Good morning ohblondie, I sure hope that back pain gets better.
Well, somehow the forecasts for 88 degrees for today have been changed to 79 degrees! Another proof of bad forecasting, but I'll gladly take this one! I have the exhaust fan on for the first time in weeks, and it's bringing nice cool air in.
I've been out to bring books to the little library, I went early because I forgot to go down looking for mail last night--but there was no mail in my box, and none in four out of the other five boxes so either we didn't get a delivery or else everyone else went down for theirs yesterday. That would be unusual, there's always mail visible in the other boxes so I'm guessing we didn't get a delivery.
Today I have mid-day work but don't need to go anywhere else. I'm eating breakfast, and afterwards, I'm going to do some LR PEEPing which I never got to yesterday because of all my time on the phone.

Hello scholar, what is the weather like there?
I'm home from my walks, and a side trip...to Aldi! When I got to my senior client's house she said she called the corporate headquarters to find out when our store will open again was told that is had opened already! I missed it because I never go in that direction for any other reason, so I didn't see any signs.
So after my walks I went there--it is very nice, they changed the layout of the whole outer aisles of the store, they do have more refrigerators and more fresh & frozen foods. They did not have pre-made salads, which I was hoping for, only a couple of varieties of pre-cut fruit--and they didn't look all that appealing. But I did buy a shopping bag full of stuff, that was all I could carry since I didn't have my cart with me. So now I'm stocked up on basics.
It was definitely cooler today, but just as humid, so it was still uncomfortable walking. I hadn't planned on using the air conditioner today but was so uncomfortable after I got home that I put it on, I'll watch the weather and see if it gets better later so I can shut if off.
I'm finishing up lunch now. My sister will be calling later so we can do her grocery order, so I'd better try to get something done now, I can sit down and rest while talking to her.

I ran something to my car and it was cooler outside. I think rain later today or tomorrow for me.

My sister called, then my senior client called and wanted to know everything about the remodeled Aldi. So I told her about it, but said--go there yourself and see it! She has a car, it's not a big deal for her to go there.
Next:
Clean up from lunch Put groceries away Empty dehumidifier tank Put dry dishes away from yesterday

Now my shopping friend called. After a couple of weeks of my wishing I could go shopping, she offered a ride tomorrow! I said no, because I am just not prepared for a major shopping trip, I have too much of a mess in my apartment right now and would not be able to enjoy the outing, AND I just shopped at two different stores in the last 3 days. Luckily, she said we could look at the weather on my days off next week and could maybe go on one of those as long as the weather is not too hot and not raining.
I'm considering this day a total bust--with all the time on the phone, and now the debates are on in half an hour--I won't just sit and watch them, but I will be sort of hanging around the tv listening for anything of interest. What I do is try to work in the living room, and if I gather things to take to other rooms I just do it quickly and come right back.
I will figure out something quick to make for dinner and prepare it now.

its crazy hot here, 94 today, heat advisories everywhere, BUT no humidity, so I don't know what everyone is complaining about, ! The inside is up to 80*, and its not bothering me at all. Tomorrow will be even hotter, but then it will cool down considerably, because the heat brings in the fog.
So, I got DM's announcement done. Very satisfying, I'm glad to be able to give back to DPs for all of their support. DM was thrilled to be able to delegate the whole thing to me, and work on painting.
I probably won't get much else done tonight either, not sure if the debates are going to be aired live on the West Coast or not.
ETA: yup!

Good evening scholar--wow, I thought it would be nice and cool by you! I guess we're all waiting for the fall cool down.
Okay, I ate dinner, now I will work while watching the debates.
Next:
Put phone away (I certainly hope I'm done with it for the day!) Update planner and lists Open windows--it's now a bit cooler outside than it is inside Finish from last list--put groceries away

I still need to medicate and feed the cats, and I think I will give fluids to my old cat too.
Good night, see you in the morning!
