Good morning! It's a beautiful morning. It's going to be a very hot day, maybe even high 90s. They haven't predicted "triple digits" yet, but who knows! There's always a "chance" of afternoon storms in this heat, but no actual rain in the next week.
Yesterday: After morning routine stuff, it was just dialysis and work. After work we stopped for a few groceries, and that's as ambitious as my day got! LOL! I watched AGT, but didn't see anything that impressed me a lot. I also watched TheVoice. I guess I should have seen the whole thing, because I'm not especially impressed there either. I did organize some sewing projects. :)
Today: I've already been out this morning to do watering. In a short while we'll have breakfast, and then head out for Durham. It will likely be an all day trip, so I don't expect much to get done There's always tomorrow! LOL!
Today is "Shavuot / Feast of the Weeks (Jewish)" ... "Upsy Daisy Day" ... "World Ocean Day" ... "UN World Ocean Day" ... "Anniversary - Bill of Rights".
