5:42 a.m. - It's a snow day! Well, no, it's not a snow day, but school has been canceled today - this time due to the heat. I'm a little surprised that this decision was made, but the buildings will be very warm today after an entire weekend of hot, humid conditions.
Yesterday I didn't know we would be getting a day off, so I worked to get all of my work done, as well as getting a good workout in. Perhaps it was good that I didn't know we would be getting Monday off. I started the morning with an hour on my bicycle. I'm still not confident in being able to make it up big hills, but I do feel the left calf getting stronger. After the bike ride, I went over to the school and completed a resistance workout. All the equipment I need is there, so that was good to try out. The grass was still wet when I got home, so I worked on scraping the deck to the mower to get it ready, and then I did some work on the pool by putting away the cleaning robot. I did read my book a little, and then I decided I would just get the yard done. It was really, really hot, so I was soaked in sweat yet again. I decided to take advantage of the pool and just cool off that way. Then I grilled up the steaks I had bought on Friday and had some supper. All this was done so I could watch the Bears play. The Bills didn't play starters, so the Bears looked pretty good against the Bills scrubs. I actually fell to sleep in the second half before making my way to bed.
Today? I did get a visit to mom and dad, so I'll make a visit there today. Other than that, I'm not sure what the day will bring. Amber was talking about going to lunch and casino, but we'll see.
