Ready for my cool down, Mr. DeMille

One air conditioner and two fans and still too hot to sleep. Well, in fairness, too hot to get back to sleep after I woke up at 4:30. I should quit saying that I should sleep in the living room and just do it. I lay in bed and tried to go back to sleep but gave up after an hour. Really no big deal, it's not like I'm doing brain surgery today. Or anything else important.

I have a swim scheduled for 10:30. I can sleep before and/or after that.

It is supposed to be cooler today and cooler yet for the next week. So I will survive.

I am used to getting up and doing what has to be done and then playing the rest of the day by ear. Having a commitment in the middle of the day (swimming) is throwing off my rhythm. It's not a big deal I just need to re-rhythm on swim days. I don't want to waste whole days just waiting to go to the pool.

On the other hand, not much else going on around here today. Baseball game tonight. Sweater knitting. The uge.

I do have a couple of small house chores. I think I'll just do them now.

Murphy's door lock

So. My deadbolt lock on my front door is Smart-ish or Smart-adjacent. When I'm approaching the door from the hallway, if I have my phone with me, the door unlocks automagically. Oh so handy. But, it has spells. It goes through periods when it just doesn't work. Oh so annoying. So I got the keypad. Since I got the keypad, it has failed to work exactly 0 times.

Yes, I can pull out the key to unlock it, like a cave man. But who wants to do that???

OMG Twitter just informed me the F. Lee Bailey just died. He clearly falls in the 'he was still alive????' bucket. And, turns out he was only 87. I would have said he was a great deal older and less alive. Glad I didn't have money on it.

The ride to the pool was annoying. Lots of traffic and just as I started across the draw bridge, they stopped everything to raise it for a stupid boat. It's really a horrible trip there and horrible trip back but oh man is that swim fabulous. Swimming on weekends will be better. Well, maybe not the swimming but the getting there and back will for sure be less painful.

I was starving when I got home. I made another huge chef salad. Delicious. Now I need to clean up the kitchen and then it's knitting time.
