When it is as hot as it has been and is going to be around here – temp in high 90s – and the activities for much of the day are indoors in air-conditioning, there is just so much reading, sleeping, and cleaning a gal can do!
And, then it hit me. I WAS BORED!
Now that is usually not a condition that I experience as I love nothing more than curling up in a favorite spot and a good book.
In fact, I am the kind of reader that has several books going at one time, so there is always at least one book that interests me on my pile at any given moment. And, to get anything else done, I have to limit my reading to AM hours. I do have a rule that I can read more later but, first, I have to do other things. It’s just that a slow morning reading is the best way to start my day.
I tried to send a message to my leather group asking if anyone was doing anything interesting while I was out running errands, but it failed to send from the car. In the meantime, on the way to the Augusta library, I stopped in a Augusta Locally Grown to try to find the lecturer of the garden pests discussion I had attended a couple of months ago. I was given her phone number.
Then they explained that the farmer’s market they were running was an online market. You ordered what you wanted over the weekend and then picked up at that location on Tuesdays. I decided to check it out.
At the library, I saw a notice for a language program. The librarian showed me how to get into it via computer. However, when I got home, I found that it is only for GA residents and that, as a SC resident, I could not access it.
But, I have a lot of language books here at home, so I decided to get out all the ones I have on Hebrew. I organized them (of course) and picked on short text which had a workbook as a starting point. Lesson 1 done.
Finally, I took a big box of mostly new golf balls to First Tee for a donation. That is the last of Ed’s golf stuff. I think he would have liked that it was donated to First Tee.
Today, I am no longer bored.
