madgravityFriday 16- I did my stretches.
Today’s Weather was: Temps of around 81 to 111 degrees, SE winds at 7 to 16 MPH, humidity around 21 percent, clear skies.
According to the National Weather Service: “Saturday: Mostly sunny and hot, with a high near 107. West northwest wind between 7 and 10 mph becoming calm. Saturday Night: Partly cloudy, with a low around 81. West wind between 11 and 14 mph, with gusts as high as 20 mph.”
I was biding my time waiting for FedEx to arrive with my check for the domain name I sold. I updated the Copper Mountain Mesa Website and sent out the Newsletter. Around 1:30pm I went outside to see how hot it was, 110 Degrees, only to find a FedEx envelope on my doorstep! And I haven’t a clue how long it had been there. I got everything together, picked up my friend’s truck, and drove on down to Yucca Valley to cash it. I thought the bank would be swarming with folks cashing their checks on a Friday, but there were few there. I asked the lady Nancy, the lady who was helping me opened up a savings account, why there are few people. She said it was too hot. That most folks come in during the morning and then a half hour before closing time; made sense to me. I took out two damp checks from my shirt pocket and had to tell Nancy I was sorry but it’s so dang hot outside. She is the second Nancy I’ve met this week.
I went to WalMart and then to Stater Bros to get some supplies and then headed back home. I bought a 700Watt microwave for $30 to try out on my new solar panels, and some fried chicken; I got hungry!
I got home around 4:30 and hooked up the microwave and tried it out. I put some shredded cheese on a tortilla and set the timer to one minute. Boy do those things suck the juice out of my batteries. Well it was later in the day and if I tried it earlier I think I’d have better results. Anyways the batteries recovered in half an hour back to full charge. Tomorrow I’ll test it again when it is earlier in the day when the Sun is at its peak.
Stuart and Debbie called from Oklahoma to say howdy. We yapped for 100 minutes (it says that on my phone). They live on an Indian Reservation there and Debbie was telling me all about her tribe and how it was like a big family. They seem to be happy living there!
I watched the second episode of season 2 of “Warehouse 13”.
I did my stretches, practiced my guitar, wrote to my journal, posted it to the web, and called it a night.
