Hot and now wet!!

Wow, what a crazy week of weather!  So, it was hot again, reached as high as 105 degrees around here and then several days of 100 degree temps.  Though we have had these before but at the same time it is rare and usually only have 1 or 2 days a year getting that hot.  But to have this many is both not good and extremely rare.  I hope this is not the new trend for our future because if so, we are in trouble.  And what is also new is this humidity!  We are not a humid state and though it has been low (like 10% or less), we can feel it and it is simply not normal for us at all.  And, toward the end of the week we had RAIN!  Finally the rain but it was still in the 90's with rain and that is just not right.  When it rains, it's supposed to be cold so this felt like taking a shower with low water pressure.  I don't know what is going on anymore!!

Weekly Update:
House of clutter... that is what I have, again.  I was making some great progress decluttering but then I had to get my mom's things and now the house is full again.  So much stuff to go through and then figure out what to do with it after.  No way giving it to Goodwill, that business is a sham... because the only thing they do for the community is provide jobs.  People give them free inventory and they sell it for 100% profit, how do you people not realize this?  So need to find something like the Salvation Army or maybe a veterans group that can use it to give it to those vets in need and their family.  Of course my mom's clothing taste skew older so maybe older vets would appreciate it.  We will see but have so much to go through and sort!

At the movies:
New at the #1 spot is Barbarian with 10 million to open which is a pretty common number post-Summer box office, but not much else on this film so it will be a quick burn.  Also new at #2 is Brahmastra Part One: Shiva for 4.4 mil, again a fair number post- Summer and another quick one in and out.  Speeding up to #3 is Bullet Train with 3.3 mil and now very close to 100 mil cume, will continue to work it's way there when it is said and done. Dipping back down to #4 is Top Gun: Maverick With 3.2 mil as it solidifies it's place in the 700 mil domestic box office. Holding ground but dropping down to #5 is DC League of Super-Pets with 2.8 mil as it struggles to get to 100 mil, still unlikely to get there.

New movies that did not make the top 5:
Just one this week as Lifemark comes in at #7 with 2.2 mil.  It only came on to 1500 screens but the per average is... weak.
