Tuesday!
As you can see by Itzl's concerned look, this group is for us to check in at to let people know we are alive, doing OK, and not affected by such things as heat, blizzards, floods, wild fires, hurricanes, tornadoes, power outages, or other such things that could keep us off DKos. It's also so we can find other Kossacks nearby for in-person checks when other methods of communication fail - a buddy system. Members come here to check in. If you're not here, or anywhere else on DKos, and there are adverse conditions in your area (floods, heatwaves, hurricanes, etc.), we and your buddy are going to check up on you. If you are going to be away from your computer for a day or a week, let us know here. We care!
We have split up the publishing duties, but we welcome everyone in IAN to do daily diaries for the group! Every member is an editor, so anyone can take a turn when they have something to say, photos and music to share, a cause to promote or news!
Ok, we have a current diary schedule. If you would like to fill in, either post in thread or send FloridaSNMom a Kosmail with the date. If you need someone to fill in, ditto. FSNMom is here on and off through the day usually from around 9:30 or 10 am eastern to around 11 pm eastern.

Well,
here we are again,
another bigjac Tuesday.
Our backyard garden is doing really well;
we've had so much rain,
I wonder if the plants
are getting enough sun.
Rain,
sun,
they need both.
The cucumber vines,
and watermelon vines,
and cantaloupe vines,
are taking over the back yard.
The squash plants are two and a half feet tall,
but no blooms yet.
The rain should let up today,
and I have two wet loads of laundry
to hang up,
besides the load of towels,
that's been on the clothesline
for a few days,
getting rinsed by the rain,
over and over.
Hope you're doing well,
but even if not,
tell us about it.
We're here to listen.
