Got the car worked on yesterday. Tried two weeks ago to get the stuff done, but every place seemed very busy. But things worked in our favor yesterday and we got the stuff taken care of. Will get a tune up sometime in fall.

Rain has eluded us this week, several times. When it has rained, it has been for only a few minutes and that's it. We really need a nice gentle rain to clear out some of the nasty air and water everything. Hopefully Mother Nature will look kindly upon us and give us a bit of rain.

Short work week for Mom. Her birthday is Saturday and she has requested Friday off, so she'll only have four long work days this week.
