a sudden light

It is 3:42 PM Friday afternoon here in west Michigan. It is another bright warm sunny day. We are expecting hot weather to come our way the rest of this week. It is predicted to get in the 90's. The polar ice cap is melting while we are being cooked by the sun. Oceans are rising and soon New York City will be under water. Here in Michigan Lake Michigan the water levels are so high beaches are disappearing. House are being washed away along the shores of Lake Michigan.

I have had thus far a normal day. I am extremely tired this afternoon due to old age and lack of proper rest. Last night our bedroom was hot as an oven and hardly slept. Carol got up around 4 o'clock AM and I got up around 6:15 AM.

This morning I volunteered at the local library used books store The Book Nook from 10 o'clock AM till 1 o'clock PM. I brought home these used book from the Book Nook to add to our library-
