Countdown to Spring, Weekly, Sun. 07/30 -- Sat. 08/05

Lovely weather today. It was in the 60's when I got up and is 78 now, and low humidity. Read the Sunday paper this morning and did some housework. Afternoon will be some self-care, more reading, and more housework.

It is 85 and after having the a/c off overnight we've turned it back on. Finally went to pick up my car. Nobody called that it was ready, and I called Friday and Saturday but got no return call. Husband called the dealership but couldn't talk to the general manager so a salesman, who said he gets complaints like this all the time sent an email to everyone in service to call us and someone finally did. The car was ready and probably had been since Thursday. Husband said we won't go there for service anymore. But car is home now. Got my lotto tickets on the way home. Mega Millions is a billion-dollar payout for one winner Tuesday night.

Lovely day here. Neighbor is getting a new roof today. Yesterday another neighbor had a tree cut down. It took them all day. Our area has a lot of trees. It is 82 and we don't have the a/c on, very pleasant. Not much else going on today.

Have the house opened up today. One cat is sleeping by an opened window in the living room. It is 81 and clouding up a little. We might get showers and thunderstorms later. Have done housework and reading today. When I get off of here, I need to so some paperwork. Our neighbor has a classic car from the 60's or early 70's and right now he is revving the engine.

It is 76 and overcast out. We might get showers and thunderstorms later today. This morning my husband and I went through most of a large closet and got rid of some stuff. Found some stuff from the mid-90's and from about 20 years ago that could go. Also, I admitted that some boxes of stuff were things I'd never use again so they also went. He ended up with space for what he wanted to store in the closet. He likes to get rid of things and I keep things so sometimes it's a tussle between us. This morning we both saw the deer that comes round to eat our apples eating birdseed straight from the feeder. They tip the feeder and let the seed fall into their mouth.
