Another "Ditto" Day

Thursday was more of the same: Hot, humid with a slight chance of afternoon thunderstorms.

After work, I changed clothes and started the "Wednesday" wash. I worked in the house until it was time to put it in the dryer.

Then I gassed up the lawn tractor, checked the oil and the tires and headed out to cut the back yard. The situation was the same as in the front. Areas where the sun hits were starting to burn up, but in the deep shade the grass continues to grow. So, it was becoming uneven and needed the attention.

I finished up around 7:30 PM. I had planned an elaborate supper, but it was a little late for that. So, I made up a nice salad: The rest of that Michigan "Bibb" lettuce, some radicchio, a tomato (mine) and a sliced radish (not mine). Then I heated up a small chicken pot pie.

I ate that watching some TV. I was all excited about watching TMC. They were going to show "The Student Prince at Heidelberg." Why was that so intriguing? Because my Father loved that opera and had a record of the music that he often played. The plot concerned a prince who went to college there and fell in love with a barmaid. When I was a young lad, I could sing most of the songs, especially the one called "Drink" (Ironic, eh?)

But... when it started, it turned out to be the silent movie version. So, no songs! Disgusted, I watched some taped shows and went to bed early.
