  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I LOVE that siggie~ it is adorable (you know me LOL) :D and your coffee bean greeting is neat too :thumbsup:

The heat and humidity is SOOOO draining; we get very little done here, and if we do anything we just DRIP :p

Yup...FALL will be great when it comes this year for sure! :clap:

Take good care :hug:

This has been a tad cooler day...but the worst is coming...

We don't get much done in humid heat either...nor have the ummph to try to do much.

We got the freezer cleaned out, I cleaned the plantation shutters in my office and cleaned out some more storage...probably will sit the rest of the day...then cook pork chops for dinner.

I thought of you Gail when i found this photo...very cool and restful.

Very pretty! We sure do need 'cool and restful' today ~ it is hitting 100 with oppressive humidity, and strong storms blowing up out of nowhere. Thanks :hug:

I'll be heading to Church in the next hour; I pray we don't need to close up the house because of storms; it will be so hot in here (hotter than it already is) :pray:
For some reason I have been very anxious about that; not closing up and having the inside of the house damaged by wind driven rain.

The last time we didn't close up, and a parishioner came in and said it was BLACK our near my way.
I was a wreck the whole Mass....and we never got the storm :doh:

My nerves aren't as strong as they used to be it seems, and I find I can be anxious and indecisive at times.

Lord, have mercy; I AM trying! :o :crossrc:

I find I can get nervous and broody too...we hear so many BAD things these days...from all around the world.

Those storms in the east have been deadly...lots of wind, lightening, etc....also seem to happen very suddenly.

That heat and humidity is nothing to ignore...it is terrible to live in....:hug::hug::hug::hug:

I am praying through it, will look at the radar before we leave, and do the best I can :pray:
It's tough to get old :p Thanks :hug:


I know...I am a little ahead of you Gail. I just lie on the floor a lot when our heat and humidity get too bad here. Put a wet cloth around my neck and wait for Fall. :)

If you have 'privacy' ... you could quickly cool yourself
~by spongeing your body with a wet flannel ...allow it to evaporate

# Leave some water in the bath /basin [for the purpose]

I used to do this to my children when they were feverish 103-104.F
it is very effective... warm water too!
The faster it evaporates, the more heat is lost with it

Stay cool :prayer:

Hello Eagles - have a great weekend. We're going to enjoy a quiet and almost cool weekend indoors. Our air-conditioner hasn't been able to keep up with the 112F plus temperatures outside, but we can at least get it down to 86F inside and use fans. Just think about what folks did before electricity.

So one of my clients who was in the shelter system for three years finally got out and has housing now. Please pray for him. I really do not want to see him come back.
Hi Forge :wave:

Praying for the Lord's continued blessings and healing on this person.

May God bless you both :pray:

It is very quiet in here today; everyone must be out enjoying good weather (I hope) :)

I will be offline for the rest of this day, most likely.
We have a heavy line of string storms approaching within the hour, and the storm threat will continue through tomorrow morning,
as a strong front comes through (bringing relief to the heat and humidity).

My daughter, her new beau, and our 2 grandsons are also coming for a chicken BBQ within the hour.
She is making potato salad, hubby made cucumber salad with cukes from his garden, and we have corn on the cob,
with strawberry shortcake for dessert :yum:

Cya later when I can get online agin ~ God bless :pray:

Hi Shirley ~ and all Golden Eagles :wave:

JesusDay.gif


Abundant blessings :pray:

Hi Gail...I went out, tried to go to church, but i left...I cannot stand the loud music anymore...I was pretty upset...guess my heart really is with a certain online ministry, their teaching and music...Iam going to quit thinking about plugging in to a local church...then i don't have to worry about my personal health problems so much either...
Plus, it is a lot hotter today and more humid...don't have to tell you that it is not so great to be out and about.

I did get a walk with Gracie in last night after dark...not sure we can do that today tho...the weather has changed for the worse.
