Memorial day weekend.
May. 29th, 2011 03:58 pmNobody indicated interest in a picnic this weekend, so just gonna grill up burgers for myself and my parents. If I get up on time, I'll head down to see the parade tomorrow. But my usual viewing spot is likely to be busy, as that is where the cub scouts are assembling to join the parade for the remainder of the route.
Dad got a real bad reaction to a tick bite a couple days ago. Swollen up as big as a chicken egg and lots of redness. when he got to the doctor, they were able to remove the tick, and put him on some antibiotics. Gonna make the house work a lot less fun, having to be super aware of tick hazard, with the lyme disease endemic around here. Might end up cutting down the shrubbery to clear them from the spots needing work to remove tick habitat. *sighs* Measures to control the deer overpopulation around here having already been blocked by the legions of bambi sympathizers.
SUmmer weather has also finally arrived, a weekend of hot hazy humid. We opened up windows around the house and have started using the whole house fan in the evenings.
