Day 279

I slept in today.  Actually I woke up with the alarm, but just stayed in bed and surfed.  I got Lucy up on the bed with us.  The cats came, too.

After about an hour I got up and did the pet thing and breakfast.  I'm used to doing something in the morning, so I took the broken bird feeder out to the garage.  I glued it back together.  It was warm enough in the garage that the Elmer's glue was really runny.  It made quite a mess, but I didn't care because the thing doesn't look that good to begin with.

That was the sum total of things that I accomplished in the morning.  The rest was surfing. 

Just after lunch the gravel people called.  They were an hour and a half early, which was fine with me.  I went out, opened the gate, and waited.  I didn't have to wait more than a few minutes.  Ten yards of gravel is a lot.  It cost $530, so I now have a little over $900 invested in the driveway.  I'm happy with that.  Of course it was way too hot (99) to move any of it.

When I was finished we left for the post office.  Even though it was really hot the dog wanted to run.  She did a dozen fairly long retrieves in the hot sun.  That was plenty.  The last stop was the Circle C ice cream place.  Ellen wanted to go there.  I would have preferred a snow cone.

It was 102 when we got home.  The rest of the day was surfing, reading, and TV.  I'm getting really, really, bored.
