Triple-Digit Temperature Thursday Turns To Triple The Toil!
Hello everyone here in Wealthy Affiliate!
As expected, towards the middle of the day, the temperature climbed to as high as 107 degrees Fahrenheit!
I slept rather fitfully last night, so I was a bit slow working in the Wealthy Affiliate Community!
Tig-Tig stayed in Samantha's room, and the Blog Dogs slept with Jacob!
I didn't have a chance to get a picture because I had to do an early morning lock job involving rekeying three locks and installing a deadbolt on top of that!
This was one such door on the small rental! I was done at around11:00 am, but by then, I already had some more work lined up--and on the hottest day to boot! (it figures!)
Well, such is the life of a self-employed locksmith! You have to take the work you get and be thankful for each and every job that you can get!
Over the 30 years in business, it has been feast or famine, with a few times in between where it has been steady!
I went to the eBay house when I was finished since I had another item to pack and ship! I took a break from the heat while there and worked a little in Wealthy Affiliate as I almost always manage to work-in to the daily schedule!
All-in-all, I ended up with three jobs for the day! The final one was driving way out to one of the Rural County firehouses to replace a stuck door latch!
I also reinstalled and adjusted the lock too!
Here is a cool shot of the old retired Army 5-ton trucks which are used to fight the rural grass fires with!
Pretty cool stuff!
Anyhow, after a quick visit with Tommy at his shop and a quick beer, I have been relaxing over at the eBay house, until I head home later!
I HOPE EVERYONE HAD A WONDERFUL THURSDAY!
ANOTHER FRISATSU BEGINS TOMORROW ALREADY!

Three jobs in a day and a beer with a buddy makes that a pretty good day in my book Jeffrey!
I think we've reached triple digits here today too, hopefully there will be some rain on the way soon or that classic looking army truck may have to come out of retirement.
I hope you are having a successful start to Frisatsu my friend and stay cool!

Love the fire truck Jeff.
I've got a story about a fire truck when I was in France.
It's just been on the UK news about high temperatures in parts of the States.
Keep doing a bit buddy. It all adds up at the end of the week.
A thousand small steps gets you there.
Take care

Wow! That is definitely
very hot weather.
Water is the answer.
By now you are the man
for those locks in your
area.
The retired Army-5 ton
trucks are pretty cool.
It is amazing that they
were able to keep them.
It's been a productive
day, after all, Jeff.
Need to have long
rest now.
Have a peaceful night.

Good morning, Jeff.
Hope you got your rest
and peaceful sleep.
I sure got mine. :-)
Have a blessed day!

Hi Jeff,
I knew by the title, it was terribly hot there. Do you also have the high humidity to go with it?
We have had some really beautiful days of sunshine, low humidity, and high in the 80's. It's starting to get back in the 90's for a few days but then next week it's supposed to be in the 70's.
Hoping you all get some relief soon.
Lynn
Fortunately, Lynn, I felt that the humidity was fairly low, thankfully! Sounds like you have more nice weather coming your way!
I hope you have a GREAT Frisatsu!

I feel very sorry for you, and will continue to do so all summer. Today it is overcast here, so a bit cooler, but it's approached 70 a couple of times. That's our ideal summer temperature. I do love summer here, and all the daylight as well. Soon the longest day of the year, and then we'll begin slowly to lose our wonderful light. Then, when the snow starts, we could trade places...
I so envy you, Fran! You have the absolute perfect weather for summer!
