It's Summer!

On Wednesday

On Wednesday, I went for my lab tests in the afternoon, at 3:30 p.m.  The afternoon high was 97F, according to the weather app, but, this is what the temperature gauge in the car showed when I pulled into the garage around 4:00 p.m., after the visit to the lab.  Admittedly, the asphalt on the road gets heated.

M was here in the early afternoon, on Wednesday, before I left for my lab tests and he watered the garden.  Not the ideal time of day to water the garden when it is so hot, but, it is when he has time for my garden on Wednesdays as he has other clients in the morning and later in the evening.  He promised he will do more weeding once the weather has cooled a bit.  I told him to do it at his convenience.

The rest of Wednesday was spent relaxing and taking it easy.   Daughter had a headache, although she worked through it.  Later, she made us a fruit smoothie using a banana, frozen strawberries and frozen peaches, for dessert.

On Thursday - Indoors

We went up to 97F again, today (Thursday), too.  This was the temperature inside the house; about 85F/29C.  I was comfortable at that temperature, but, daughter had a headache, again, so, after she finished work for the day, we put the a/c on in the bedroom and relaxed there.  In fact, I took a nap!  

It's been another fairly relaxed day.  I downloaded an e-book from the library and started to read it.  I caught up on some blog reading and commenting.  I made a stir fry for dinner and did the dishes.  I also started a grocery order to be picked up over the weekend.

I am writing this a little after midnight. and the outside temperature has gone down to 76F/24C.  I had several windows and the front door open to air out and cool down the house, but I closed them a minute ago.    The forecast says our highs will be 96F/36F for the rest of the week and there is a heat warning in effect.  But that's summer!  LOL.

Plans for Friday include taking Dancer for his Solensia injection in the afternoon.  Poor kitty is not going to like it!  

Today, I am grateful for:

- Working fans and other appliances
- The room air conditioning unit
- Electricity to run the appliances
- Afternoon/evening naps
- Libraries

Today's joyful activity was reading one of my library books.

How was your Thursday?  What are your plans for Friday?
