Weather is Changing

I think the weather has changed. From highs in the 100's to highs in the 70's, we are in the transition from summer to autumn. We usually have a few weeks of nice weather, then BOOM, snow and cold arrive sometime early October.

Tomorrow is supposed to be a warm and smoky day. I guess the smoke is coming from fires in the west. Darn. I hate that. But we have been lucky so far this year. No big fires anywhere near Roundup. A few small ones that the local fire department puts out in a hurry. Good thing, since it is so dry, still.

Finally, after 2 cancellations I can get my hair cut tomorrow. Seems like a minor thing, I know. But when you have crazy curly hair such as mine, it just gets to be uncontrollable after a time. Reminds me of the time when all the salons were closed due to COVID. But this situation is different, in a way. The first appointment was scheduled for the day I got out of the hospital, in July. No way I was going to do a haircut that day. Then the next time, I had another appointment for another doctor. Another cancellation. So I guess third time is the charm.

I'm doing community theater again this year. This is a good one, a silly mystery play. We perform the end of this week. Puts me in the mood for my participation in the WDC 22nd Birthday Masquerade Party. Check that out if you want some silly mystery fun. "Wdc 22nd Birthday Masquerade Party"
