Wide awake in the middle of the night; got up at 3:30 AM. Redeem the time!! Doing laundry because much too hot later in the day to venture from my air-conditioned trailer-home to oppressively hot outdoors and laundry room!!

At ten o’clock, it was with great satisfaction when I considered my accomplishments. Two loads of laundry, clean and neatly folded–and all the plants watered. Yes, I “beat the heat”  and spent hours on the computer “wrapping up” the anniversary gift you can read about tomorrow.
