ok so this day will be filed among those with too much excitement.
starting with the 2nd day in a row of the 8 allowable days when we who do not have air conditioning deeply wish we did. and the temp in the house was 80 degrees when i got home but it was 84 degrees outside. it is cooler now. and the fan is on, drawing the hot air up to the attic, and cool air from the outside through the house. i trained with the Queen of Airflow. and "they" promise that things are going to cool off by 15 degrees in the next day or two, and even possibly rain. wow. exciting times in California. but in Moscow there was snow on sunday. woo hoo.
then on the walk, i (and ketzl) saw what at first i thought was a cat on the curb across the street. but then it moved and dropped into a sewer drain. that's not cat behavior. needless to say, we went home, even with the critter out of sight.
home. set up laundry. washed sheets and towels. transferred the load to the dryer. reached over to push the "sensor dry" button and OMG ... 5 inches away from my hand was a dead rat.
ok that's enough excitement for the day. done. no more. please. thank you.
