🌀 some say heart is just like a wheel ...

🌀 you can bend it but you can't break it  .... ala the McGarrigles

a sodden day [ betcha ya' that you don't hear that word ' sodden ' very often ]
but it is. soggy and wet 
BUT the heat and humidity breaks today.

usually, I boast about the Chromebook and Chrome OS. The ready advice is, to store info / data on Google Drive which is    ' cloud storage '. This cloud doesn't use the native storage on the Chromebook [ limited ] and instead uses part of the 100 Gb that is allowed for free w/ Chrome OS.
Ah, yesterday, I spent a good 20 min trying to find where data is being stored [ so I can recall saved data ]. As it turns out, Chrome OS is saving to Drive [ good ] but I can't tell where.
There is a Google Drive section, labelled ' 2 downloads ' and another labelled ** downloads . Both work.
However, at any time, I don't which is getting the data when I hit the button ' save to Drive '.
Thus, I can find all the saved stuff but I need to search.

I'm betting that what happens is that b/c I use 2 emails [ each is an identity to the OS ] that depending on which email that I save from, then there is a different Google Drive compartment.

Ughh ! computers

Momentous day. A PSW comes to help M .. around the house and / or shower & personal care

PSW. success. the visit went well

Whew !!!! 

🏮 6 ish in September

 🏮 oh, we'll always find our way back home .......

another warm to uncomfortable day is here
there is an increasing chance of rain

🚪 ... let my love, open the door ...

 🚪 .... to your heart  ... [ The Who, and Peter Townsend ]

a hot smoker out there AND its 11 Am 
will humidex top 100  [ the burning question, sorry not a pun

yet. I'm going out into the heat
tomorrow, may not be appreciably cooler

plus potentially, much wetter

yessiree ! humidex will top 100 [ not there yet but no doubt ]

🚖 .. a big yellow taxi ....

 🚖 .......  took away, my old man ..... ' Joni Mitchell

.... and we pave Paradise and put up a parking lot

seems, that I am going the other way
take out the interlock pavers and grass over the 700 sq ft

why you can buy from China and save

labour costs - lower [ by buckets ]
shipping - China as a developing country has preferred rates

and already warm to warm, toasty out there
the neighbours have an unrelenting work schedule

Their deadline is Friday [ Saturday wedding ] and work must get done
I built the Great Wall of Me  . that was 3 years ago

to quote the BeeGees ' I'm ten feet tall but I'm only 3 ft wide ..... '

so, my Wall of Me, chest high and 8ft wide
next door has a wall just below chest high and 12 ft minimum

they win
originally, I figured, maybe a week or so and the wall comes down
BUT they back filled the wall - apparently, the thinking is ' at least a year ' before the new wall comes down

and Father and Son were out there again in the heat it's got to be it's got to be 90 + ° and it is a smoker out there and they were out trimming and you know doing all the things to make the yard look good for the wedding to come you know this this Saturday 

🚍 the beginning of September

 🚍 will produce - perhaps - the longest sustained warm spell of the year

We shall see said the Zen Master

yesterday, turned out to be the semi - final clearing up of the boulevard
the interlock paver s are now down below along w/ 10 curbstones [ heavy ]
the neighbour, D .. and son hand bombed the curbstones to the backyard
oof ! what a job. And D .. would not stop til the boulevard site was neat and presentable [ based on the assumption that the area may stay unfinished  i.e. no grass etc for a while ]

Thnx for that D ..

Now, I did help. Getting the curbstones down was hard. The most risky part was at the bottom where the vertical drop was 3 ft. I stayed down there and caught the curbstone so, a person could let go and hop down. I ensured that the stone got support as each person hopped down. And I'm sore. 
I could not have done their job.

BTW, the team is back out there [ minus me, I handed off some bricks til the whole crew arrived, all 2 of them ]

and it hot and humid

𐏍 not officially, fall. in fact we have some hot days coming

OR you can sing of - an imaginary world and time

Just my dog and I At the edge of the universe. Well, I didn't want to bring her And I know it'll make her worse. Now I look out on forever And it must be nice down there. And they call me Shenandora in the air. Well, I'm ten feet tall, But I'm only three feet wide. And I live inside an ocean that flows On the other side. If I came back down tomorrow, Would it all be far too soon? And it looks like it's gonna be a lovely afternoon. I thought that I was going home, And all the way I kept on prayin'. I couldn't stop to turn around; Well, here I am and here I'm stayin'. It's been my longest journey And I've come through the black of night. I was tired and hungry When I saw your distant light. Well, I know this may sound crazy, But I'm sure I got here first. I'm just me, Shenandora, At the edge of the universe. I thought that I was going home, And all the way I kept on prayin'. I couldn't stop to turn around; Well, here I am and here I'm stayin'. Just my dog and I At the edge of the universe. Well, I didn't want to bring her And I know it'll make her worse. Now I look out on forever And it must be nice down there. And they call me Shenandora in the air. At the edge of the universe...

wilkommen ㋈

 ㋈ fall resumes as it always does

BUT we get very warm for three days- loads of sun and humidity

actually, next week is supposedly hotter [ too far out to trust the weather-people ] I figure one day out has an error of about 20 % and three days out, the error is 40 % ....
one week ? 50 / 50 

Soo Mi or Soo Yu. Bugger King is sued for misleading imagery

" The images on menus and ads, he says, portray "a big, thick, juicy burger, flame broiled, dripping with, you know, juiciness," and topped with "bright green, fresh, crisp lettuce" and ripe tomato protruding from a "glistening bun."

"In reality, what you see when you unwrap it … would be a very, very thin and greyish looking dried-out burger with maybe some wilted lettuce, you know, popping through on the sides," he said.

isn't that the way .... the image is a facsimile of the real thing
whose Xmas turkey ever arrived at the table sprayed  w/ shellac and re painted cranberries .....
