We had a guest speaker at church this morning. She was promoting a youth program to be presented next spring. She had hardly gotten started when I thought she needed a course in public speaking. She used a lot of "and ah" and "um's". I used to judge speech contests and it was painful to have to listen to her. I don't remember a thing she said. She went on and on. We had some visitors this morning and I thought if I were a first time visitor to this church, I would never come back. I felt instead of promoting her program, I was turned off. She appealed for money to finance it but it was a poor presentation. I know she was committed to her cause but she didn't come across well. At least not for me. The service ran over and the people for the second service where waiting in the back to get in.
When I got home, it was already too hot to do any yard work. I had to walk the dog in the shade in the back yard. He wanted to go around the block but it was too hot. He can't take the heat. He gets half way around the block and plops down in the shade to rest. He also gets ticks if the neighbor's grass is not cut. One of my friends who allows me to cut through her yard hasn't cut her grass all year. Some stole her mower. I offered to lend her mine but her boyfriend said he would bring his riding mower. So far, he hasn't done that. I had to stop taking Sparky through there, as he got ticks every time. He don't like staying out on the road and with this hot weather, the asphalt is too hot for his feet.
I stayed in the air conditioning all day.
