Thursday, July 31

4:25 a.m. - I had trouble sleeping again last night.  I woke up and started thinking about today - mostly getting new tires on the trailer.  I do have some things I need to do beyond just getting over to Discount Tire and getting the new tires installed.  I probably should write up a list of things to do.

Yesterday ...what did we do yesterday?  I went and rode through some of Anne's and Amber's morning bus route.  Then there was a meeting of administrators to discuss attendance policies and procedures.  Then I had to go to an eye appointment that went okay except for the accident that occurred in the parking lot of Milan Medical just after I had pulled in.  Then it was back to ICE after picking up one prescription that was done.  Then I went home, had a little workout in the basement, and then the Southwell grandchildren arrived.  I guess maybe I went to bed too early after turning in after they left.

The best news is that the heat wave is going to break.  Today's temps are a lot cooler than in recent days.  So I hope to get a good day in .... the tires changed smoothly and then setting up the camper at Loud Thunder after that.  I do need to mow the yard, but I'm not sure if that will be today or tomorrow.
