The morning was just a little chilly but energizing and comfortable.

It’s nearing 1:00 PM and we’re only at 76-degrees with an expected high of 80-degrees. The humidity was a little on the high side at the start but didn’t feel uncomfortable. Now, a wonderful breeze is keeping the deck more desirable.

The cardinals are having a major song fest like it’s PITCH PERFECT: CARDINAL BLAST. Oh, I actually was talked into watching the first two PITCH PERFECT movies and I really did enjoy them.

Now, the driveway company is sealing the driveway; the smell is not too unpleasant and the breeze keeps it moving along. The sound of the machine is loud enough to challenge my good ear to hear the speaker right off the deck.

I’m to have dinner and watch some movies with a friend but until time to get ready, I will probably be cemented to my work area on the deck as I am making tremendous progress with research and outlining.

Spread across the deck are four special pals. Erma has provided me numerous breaks, reminding me I need to love on these pooches!
