Good grief, it got to be 102 deg. here in beautiful Maple Valley. We always get a few degress warmer being in the foothills. I HATE it! That's one of the reasons I moved away from Wisconsin.
Struth.........actually warmer than us. Current temp range 14 or 15C to 27-29C. Absolutely delightful weather. Even cool enough to wear a sloppy joe cotten jumper at night while watching "le tour"! NEVER believed the sun made it THAT warm in Seattle!
I've been reading your blog for about a week or so after I stumbled across it from a blog review site.
With this post, it just dawned on me that we must be neighbors! I think you have that entertainment unit in front of your house right now with a free sign on it?
Don't worry, I'm not going to stalk you. I've been meaning to de-lurk, but never expected to come across a blog of someone I might have seen at safeway or out watering their lawn! (And if you don't want me to come back here, I won't. In fact I thought of just never coming back and not saying anything, but if you lived in say, Kansas, I would love to hang out at your blog sometimes!)
Hey Carol - It's so hard for me to complain about the heat since I couldn't wait for the sun to get here! I'm pretty lucky I guess since living on the water means the temps stay cooler and we get an ocean breeze through the house. I forget that it's probably damn uncomfortable for inlanders! So here are some tips on keeping cool, based on your many posts over the last several months: 1) toss boo a couple ice cubes to chew/lick on; 2) slip on those comfy merrells you just bought at REI, 3)sit out on your deck and look at the cool green lawn and trees, and 4) drink a cold German beer (or 3!) (do they drink them cold in Germany?) Keep posting, my friend - it's always fun! - Grace

Grrr still incredible lousy weather here. I am getting depressed. Had the heating on yesterday evening again.
ReplyDeleteboooohoooooo.....I want some sun and heat.
this weekend has excellent hot predictions though. I am counting down.
Next week it'll be over again though. Life's tough.

Now that WOULD be creepy, Susan... if your name weren't Susan and if YOU didn't have such a cool blog!
ReplyDeleteFunny thing is, I randomly came across YOUR blog yesterday, too! Man, it IS a small world inside that great big one, isn't it?
Come by and say HI... or take the entertainment center. You KNOW you want it! ;-)
Here's to cooler temperatures today.
