Our sunrise walk with Dawn is still the nicest part of the day. We start before the sun comes up, but it is usually above the horizon on our way home. As soon as we see the sun, you can instantly feel the temperature rise. I still wonder how people lived here before there was air conditioning.
Since it was way too hot for a walk in the park, I went to the gym this morning. I went pretty early because I couldn't think of anything else to do. I was surprised that the place has reinstated their mask rule. I thought we were over that. It's kind of a silly rule. You have to wear a mask when you enter the building and are signing in, but you don't have to wear a mask when you are actually exercising. A very small percentage of the members keep their masks on all the time. Probably one of them complained and the rule was reinstated.
I didn't stay at the gym long today. I just walked enough on the indoor track to get my steps. I didn't even feel like shooting baskets today. When I got home I continued the window cleaning job I started yesterday. There were more hornets following me around today, but I didn't get stung. I did find a big nest and destroyed it. Hopefully hornets and wasps aren't valuable like bees. I really hate the hornets. There are still more windows to clean, but after about an hour I'd had enough of the insects and the heat and came back inside.
Dawn seems to know that Janet is back for good. She's much more relaxed now, even when Janet is out of the house. I don't know why this dog doesn't like me. We both like to do the same things. Napping and snacking aren't a bad way to spend the day.
Now that I'm up to date on the latest star tracker firmware and have watched the two movies that seemed vaguely interesting on Amazon Prime, I don't know what to do with myself. I could go to a camera store and buy something I don't need, but inflation has made me feel poor. I'd like to attend the Artemis-1 launch, but NASA has been slow with credentialing. I still don't know if I'll get press credential yet. It's not worth the trip without credentials because you can't get close enough to get good pictures. I guess I could start taking pictures in Dallas again. I used to do this a lot, but the city has become way too crowded. I don't enjoy getting out of my own neighborhood anymore. I'd rather drive halfway across the state to the Davis Mountains than visit another part of town.
I'll probably go back to the gym tomorrow. If I was smart, I would just keep walking after we finish our sunrise walk with Dawn. It's still pretty nice very early in the day. I like having breakfast before I start my day though, and by the time I finish breakfast it is already too hot. Oh, well. I'm sure I'll think of something to do. There are still more windows to clean.
