Hiding from the HEAT

[puppetmaker]

I know it is June and it is suppose to be summer and all the rest but there is hot and there is HOT. Right now we are in the HOT mode. So I am doing all those things I learned while living in the south for so many years to keep cool and also get things done. Ice tea tastes better than it does on a cool day too.

Many of the projects I have lined up are indoor anyway. I have some costumes to make. If I ever hear back from the Farpoint ArtShow, I might have some dolls and puppets to create. That gives me about a month to do this. But first I have a Doctor to finish and send off like a message in a bottle.

I have never liked hot. I am honestly a polar bear. I love the cold. Heat and I don't work out very well. And when we hit absurd heat, I swear parts of my brain just shut down in protest.

I need to go into the city at some point (probably next Wednesday) to look for one more fabric that I need. But I can get at least one costume and most of a second done. And I need to make a pair of pants to complete another costume. I really should make a list.

I am grateful for schools that pay attention to their students rather than just pushing them through.

I heard you had some heat up there. I am sure you have heard from your family how gross it is here in Atlanta. I don't ever remember it being this hot this early in the summer here. Oof.

Stay cool and have a productive day!

How did things go with Caroline's placement? Or is that later today?

*hands you cold glass of iced tea* Stay cool up there!

You have hot, we have unseasonal cold. Al the vegetables are late this year and all the farmers market has is lettuce and spinach D:

I love heat, but I have my limits.

Cold makes me want to hide.

The only good thing about the cold is the snuggling.

This heat has been insane! I am glad that you are keeping cool! I have been debating whether I should bring the kids out in it again so A can attend every day of the last week of school, or if i should just keep them in to recover from yesterday's heat. Usually july and August are the hotter months - I hope this is just a fluke and it gets back down to the 80s!
