Good evening Massachusetts and tomorrow is the start to another week in the meat grinder. Looks like we are getting lots of rain, no wind but our share of flood warnings, guess I need a work boat not a cargo van!

Good morning Massachusetts...and...all who visit this Saturday #1!!! Hope y'all had a great weekend. 
Yet another incredibly humid morning here...currently 71* with 94% RH. Henri has started turning East...should be directly North of us around 0700 hours on his trip to the Atlantic. We're expecting some rain all day...mostly just showers...nothing serious. All in all...in the immediate area...Henri was a gigantic nothing burger. Elsewhere...not so much...we lucked out this time. Hope all is well in your little slice of heaven!!!
No Saawx yesterday...postponed due to Henri...rescheduled for this afternoon.
Off to "work" soon...hope y'all have a great day!!!

Mornin All,
Well Ken, hope you also missed the storm. I really like it when they are wrong.. or I should say Mother Nature has a nice streak ! I got some rain but barely any wind so I am thrilled.
I was out of bed at 0630, all showered and ready for the New Boss to call me and tell me if I'm working today. Did I say that 98% of his work is all INSIDE painting AND his jobs don't start till 0830-0900... cuz no one wants to be up too early hahahaha Works for me !
Have a good day all and may the rain only fall in the rivers
Have a good day at Work Ken

Morning Ken, Lin, Don, John, all MASS and friends. What a weird storm Henri has been. Making another pass at MA today/tonight and off the coast late tonight/tomorrow.......so the guessers think! He sure has made a circular route in his "lifetime.
Lin, good luck in whatever job you'll be doing today - if any at all ! Ken, hope your morning goes well at "work" ! O's tied the record for most losses in a row. Off today so the record won't be broken till at least tomorrow. LA is coming to town.

Good late morning all...Henri is still making an appearance here...just some sprinkles. Hope all is well in your world.
Good morning Rod...thanks..."work" was not as good as we hoped for...no major issues though. Auntie Katie was my primary caregiver...Katie Beth came in at 0800 hours. A 2 Katie Day...how can you go wrong???
Hope your day packing sammies goes well.
Good morning LIn...hope your first day of work goes well. Henri hit us pretty much as you...light rain...some breezes. Not too far south of here...a whole lot more rain...heavier winds...a fair amount of flooding.
Good morning Shaun-ster. 
Good morning Bud...you're right about Henri...headed to the MA/NY border...then took an abrupt right hand turn...headed for the Atlantic. If the O's can't be good...at least they can be the best at being bad. Some consolation at least. See above ^^^^^ about "work".
Hope your day packing sammies goes well.

Welllllllllll...Henri took another shot at us this afternoon...moderate to heavy rain virtually all afternoon. I'm guessing that we got an additional 2"+ of rain...bringing the total to 3"+/-...and...it won't end till around 2300 hours...possibly some boomers. In addition to the rain...at least one tornado touched down briefly in Central MA...there were multiple tornado warnings as well. I don't know if there was any damage from the tornado(s).
I picked up Jonathan from football practice this afternoon...I was hoping to watch the boys slip sliding away in the mud...but...no...they had practice inside. At first I thought...WIMPS...then I realized that he would have gotten into my nice clean car.
The kids were fitted for their shoulder pads and worked on defensive drills for an hour. I have to take him to practice tomorrow...it's gonna be warm and sticky...I'll bring a lawn chair and watch the goings on.
Hope y'all had a great day!!!
Howdy Neil...hope your recovery is going smoothly. Listen to your therapists!!!
