The window AC at 22 kept me pleasantly cool all night but I stayed in for most of the heat-hammer day. And then in the late afternoon went out to Wiener's to price strimmers, also to see if one would fit in the walker. Which it would, but since they're open to 7 I went off to By the Way, my quondem regular, where they still know that I drink Cosmopolitans. Would have had the healthy salad but it had blue cheese dressing so it was chicken in wine with roast veg and mashed potatoes, and very nice too. Then got my weed whacker and worked off dinner by walking home, sweating all the way because my water bottle was in the basket under the box. Came in to to my blessed fan, collapsed on couch, started playing squaredle, and then fan started making odd noises. Only it wasn't the fan: it was heavy raindrops plopping into the side alley as the weather system that's supposed to bring us relief started moving in.
Antsy night last night because of reflux or hiatus hernia or something doing its 'is this gut or is it heart attack' thing. Milk and Tums helped only a bit. Belatedly this morning I remembered that I no longer take my stomach coaters since I no longer take the heavy duty anti-inflams, so I started them again and things have been much better. But obviously something in my diet disagrees with me and I'm afraid it's luncheon meats, which is what I want to eat in hot weather. Luckily hot weather is on its way out.
