It rained this morning. Not for much and not for long, but actual drops of water fell from the sky. It’s been a while since that’s happened. Naturally, it had to do this right when I was trying to get the trash bin to the curb. Such is my luck. It’s still a little gloomy outside, but I don’t think we’ll get any more rain. At least I don’t have to water the yard today. Not that watering the yard has done much good anyway. It looks like hell. More than half of it is just brown and crispy. Summer was a wee bit too harsh this year.

It’s not harsh now! It’s only 70ºF on my porch! So wonderful to feel some cooler temperatures again. They keep saying it’s going to get warmer again soon, but it could just stay this way. I wouldn’t mind at all. Fall, what we have of it here, is my favorite season.

Well, the trash truck is finally coming down our street. Guess I’ll go haul in the bin to get it off the street, and then I need to get to the rest of the usual daily housework. It’s “floor day” today, though I don’t know if I have the desire to actually wax them. I should, but moving furniture doesn’t sound like a lot of fun, and I still have a bad case of the lazies. In fact, I’m feeling so lazy, I think I’d rather take a nap than do anything about the floors at all today. :yawn:
