Good morning! It's a beautiful morning. It's still going to be hot ... mid to upper 90s, humid, adn partly cloudy (but no mention of rain). The heat index will again be over 100. We're bordering on setting a "streak of hot days" record here. Well, thankfully, fall is only about a month away. (not that it actually cools down, but we can dream! LOL!).
Last night I didn't end up getting anything done but laundry. I start the day full of good intentions ... but get home and it's SO hot! LOL! So I get lazy. Oh well. Just 13 more Mondays, and then I'll have a little bit more time. In theory at least. :)
I hope tonight to get to start work on the chair seats, but not sure yet. If not, I'll try to find something instead of just sitting here. Maybe. :)
Today is "Meaning of "Is" Day" ... "National Thrift Shop Day" ... "Independence Day (Gabon)" ... "Independence Day (Indonesia)".
