Sudokuaholics Anonymous 3

Ok, finally finished all the puzzles. I'm off to bed.
Night Broni
Night June
Thanks for the chat, good to catch up with you.

Just posted something into cyberspace!

Doing well and will be off to bed otherwise I will get carried away and be like last night and then not able to get to sleep.

Had Laura today. Would not eat much or go to sleep.
How do 2 1/2 year olds work out that if they bang on the door and yell out that they need to do a big p*oo when they do not that they will be let out of their room.
Off now . Night all

GOOD MORNING SUDOKULAND



Popping in to put on the coffee, and then back to bed for me. the last of the storms are exiting my area, it has been a wakeful night for us here. No damage to our property, but a lot of water fell, ran across the yard. No puddles, to much of a slope, but I had a shallow river running through. I hope this rain fills the ponds and streams. would be nice if it raised the levels in the dams, too.

You ladies were talking humidity. Ours was 90% and better, with dew points in the mid 60's, Now that is humid!

Hi Gail, that is so hard.

Miz T I am so glad that you didn't fair too badly in the tornadoes that sprang up across the south. I was concerned when I saw the extensive damage. The same storm system is headed our way, but without the same intensity. Currently we have light off and on drizzle, some mild breezes and temps at 67 degrees.....crazy weather this year.

Whew! They've gone for the day. I have to go up to the showground to deliver the cake entry, but otherwise the day is mine!!

Hope the tornadoes are completely gone MizT. I saw the headlines this morning and thought of you...

YEAH it is raining.. serious rain.. hopefully the humidity will go away

Broni, I have lived here in Perth all my life, this time of the year Feb/March it gets very humid.. and am still not used to it.. so draining !!!

d2 insists it's her birthday today - it's the first day of the year of the rat and she was born in the year of the rat....

Woohoo Rolanda! We have had a few mm more of rain since the deluge Tuesday. But it was sunny yesterday and I actually got clothes dry on the line.

Hey suzy.
Our airconditioner decided to pack it in last Monday.. it has been so so so uncomfortable.. the house is hot as.. the nights hot.. no cool breezes..
with this rain, the temp is slightly cooler.. thank goodness.

getting washing dry has not been a problem.. put washing out on the line around 6.00ish last night. and it was dry 7.00ish.

I would have thought the humidity would effect clothes drying Rolanda. I guess if the temp is high enough, they dry anyway! All I managed to get done were the towels etc that were catching the rain sneaking under doors etc

it was 36C yesterday.. and a hot easterly blowing.
my clothes line is undercover all year round.
and our Humidity isnt like yours in the tropics.

not tropical here Rolanda - but days of over 90% humidity before the rain hit left my clothes not feeling dry even after a day on the line

My day is starting - I have to go and deliver the cake now... Have a great day!!! Hope the rain sticks around.

See Tricia whispering (Psss, Suzy, Rolanda is a wimp, when it comes to humidity. Her clothes dried so fast cause the humidity was somewhere around 20% between 6 and 7 last night! Highest it got all day, when the temp was down, was 65% humidity. I do not think she is accustomed to REAL humidity! We should remind her not to visit you or me in summer)

SA3ers. This is my morning 'I'm not really here' hello!
Rolanda, I see the net is connecting you again. Good. I was starting to think you had done something to make the lectrics mad at you! First the aircon then the net!
Broni, what is so hard?

MizT, I can't believe how much I listen to the news these days. When I heard that tornadoes were crossing America, I listened intently for where and when I heard Alabama, I too thought instantly of you. I am pleased they missed you but very sorry to hear of the 50 killed.

I heard that Tricia..

Gail, I forget what was so hard, comes with old timers disease!

Missed you all by 'that' much! Just taking a few minutes before I start putting away groceries, vacuuming floors, and all those other 4 letter word things. I get so tired these days, I feel like I'm 100

Absolutely amazing photo of the toddler being dropped from a window to avoid a fire! Absolutely incredible (and wonderful) that he survived!!

Still haven't started putting stuff away... Maybe the fairies will come while I'm hiding in here?

Hello again.. been without power for 2 hours.

back to humid conditions.. here in Perth, we have dry heat..
when there is a little bit of moisture in the air, humidity, it hits like a ton of bricks, and yes it is uncomfortable, and yes can still get my washing dry,
(unless it is extremely high % of moisture, like if there is a cyclone hanging around in the NW)
unlikely my washing will dry as quick today with the rains.

Rolanda, I hope your humidity is more to your liking today. I just had to tease you a bit.

Really low humidity here lately, low for us, and I feel so dried out. Can walk outside and my lips dry in minutes. I am hunting chap stuck! Drinking bottles of water, but I do like the "no sweat". Well, actually sweat that evaporates, so not wet and drippy.

Fricka fracka - roads are closed again!! And only 27mm of rain so far...

Ello again. Just off to catch up with the easy page but will check back in a few mins.

Hope d2 can get home! I'll know in about 20 minutes...

HI Gail, haven't caught you in a while, though I have been reading your comments, hope your mother is okay...

Thank you so much Suzy. Yes, she is fine now but gave us quite a scare.

Hi everyone. Just a "drive-by" post tonight.

MizT, have you ever tried Rosebud Salve? Great stuff. It lasts a long time and has a faint smell of roses. My mom got me hooked years ago.

Rolanda, try putting a dish or pan of ice behind a fan and sit in front of it. Growing up we didn't have ac and used to do this to get cooled off. Doesn't last long, but helps for a bit.

Suzy, should you be doing all that awful stuff so soon?

Gail, glad you were able to catch up with your nephew. I'm sure your parents appreciate having someone come in to help.

June, our storms didn't last long, but had vivid lightning and downpours. This winter weather is very strange for Ohio. The temps keep going up and down. Today it got up to 62 F (17 C) with rain and by Sunday our high is supposed to be 19 F (7 C) with snow.

Now off to bed with me. Hope everyone has a great day/night.

Did someone see that masked man flash through here!

Becky - I tried to vacuum and ended up quitting - I'll get d1 on it tonight... lucky d1... whose bus hasn't made it here yet...

Becky, I thought Mum would be resistant to having 'help' come in, being from the old proud school of thought. But it was necessary for her to have that bit of a hand and she is most grateful for the assistance. The service is not much but just means that Mum and Bill (dad) just have to wash clothes and do the dusting instead of having to worry about the floors. Of course, it also gives them a new person to talk to as well!

What masked man Gail (by the way, how did your comment jump in front of mine? it wasn't there before???)?

What about cooking Gail? Meals on wheels?

Where is that bus???

Becky's avatar and her love em and leave em post is who I was referring to. I can't remember who the character is.
They seem to be managing meals wise. They are elderly, so don't eat much anyway but now Mum is better, she has been cooking roasts etc so things are back to normal in that area. They have their set routine for food, both have a big bowl of porridge to start the day, then for lunch Mum has her fruit and Bill has a sandwich. Dinners are the usual fare, meat and three veg or a variation on that theme, maybe a Sag Bot or Stir fry.

Do you have a number you can contact at the school to see whether the bus got away at the right time? Maybe the school might be able to ring the bus driver if he/she has a mobile.
