Yep, it’s a hot one out there. And for some stupid reason, the ice cream place here is closed on Saturday’s. It boggles the mind.
Today I went to SlightlyBiggerTown, to do some grocery shopping, and of course to do a teensy tiny drug deal.
Since SlightlyBiggerTown is at least 30 minutes away, I can’t buy ice cream. I might go up to the gas station to see if they have power. But they’re probably closed by now.
So, I’ll sweat, and drink mostly cold water.
Happy summer!
Yeah, it’s warm. It’s 99f or 37c here. It’s warm enough that I can’t concentrate on reading because the book is sticking to me, and I’m sticking to it. My mom is considering putting the cats out in the trailer, where she can turn on the AC.
She asked me this morning to think about something light and cool to make so she’s not standing in front of the stove all night. I suggested that I can BBQ, and take all the heat. She didn’t want more leftovers, she she’ll be reheating chilli and making some Kraft Dinner.
Thankfully, usually about 7ish, it starts to cool off a little bit. At least it did last night. With the heat so bad, a lot of the people that I usually see walking around, are staying indoors. I mean it’s hot, yes. But there’s no humidity! It’s a dry heat baby!
It’s morning here again. It’s gone up 3 degrees in an hour, and is supposed to be as hot as it was yesterday. I slept on top of my blankets all night, and was very comfortable for the evening. I didn’t even need to put a t-shirt on, just a pair of shorts and I was good to go.
I was planning on mowing the lawn today, but it’ll be just to darn hot out there, even on the ride on mower. But for right now, before it gets too hot, I’m watching TV, and drinking some covfefe. I’ve already taken the trash out, so that’s a win in my book.
So I finished NOS4A2 yesterday afternoon. It was not the ending I thought going to happen. It was good though. I enjoy Joe Hill’s writing style. It’s a lot like his father’s, but better. I’m re-reading “Night Film” by Marisha Pessl. My first read of it was rather rushed, so it’s a book that I’ll read before bed. I think I made it about 20-25 pages before I was nodding off. It’s a better book to read before bed, than say, “Fellowship of the Ring”.
Update: it’s now 12:30, and it’s 35c or 95f
It’s been a busy day here at Shady Acres, and a hot one. Up at my normal time, walked right into my mom, who was a little chatty, but thankfully was on her way back to bed. I made and drank most ofy coffee is beautiful peace and quiet. It was glorious.
While mom was sleeping, my dad called and said the internet guy w9uld be there in about 10 minutes, so I woke up my mom, and we let him in and let him do his work. While he was he I managed to get two phones, an iPad, and a laptop all up and running on the WiFi. Just gotta set up dad’s iPad when he gets home. Mom’s very happy to be able to use her laptop again.
It’s gotten hot here today. It’s currently 35c (or 95f), and we have some melty cats. I’m trying not to move too much. I think for the rest of the day, I’m just gonna read and drink ice water.
