It is Tuesday, very hot with a high expected to reach 98! Ugh, and tomorrow is expected to get to a scorching 100 degrees! How is anyone supposed to get anything done in this kind of melting heat? A trip to the car...that is sitting in full sun in the driveway...is enough to melt a person, but sitting down in that oven on wheels is just enough to make you want to go inside and tell the family tonight we are dinning on peanut butter and jelly crackers because Mom is a wimp and didn't want to brave the heat to go get groceries. I love it living in the south but the older I get I question this decision not made for me when I was just a crawling baby.
When I was about 9 months old my Dad moved the family from Arkansas to Atlanta for a better job. I do agree with that part...life for us was good growing up! But, as an adult I had the option of dreaming and moving to see the world and find a place with better climate. I really wonder on days like this just why I didn't set my goals on living on the beach at least there is a breeze...or in the mountains where there is always a cool morning and evening. It was 87 degrees when we went to bed last night! I know...we tried sitting on the porch swing sipping a glass of wine...I am a wimp that doesn't like to sweat. Then why the heck am I living in the south I am wondering today?
Dream on I tell myself because to move would require us to have to clean out the basement and the attic...let alone move all the stuff in my sewing room! Oh, that is a dream stopper right there...eeeerrrrk!
