California Update: Last Sunday, the temperature in Los Angeles County reached 121 degrees – the hottest it's ever gotten there. 

And earlier this week, fire officials said a "smoke-generating" device used at a gender reveal party caused a fire that is still burning in San Bernardino County (yes, this happened again). Yesterday, the state's largest utility shut off power to tens of thousands of customers in an effort to reduce wildfire risk. So far this year, wildfires in California have already killed eight people, destroyed over 3,300 buildings, and burned over 2 million acres.





FYI:  Just 55 days until the election.

Heartbreaking': Killer whale continues carrying dead calf for 'unprecedented' length of mourning

 
The killer whale who swam with her dead calf for 17 days in an apparent act of grieving is a mother again.
Tahlequah, known to researchers as J35, gave birth to a calf last week, according to a news release from the Whale Research Center.

i can definitely relate to the puzzle thing. I don't like games such as monopoly or chess. Actually I just don't like games. (Although my son is a gamer extraordinaire: go figure.)
But puzzles, ah puzzles: there is nothing more relaxing than doing a puzzle, and forgetting to feed the dog, or the family. Staying up until almost dawn, even when all the pieces are the same color because of the poor lighting.

And yes, there should be a "in self defense" clause that would allow the situation in your funny about the woman doing a puzzle.

Plus the one about friendship is something that has become even more valuable during this pandemic. Thank you for taking your time each day to make the lives of your friends a little bit better because of your blogs.

Oh Carrol, you are so kind. I treasure your friendship.
I started doing a little extra during these crazy time to remind us that we need to laugh and ponder, mainly laugh. Thank you for helping me provide smiles!
