Library, market, clean house, sewing, baseball, knitting.... That's today.

When the house cleaner gets here, I'll head out.  I have holds ready at the library which does not open until 10. But, if I get there too early, I'll kill time at the market in the nex block. They have the best butcher in town and also carry the milk I like plus I have other stuff on my list.

Happily the cool as come. It's even a little cloudy. I'll turn off the air conditioner and open the door before I go out. A nice relief.

A decade ago when my microwave died, I replaced it with an Advantium oven. It does microwave plus baking/broiling/etc.  It's a nice little second oven that I use way more than my big one. It does not heat up the house and cooks some stuff, like meat, faster. But, it's getting on in years. I have always been afraid that GE would discontinue it and I'd be SOL.   I sent an email to my appliance store asking them what the deal was - life expectancy, future product availablity, etc.

The nut is that I bought a new one. I also bought delivery/install/haulaway.  That happens on Monday.  I'm excited to know I have 10 more years of this kind of cooking. Heck, that's probably more years than I have of me! Whew. And speaking of things that I'm likely to outlive, I will need to replace the hot water heater next year.  That's one appliance, I'd rather replace before it dies than after.

I am astounded and amazed that a woman will be the nominee of a major politcal party. I am so very grateful that that woman is Hilary Clinton.

Ok so my hair cutter place's new place - which is finally far more convenient for me - just put their opening date on their website. It's the 17th. A week from day after tomorrow. My hair really needed cut last week.  I wonder if I can hold out 9 more days? Probably it's not advisable. And, just as probably, it's what I will do. Where's that hat?

I just read on the West Seattle blog that the gas station across from my favorite dollar store is getting a POPEYE'S!!!!!  Hilariously and because this is still Seattle, after all.... It's going to be a joint operation - 1/2 Popeye's and 1/2 Starbucks. This is cracking me up but also making me very hungry.

This is a Popeye's way south of here that I have been to in a Popeye's emergency but to have one within picking-up-some-for-dinner range is pretty huge. It's not that far from my pool - chicken for breakfast?  Why the hell not?!

I am excited. It is currently an abandoned gas station so I'm guessing we're some time away from 3 piece dark with biscuit, plz. But light? tunnel? I'm seeing it.
