Goodbye June...

 

It's goodbye to June & I'm thankful for that.  June hasn't  been an awful month, but it hasn't been good  either.  It'd be nice if the last half of the year was better.  I have little nice to say, so Goodbye June, try harder next year.

I found another article over needle exchanges.  Even though they've been proven to help combat the spread of HIV & are supported by the CDC, many states are trying to end them.  Vicious conservatives are being idiots over health matters, no surprise there.

That's all for, take care.

Late Month Sightings...

 

There isn't much going on this morning.  At least the sun's shining.  It's been a weird month & June is almost over.   Yesterday was cooler, but the coolness was almost draining after being so warm. 

About a week ago, I saw my 1st dragon of the season.  It was glossy black.  This morning, I saw the 1st hummer of the year.   It was so tiny, I could barely see it.  I couldn't tell the color.  I just saw the motion & strange flight of a hummer.  

That's all for now.  Take care & enjoy the end of June.

Yuck...

 

Yesterday was borderline miserable.  It started dark & moved into storming.  The rain was supposed to last all day.  It was only supposed to make it into the 80s.  The rains stopped & the temps rose into the mid 80s.  Yesterday was like living in a giants arm pit.  The humidity was oppressive.  The air smelled like rotten eggs due to locals shooting off fireworks.  It was hot, smokey, sticky & smelled of sulfur.  What a great day.  Maybe today will be a little better.

National HIV Testing Day...

It's that time of year again.  It's National HIV Testing Day.  Go online & find a testing center near you.  Many offer free testing.  Testing is the 1st step in treatment.  

Take care.

2 Things...

 

Summer issues are here.  These mornings often find me very dehydrated.  I don't sleep as deep during the Summer & wake up a lot easier.  The fans & heat are basically trying to turn me into jerky.  By morning, I'm parched.  It takes a while to get rehydrated & feel somewhat normal again.

Next topic, I've lost most the blogs I follow.  When I started blogging, I followed a few dozen.  Most of those are gone.  Under a dozen still stand.  Less than half of those post semi-regularly.  While only a couple post often.  A blogger posted a message she was retiring her blog.  She'd moved on to other formats.  I don't blame her, but there goes another thing I enjoyed.  I have means of following some of these other people still, but it's not the same.   They may be prettier & more professional, but the soul's gone.  Blogger may end someday & then I'll have to make a decision about my blog.  Do I allow an ending or  move somewhere else? I don't know.

Sticky...

 

There isn't much happening this morning.  It's sort of bright out, but clouds keep dimming things.  I hate filtered Summer light.  It's rough on the eyes.  The humidity is high & it's sticky this morning.  The cat gave me a dirty look when I tried to pet her. She didn't want my sticky heat adding to her's.  It won't get any cooler today, but maybe the heat will burn off some of this moisture.  Have to go now, we have shopping to handle.

Take care.

It's Back...

 

The reprieve from the Summer heat ends today.  It's supposed to be hot until Sunday, then back down in the 80s.  It was nice to have the cooler days.  There was no need for the AC.  

The heat has returned & with it came idiots.  Idiots that stay up all night making noise.  Fools that try to skateboard while half drunk.  It also means the return of fireworks.  It's not the idea of them that gets to me.  It's the repetition & smell.  That gets really annoying & can make it hard  to  breathe.  Sometimes our neighbors suck.

Take care.
