More of Same

Supposedly It's Going to Break Tonight

I am still awaiting the thunderstorms that are supposed to bring some relief to this miserable heat and humidity, but so far--9 PM, no luck.

Meantime, all I can to is report more of the same. I think the pool is 25 meters, so today I swam 20 lengths.

Drove over to the Chinese restaurant hoping to get some take out, but they were closed. So I went to the market and got some stuff to make my own hamburger stuff. Found a kit for making your own Chinese cashew chicken, so I bought that too. I didn't try it yet. But, in the meantime, I made a pot of French onion soup using Vidalia onions.

For those unfamiliar with the Vidalia, it is a seasonal onion originally grown in Georgia, USA. They are incredibly sweet. I must say, even though it is summer, and a nice big pot of soup does sound a bit strange, it was delicious. I will have quick meals for several days. Yummy.

Chance was in the aisle of the barn when I went out to feed dinner. I had accidently left Toby's inside stall door open. Since it was Toby's stall, and he was probably in it for the bulk of the day--avoiding both the heat and the bugs--I suspect it took a long time before Chance managed to get through. The aisle was not quite as trashed as it normally is when he's gotten in so I may have caught him in the early stages of sabotage.

It only took a few minutes to sort things out again.

So I guess my horse activities today are limited to catching the criminal before the crime was complete.
