114 in the shade, as it were.
Greetings, fellow word(press)smiths!
I hope everyone is doing well and having a good week thus far.
I had to unexpectedly drop off the radar because it’s been one hell of a week ’round here.
First, we got walloped with another blast of high heat this week. Average temperature was 93 with a feels like of 101 and obscene humidity. In the shop, the average temp was 110 – 114 degrees. No bueno!
“Sweating bullets” doesn’t even begin to cover it. 😄🥵
I also had a bit of a run-in with a errant fork truck that did not really end in my favor. Spoiler: The fork truck won.
Anyone get the number of that truck?
Fortunately, I personally did not get hit, but my cart got clipped while a driver was backing up to turn around and it gave my neck a bit of a jolt. Mostly just sore more than anything. I’m still feeling it, but it could have been much worse.
Total freak accident kinda thing. 🤷♂️
Thankfully, no one was seriously injured and all’s well that ends well.
I wanted to get a Showcase post up for all the NTT entries, I just have not been able to yet. I’ve been so beat down when I get home that I just plain don’t have the juice at the moment.
I am gonna try to get one compiled this weekend. If y’all have any more posts you want to add to the tally, there’s still time.
There’s also some entries I have yet to get to read, so I will be around ASAP.
I’ll get there. I promise!
Anyhow, I just wanted to say hello real quick and let y’all know I was thinking of ya. Hang in there, and hopefully I can catch up a bit over the weekend!
Stay Frosty, kids!
(Especially if you’re dealing with the heat too!)
