it's so hot

i'm really tired of the hot weather. yesterday was so nice . . today it's muggy and sticky again. it's only june 1st. i shudder to think what july and august could be like . . this refreshing sprig of parsley is growing in our children's garden in site one, between morton and barrow streets. it looks so nice and cool . . m and c and i are trying to straighten up for my sister and brother-in-law's visit . . but we're moving like molasses, though molasses in this heat moves much more quickly.
