The first day of Summer...

Well, it was the first official day of summer, and it came in with hot and humidity. I can handle hot much better than humidity. Icky!

I started work on Sunday. It was the same old stuff with some different people. Today at work I got to get trained in on the new cash registers. Talk about being bored out of my mind. But it did end well as I learned that I got a 50 cent raise and will be having more power in the back room, which is where I prefer working anyway. So that was the excitment of the day today.

Tomorrow night we have a city band concert, and it is supposed to get into the 90's tomorrow. I hope it cools down a little bit before the concert. I love outdoor concerts, but not when it is sweltering hot! This year we are doing something different at the concerts. After the intermission, we have something called the "Kiddie Parade". That's where we play a march while the kids in the park get led around by someone in the band, and at the end they get a piece of candy. Well, this year the director has asked if some young kid would like to "direct" the band. So a little kid comes up and "conducts" the band. The real director is behind them helping them along. At least we are playing a straight-forward march where we don't have to look at a director. It is really cute to see a little kid directing. They seem to enjoy it. Last week the little girl even gave a bow at the end....

Well, I have nothing more to write for now. So I'll leave it at that....
