As Tommy was about to come in the house, I saw several wasps trying to get in with him. I yelled and him to watch out, but he never saw them. Several days later, as I was about to push the storm doo open a wssp rushed the door and came in. Somehow, the wasp went right back out. There were three or four right behind the initial wasp. Now, I am afraid when I go out. I have not seen any nests, but I suspect some live under the ramp.
I cannot move fast enough to spray them and dodge and run. Tommy is not a good sprayer. The mower is not here at dusk. The cleaner might not want to do this. Every year, I have sprayed for wasps, so this will be nothing new.
Monday, the temp was 99F, and we can expect similar temps all week. I think it might rain on Wednesday evening. It is the South--hot and humid.
Late last night, Tommy was looking at the footrest on his chair. He was standing in front of the chair with the whole thing tilted back and trying to use the control. He said the footrest would not go up. That worried me. He cannot sleep if he cannot get the footrest up. He kept looking underneath. Then, he took the reacher and tried to remove a plastic bag caught in the mechanism. I went over and gingerly got in a little space, trying not to fall. I managed to reach the plastic bag far in the back of the undercarriage of the chair. It pulled out easily. The footrest still did not come up as it should.
Still, he fiddled with the control since the removal of the plastic bag did not help. Then, he started digging around for electric cord. He showed me how the lights on the control faded away when he tried to use it. When he finally sat down, he said the lights on the remote kept going off. Well, it was not plugged into the wall securely. The control would not work without enough electricity. Whew! I think that was also what was wrong that the footrest could not be controlled. This was a 30-minute ordeal. At least he is good at troubleshooting.
Today was another leftover day. I had chicken breast, carrots, and a tiny piece of potato, plus cabbage freshly cooked, squash and onions I cooked over the weekend. I used on tiny slice of butter, less than a pat over the vegetables. It was very little, but just enough. I ate about half the butter because the vegetables were not reheated enough to melt butter.
When we went to SAM"S, I had to go into a little room to get milk. The entrance was huge with an air curtain to keep in the cold. The curtain was frigid. I have never seen or been in a room like this. There was another cold room that held other cold items like orange juice. It felt good on a hot day. I wish my bedroom were that cold. Have you ever been in a room like this?
Tommy says he has not seen or heard from the dogs since Saturday, so we wonder if the owners took the dogs or if Animal Control got them. Either way, hopefully, they are safe and with people who will care for them. Still, no one from the city has come to clean up the place, so now the weeds are high again.
The hat umbrella and the toothbrushes are set for return to Amazon. However, we went to UPS place and it was no longer there. I felt it was too late to go to new location in close, dangerous town. So, that is set for tomorrow. We still have a return to make elsewhere. So, those are tomorrow's chores.
Have you seen a cold room for milk or anything else at SAM's or elsewhere?
I hope you are staying cool and safe.
