Monday June 9, 2008

You’ll never believe—last night, I went to bed at 9 pm!!! I rarely climb in before 10:30, but I was really tired. I slept pretty well, waking about every 3 hours, as opposed to every 45 minutes to an hour with those horrible hots. When I did wake, I was just a little warm, and cooled off fairly quickly.

It rained a couple of times during the night; this morning is 70 degrees and the lake is quiet. There are breaks in the clouds, but it’s predicted to rain again throughout the day.

I’d like to get outdoors and do some more burning; we have a brush pile that needs attention, but I won’t be able to burn it if it’s wet. The other choice is to get the vacuum out and chase the winter’s cobwebs from the corners.

My shoulder/arm/breast seem ok from yesterday’s activities—yay. The nipple and areola are peeling and tender; I put another layer of silvadene and aquaphor on. I also put on a sports bra, with a layer of gauze over the ointment.

While I was at the local establishment parking lot connected to the internet, Jim and Polly drove up. They lost power during the night. There wasn’t a storm, but something failed. Hopefully it will be repaired soon. They’re going home this morning anyway, but it’s a drag not having power when the well pump is off.

The clouds have cleared and the sun is warm since I’ve been here. I hope you all have a great day today. Thanks for reading. Hugs.
