I don't know if you ladies are dealing with fireworks, but I'm surrounded. I usually like to go outside and watch them. I have to walk down to the road because we're surrounded by trees and I can't see them otherwise. But tonight, they're scaring me. There are far more than usual, and they're close. I can't see them, but I can hear them and I can
smell them. So I'm inside. I'm just praying none of them stray onto our property.
My dryer quit yesterday. I called the appliance store today and got an answering machine. I can't remember when we got it, but I'm sure it was over five years ago because it had a five-year warranty, and appliances always stop working the day after the warranty expires.
I just hope I don't end up having to use the laundromat. I always do when these stupid Speed Queen machines quit. Even if the service worker gets here quickly, it always takes Speed Queen forever to send parts.
I hate the laundromat during good seasons but in the middle of a heatwave and a global pandemic?
Laura, I also think it's wonderful that you are a pen pal. I'm too antisocial for it, but I'm sure those people could use a friend to brighten their day.
Anita, how nice that you can host friends. I'm glad Gus won't mind.
Paula, I laughed out loud at your choreography comment. I enjoy Leslie too, but sometimes I want something a bit more complex.
Everyone stay safe.
