Happy Tuesday Everyone (even though I thought it was Wed). Its going to be a very nice day today with sunshine and nice warm temperatures. The lawn crew is here doing their spring start up so it's a bit noisy outside right now. Otherwise I would open the sliding door for some fresh air.
My internet is being stupid this morning. It's so slow that I have to keep refreshing my page and I feel like I'm paying for a higher speed internet and getting little in return. Even my daughter complained that she's having a hard time working.
As I'm sitting here something caught my eye outside my window. My neighbor is on his roof (which is slanted) power washing. How he climbed up there is beyond me because all I can see is a wooden ladder propped up against the back of his house. He's over 70 years old and I can't believe he's up there and no one else is helping him. I pray he doesn't slip and fall.
Now I'm totally distracted 
I didn't spend much time here yesterday. The groomer was here for over 2 hours doing the pups and by the time she left and I had my lunch I needed a nap. Next thing I knew it was time to cook dinner.
Hopefully today I can spend more time here and catch up.
Right now I'm going to enjoy my coffee
Have a good day my friends

You are lucky to have such a nice day, its cool here today.
I hope that your neighbour doesn't need any help and manages to get down from the roof safely.
I think that with your broken toe you should try to watch from afar, take the silent supervisory position on this one.

It isn't quite as warm as they've predicted but maybe by the afternoon it will be even warmer. Then we plunge back into the chilly weather by Thurs.
Hope you're feeling better today and that your headache is gone.

I am having my last zip of coffee as I type here 
. Sunny but a bit cooler here today. Internet problems are no fun for kids in virtual class too. I was thinking of the musical Fiddler on the Roof . . . but for you it's Neighbor on the Roof . Have fun catching up here . . . I will try to be here when I can - I gotta catch up on more yard work while it's cool-ish. You have a good day too

@Marilynda1225 The school system just went down 
- they can't get into class! The internet definitely has its share of problems from time to time. We just had block walls built, so there is a lot of cement and stuff that needs to be cleaned up right now. It is not a huge yard, but bigger than I can manage right now (we opened up a section too, so now the yard is a teeny bit bigger).

Slow internet is a big pain isn't it
Enjoy your time outside today. Do you have a large yard to take care of?

I am stunned at your neighbor up there! Hope he will be fine.
Have a lovely day now.

@Marilynda1225 I would never climb on our roof to do something like this. I confess that I sometimes do things that my husband would not approve, but not something so dangerous.

He's safely off the roof but he was giving me anxiety while he was up there. Don't know what would possess him to do something like that without having a family member or friend standing by

Seems like it's mowing and power washing season. Thankfully my neighbor made it off the roof

I am going to put some ribs into the oven to begin cooking then I am going to mow our grass. This will be the second cut of the year.
I hope your neighbor will be safe up on his roof.
I hope your toe is better today. Enjoy the beautiful day ahead.

Ribs sound so good. I'm having a simple dinner tonight. (salad with grilled chicken)
Our lawn guys are only starting the season here and have been doing the mulching and only mowed once.
Hope you have a good day
