  1. Well, this was fun. :o)
    I hated the rain, too, yesterday.
    I endured it twice. I had to stand under it twice. For long.

    long day, this should be repeated daily. the list, not the activities, reminds me of a time card that had been introduced at work. after went to pee, went outside to check on the sun and other things showed up too often boss decided it was not worth his time. :-)
