Too hot too soon

 

     Wow, did it get hot today.  The temperature leapt to ninety-one.  If you add to that a lot of humidity, you can be sure that DH was miserable.  He turned on the AC. 

     The pups were happy since they like the AC and they squabbled for the best place on the floor in front of the unit.  Share?  Are you kidding?  It’s like living with perpetual three-year olds.

     I like the heat so it didn’t bother me.  I did some work outside and then took advantage of the heavily shaded hammock.  All was fine while there was a breeze, but when that stopped, I decided it was time to retire to the house where it was cooler.

     I hadn’t realized how hot it was outside until I walked into the kitchen.  The cool non-humid air hit me like a tall ocean wave and felt as refreshing.  However, I do hate sitting in the house all the time so I was soon back outside. 

     I harvested the rhubarb and took some over to G.  Then I baked a rhubarb custard pie for tonight’s dessert—pure heaven.  DH was more than a little delighted.

  1. Only got to 87 here today:-P Felt really good after all those cold rainy days we’d been having. Weatherman said we’d be having a hotter, drier summer than last year. Suits me just fine since summer barely got here last year and it was fall.

    Yes, last summer seemed so darned short.

    not fair talking about dessert when I’m so far away thank god for AC. to help with your DH.

    I’d pass you some but then my computer would get all sticky… 😉

  3. I am so-o-o-o-o ready for November!

    BITE YOUR TONGUE!!! We haven’t yet begun to sizzle…and I want to do a bit of sizzling.

  4. What are you? A steak?

    You can have all your sizzle. I’d ship you all mine, too, if I could. I’d be in heaven if it never got hotter than 75.

    No, I’m not big enough to pass for a side of beef. Hot weather brings with it gardening and being able to be outside. Winter means I’m stuck inside because I can’t stand being cold. I can’t help it I enjoy summer.
