God morning, WITs! This heat wave is getting to me. I'm staying in the air conditioning as much as I can, but even indoors I feel off. Yesterday, I took several naps and had a headache. And psychologically, not being able to figure out how to plan my day is kind of stressful. Trying to get things done this morning before I wilt. Done -Watered the outdoor plants -Made macaroni salad -Started a load of laundry -Flip laundry -Put vinegar on weeds in gravel -Get out extra ice cube trays and fill them (in case the power fails) -Put up tier curtain in kitchen at DH's request, to block late afternoon sun. Previously just had a valance up. To Do -Boil some eggs -Do some kind of exercise -Read in library book Update: I am feeling better indoors with a wet towel around my neck.

Hi all... Hope everyone has a nice day.
Same here. It's warm, but I don't think it's nearly as hot here as where you are, but these days I don't seem to have much energy left in the afternoons, evenings. This morning I've done a lot of things. This afternoon? I doubt I'll do too much.
done this morning: -misc food prep -scooped a couple litters and refilled -watered the side yard things -waxed 4 window sliders -further prepared large pots for planting tomatoes.
opps... almost forgot the 'todo's weather permitting: -laundry -fill one easy green can -work on crafty project
-and maybe a nap.

Washed dishes. Made enough cornmeal pancake batter to last three or four meals; added dried-up blueberries, too! I got a free wall clock from a basement clean-out last week. Tried a different battery; clock still didn't work. Tested the battery, and it's good. Determined that I don't have the skills to figure out the problem. Tossed clock. Was someone hanging onto this in the hopes of fixing it someday? Who would do that?! Weed.Put away laundry.
Pay bills. Plan meals and make grocery list.Tomorrow: Go to library #1, library #2, and grocery store.
