Lots of roads closed over in Mobile Al. 80 families are stranded. Still sprinkling now!

Thanks for the KK's........but no carbs for me!!

Got 2 boxes Garrett, working on the 3rd!! I have enlisted donations from work too, so they keep coming!!

Shannon, is your brain full yet? I am finishing my Bachelor's in Accounting then want to get my MBA, so I feel your pain!

Have a great Monday!!
Happy Hurricane Awareness Week!!
P.S. The spell check said this was clear to send!!
