It has been hotter than hell and just as humid lately, morning noon and night. While I’ve tried to be a trooper, I couldn’t bring myself to take Harvey on our morning walk this morning, the first morning I’ve missed in 3 weeks. I feel bad, becuase I know he loves his walks, but it was just too damn hot for me. I had hoped to try a walk this afternoon, but as of 5:48 today, the temps have not dropped and it’s still sunny and humid out, so no go.
It has been a rough start back to work, trying to catch up on 6 weeks of work, emails, and messages. I’m exhausted at the end of the workday and find myself retiring to the sofa to watch TV until I go to bed, too tired to do anything else.
Yesterday, I made the mistake of contacting IT about a program that wasn’t working for me, and after two days of giving them remote access to my computer (I work from home) not only does the program still not work, several other things no longer work either and I get error messages popping up all day long. So, even though I am approved to work from home full time throuh August 15th, I have to go into the office tomorrow so they can work directly on my laptop and fix whatever they messed up remotely. Sigh.
I had hoped to go to the shopping outlets in Lee, Massachusettes this weekend (about an hour away) but it’s going to be too hot and humid, and I can’t be trying on new clothes when I’m all sweaty from walking fom store to store, so we’ve scrapped that idea. Whatever we wind up doing this weekend, instead, it will be indoors, in central air or air conditioning.
And it will be done without pants…
That sounds like intense heat. Hopefully the humidity leaves soon for you all.

Oh that IT department. You should show up to work tomorrow without pants, just to express your displeasure.

You don’t have to tell me twice. My boxers are chilling in the icebox as we speak.

Ob, SassyBear, I hear, you. 100+ real feel is nearly every day here in Savannah, and its just exhausting.

I can’t stand even walking out onto the patio to let Harvey out.

I often pretend to be on the verge of fainting to force Robert to go outside and do various chores for me. That’s love, right?

Suuure it is. I often pretend I’m on the verge of divorce to force Jeffrey to do everything.

It just might be too hot for a dog, especially the paws on sidewalks. I never wear pants unless I am going to go into the car for shopping or a drive. I love a nightgown for the house or a housedress which is the same, just different fabric.

Good point, Linda. We are pausing walks until it cools down. I should look into a night gown. Even a teeshirt and boxers feels too heavy lately.

Yes, without pants is my style throughout the summer… and often the rest of the year. Sorry about the weather and, especially, that awful humidity.

It’s pretty bad. I’m grateful we have central air. But I want it to get better so I can enjoy my morning walks with Harvey again.

I used to live in that heat every summer, and I’ll never do that again unless I own a home that has central air conditioning in it. I’m sorry you’re going through that right now.

We are lucky to have central air, two air conditioners, and two rotating tower fans to help get us through.

No pants. That’s good.
Too hot: that’s bad.
I was in Kansas on Saturday (23 July) and it was 108 degrees ambient, not even heat index. It was unbelievable!
Hopefully things have cooled down for you now.
