Daily Update – August 22, 2022

Good morning! Monday’s come back around again. 🙄

Cloudy with rain on it’s way 73 degrees in Delmar, NY. ☁️ There is a southeast breeze at 7 mph. 🍃. The dew point is 67 degrees. The skies will clear tomorrow around 11 pm.

How much rain everybody asks? 🌧 The answer is not much, maybe a 1/4 to half an inch depending where you are locally, but farther west in Central NY they’ll be getting some good needed rain, though even two inches won’t make up for the recent deficit.

Stayed over at my parents house last night, 🍳 camping in my truck, and having a nice breakfast. 🦌 A couple of small fawns ran out in front of my truck on 312 outside of Clarksville but the anti-lock brakes worked well. They kept the vehicle moving straight and wheels from locking up, though I do wish they had a little more stopping power. 🛻 But with those big wheels … at least I didn’t hit the fawn, although with the lifted truck, who knows how much damage it would have actually dun.

Yesterday was a nice afternoon at the folks house, 👪 after a fairly quiet weekend, spending some time out walking out back and playing with the dog. It turns out it wouldn’t have been that nice of weekend to head out of town, and even if I had gone out to Schoharie one of my Facebook friends was at the campsite I was planning to camp at. 🏕 And Saturday was kind of thunderstormy and rainy, 🌩 especially in Schoharie more then locally. Maybe next weekend.

Still haven’t been able to get that mouse 🐁 that has been causing havoc in kitchen but I’m going to set traps again. I haven’t had a mouse problem for a while, I think it was because I left the door open for a while on a hot evening 🌃. Also I’ve been having problems with the door light at my apartment due to a hornets nest. 🐝 I pulled the light bulb 💡 in hope of finding out why the bulb and then the dark switch wasn’t working. It turned out the only problem was the hornets nest. I tied to get the bulb back in this morning but I dropped it twice after getting stung.
