Good morning! It's a beautiful morning! It's "heat-pale" already, but quite clear and bright out. This will be yet one more triple digit day, with again the small chance of afternoon storms. We just have today and tomorrow of this, and then a dramatic change is coming!
Yesterday: Despite the heat, I had to do a lot of running around to get errands done. The car needed gas (imagine that! LOL!), and the local station was running out, so had to go farther. The rent got paid, the rest of the grocery shopping done; and all put up. I had to go back later to mail a package, and pick up grandson again. He likes being at our house now that we have a/c! LOL!
Today: The only errand left is to get trash bagged and to the dump. Hopefully I'll get more sorting done in my room while I have help! :) DGS and I want to do some shopping (farther from home) - maybe that will be a treat if the cleaning gets done. But so far, everyone is sleeping "in" this morning! :)

Good morning! It's a beautiful morning. Today will be in the low triple digits again (setting lots of heat records this summer & this year!!). It's bright and pale right now, and will be partly cloudy - and with the chance again of afternoon storms. Last night we finally got the edge of some storms, meaning some very welcome rain but without the severe winds.
Yesterday: DH had his morning appointment, and we made a refill stop at the drugstore. Then I took DH home (for a nap of course! LOL!), and DGS and I ran a few errands. I dropped him off with his dad and came on home - just too hot to do any more.
Today: I have to go pay the rent, and finish the grocery shopping (yesterday it was too hot to get the "cold stuff" too far from home. Today I'll go to a closer store). If my energy (and the a/c) hold up well enough, perhaps I'll continue working on a project area. Or maybe I'll sew or read! :)

Good morning! Or rather, good afternoon - my internet was "out" (no reason why, just unavailable) this morning. The high today should be low 100s - yes, triple digits again. And the "usual" chance of afternoon storms. Most of the storms have been north of me - some rain sure would be nice!
Yesterday: It turned into a fairly busy day after all. My grandson helped me clean the guest room and then start working on the sewing room. We got a lot done! Then we had family over for supper - take out fried chicken and barbecue! And, I got to see a few nice fireworks in the neighborhood (from the front door) plus watching a lot on TV.
Today: We've already been out to take DH to his appointment, and stop by the drugstore for refills. After some lunch, my grandson will go with me to run a few errands (while DH naps!), and then I will take him back to "visit" his dad! LOL!

Good morning! It's a beautiful morning. Even thought the sky is again "milky", it's very bright out. This will be another hot day (after yesterday surpassing predictions and being one more record-breaking triple digit day), upper 90s and maybe over the 100 mark again. It'll be cloudier, with a chance of afternoon storms.
Yesterday: Other than going out to retrieve the kitty from the vet, I did push myself to get out and take a load of trash to the dump. And, I was on the porch long enough to hang up some bunting. :) Otherwise, I busied myself with indoor stuff. Which is not to say I was very busy! LOL! Even with a/c, when it's so hot out it gets uncomfortably warm inside if I'm busy doing anything very active. Good excuse not to do that, right? :)
Today: Happy Birthday America! So today I have no clue what will happen when. I will get the "routine" stuff done - dishes, clean the bathroom, general pickup. Some family (a lot of kids! LOL!) are coming over at some point in the afternoon. I'm not going to try to cook, so will go pick up fried chicken and barbecue. Tonight I plan to watch fireworks on TV - just have to decide what channel; or flip a lot between Boston, DC, and New York! :)

Good morning! It's a beautiful morning. Though the forecast is for the day to start out mostly sunny, it's actually a bit "milky" looking. We got a break from triple digits yesterday, and might today - not that upper 90s is *that* much better! LOL! The afternoon should start clouding up, with slight chances of showers, so it will still be humid today.
Yesterday: Once I got home from taking Butter to the vet, I really didn't get a lot done. I "flitted" around from place to place, and finished up a few previously begun projects.
Today: I'll leave soon to pick up the kitty and bring him home. I will have to take a load of trash, and then go to the grocery store. Other than that, I have 2 areas in the house I need to tackle, so hopefully my energy/motivation level will hold up for at least one of them. :)

Good morning! It's a wonderful morning. July sure is starting off with a big bang! Today it will be "cooler", at only around 100 (or perhaps 102). Severe storms crossed north of me last night, but only a light shower here. The sky is "heavy" in places this morning; and there's a good chance of storms by afternoon again.
Yesterday: It was nice not to have to go out anywhere! I had a mostly lazy day ("recuperating from Saturday!) - but I actually managed to get quite a few of the little random things done that have been piling up.
Today: Early (for me) this morning I took Butter to the vet. For the rest of the day I'm not yet sure what I'll do. I have a long list of "should" do of course! At some point I will take the trash I bagged yesterday to the dump. Hopefully I will tackle a few more areas that need cleaning. But wait. It's summer. I'm retired. Maybe I'll read a book! LOL!

Good morning! It's a beautiful morning. It seems a bit "milky" - might be just from the heat. This will be our 3rd day of record heat, with a predicted high of 105 (meaning possibly 107 here). The humidity is higher - possible afternoon storms - with a heat index of maybe 110.
Yesterday: It was a busy day, with way too much running around in the heat. My DGS and I got out nice and early and got to the vendor show with plenty of time to set up. It was a very nice venue. Sadly, the heat kept people in, except those who came to the swimming pool (same complex). We had a lot of "window-shoppers" in bathing suits and towels! LOL! At least it was nice to visit with some friends and make some new ones. After the show we had to load up, get home, and unload quickly to not have my chocolate in the heat any longer than necessary. After a bit of rest, I took DGS back to his dad, with a stop at KFC on the way. At the last minute DH didn't want to go, so I just delivered DGS and food, and came home by way of the Grill for 'burgers and 'dogs for us! :)
Today: I don't have any particular plans for today. I'm so far behind on cleaning I don't even know where to start. I might make a list of at least the most "critical" areas ... and then, of course, rest up from the effort of list-making! LOL!
