August

I spent last week in North Carolina. I don’t love going there when it’s hot and humid, but they ended up with rain so it was a little cooler, but still humid and rainy. I have to admit the one day I got water in my shoes and my socks got wet on the way to work, I was not so in love with the rain at that moment. Wet socks are nasty. 

We’ve been very dry and we have new fires starting all the time. We could use some of that rain the south and east is getting. Although, it has been a bit cooler. I think we were in the low 80s yesterday. Last night, I actually had to put a blanket on with my window open and fan on. It got me in the mood to bake bread. I’m not going to, but I will be very happy when that day comes. Today is for enchiladas. Those sounded good as well. 

I have been doing terrible on my walking challenge this summer. I’m really far behind. I can change the end date, so it’s not that I can’t complete it, but even that won’t help if I’m not walking. So this week I’m committing to 5 miles. It should be simple, it doesn’t even have to be outdoors. Indoor walking counts as long as I’m walking. I’ll try for more outdoor walking as the weather actually cools down in a the coming months. 

So I’m going to enjoy this lazy Sunday and try to make this week count.
