Awfully Hot Out Isn’t It

Posted by Mark | Filed under Life

So far this year, the weather has been just incred­i­bly mild; we’d only hit 80+ degrees once prior to this week. Nat­u­rally this long string of lovely weather inspired me to save up some house­hold tasks for this week, when I’m out of the office on fur­lough. And nat­u­rally enough, Mother Nature decided to pun­ish me for that deci­sion by mak­ing this the week that summer-style weather kicked in. Rather than those upper 70s to do my paint­ing of the bath­room, clean­ing out the garage, trim­ming the hedges, etc… I get upper 80s with a high enough humid­ity to make it feel like upper 90s. Of course, that’s just in the morn­ing; this after­noon the pre­dic­tion is for the temps to reach 95 degrees.

Blech.  This is like the North Car­olina sum­mers of my youth. I didn’t han­dle hot weather very well then and I don’t han­dle any bet­ter now. Dou­ble blech.
