Since Jeannie & Donald were taking the girls to Santa Cruz for the day, they wouldn't be going to the gym. I decided I would go on my own because I've been feeling so good for a couple of days after exercising. It wasn't at all crowded at 10:30 am and I got through what I wanted to do fairly quickly. Instead of stopping at a couple of stores I need to go to, I came right home for a protein shake to help build those muscles that became flabby with non-use.
I saw my window cleaning supplies in the kitchen so I finished up on the "sunny" side of the house before the sun hit the windows. There is so little humidity now that the Windex spray almost dries before I can wipe it with a towel. In fact, I washed some of the windows twice because they dried so fast.
Well that is finished, but I can hear my mother asking me why I'm cleaning the windows and leaving dirty curtains up. In fact I hate these curtains - they are old and yellowed and ugly, and I'd like to replace them. It's just one of those things that keeps getting pushed aside. There used to be an "Anna's Curtains" here in Rancho, but they closed the store and I would have to drive a ways to get to the only other one.
i just made a trip to Target and other than my Chiquita bananas didn't find anything I liked. Their prices have certainly escalated, and considering their recent troubles with hackers, they may lose a lot of their customer base. For myself, I buy a few things there once in a while but in no way do I consider myself a Target shopper. I wouldn't dream of using any kind of a card there - cash only!
It's going to be a hot one today, so I'm planning on taking it easy. It is already too warm to sit outside in the shade, but my house is still comfortable with the fan on. The swamp cooler will be running before long.
- A Short Update
When I think I'm going to write just a short piece, it ends up getting quite wordy! I can't help it. Update on chiropractic care - I am noticing, and the doctor says that my posture is improving quickly. Jeannie had to have a...
- Heat Wave
It is 90F just a little before 4pm, and will probably go a bit higher. It will get hotter during the next two days, maybe even hitting 100! I can barely stand this kind of heat although my swamp cooler plus a fan and several open windows...
- Fired Up The Swamp Cooler
Before the temperature got to the high of 91F today, I decided to turn on the swamp cooler. In just a couple of minutes I could feel the difference, and could lower the fan from high to low. I keep a couple of windows open in the kitchen and...
- The Primer Is On
Between Jeannie and me, mostly Jeannie, we got the primer on ceiling and walls. We even did the wall that needs to be replaced, because I won't have the money to do the job right for another year and will just go with what is there. Strategically...
