Good Morning! Tuesday August 2, 2011

Good morning! It's a beautiful morning. It's creeping back up again towards that triple digit mark; today will be upper 90s. It will be much drier (less humid) today. That means lower heat index, but also no chance of rain.
Yesterday: I didn't get to everything on my list; but then, I knew I had an unreasonably long list to begin with. I did get a lot done, and made fairly significant progress on the new "project room". In the evening we went to a friend's son's birthday party. I didn't get anything done after that, but I'm satisfied for now with what did get done. :)
Today: It's a dialysis and work day again. I will stop by the pharmacy on the way in to drop off a few refill requests; but they don't need to be picked up right away, so we can go straight home after work. If work isn't too crazy, maybe I can dredge up some energy to do a bit more in the project room tonight. Or, maybe I'll just keep watching SYTYCD! LOL!

Today is "National Night Out" ... "Anniversary - Signing of Declaration of Independence Official" ... "Colorado Day (Colorado)" ... "Independence Day (Jamaica)" ... "National Day (Macedonia)" ... "Youth Day (Zambia)" ... "Sisters Day".
