The other day - over a week - my wireless printer stopped working. At least it stopped working when I sent it something to print from my lap top. I seem to have problems with printers but can usually solve them. So, after trying several things, I just stopped and the concern was in the back of my mind. So, today I re-installed the drivers did a few things and yep, it now works! Yea, me!!! I find that most things "wrong" can be resolved by stepping back and then starting again. Often the light bulb goes off and a potential solution comes to mind. Some work like this one - others don't. So I'm happy!
We had a muggy several days and I ended up cooking inside as it was raining off and on all day yesterday. Dark skies and boomers but while we had heavy rain and wind, no damage. The folk at the Pocono Races did have not only severe weather but one person died and several were injured from lightning. We are close to the lake and can often hear boats out on the water during dark storm coming weather. Crazy!
It's interesting how one notes the seasons changing. It's the first week in August and the sun comes in the kitchen window at a different angle. In the spring it hits our eyes in the breakfast area as we eat breakfast - now it's a bit moved and hitting the kitchen counter as we eat. It's also getting darker earlier (I know, duh) as we put on the outside spots both in the morning (5:30 AM) and evening (8:45 or 9:00 PM) for Honey's walk (and our safety). My herbs are doing well, the basil is bushy and the mint prolific. The dill didn't do great but better than last year when it only produced a straggly single head. I put my dill in the refrigerator pickles I made two weeks ago. However, when I made the pepper pickles I had to use purchased dried dill.
We are looking forward to a less muggy and mostly sunny week.
