Today started out so hot inside. I woke around 6am and began sweating immediately, or rather continued sweating from the night before. I estimated it was at least 90 or so in my room. 6am here would mean it’s about 8pm in the states. I skyped with Kayleigh for the first time since leaving the US. IT was good to see a familiar face. I have skyped with mom at least twice since leave Chicago Airport. The USB I went to breakfast at 7 and had some wheat chipatae and vegetables. A storm began soon after breakfast. This would prevent collecting sun energy until after the clouds had passed anywhere from 30 minutes to a few hours. These storms we have been having a strange for this time of year, they normally don’t occur until July. They are nice because they bring the temperature down, but greatly increase the humidity. It can down pour like it did today; spilling inches of rain on the ground, and by noon, there are no traces it has rained. It is just hot. And muggy. And the bugs love it. So it doesn’t sound like I’m just complaining, it makes Cleveland (and Michigan) summers seem pleasant and mild.
Today we were able to accomplish reviewing our drawing with Fr. Paul. He was very impressed. We signed the document ending with the phrase Father loves, “And that was that”
The storm continued, so I did what anyone with ample free time on their hand would do: made some tea, Taj Mahal tea, from India of course, sat in a plastic chair in the hallway, cracked a window open and dove back into my book. I am glad I bought it. I am such a nerd. Then I took a nap. Glorious nap indeed.
