Weather Wise

I hope it cools down -- soon!

After my last post, we lost power twice in a 24 hour period, late Friday evening (3 hours)and then on Saturday afternoon (2 hours).  Saturday afternoon was not too bad, it was still light out, it is when it is night and you lose it that is the problem.

I call the electric company immediately when the power goes off and they always tell me that if they do not hear from the other neighbors, I am last on the list to fix. Most of the neighbors are on vacation so of course, they can't call.

Strange urge of a habit I have of wanting to clean in the dark when the power is off, that or play the  piano to entertain myself.

Hot and Humid!

Yes, I am hot! and a bit hazy too.
Very uncomfortable weather and I don't like to use the computer when it is like this.

Since it is so late in the summer, with this sort of weather happening now (rather than earlier, we had several weeks of constant rain), I wonder if we are going to get more of this type of weather come September since we seem to be a bit off the typical weather pattern from years past.

Learning to Drive

My daughter is -- we have to cruise for 30 daylight hours and 10 night time hours.
She is doing very well.

It is bad enough I am living in the van driving them both around, now some more driving time.

Maybe I need a Winnebago instead and just move into it.

But the good thing is that she can eventually drive around herself!
I can send her to the store (miles away in the next town) and then have some alone time in the house!

Something to look forward to!
