Another Scorcher

While we did not hit the century mark, we tied a record set in 2002...99 degrees (37 Celsius).  I did not even go outside until 7:30 p.m. and that was only because I had to run an errand for my mother.

When I was heading back home, I noticed there weren't that many cars at HEB so decided to stop and pick up a few items I forgot the last time I was here.  You can tell this is Spurs country when the only grocery store in town has an almost vacant parking lot.  Lucky for us we won tonight.

I did not go water the trees till almost midnight.  Apparently a lot of people watched the game as traffic was heavy for a Monday night...especially at that hour.

Good night.  May you all have Terlingua Dreams.

The heat is getting to me

I am beginning to think that I am getting soft with age :-(  

Had to run several errands in town today and every time I got off the car I felt the heat to be unbearable.  Yet today we only got to 99 degrees...just imagine when the daily triple digits arrive...on second thought, NO...I do not want to imagine it!

The most important errand was pre-registering mother for her tests at the hospital next week.  If you can I highly recommend you do this ahead of time and not the day of.

Before coming home decided to stop and pick up the latest advertised special at Long John Silvers.  It is called "The Big Catch" and it truly was big and also delicious...well worth the $4.99 price.

This afternoon I took an unscheduled almost three hour nap as I watched the evening news.  Only reason I got up was because the trees and flowers needed watering.

Good night.  May you all have Terlingua Dreams.
