A Matter Of Degrees

Wow..over two weeks since my last post. Sorry, but this post may explain my absence from the blogosphere.

It's been hot. I mean scorching, already sweaty after being outside for a minute, hot. The sort of heat that sucks the life out of you and makes you (or just me) very cranky. Add to that working 45 hours per week for me and 50+ for Chris means that we haven't been our usual cheerful selves.

Did I mention just how darned hot it was?

Our a/c couldn't keep up, so inside it was generally about 80 degrees, at best, during the day.

Everyone else was hot and cranky too.

But, this week, temps are more normal. It's funny to say "gee, it's only 90, it feels great", but it's true. We've both been able to sleep better and that helps as well.

Hope you all are having a fun Fourth of July. We are both working but there will be fireworks tonight (and some at the park too, nyuk, nyuk) and everyone seems to be in a festive mood (see cooler temps reference above).

My Independence Day resolution...more faithful blogging.
