Rain and heat

~winter

I was out weeding just after 8 this morning. Already in the mid 20s, crazy warm for this time of year. A quick breakfast, then back at it: mowing, filling the feeders, etc.

Several more hours of running around, and then the rest of the day has been relaxing. Music practice, working on some future gemlog entries, watching Jays-Mets and the NHL finals.

It's been raining on and off for hours. It hasn't done a thing for the heat. I just took the trash out, and it's _hot_. We're supposed to get back to more seasonable temperatures soon, and I can't wait. I've never seen it this hot this early in the year. It's been a good two weeks of this, too. Haven't been running, and have just taken the dogs for short walks.

Thank goodness for AC. I grew up in a tall, narrow, three story house with no AC. How did I live? I remember sleeping in the basement half the summer. Then glorious radiator heat in the winter, a boiler so massive the family that bought it from my parents when they sold apparently had to have it cut into pieces and lifted out.

I don't mind cold temperatures, but I have problem with AC. That cold blow makes me sick. Not even in the car during summer.
