Morning Beachie!!

I hope your weather holds nice for your time off, and I hope your pool water warms up.

Scattered showers around here, Memorial Day weekend is always hit and miss weather-wise out here.

I have a physical exam this morning, so I have to fast til then; I'm starved :-(

Have a greatdocious vacation!

[luvie]

Well, and that’s coming just around the corner. Hope it heals fast for the boy! :)

Good morning, Luv!

Hope you can stay cool today! We're at about 70 degrees at 9:38 a.m. - expected high today is 81. Looking for temps in the 90's over the Memorial Day weekend.

How are you doing this morning?

UGH! Hate that having to fast before exam. Hope you have an early appointment.

A look ahead on weather in Delaware shows partly cloudy and hotter. Fingers crossed it stays that way.

I’ll be back tonight but not tomorrow morning. Kathy will have to do the honors.

Have a wonderlicious weekend.
