I did not get nearly enough done today, and I blame 1) the fact that I was insanely productive yesterday, and 2) that it was entirely too hot and I wilted like my garden is.
I did, however, get up, make coffee, journal / plan a bit, shower, and run into town by 10am to help with the library's annual book sale. It's Old Settlers this weekend, and we do the book sale as a fundraiser. It was a pretty chill couple of hours - we had more help than we needed, so I mostly talked to Heidi and occasionally whoever came in to look at books.
We were done at noon, so then I walked around the square, but it was murderously hot - the feels like temperature was already pushing 100. So, it was pretty empty, especially compared to my memories of it in my youth. But I got a plate of pulled pork as part of a benefit for a deputy who suffered a lot of house damage in the tornado/wind event that hit Lineville last week, which was tasty. And I ate it while walking around and looking at the decorated windows. Uncle Mark, Dad, and Aunt B would all have class reunions this year, so that was pretty bittersweet since Mark and Dad were both recognized in their classes' windows.
And then, I was too hot to even consider staying for the parade, so I came home and basically did absolutely nothing all afternoon. I ran back into town later for some groceries, and I took a shower to improve my mood, and then I prepped some accoutrements for taco salad and took them out to Mom's. Obviously we had taco salad for dinner, which was tasty. And now, I need to go to bed - goodnight!
