My attempt to Journal in public- I may get shy or not. Let's see. |
| Here I sit... inside. I am running the air conditioner and not being able to do much else outside of sitting here reading and writing. I feel like a dish rag all wrung out and hung up to dry... with about as much energy. I have myself to blame... if that would actually help. It usually doesn't but I can sort of pin the why and where for on my current condition. It is hot. I spent yesterday outside for the most part, putting some interesting touches on a pre-school playground in the back yard. My wife runs an in-home pre-school here at the house. Yesterday was my day to weed and fill in the play area with wood chips, it makes for a softer landing than dirt. Now, that might have taken the starch out of me, as it took most of the day... in 90 degree feels like 100 with the humidity here in Georgia. Yes, I drank plenty of water and took frequent inside breaks to cool off. What I think may have done me in was last night. As one of my avocations, I perform in a small dinner theater in town here. Last night, we did an evening of improv... lots of fun. The factor that is impacting me today is that it is on an outside porch setting. So, there we were acting our hearts out, and ending the evening drenched in that stuff that pours out of you body when it gets really hot. So, today, here I sit, inside, drinking plenty of water... ok, and coffee (what can I say, I am not quite addicted... but very close). And, I am thanking the "gods" of central air for their forbearance and continued grace. Maybe later, I will work up the energy to get the second generation beans planted and growing... yes, another wonderful side effect of living in Georgia, multiple times good summer veggies can be planted for a multiple season harvest. Maybe, if I can pull myself away from Facebook long enough, I can make some progress on a short story I am trying to write... or not. What I could, also, be working on is a paper I am going to deliver to a professional conference later this summer. We'll see... because, so many things are vying for my attention... I think I will take a nap. |
