Just Another Manic Monday

Up and at 'em! Its Monday morning and that means tennis at 8:00am. We will be playing indoors, but the weather is still conducive to outdoor sporting events. As a matter of fact, it was a little too toasty for my softball comfort yesterday afternoon, as the official temperature topped out at 89 degrees for the second day in a row. I did notice that the wind picked up a bit overnight, it blew the bedroom door shut...WHAM! That was a bit startling. That breeze will help to cool things down today, so instead of ending up near 90, we should end up closer to 80. The sun will be shining with a few high clouds adding a bit of texture to the sky. Tomorrow and Wednesday are going to be warm and sunny, with temperatures slowly creeping back up through the 80s. Later in the week we may actually see some rain, but not much though, as this warm weather gets shoved to the east and slightly cooler and more moist air moves in. Highs will still be in the mid to upper 70s for Thursday into Saturday. The weather in St. Paul is going to be sunny and warm for a few more days too, so Beth will be experiencing similar conditions to those of us back home.

Today is supposed to be my day off. It actually will be but there is plenty to do. After tennis I will get to work on removing a tree from the front yard. I started taking some branches off of it last evening. It has been there for 9 years, as long as we and the house have been here, and has yet to grow. It is not dead, it just hasn't grown. It was probably planted over a nuclear waste dump. It is not a pretty tree either, so it is destined for the dumpster. In the middle of all of that it will be off to my meteorology class, and them back home to re landscape the area that the tree has vacated.

  1. I don't think the non-compliant tree is your fault; I think Casey used to sneak over there in his stealthy way and pee on it. Now Lucy just follows Brady over and pees on it in her girly way....not so stealthly though. Oh heck, now that I think of it, Brady probably has peed on it too! Surlely that hasn't helped the growth process!
