Welcome to The Moose Pond! The Welcomings posts give the Moose, old and new, a place to visit and share words about the weather, life, the world at large and the small parts of Moosylvania that we each inhabit.
Welcomings will be posted at the start of each week (usually Saturday night with a Sunday date). To find the posts, just bookmark this link and Voila! (which is Moose for “I found everyone!!”).
The format is simple: each day, the first moose to arrive on-line will post a comment welcoming the new day and complaining (or bragging!) about their weather. Or mentioning an interesting or thought provoking news item. Or simply checking in.
So … what’s going on in your part of Moosylvania?

Good morning. Didn’t do much yesterday, so today I’m taking an early lunch and going to kickboxing. Still looking at the pictures from the Rubin observatory, they are amazing.
Good morning, meeses! Wednesday …
It is 73 degrees in Tucson 🌵 with an expected daytime high of 97. Sunny skies are in the forecast. Yesterday the rain went east of us, coming up from Mexico over the southeast corner of the state and into New Mexico. The next rain chance appears to be next Tuesday but I cannot imagine what model they are using to “forecast” that!
Interesting results from New York City on the mayors race. The Democratic socialist beat Andrew Cuomo but Cuomo said he will probably run in the general election. I guess he just wanted to see if Democrats still had any positive feelings for him. Sounds like NO. New York City has had quite a few Republican and Republican Lite Democrats as mayors so that is not surprising that he would just run as a random guy. I would think a lot of the voters just want to have someone who isn’t an active, indicted or convicted criminal.
I am working my way through a stack of things that need to be done or scheduled to be done by the end of June. I am trying to kick a bunch of projects down the road to the 3rd week of July so that I can take a break from the daily barrage. This morning I will work on accounting projects and then decide if I am ready to set up my new phone.
See all y’all later!
It’s 77 heading for 91/heat index 99 (but will probably go over 100 as it has the last 2 days) and sunny at the moment. The forecasted afternoon rain didn’t happen yesterday but the clouds showed up. We generated 19.42 KWHs and the m-t-d at 393.76 is on track to get over 500. IF we continue the current pattern.
Groggy and can’t think of much. Hopefully I can boost adequately on autopilot because that’s what I’ll be doing. Fortunately I’m rather good at doing things on autopilot. I don’t remember what I’ve done, but it gets done. LOL. Holding the Good/Healing/Protecting Thought for everybody. {{{Meeses}}}
Good afternoon, 58 and cloudy in Bellingham today. I’ve had a quiet morning and will be in the garden with Bri this afternoon. Erica and her family arrive Friday for a visit so we are getting the basics done and the rest of the family fun will happen with their help. Best wishes to all.
