With the 2,300+ words I added to my new story today, I topped 20,000 for the month so far. And I did this while finishing my presentation for the Lions Club meeting I've been asked to present at on Thursday. I guess I can be productive when I try. I went out and watered our baby trees just before dark tonight. They are doing well despite the lack of rain thanks to the missus and me keeping them watered. The pumpkin volunteers she transplanted are growing well, too. We hope to have a few of our own pumpkins this fall. I did not hear from the septic guy today. If I haven't heard from him by mid-morning tomorrow, I will give him a call. I don't mind conserving water. We should do it anyway. But right now we're taking to an extreme so as not to flood the tank again. I hope your Tuesday went well. For those of you already on Wednesday, I wish you the best. For those of us for whom it is Tuesday night, I bid you good night.

We have people on here who are experiencing one of every one of the 24 hours I think.

I think you are correct. I wonder if it would violate terms if I asked people to respond with their time zone as + or - GMT.

@JudyEv I played it safe and built the question into a full discussion post. I believe you've already responded. At last count, we'd covered 5 of the 24 time zones.

@DWDavis I can't see that anyone would object. But you never know - people are funny, sometimes.

I did not writing but I did get a few hours of research in and learned so much more that I already knew.

Research can be the best part of the writing process.

That would be nice, and quite an incentive to give up the day job.

The Lions Club magazine always has some wonderful stories in it of how Lions are bringing sight and hope around the world.

You plant and nurture baby trees...I pull them out by the handful. My yard wishes to be a forest of yellow poplar, maple, and hickory trees. Good job on the 20,000 words!

The 4 baby trees are evergreens we've planted along the fence line to, eventually, provide a visual in addition to the physical barrier. The sweetgum, poplar, and live oak seedlings we mow.

Thanks. I am hoping to hear from him early. I have an appointment for service on the missus car right after lunch.
