Another day at home (as opposed to work.) I slept poorly last night, so couldn't think of a good reason to get up really early.

However, once up I got junky stuff done, like emptying the weed trash and old newspapers into the pool. The turtle (one of them) surfaced to see who was disturbing his(?) water. No sign of any phase of mosquito activity--guess the chlorine level is still adequate.

I headed for Arby's for a leisurely lunch, accompanied by Get Out or Die. There was a rather threatening cloud, but it never did "leak" while I was there--or when I was at PJ's for a post-lunch coffee. The raincloud probably saw that I was carrying an umbrella and knew it wouldn't be nearly as much fun as when I didn't have one and got wet. (Rain clouds are mischievous little creatures.)

Tomorrow should be even more exciting than today. I take my car to the mechanic for a new power steering pump. I will then be "trapped" at home till it's done. I really hope that it gets done in one day. I'll be sure to mention the W word with respect to my needs.

I'm glad I didn't go in to work today, because once again there was a significant downpour in the area where I work, right about quitting time.

Chalk up another IUD.
