Monday and A Trip to see Nancy

I slept well last night after I got the air conditioner working. It appears to be working now. Stephen is going to try to have someone come check out the thermostat tomorrow. He wanted to do it today but I knew how disappointed Nancy would be if I didn't make it down to see her. I had promised her we would come up to Caney for lunch at Eggbert's here where she could see people she knew. I will be gone early Wednesday too but will get my hair done at 9:00AM and then get right back home afterward. He will see when the air conditioning man can come. Right now it is working fine and the apartment is cool but who knows how long that will be the case. I really think it is the thermostat but of course, I don't know for sure. It just seems odd that I can turn it off and then back on and it will work again.

I stripped my bed and remade it and am washing the sheets and towels now and my pajamas and underwear. They are all in the dryer now. 

It's 6:40AM now and I have just been eating my breakfast here in the den. I will need to get milk today. I finished what I had on hand today.

It's August 1st so this is going to be another scorcher month.

Both cats were out there this morning for their breakfast. I took it out to them and they are eating hungrily.  And when I turned on the TV, the weather forecast was just coming on. I rushed in the den to get the phone to take a photo of it. 

Today is forecast to be 99 degrees and sunny. Tuesday will be 101 degrees and sunny, Wednesday will be 103 degrees and Mostly sunny, Thursday will be 96 degrees and partly cloudy, Friday will be 99 degrees and partly cloudy, Saturday will be 98 degrees and mostly sunny, Sunday will be 99 degrees and partly cloudy.  That's the weather forecast for the next week. In other words, no rain and hot, hot, hot. Definitely August!

The cats have eaten and are gone now. I will get that food in the garage before the ants find it. 

I got the laundry out of the dryer, folded it and put it away for another week and it's only 7:27AM.

It's 8:03AM now and I have just watered the flowerbeds again.   There no rain in the forecast this week and I will probably have to water morning and night again. I went out this morning and picked up the leaves from my neighbor to the south's leaves from his tree. I can always use the bending exercise.

If the yard dries this week, I will have it mowed.

More even later.... I watered all the flowers before I left. 

I didn't leave to see Nancy until 11;00AM. I had been reading and lost track of time. I got there at 11:30AM and had her dress so we could go to Caney and have lunch at Eggbert's there and then take a drive around town. She came to my apartment and we visited for awhile and then I took her back to assisted living  about 4:00PM.We had a nice visit and a nice drive. I bought gas at Miller Brothers there. It was $3.85 a gallon.

It's 5:41PM now. I am tired but I got a lot done today. Nancy was very happy to see me and she even saw people she knew at Eggbert's. After I left her I went to wash my car at Mr. Kleen in Bartlesville and then I vacuumed it out.  It's the best car wash around and they have a dozen vacuums so you can get it really clean.

I will vote tomorrow in the primary. I think it's at City Hall.

I checked over my check book. I will be glad when Wednesday the 10th is here. That's when I get my social security. I have bills to pay again. Luckily most of them are scheduled for later in the month.

I need to go get some milk. I am nearly out and don't have enough for breakfast tomorrow. 

So more later... 

I went to the market and bought milk and water. One of the boys there checking said he was a science buff and he tested the Caney water and found it had a lot of lead in it. I am glad I only drink bottled water and always have since I moved to Caney. I get a report from the city of Caney every year telling me there are two "chemicals" left in Caney water and so I have never drunk it. If one of the chemicals is lead, I am glad I don't drink it and never have.  

The air conditioning has been erratic today. I tried turning it off and on like yesterday but that didn't work when I tried it today. So I moved it off "auto" and on to "on" and it ran fine that way. Stephen said it might freeze up that way though so I put it back on "auto" and it started working again..  It's very erratic. But for now it's working.

I will be home all day tomorrow just in case the air conditioning man can make it.

The primary is tomorrow and I will vote at city hall if that is where they are holding it this time. I will go early so I can get back just in case the air conditioning man is available tomorrow.  I hope he calls me before he comes just in case there is a line to vote. I can always slip out of the line and go home if he is available.

It's 7:50PM now and I will take my bath and put my pajamas on and be prepared to go to bed at 9:00PM or so, My Kindle is charging again so I can't read again until it's charged.
