In the Thick of Summer
My goodness, it's already August - time just flies and flies. There have been some very hot days, but also a very few nights that have actually been starting to be a little - dare I say it? - cooler than before. We had a week of no central AC which was tough for the husband, who gets overheated when it's 60 degrees Fahrenheit.

I think it comes from not having AC as kids - we both grew up in NY and summers were plenty hot then, too. We got by on fans if we were lucky enough to have them. We would run through the sprinkler, go swimming if/when we could - and - joy of joys - make our way into a supermarket, library, or other business that had central air to cool off. Ah the good old days. Today was a really nice day.
