I just turned on the air conditioning in the office. It is humid and sticky here. More than likely it will be easier to study with some coolness. Jane and I are going to meet at Wendy's instead of the lake because there is a possibility of showers. I will be past my halfway mark by Monday and so the new company I will work for will begin the hiring process, asking for documents, doing a background check, etc. So that is how my day will go. Coffee, or maybe a Frosty and cookie, who knows. I have an important phone call at 11. I have to eat in order to take my medicine morning and evening. I made eggs and smothered them with chili. One piece of whole wheat bread alongside it all. I hope to get to read more here today along with everything else.

We started leaving the air conditioning on at a low speed now... It is just too muggy in the house if we don't leave it running but I did set the temp at 77F instead of 72F like it was normally set during the Summer. I hope you enjoy your day.

It has been a good day. I run the office a/c at 74. Bedroom I may just put on the fan tonight. We have a window unit in each "bedroom". One is an office and one is a craft room. I only run them when I am in there.

@GardenGerty I was happy Pretty went out and mowed part of the yard before it started storming this afternoon. We have two window air conditioners that we used in our last house. This house has a Trane Heater/Air conditioner so the window units aren't needed.

I’m so glad Jane is feeling up to meeting today. And boy, chili over eggs sounds really good.

We went to Wendy's in Hillsboro. So that is a 25 mile drive for me, a little less for her. She has an upper respiratory infection and we both end up with "things" that make our lives stressful. Visiting is good for both of us. We have been friends for about forty years.

What I am studying actually is training that also applies to my school work and will make me a better employee all around. I will work this other job as a part time second job. It is local, I am told. Your 30 C is equivalent to 86 F which is the type of temperature we are having. If I was outside, I would not mind it and to me, it feels cooler. Since I have to be inside working on the computer for a couple of reasons it feels hot. My office space is on the west side of the house.

Man! we have not hit 100 yet! I am thankful for that. We have had some damp days but not a super lot. Where my brother lives in Guthrie, Oklahoma they have had heavy rains for three days now.

We run our AC but keep it a little warmer. We offset that with our ceiling fans. I'm glad you are moving along with your studies. Hope all works out well for you. Have a good weekend.

At home I had a cup of coffee, like every day. I drink it with no milk or sugar, but I like a little cinnamon in it.

You are a little further north than I am. I run a/c much less than many I know.

It is too stuffy in here in the office. I had to do it for the sake of my brain. Not using anywhere else yet, though.

I had a "Frosteeccino" and french toast sticks. I am glad you can go sit in some air conditioned places.

@GardenGerty oh that sounds so good, everything sounds good right now though. We won't be able to now for the rest of the month because no gas in the truck.
