A Calm, Overcast, 58º Morning

7:14

It's 7:30 and I have been up for only 15 minutes and am enjoying my coffee with Evie. I am off to breakfast in twenty minutes so I better get this done. It's 9:15 and I just returned from breakfast with the guys, a good way to start the day. Well, I was able to get out for a forty-minute paddle around 10:00, the lake was great, calm and gray, and I shot a couple of photos of osprey.

Yesterday was back to normal, sort of, although I skipped kayaking because of the wind, waves and rain. I did attend a rigorous yoga class, although I wasn't excited about it. Evie encouraged me to 'do it' so I did it and felt much better, in a better mood, after class. After class, I went to Walmart to pick up some chicken thighs for dinner and a couple of other things we need. I am alway shocked by how busy it is, any day, any time. When I got home, the air conditioner guys had put up a tent in the side yard because of the rain and seemed to be making progress. 

Evie had gotten out some frozen pizza for lunch so along with the pizza I had another bowl of lentil soup and watched the second half of Tuesday night's NBA game. Because of the guys, I didn't nap but relaxed on the couch, reading and dozing off, waiting for them to finish up. By 2:30, they were showing us how to work the remotes for the splits, which was kind of cool. They both warm and cool. One will be back today to finish up a few small things, and then we will have a partially air-conditioned house. It will probably be a cool summer, right? 

Despite being sick with a cold and feeling miserable, Evie managed to prepare our dinner, chicken piccata, and rice before we sat down to enjoy a glass of wine and listen to the news about TACO Trump's tariffs. TACO stands for "Trump Always Chickens Out." I love it. Dinner was the best, something I had been aching for it. We watched some Hometown and Jeopardy Masters before Evie went up to bed, and I watched an episode of Young Wallender before the first half of the Thunder's easy defeat of the Timberwolves, clinching a place in the finals.
