Boy was it hot yesterday. I've been staying in the AC; and that hot, humid air hit me in the face when we went out.
I had a routine doctor's visit yesterday. She wants me to have a new MRI; but I don't want to have any of my tests or labs done until after we get back from our trip.
After the appointment we went out to eat at Olive Garden. We always get the salad with no onions and the bread sticks without salt. I had a delicious dinner of rigatoni with a 5-cheese marinara and grilled chicken. Hubs was not impressed with his spaghetti and meatballs.
Shopping online for various things for our trip -- rolling duffle bag, backpack and swim trunks for hubs...many of the summer things are sold out.
Today is Friday the 13th. Do you get nervous on those days? What's new in your world?

@LadyDuck Yes! It's going to be 79 degrees Fahrenheit (26 degrees Celsius) today and no more of that awful humidity. This will last at least a couple of days.

@LindaOHio It’s humid today. Have to play pickleball soon and don’t relish dripping. Oh, well. At least it’s not snowing.

@DianneN That's for sure. I'll take the heat over the cold any day....and I like the longer days anyway!

It's not quite as hot now; but it's still very humid. The 13th doesn't bother me either.

@NJChicaa — a friend of mine, who’s Italian and actually likes Olive Garden, sent me this meme.

same old thing. Rain and bad luck. I can't blame it on the 13 th because that hasn't always been a bad day.

Sorry you're having a run of bad luck. We have a cold front that went through last night; and the weather is much nicer today.

I love Friday the 13th, and really anything with the number 13 in it. Thirteen is my favorite number, and also happens to be the jersey number of every sport I've ever played.

Check out TJ Maxx. They may have stuff.
I haven't been to Olive Garden in a long time. The few times I was there I enjoyed the food.
Good idea to postpone your tests.

Crazy heat wave all over. Glad you got your doctor appointment done. Always good to enjoy a meal out. Good for you. Too bad your husband was not impressed with his. Olive Garden is one visited often, haven't been in awhile but plan to return soon for those breadsticks especially.
I have found many things, even some grocery items are getting low.

The cold front has moved through; and the weather will be tolerable today and tomorrow. We were able to score everything we were looking for on Walmart.com. Took a lot of looking; but that's OK. Have a good weekend.
