Greetings, gang.
33 and sunny this morning outside my window. Mid 50s for the high today. I'm a little disappointed (but not surprised) with the NWS. They've been claiming rain since Tuesday and I have yet to see a drop. More rain predictions through next week but the only real chance is on Saturday when soccer starts for the great-grandkids. Yep, I'll probably be standing in the rain to watch.
Yesterday the only real project I completed was putting the winter toys in the shed and getting out the summer toys. Swimming this morning at the gym and if the weather holds I'll take a bike ride this afternoon.
The house across the street went on the market Tuesday afternoon. Tuesday evening it had a sale pending sign. Seems a young lady firefighter offered above asking. Closing in a month. I never understood why it takes so long. Sure, there has to be a title search but otherwise in my opinion it's "Here's the money, I'll take the house." There's always drama right at closing also because they're not sure the money will be there. I guess that's why I never made my millions in real estate.
Gas jumped to $3.79 on Tuesday with the big jump in oil prices. Any guesses on what happened yesterday when oil dropped considerably? If you guessed no change you are correct. Still at $3.79
All stay safe.
