The main event today was a trip to the garage for replacement of the windshield. The job took two hours so I went walking along Main Street and stopped for lunch. When finally back home, I worked on the copyedited version of the accepted manuscript. I accepted and rejected some of the suggestions. Others took more detailed responses to clarify intent of original phrasing that was altered in the editor's attempt to clarify things. It was a lot of small changes that needed to be dealt with. Some suggestions were excellent while a few were less so. It takes tact <smile>.
The weather was cooler and windy. Some rain was expected, but very little actually fell. The next few days are to be cooler than the past few days -- particularly overnight temperatures. That we are cooling while those south of us are sweltering is odd. The way the major low and high pressure systems have lined up, there is a blocking pattern that will keep the heat south of us. I'd be happy with more summer weather, even though I recognize that a new month will be upon us this weekend.
Emotions have been a bit frayed recently. Way to many things to deal with -- the load can be heavy. One song came to mind when thinking today. The title says it all <smile>
The Weight -- The Band
