79 with 93% humidity right now, going to mid 90's today, already feels like 86 outside. Gonna be warm!
Gonna be a two handkerchief day today Randy...I'm headed to the garden early to beat the heat.
going round and round with my wife about driving her to a doc apt today. She wants to drive, says she can, and likely will do fine. She's on heavy meds though and if anything happens, I'm going to assume that had a part in it. She drives over to her Mom's twenty minutes away ok, but the hospital is an hour, but no fast roads. I'm a natural worry wart,
but she wants her independence too. And technically I'm not even supposed to be driving yet, so my demanding to drive her is a bit of a stretch. She looks at me and says
"I'll be fine dear".
I haven't driven the suburban in three weeks. Will take it to the car wash, then the farm. Been pretty spoiled driving the wife's car, a 2500 isn't exactly smooth on our local bumpy roads. Well now I can be the one geezering along while others are annoyed behind, like I usually am. The main road near us is populated by a number of continuing care/retirement communities and the blue hairs pull out onto the road at a snail's pace and then usually drive thirty five in a forty five. Four door Corolla almost always. I'm doing better in retirement, it used to drive me nuts getting stuck behind them. I found that pulling a bit to the right of the lane so the guy behind me can see what's holding us up helps in not getting tailgated so badly. Course the giant three ball chrome hitch on the Suburban does a marvelous job at keeping folks back a bit.
need to get going, the thermometer is going up, up up.
have a safe and fun day
