Working in the heat

We rode our bikes to Piemento’s for a breakfast taco. We enjoy that little restaurant and it is only about a mile from here through neighborhoods. We rode back before it got too hot but worked outside cleaning some of the brush from the back. We cleared off the garden despite the presence of some small green tomatoes that might have matured for the neighbors. Evelyn also touched up the grey siding that had been nicked some. While we were sweaty and hot, John and Sue showed up with a paper I need to review our homeowners insurance here. I tried to persuade them to stay for lunch since Lionel had copped out, but they wouldn’t. We finished our labors and then showered for the day. We had our lunch and then began to work with the skirt steak John and Sue had given us. We had never fixed it before, so we went on line to get instructions. We were successful and thawed the steak. We can’t eat it for a day because we have to leave it in a marinade for 12-24 hours. Evelyn was fixing dinner when a woman from the park came and gave her several dresses for wearing at square dances. I didn’t want to take lessons years ago because I didn’t want to buy a bunch of clothes just for that and now we have been given a complete wardrobe. We watched some of the final four basket ball tournament, but stopped after Butler won. We watched some of a movie I had recorded. It had not been formatted properly and we could not see both the actors on screen at once. Technology fails!
