I think I've done enough stuff that involves sweating today. After a couple really nice weeks, the hot weather seems to be coming back, though without the humidity of the last couple bouts.

I went out and lopped some more brush, but the mosquitoes chased me in, mostly dive bombing my eyes, nose, mouth and ears. I'm working on a 45 degree slope and my footing is previously cut stuff (which I'm cutting further and stacking) and leaf and woodland litter. I have to concentrate on safe footing as well as bringing down the saplings safely.

I found the right screw driver so removed the brass swing arm lamp from Tom's side of the bed. I have NO footing over there. I'll put it up on my side of the bed tomorrow when I get home from my mammogram. Later this evening I'll pick up off the bed all the stuff I sorted this morning while drying my hair. I threw out a lot. (Really.) And walked some of the stuff to where it belongs. (My nightstand just acquires layers of stuff that it's not immediately obvious where it belongs...plus all the stuff it's convenient to HAVE on the nightstand.)

Now I'm going to get today's PMFF material emailed to Babs (and file the stuff I pulled off the other computer) and then I'm pouring myself a very weak G&T, sloshing bug stuff all over me, and settling in on the deck with the magazine I started the other day.

I can relax awhile -- supper is leftover vindaloo so all I have to do is cook more rice and sauté the mushrooms I want to add to it.
