Oh, crap, watering plants, I should have done that before it got hot. Maybe after sunset. Although that's getting late for me to be doing stuff with my get up early and run before work plan. Hm.

Still sorting laundry, although I can see an end to it not too far off, I think.

Go -t! Conquer Laundry Mountain!

I have started actually washing! Exciting!

Good god I have a fuckload of clothes. But having sorted them all I can say with some certainty that I have a lot of cute stuff to wear. When it's clean.

No more clothes shopping for me for quite some time. I must be stern with myself.

Went and got my hair cut and colored and then to Lowes to by plants for the backyard. Now I'm too hot to plant them. While I was out, the DH did all the laundry--very happy to to deal with that!

I have been shopping all day. Went to Walmart, GNC, grocery twice, and I know I am forgetting something. I hate shopping!

Anyway, there is a positive to this story. At my grocery store the neighbors and I have complained about the rotten employees for years and today I had 3!! individual employees that were pleasant and chatty and delightful. Seriously I think they must have new management or something.

One young man, maybe a teen, had a long discussion with me about the tea varieties and how he had been sampling them and compared our favorites. Another young man had compliments for my hair color. And the woman who got the ladder and helped me get down ball jars chatted about the bumper crop of yummy mangoes this year. It was such a change for this store.

Pretty sweet, Scrappy.

How nice, Laura! I hope it keeps up.

Tried the serrated-knife-between-two-plates method of slicing grapes. It didn't not work, I guess, but I'll probably stick with my usual method of deciding that whole grapes are fine in the future.

Car is clean. New Last Tango in Halifax in minutes!

Oh, really? And me with time to set the DVR. Thanks!

I have vacuumed and de-pollened my car, now I can take it to the car wash tomorrow. Three loads of dishes and five of laundry (not put away yet). One bookcase put together, and recycling is already out. Oh, and groceries bought and put away (if I'd had the foresight, I would have cleaned the fridge out first).

I was a bit saddened that after emptying out the car that I didn't find my rhinestone cat-eye sunglasses. Nor my plain brown shades, so I'm still stuck with wearing my pink frames, which is fine, except they're a little loose and constantly fall off my head.

Hey, the temperature on the patio is down to 90, woohoo!

I will celebrate by...making stew? Yeah, apparently that's what I'm doing.
