Still stinking hot, very unusual for this time of year. The gorgeous green grass that was so healthy when I left work on Friday evening was scorched and brown when I returned on Tuesday. Out with the sprinklers. I'm still convinced that there's mainly two seasons here, stinking hot, and freezing cold. The in between times are too short to be called seasons in some years in my humble opinion. I have a nifty device in my drawer, an infra red thermometer. This shoots out a laser beam over a long distance and checks the temperature of the object without you having to touch it. Obviously very handy for a maintenance guy. Anyway, I took it outside. It's a lot cooler today than it has been, only mid 80's. But, the road surface was 127F, the concrete was 98F. Should have brought an egg in to fry.
Still working on my stuff, haven't slept very well for some time, and having really weird dreams, not especially nightmares, but in full color and very vivid. Often I end up not completing things I should do in the dream, so I wake up with a feeling of inadequacy. Help....doctor, nurse, why are you carrying that restraint?
My brain has been fried I think by the heat, and I'm forgetting and losing stuff everywhere. I also used good sheets for drop cloths instead of old ones when staining the deck, then dropped the good kitchen scissors somehow and smashed them...good old Mrs E, who managed a smile as she went to Target to buy new ones. Anyone else would have thrown me off the deck. (I deserved it). A very gracious, loving lady. What would I do without her?
