@duglop I'm in Illinois. Hadn't heard about Maureen. Whee does she come from? Gulf?
4.33" of rain so far today and no end in sight. Glad I'm on high ground.

What is so sad about the pictures from my flower garden, I have to get rid of them all! After my breast cancer & my colon cancer surgeries, I get contact dermatitis from any plant, grass, shrubs, flowers. Even if I just brush them with a piece of clothing, it will get on my skin when I remove it (Learned from my dermatologist when blisters developed all over my feet when I removed my socks)!
Glad I took the pictures.
There are people in my general area with the last name of Hittler. If that were my family name I would have changed it about 80 years ago. Two Ts doesn't help any.
My eye is finally starting to feel a bit better. No longer painful, just a little scratchy. Never stick your fingernail into your cornea.
Temp is 90.7ยฐF and feels like 105. And it's only 11:20 a.m. High of 98 expected.
I somehow managed to thwack the cornea of my bad eye with a fingernail last night. Painful. Staying home. Feels like a metal shard.

I suspect the "no elbows on the table" rule came from having many people around the table, also the possibility it might tip the table. When I have room, my elbows are on the table sometimes. I have descended into anarchy.
