Hot and humid at the BOL today, although slightly less than Houston, if I get lucky. It was hot yesterday in Houston, and dripping wet. Just standing around outside had my shirt soaked with sweat. The humidity just makes it miserable. We’ll get more too, before the summer is done.<\/p>\n
I spent the day doing pickups, and running errands before heading to the BOL to do some work. I had to hit Lowes for some lumber and plywood, and grabbed some closeout plumbing supplies too. I always check the clearance aisle and yesterday I hit paydirt. They had a bunch of sharkbite fittings marked down to 1\/4 or 1\/3 of retail. Since I’ll eventually need to finish my master bath remodel, I picked up a bunch of stuff.<\/p>\n
Also swung by the chiropractor, and the HEB for some groceries. Nothing really good on sale at the HEB this visit.<\/p>\n
I also dropped the dog off at a friend’s house for the week, and loaded up the truck. By the time I got all that done, and did the minimum housecleaning that would keep me alive when my wife gets back, it was after 10pm. Kinda late to be heading up, but I figured at least I’d be here in the morning.<\/p>\n
And I’ve got a bunch of work to do. The grass is knee high. It’s gonna be slow going bushwhacking that. Then I’ll start looking at the list, with heavy weight given to tasks in the shade or in the house. I do not want to hurt myself in the heat.<\/p>\n
Maybe I’ll find some time to write and AAR for the past two months. I did learn a few things.<\/p>\n
Always be learning new things. And stacking the knowledge as well as the stuff.<\/p>\n
