Hey ....in case no one noticed.... Canada made it thru to the next round , and play Morroco on Saturday.....will this be as far as they will go..... Too sad Netherlands and Germany lost on penalties !!! Indeed sad we're out :( Certainly on penalties. I never like that however thrilling it may be to watch. Good you're still in the game! If the match is at a doable time for me I may watch it :) Personally I don't see why you wouldn't/couldn't win from Morocco. Everyone was yapping how much better and stronger their team was compared to the Dutch. And yet they couldn't win by making it 2-1, had to rely on penalties for that. (I always regard penalties a bit as pot luck, hihi) Then me's thinking, "Not so much stronger then, huh?!" Canada plays at 1pm ET Saturday....it will be a tuff game ...Morroco are used to the heat....and we are having a heat wave at this moment.. Just like England had a hard time against Congo...but settled down and won ... Only to set up in Mexico against Mexico...worse playing conditions... Go Canada Go...!!!! Ah, 1PM ET is 19.00 here (7PM) so that is certainly a good time to watch it :) Hopefully the heat is going to be bearable. Certainly won't help... They didn't really choose great places to play, did they?! |

This is my new painting "Where We Belong".
Finished it this afternoon :D And I'm very happy with it! No horse this time, I felt like doing a romantic scene. And somehow it also called for another cowboy. 40x50cm acrylics.

USA GOV site says the exact thing GRB says:
6 branches and the marines & navy are separate branches. One would think the US government itself knows its own military setup
Second point... why is everyone calling the male OP 'beautiful'? |

Thinking... time to get up and close the curtains. Almost dark and not even 23.00 yet.
So silly that the days start to get shorter once summer begins. Feels counter-intuitive. |

"I will Find you" Just saw it recently, it's soo Good and the plot twist will blow your mind! Nice, I will check that one out, don't think I've seen it yet :) OT -- watching Attila with a still very young and extremely hunky Gerard Butler. |

It may not be extreme where you live, where I live it is. If you like facts: that's a fact! As I said, each country -or area even- is different :)
And you saying that it isn't, far from that, IS dissing someone else's experiences and that what is factual in other areas/countries. Texas isn't the gauge ya know. It is for where you live maybe, not for where the rest of the world lives. Thinking... Glad dinner is over! Wasn't in the mood for cooking but one has to eat. |

Django Unchained - 2013
IMDb rating 8,5 My rating: a solid 10! I'd forgotten just how good this movie is. |

Feeling... happy with how my painting is coming along :D

Well, every country has its own so called normal and extremes :)
No need to diss someone else's experiences because yours are different. It's not a competition, ya know! |

Thinking... what an afternoon?!
A cool start after more than a week of extremely high temps, then we got loads of rain, really bad thunder again & again during the entire afternoon. And once the rain turned to hail of 2-2,5cm Ø !! THAT was frightening. I knew it could occur, never had it happen. The noise alone! And I feared the roofing of my extension wouldn't be able to withstand that onslaught. I already had buckets out in case of leakage. Thank goodness it held! But the noise, on the flat roof and against the windows... |

Spectre
Going through Craig's Bond movies :) I never really liked Spectre a lot but I guess it was very difficult to come back after something as good as Skyfall. I don't feel the chemistry between Bond and the woman either although in interviews both have said they do have it. Nevertheless it's a good movie. Daniel Craig still in shape and still a sight for sore eyes :) |

Thinking... it was good we had a shower just now! The garden needs it!
And first time in days that the temp indoors dropped below 27,5C. For now. It's been 30C and 30,5C for more days than I like. I'm going to save up for an AC for sure! |

Thinking... getting fed up with the heat!
Code Red today. Can't recall ever having Code Red :o There's a 3 day gig next to the beach, stone's throw away from me. 45.000 people a day. I cannot believe it didn't get cancelled... People could die standing on that asphalt, getting excited, drinking alcohol etc. etc. As for me... started the day of with 29,5C. Indoors... Where's the W wind when you need it?! |
