Good evening Illinois, Ken, Sean,Jim, Shaun, Pat, John, and Don!

Was a nice day here in the River City today, 87° with little to no humidity

Right now it looks like its missing a great chance to rain. We haven't had any rain since last week, now we need it again.

Howdy Don!

When Patty got home from her dad's she invited our neighbors behind us in for beer and brats.

When they left I helped with the dishes and got on here.

I could do that, but she won't like it...

I have done it many times for my SIL, but it is like shoveling $hlt against the tide

Just gives them a new spot to put more crap... LOL

Yeah I know how that is..

You don't mind helping when they need it, but not when they go right back to hoarding..

She will go back to buying again. She needs professional help.
Her husband lets her have her way.

They've got someone to move them. Right now they are trying to go thru the shlt and pitch it but she is fighting Patty all the way.
