Wonderful Weather on Wednesday

It was an absolutely gorgeous day in Southeast Michigan! Highs were in the mid seventies with low humidity and a nice breeze.

It was the end of our record, though: 45 continual days with temperatures over 80 degrees F. (previously it was 42 days, set back in 1955). Of course, we can’t touch Dallas, Texas, who have had 42 days of temperatures over 100 degrees!

I noticed my downstairs floor was wet after doing the weekend wash, so I called Pat’s Sewer cleaning company. They said they could have somebody out there at 4:00 PM today. So, I had to leave work early.

He did show up and he’s been here before. He determined that the clog was between the house and the outside cleanout. So, he dragged his machine in the house and started chewing up tree roots. He was here until almost 6:00 PM and had quite an impressive amount of tree roots to show for his trouble. This time it cost me $150.00!

After he left, I went out back and cut the lawn with the riding mower. I finished up around 7:30 PM. I ate leftovers for dinner and watched a little TV, but I went to bed early. I did open the bedroom window to let some of that cool air in. Nice!
