It was predicted that our warm/hot weather was going to end as of yesterday.
WRONG!!!
It's already pushing 80°F out, and it's not even 10AM yet.
I guess this is a good demonstration that climate change is real – and that the only reasonable response is to work with what Mother Nature is doing. For us here on the California Central Coast, that means (A) thinking about finally putting a real patio/deck/something in the back yard so we have a place to sit and eat outside, where it would be cooler and nicer; (B) thinking about finally getting a VERY small A/C window unit that wouldn't kill my shoulders and/or arms to put into the window when needed and remove for storage when not.
I don't do well in heat. I don't like to cook when it's too warm. And I REALLY don't like having to depend on Trader Joe's wraps and salads too much. Once in a while is OK, but nightly? Nah...
Have a lady coming to work on her vocal music with me in about 1/2 hour, my weekly talk with Erulisse after lunch, and then a chiropractor's appointment on my docket for the day. I still owe
sensiblecat the Epilogue - been lazy and haven't sent it on yet, bad Aeärwen!
At least I slept better. (Trying to find good things to think about here...)
Happy Wednesday, folks!
