Good evening from a hazy smoky Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA. Our air quality was at 193 earlier today. It's 157 right now. So, we've gone from the red unhealthy category to the orange unhealthy for some category. The alert was to be canceled at noon today. It was extended to noon tomorrow. It was a good day. I woke at 5:21 this morning after 7 hours of sleep. When I opened my eyes and saw daylight, I knew it was late. However -- I'm thankful for getting the notifications done early this morning. It's always fun visiting your world with you and seeing what you're doing, especially with the bad air quality that's affecting most of the US. I'm thankful I got my game played before it was time to go down to the community room for Canasta. I'm thankful for Canasta. My partner and I won again this week. It was a close and fun game. I'm thankful for the work I did on Guns of War. It's coming along well. I think I got three pages done before I closed it down. I'm thankful for a wonderful conversation with a former myLotter who lives south of me in Illinois. You might remember her, Debbie @Corbin5. She's doing well. I keep her up to date with what's going on in my neck of the woods. Their air quality alert will be canceled at midnight. Okay, that's my day. I see I have notifications again to take care of before I get off the computer for the day. What are you thankful for today? Thanks for reading. The image belongs to me. A sky picture from yesterday. Don't be fooled by the blue. Though the smoke did make some interesting pictures.

Congratulations, I am glad you won at Canasta. Did Debbie close her account here? I cannot find her entering the username you tagged.

I miss Debbie and her posts here. Glad that you both keep in touch We still have a red alert for air quality and will remain there through the weekend. I think it is worse than it was a couple of weeks ago for our area. I am thankful nothing catches God by surprise as it does us. We were able to get a newer car today as our van transmission went out on us.

Our air quality was better yesterday; but it was terrible in Cleveland. Congratulations on the Canasta win. I'm always thankful for my husband. Have a great day.

It amazes me when I look at the forecast map how the jet stream misses some people and clobbers others. Thank you. It was a very good game. Fun too. I'm glad you're thankful for your husband.

I wish she would come back. She probably wouldn’t remember me, but I liked her, and I am glad she is doing well. Today, I am extremely grateful that I went all seven places I needed to go, and got it all done before 1pm. Sure, it was hot, but not as hot as it would have been if I hadn’t awakened early.

I wish she would too, but that's not to be. Molly still takes over her bathroom in summer. I'm glad you got everything you needed to do done before the extreme heat set in.

I sure hope that you get clear air sooner rather then later as the smoke shifts.
