🃱 I'm Hoping

 🃱  that if you are still counting - as in days of August etc. [ If you didn't remember then this is the 17 th ]

it means that you are alive and kicking
To wit, if you 're still complaining then the cavalry got there in time

yes, I'm moaning a bit. a little sore, knees to chest. I'm sure its the jumping off and on the boat. Oh, and just about everything else that I did at the Q'. Which really wasn't much.

The highlight was the fish and lunch. The movie du jour was the          ' Black Widow ' from Marvel or ' the Marvel Comic Universe ' - their name not mine. 

day is a little dull. but sun is peeking through

OK straight from the horse's mouth. 

" July the hottest month in NASA records. 
Overall, July 2023 was 0.43 degrees Fahrenheit (F) (0.24 degrees Celsius (C)) warmer than any other July in NASA’s record, and it was 2.1 F (1.18 C) warmer than the average July between 1951 and 1980. The primary focus of the GISS analysis are long-term temperature changes over many decades and centuries, and a fixed base period yields anomalies that are consistent over time. Temperature "normals" are defined by several decades or more - typically 30 years

BTW. GISS is the Goddard Institute for Space

well, if we are still complaining ..............
