Hello everyone. I hope your day is off to a good start. It is 68 degrees F and dark here at the Jersey Shore. The high for today is 84 degrees F and some thunderstorms are expected. I hope that the rain knocks some of this crud from the wildfires out of the air.
I woke up at 5am which while not ideal on summer break is better than 2 and 3 am like its been for the past 2 weeks. Hopefully this trend continues. I will try my best not to nap today.
I plan to get over to the pool today after 3 days off. I am very dark but the redness from the sunburn is gone. I enjoy a good thunderstorm but I hope that they hold off until later in the afternoon. I'd like to float around for a bit.
Aside from the pool my big plans are just to place a grocery order, clear some stuff out of the fridge, and take out garbage/recycles. The whole dragging them down 2 flights of stairs and around the building to the dumpsters is surely the worst part of living on the 3rd floor. At the house I used to just open the back door and drop them in the garbage can.
What's everyone else up to today?

Good morning. It is currently 70F in my part of Missouri this morning with a RealFeel of 72F. We have winds at 10 mph and storms moving in.
Pretty and I have been talking about driving over to Marionville (about 6 miles away) this morning when the farmer's market there opens. I'd like to get some freestone peaches and a watermelon. IF we get there, it will be the first watermelon we've bought this summer.
We'll get groceries Monday. I warned Pretty about buying lettuce last night. I may forego fruit this time, too, just in case. We have frozen fruit here and canned fruit. That should last us a couple of weeks, easy.
I changed the trash bags during the night so those bags need to go out sometime... Trash pickup here is during the night Tuesday night/Wednesday morning.
I hope you have a great day. Enjoy the pool time!

I had lunch and got some things to eat without much fiber in them for the week.
Although, I will say the tomato curry soup I had for dinner was great!
