The weather forecast last night said that it would be raining all day. It didn't rain at all. Now the forecast says it will be raining all day tomorrow. We'll see what happens. Whatever happens, it doesn't look good for replacing the roof next week. I'll wait until Monday to call the roofers though. A lot could change over the weekend. I'm torn between wanting to get the roof done immediately and postponing things until the middle of Summer. I know that the roofers will want to go ahead despite the weather and make all kind of promises they can't keep. If they only worked during completely dry weather they wouldn't have much business this Spring.
The stores seemed unusually crowded today. Maybe it was because it's Mother's Day tomorrow. I might be imagining things, but prices still seem to be going up every single week. It's discouraging. I found what I needed though. I'm glad I only need to do this once a week. I don't even need to get all the groceries either. Janet gets some things and I get other things. I doubt this routine will ever change. It seems to work.
It was nice outside when we took our early walk with Dawn, but by the time I was ready for my long walk, it felt like Summer was already here. I was hot and mildly uncomfortable walking this afternoon. How am I going to make it through July and August? Today's temperatures were nothing compared to what's coming our way later in the year. I've walked my way through Summer before and I guess I can do it again. I'm not looking forward to July and August though. I guess I can always go to the gym. They keep my gym very cold.
I'm talking myself into going down to Florida for the AX-2 launch. SpaceFlight has already expressed an interest in doing an article and I think I'm going to get credentialed for this one. Even though these trips can get expensive, I'm not spending money on other things these days. When I'm sitting here doing nothing, I can think of all sorts of reasons to go. When I'm paying for these trips, I can think of a lot of reasons to never go again.
If it doesn't rain tomorrow, we'll take Dawn on her Sunday outing. I'll go mall walking either way. One good thing about mall walking is that the weather doesn't matter. It's always exactly the same inside.
