Monday was another hot, sticky day here in Southeast
Michigan, with the usual threat of storms in the afternoon as the heat caused
the air to be unstable.
I went to the Newburgh Grill for lunch and had a gyro and
fries. It was excellent as usual. Then I went back to work (too hot for even
driving in the park) and read my book in the air conditioning.
So, when I came home, I worked inside the house for a
change. I stripped the bed and threw everything in the washer. Then I cleaned
the stovetop.
Next I finished vacuuming the office, bedroom and main bath.
I had to keep digging cat hair out of the vacuum whenever it started to lose
suction. Then I washed all the wood floors. I put the bedding in the dryer on
my way out to the garage. It was around 7:30 PM.
I took the garbage can out to the road. I figured it had cooled off enough to cut the front lawn, so
I did that next. Then I used the string trimmer to clean it up a bit more.
Back inside, I was damp with sweat again. Since I just
made the bed up with clean sheets, I decided to take a rinse-off shower. Then I
finally ate supper. I warmed up one of the Polish sausages I’d grilled. I ate that with grainy
mustard and some pasta salad on the side.
I watched the Detroit fireworks on Channel 4 while reading a
magazine that had come in the mail. It never did rain here, although I saw on
the news here were thunderstorms in Sterling Heights. I went to bed around 11:30
PM.
