We went out yesterday afternoon for about five hours. It was almost
pleasant, but it was on the edge of too hot for me. Right now, it is 88F
and quite humid, and two days in a row of that kind of heat wipes me
out. So, we're cleaning the inside of the house today. So far, I've
cleaned up the kitchen, cleaned out and washed the fridge, washed the
kitchen floor, emptied all the litter boxes, cleaned them, and vacuumed
the dining room and hallways. Now I'm about to clean up my office from
the week's paper shoveling. In between, I'm moving around sprinklers to
get the beds on the edge of our woods, because everything needs a cool
drink.
Now, aren't you glad you asked?
I hate housework, by the way.
I got up early this am and was out at my nephew's building lot before 8.
His dad and a good crew of his co-workers were already busy as bees.
I was assigned the task of measuring the framing for his 8 basement
windows. I cut the jack studs and the 2x10 headers and nailed all in
place. Next I was marking and cutting the 4' x 8' sheets for his
subfloor. By the time 1800 hrs arrived I was ready to slip away and
let the 'young guys' continue. Good old Nova Scotia weather..it rained
on us all morning but I ended up with a sunburn in the afternoon.
