Day 65

Yep. I guess summer is really coming. The temperature was nice and warm today and switched to hot and humid in the afternoon as we got some thunderstorms this evening. Fortunately I got all my screens placed in the windows and I could enjoy outdoor sounds and fresh air all day long. I am glad that window job is over and I don't have to think about it until October/November when the windows go back in. 
Because I have been having cold/sinus issues, I decided not to go work at Hannah House. I will make the time up later in the week. I did drive over to Enon to take care of mailing a package to Wade, filling up the car with gas, and got some medicine for me at Rite Aid. Gas was down this morning to $3.97/gallon and I bought $50.00 worth of gas. I am glad I bought then because when I went out later this afternoon, the price had gone up to $4.12/gallon. The pills (generic imitation of Claritin D) have helped me greatly and I don't feel like my head is filled with cotton now. 
This is my first water-melon of the year. Although it was not as sweet as I would have liked, it was still very delicious and helped me to get in the mood for summertime. I enjoyed a big bowl with my lunch.  
I had Sonshine Club this afternoon. We only had about 45 kid today. And next week will be our last club meeting for the school year. We will be having a party with hot dogs, chips, ice cream, etc. If the weather cooperates it will be held outdoors. I enjoy Sonshine Club, but I am looking forward to having some more free time.
Tiffany called and we talked while she drove home from work. I enjoy hearing what's going on with her and Shelby & Sam. I'm looking forward to my next trip down there. We'll have to celebrate her birthday when I'm there, although it will be a belated birthday. 
Wade said that it's pretty hot over there. It was 105 or 106 today - or yesterday - so I don't think I should complain when it gets warmer than 80 degrees, right? He's been busy and his days are pretty much work, eat, sleep. Not a lot of recreation going on over there. I sure do appreciate the internet and facebook and skype to help me keep in touch with my best friend.

Yummy! The watermelon looks good. I bought us a cantalope tonight. How the heck do you spell cantalope? Cantaloup? Cantalope? Cantaloupe? It all looks wrong! Anyways, can't wait to eat it. Glad you posted already so I can go to bed on time tonight! LY, Tiff
