Good night, NOSTR Friends! I hope you sleep well. Today brought more unexpected rain & storms. We started the week with no rain in the next two weeks’ forecasts, but ended up with over 2” of rain across both days. Oddly, even with that amount of rain it seems as if the lake in our basement is going down! Hopefully the floor will be dry tomorrow or the next day. I wish you good rest tonight, and a fruitful day tomorrow! Work hard, and keep moving toward your freedom!

Good morning, NOSTR Friends! I hope you’re well today. It is cloudy and 74 outside now, with an expected high temp of 83 degrees. I just made my coffee ☕️and a big travel mug of mint tea to start my day. The water 🌊in the basement is still there. I didn’t try to see how deep it is, but I might do that later… I plan to do some reading and studying this morning, then put the ducks out in their area. Have a great day, Friends! Work hard and do good things. Excluding today, there are three days left to do your work. And, if you’re so inclined, say some prayers for peace in the Middle East. While important things are being decided, and (reportedly) care is being taken to minimize unnecessary casualties, war is a terrible thing, and many lives are ended far too early! ☕️ #coffeechain

Good night, NOSTR friends! I hope your day was good - packed with a lot of accomplishments. My day good, though I had an unpleasant surprise when I went into my basement this morning to get some ground beef out of the freezer for my wife. There were 4” of water on the basement floor. The water was 2” above the base of our new furnace; it was above the base of our freezers and dehumidifier, numerous items, boxes, and totes were overturned; and I believe most of those items are lost. I checked to see if the drain is blocked, but it is not. I think when we received that 3.5” of rain it raised the water table and flooded the basement. Sleep well, my Friends! Tomorrow will be here soon enough, and we do our work again. If you think of them, and if you mare so inclined - no matter your politics - you might say a prayer for the people in Israel & Iran whose lives are being impacted by the current war, and for wisdom and safety for those who are executing the war. Sleep well!

Exciting news can be good, or it can be bad. My morning excitement is that I went to the basement and discovered 3” of uninvited water 🌊🐟🛶🐋 on the floor! 🚣‍♂️ we got a lot of rain this past weekend, but this is the most water I’ve seen in the basement (in the 10 years we’ve been here). I had intended to work outside, but my plans suddenly changed. This is my first experience with a flooded basement. Stay dry, my friends!!

Good morning, NOSTR Friends! I hope you woke up refreshed and ready to take on Monday. It is pretty outside and I hear various songbirds singing. So pretty! I picked the strawberries 🍓 last night, and ate them. I was hungry, and the tasted good. All the other strawberries from this spring are in the freezer, sooo…why not? 😈🤡 The Weather Channel is forecasting mostly sunny skies today with a high temperature of 89 degrees in northern Ohio. I’m going to make a pot of coffee ☕️ in a couple of minutes, set the ducks free for the day, and head out to my favorite weed patch (it used to be my garden…), to pull the weeds around my garlic, rhubarb and red raspberries. Have a great day, everyone!

@Jack Spirko I hope you’re having a nice afternoon! I was watching alternative news and they were reporting on riots (No Kings) in CA. Do you think these riots wills spread and lead to the strong response to disorder that I think you were forecasting a number of years ago? (It seems like it was about 10 years ago… Have a great day!

Good night, NOSTR Friends! It is time for me to hit the hay! I hope your day was productive! Mine wasn’t as productive as it could have been, but we had some good family time, and I got to sit under the tree and enjoy the cool weather & breeze. I hope you get some good rest tonight, and wake up refreshed in the morning. Good night!

Perry the Platypus is sad. He is empty and there is no coffee until morning!🙁☕️

I’m gonna do something I’ll regret later…going to see what everybodys rioting about on deadbird.
