How is your day Today? Chat about your plans and achievements 2025....

Mini heat wave. Yesterday reached 90F and so will today. I have no AC, so after waking at 6:30am opened windows and doors letting in cool marine air. Now 8:45am Saturday August 9, 2025, temperature downstairs has dropped from 76F to 71F.

Last two evenings after productive days writing code on my computer, have been out enjoying live music with much dancing. Yesterday drove 55 miles north and that was at Thrive City at the Chase Arena (SF Warriors venue) where I enjoyed two Dead style jam bands. What a great outdoor music venue for freestyle dancing with a superb elevated open view of San Francisco Bay from a deck about 40 feet above the bay. It is actually the end of a long walking ramp from street level up to an arena entrance.

Today have a choice to either get a Heart ground floor ticket ($47) for Sunday evening also at the Chase Arena or a $39 grassy lawn ticket to late 90s era grunge/metal/hard rock band Creed, a band I'm little familiar with that is playing tonight just 13 miles away at Shoreline Amphitheatre.

Have been driving my recently bought 2023 Trailblazer LS for 6 weeks now while accumulating over 1000 miles. Never much of a vehicle enthusiast, have unexpectantly, been rather enjoying driving this electronically modern machine. Very different than any previous vehicles.

Good morning, all.

I've been on flea eradication duty all day, including deep vacuuming, numerous loads of laundry, and washing Ozzy-dog AGAIN (third time in a week). This last go-round was an oatmeal bath to help soothe his skin and remove any final remnants of the flea shampoo we used the first time. Turns out he gets very sick to his stomach from the chemicals in the flea shampoo.

I was considering a flea bomb, then read the before and after steps, including bagging everything nearby or washing it thoroughly afterwards because it's poisonous insecticide. Hard pass on that.

Going with sprinkling diatomaceous earth on the carpet, brushing it in, and leaving it for a few days before shop-vaccing, it up. Non toxic to humans and pets.

So that's been my day so far.
 
I woke up this morning around 5 with a scratchy throat, wasn't; congested, didn't have a fever, tested negative for Covid I took the bus to Walgreens to buy cold medicine items,walked home around 8:45 when it was cool out temp was 73
I think what caused it, yesterday when I was dog sitting Tage, they had A/C going along with a fan,in the living room,I wasn't expecting that. I hate summer colds, so I'm lying low for a couple of days. Its going to be really hot this upcoming week,highs in the low 90's. When I saw Alex's assistant, Erika told her I wasn't going to do the walking club on Tues at 10am
