It sucked Opel. Untill I was 10 we lived in a trailer. Untill I was 16 our house was not air-conditioned. At least I was allowed to set up my bedroom in the basement.

House fan was humming all night... temps outside were low 70's high 60's, so it works better than running the AC. House gets a little dusty, but I got a wife... (Lord, I apologize fer that).

Close it down in the morning and hope the AC doesn't kick on until 2-4 in the afternoon... The Quiet Cool whole house fan has paid for itself many times over.

For about the 12th year in a row I sent in my request for tickets to the Masters Golf Tournament next April. Have always checked all boxes for both practice rounds and the tournament rounds. Never been drawn yet. Drawing is early July.

Took the boy mini golfing this morning, then started on bathroom tile.

Most of it is down, all the cut pieces remain, gonna take at least as long as the full tiles. But my knees and my back gave up on me. Took some ibuprofen and beer, laying on the floor with my legs on the couch waiting for it to kick in so I can finish.

Gotta change the switches too.

Rough count: 31 kilos of coke, 30 pounds of meth, 45k fentanyl pills, 3 pounds of heroin and over 1 million in stolen cargo recovered on a dope raid by my buddy and his deputies. Patrol deputies, not even the narc team.

Great job, fellas.

Tiles done in bathroom. Switches and faceplate changed too. Accidentally hit the wall a few places with the rubber mallet setting tile so need some paint touch-up.

Tomorrow I'll go buy trim and get on that.

Then plumbering and vanity install.

Then caulking and rehanging the 80lb full wall mirror.

Gotta get up in the attic to rehang the exhaust fan too. Really not looking forward to going up there in this heat. I have a thermometer up there hanging by the entrance. It was reading 127 when I attempted to go up earlier. I'm not going up in that temp in coveralls balaclava gloves goggles and respirator. Probably gonna be a night time job.

Brother in law gonna come by tomorrow to help with the mirror. Wife can't hold the mirror and I don't trust her with a screw gun - either gonna miss stud and not notice or blow through and break glass.

Gotta come in from the boys closet and slip a stud in behind the shower wall. Front panel has some movement when you push on it. I thought I hit all the required contact points in the manual but that one must've been missed or set 1/4" back. Dunno, but I got a hole in his closet already so should be easy.

Giordano deep dish pizza for dinner. Washed down with a Belgian tripel. Showered, and done for the day.

Speaking of which I've been trying to get my balls tied off and keep striking out.

Talked to a d!ck doc at work who I trust, he said yeah just call and make appt ill take care of you. I called, made an appointment and then had to cancel for something. Made another. They called me and canceled for double booking. Made another. They called and said he doesn't do vasectomies from that office, I have to go to the other office.

I mean, the no sex thing works. But it's been nearly a decade, might be time to get back in practice. Eventually.

Wife woke me up at 0600 said the dogs going nuts in the woods and won't come back. Probably found a critter. So in my underpants and barefoot I went back there and she's fighting a juvenile raccoon with one hand stuck in a trap. Shot the raccoon, dog crunched it a few more times and then calmly walked away.

Partly cloudy\sunny 68 degrees.

Dog walked and roof and gutter blown free of the oak tree debris. 8+ hours of sleep put me behind, but am safely now in the recliner watch the Euros.

Pizza or BBQ today?..... Maybe I combine both? Hmm.

relaxing with coffee...bracing for the coming ruckus...

kids and their kids coming over for pool party and Father's Day celebration...I've been relieved of my usual cooking duties for these type of gatherings...daughter's making apple cobbler and Kalua pork...son's bringing a big Hawaiian family meal from a take-out nearby...

alas, nobody volunteered to clean the pool and deck...at least my wife is doing all the house cleaning today...

No money until draw. If they had a lottery that gave points to those who have never been drawn I would have a better chance. Local G&F drawings have a system like that.

Yesterday was the anniversary of the hottest day in Phoenix. It hit 122 in 1990 and they had to stop planes from taking off since their charts did not go that high for pilots. I ran a 5 miler but I waited until the sun was setting so it was prolly only 120 by then. d'oh!

Currently 82 and sunny. UV index is "extreme". Was at the dog park as soon as it opened so he could run around before it got blazing hot. 92 high today but the sun feels like it wants to melt you where you stand.

Put in the kitchen air conditioner this morning. It seems to get heavier every year. Going to 85 today with a lower humidity and 87 predicted for Tomorrow with a return of higher humidity.

Saved the full-wall mirror from the bathroom and bought special fasteners for it.

Tried to reinstall this morning. Broke the mirror. I'd already priced a replacement. $1k. So, that's not happening. My buddy who has a door and glass business said he could try to cut it down and redrill but 90% sure it'd break in the process so not even gonna try.

Opened up a hole in the boys closet to access the backside of the shower wall to sneak in another stud since the front wall had a good bit of wiggle to it.

Got most of the baseboard trim up and caulked.

Installed all the shutoff valves. Gonna put the toilet in next. Doesn't look like I did much but I put in a full day. Started at 0600 wife woke me up to deal with a raccoon, then I started on the bathroom. 6 trips to Menards and Home Depot happened.

Hopefully we'll have a toilet by the end of the day.

Haven't had a steak in a couple months. At Costco the other day... 4 ribeyes was $70, so I did not buy them.

Sam's club today... 3 ribeye's (choice, just like Costco) $32. YUP! Ribeye steak for dinner tonight. Gotta be a good boy though and split one with the wife. Ya know damn well I want to eat the whole steak, but I also want to lose 9 more pounds.
