ever since friday night (when i was separating 12 dozen eggs for the birthday party cake) it has been TOO DARN HOT!
saturday at the party in prospect park we were relieved from the heat by a lovely breeze . . but saturday night . . back in the apartment . . i tossed and turned in the night. it was, once again, TOO DARN HOT!
every morning i would wake at 6 am to feed the cats and then i would collapse again onto the bed . . in a stupor . . no energy . . listless . . weighed down by humidity and heavy limbs . .
everywhere i went, people were saying . . from winter to summer . . where is our spring????? it felt like we had gone from the frying pan (rain rain rain) into the fire . . 
finally, at about 4 am this morning . . the air was dry and the breeze was cool. i woke at 6 am to feed the animals . . and stayed awake!!! i felt energetic . . cool . . refreshed . . and even a little happy! and right now the breeze through the window is boisterous and indulgent. we're off this evening to morgana's guitar recital.
Oh, Dorina, we had the same. Yesterday there was a short thunderstorm and it cooled down. It went down to the 40s overnight and today it was almost cold! My parents arrived in New York on Monday and did sight-seeing in this heat. My poor mother is very sensitive to the heat. I talked to her yesterday and she found it very taxing. They have since left New York and are on their way to us.
ReplyDeleteoh dear! i'm sorry they had to sight-see in such unpleasant weather! i'm glad it's cooler now and more comfortable. i'm sure it will be a wonderful visit!
ReplyDeleteNothing like a looong, hot night to toss and turn! I hope you will get some cooler winds soon.
