Another Sock Started

 Yesterday was warm and sunny with a high of 31C (humidex 39C. This morning it is sunny and 17C. Today is supposed to be sunny and 25C. 

Lifestyle

I was tired yesterday so slowed my pace. I cleaned the dining room windows and the outside was quite dusty. I also spent quite a bit of time cleaning the kitchen which was due. A few dishes and items to put away. It is very clean now and I can finish washing walls next week. 

I folded laundry and put it away. I laundered the sheets and made my bed. I cooked a bunch of chicken breasts so I could have them for lunch and dinners over the next several days. 

I watered the plants 3 times yesterday due to the heat. I also watered the flower boxes for 20 minutes last night. Everything is drying out fast when it is hot and windy. 

Son texted me yesterday to go over and check on daughter-in-law. She hurt herself cleaning the pool. I raced over in a hurry only to find out she had a tiny scrape on her elbow. She got it when trying to get the vacuum head out of the pool after cleaning it. I had a good laugh at her antics and I am sure son will have a good laugh when he watches the security video. But, we were both worried she hurt her knee or hip and needed to be helped. 

Sewing

I didn't sew as I was too tired to figure out the fabric sizes for the bag I am going to make. I need to measure and get the sizes right. 

Knitting

I did knit last night and got the cuff knit on the first sock. I did knit 2 rows of the blue on it. 

Here is the colour scheme. 

I am ready to knit the cuff on sock #2. 

Thoughts

    The heat yesterday was difficult to handle as the wind was also hot. We had a warm shower in the evening which helped a bit but it didn't cool down the air. It finally cooled down early this morning. The mornings will be cooler this coming week which will be nice. We really need a couple of days of rain. 

    I read that the SWAT teams that arrived in our community on July 11 went into motion on Wednesday. They headed down what we call the Chester Road (towards Lunenburg). No one knows what actually was going on but it had to be a big thing to have the SWAT team involved. 

Today

I have to go and buy a piece of fabric to make some more piping for daughter. She needs more of it. I am taking it easy today as I have to be out tonight to tend a bar for a wedding. I will do a few little things but nothing major. 

Until the next time..............................................................
