Wind And Rain Return

7:00

7:54

It's a dismal morning here on the lake: a howling wind, rough lake waters, and rain, a good day to stay inside, grab a book, and relax. Of course, I am not happy sitting around, so I may go for coffee, or to yoga, or shopping. 

Yesterday was an interesting day as the air conditioning technicians arrived and spent the day both inside and outside, installing a ductless mini-split air conditioning system.  Luckily, I kayaked early, leaving before 7:00, returning before 8:00 when they arrived. I stayed home, and Evie went off to kindergarten. They were in and out of the house, in the crawl space on ladders, and will return today to hopefully finish up the job if the weather does not get in their way. While they worked, I spent most of the time in Evie's garden weeding or on the couch reading. It's strange having someone in your house for the day, so you don't feel as comfortable as you usually do. 

For lunch, I made a turkey and cheese sandwich, watched the end of the NBA  game, then read until Evie returned, around 2:00. The guys finished up around 3:30 and said they had another six hours before they finished. It was nice to have the house back to ourselves, to be honest.

Evie is fighting a cold and uncharacteristically fell asleep on the couch for an hour or so as she was also whopped from school.  We skipped happy hour and dinner was easy because Ron stopped by with some of Linda's baked beans from Sunday night. And Evie was happy to have a couple of hot dogs so it was an easy dinner. And for dessert, we had Linda's ice cream cake. Nothing like leftovers.  Evie went to bed after dinner and I watched the first half of the Pacers/Knicks game before going up to bed.
