2023 Day 229

Thursday August 17th

I really wish I could say that I could get used to the way the morning feels. But sadly that’s not the case.. this is a one of.. just a single instance of an actual coolish morning. The temperature outside this morning is a cool 71° – 72°. Not a temperature I have become accustomed to.

But, sitting on the front porch waiting for bus number one, I don’t even feel the need to turn on the fan. And other than the humidity, it’s really quite pleasant… Now it’s back in the house for another hour before it’s time for the next bus. And, the sun isn’t even up yet.

The weather status saying fog seem like a misnomer at the time of the above photos. Yes, it was a bit hazy. But if any fog was visible it was floating at treetop height.

But by the time the sun was up and it was second bus time the world outside on the front porch had changed completely…

I almost couldn’t see my neighbor’s house…

You know, the fact that it’s as cool this morning as it is seems like someone is getting even with me. Our AC unit went out Tuesday afternoon late and by Wednesday morning the temperature in the house had risen to 82°. Which, believe it or not, I was happy for the fact that I had this house built with super insulation. I mean really the outside temperature when the AC went out was above 101°. The night time low never dropped below 81°. And yet by the time the AC repairman arrived at noon yesterday the interior of the house was still 81°while the outside had risen back to 99°.

Well it’s been almost 3 hours since I started this day and I think I’m ready for breakfast… Y’all stay cool and I’ll catch you all on the other side.
