We our skipping our walk this morning. I'm saving my strength to finishing trimming the bushes out front, before the sun comes over the trees. I only got half of it done yesterday, before I had to call it quits.
Other than that, I guess I'll attempt a few inside chores. We'll see.
I really feel for those who work outside, or those who don't have a cool place to be.
Happy Tuesday.

Hot and humid. No breeze. It's already 88° and it's only 9:30 am. I parked a little farther than I have to so I could be in the shade. It's too hot to work in the yard in the afternoon. I guess I'll do stuff on the weekend.
Afternoons are brutal, SB. Wait until the weekend, so you can get out there early.
I got started with feeding and watering the front plants at 6:35am. Finished that chore, and started trimming at 7 am. I was done trimming at 7:45, just as the sun came over the top.
So, I got cooked while I raked and bagged the leaves. But, at least the hard part was done. Finished the front at 8:45. I'm a sweaty, dripping mess. But, before I get my shower, I'll go out back, and water all my plants. At least I have good shade in the backyard.
Take it easy in the heat and humidity, my pretties! I know how unfun it is!
Went to the equivalent of your city hall today to see what is happening concerning health insurance. New laws from Oct and new ways to pay. Anyway, got my questions answered and noticed that since I am obviously not a teenager, the woman at the counter spoke rather LOUDLY and explained to me as if I were a child or slightly impaired. I have noticed this a lot lately - must be showing my age. But, I notice that I can use this to my advantage at times. Help the poor old guy out - am I being evil??? LOL
I've been given a senior discount a couple times, I don't mind.
I have also noticed when I'm walking with my cane, people are generally nicer, or maybe more patient.
Hey, just think of it this way, when they do this, you have the advantage in the situation.
