I guess the problem is that during the normal work week I *have* to go out in it and.... do stuff. But it's eased off a bit so so that's cool(er).CyberKittenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06394155516712665665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17922979.post-73852827801801958902018-07-10T22:12:50.415+01:002018-07-10T22:12:50.415+01:00Heh...if you ever decide to visit the US South, yo...Heh...if you ever decide to visit the US South, you may want to aim at...January and February. Otherwise it's very likely our temps are above 70F. Even if we have cold snaps and sleet in Dec or Mar, we could still have 80F degree weather later that month. We're so accustomed to hot weather that I was surprised to learn that in other areas AC is not the norm. I have friends in Oregon who have never bothered with it, and heat waves make them miserable.<br /><br /><br />At the moment my central AC is out and I'm making do with two window units and an industrial fan. My poor PC is a vampire, only allowed to power up at night. I do it for its own protection...

It's *so* going to be a HUGE Charlie Foxtrot!<br /><br />@ V V: Shared Viking Heritage [lol]. I'm definitely spending more energy holding back my temper and am definitely more irritable. Luckily we don't get this sort of thing too often or for too long though, I guess with Global Warming, it'll be happening more often in the next 30 or so years I'll be around to suffer through it.CyberKittenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06394155516712665665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17922979.post-8393134662218728522018-07-10T02:05:59.360+01:002018-07-10T02:05:59.360+01:00You are exactly like me!

I grew up in central New York around the Finger Lakes region. Summers were pleasantly warm during the day, and cool and moist in the evening. Nobody had air conditioners. Now I’m back near that area and it’s so hot, for too long, and we need to use A/C. We’ve truly screwed up our planet. 😔VVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08751403913379728345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17922979.post-71839686993600673902018-07-09T23:47:32.072+01:002018-07-09T23:47:32.072+01:00it hasn't been above 70 here for quite a while...it hasn't been above 70 here for quite a while but it's supposed to get up to 80 this week... it was 45 this morning (this is in nw oregon about 50 miles from Astoria)... i don't really understand the Brexit thing; but if it's anything like the US's problems, it's all the fault of the politicians and they're uncontrollable greed...Mudpuddlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17194891656971454279noreply@blogger.com
