Roasting

We're roasting here currently. June and July weren't too bad, but August is being blisteringly hot. It's 85 degrees by 9:30 in the morning. And its still 85 at 10pm. Unfortunately, it doesn't stay 85 in between - oh no, its been up in the mid to upper 90's. Each day the radio tells us that "we'll be close to 100 today". Arrrggghh. I don't like this kind of heat. I feel trapped indoors. The lawn needed some work, so I was out mowing (yesterday) and edging (today) starting at 8am, so I could get finished before it was scorching.

I'm ready for some rain to cool things down a bit (and because we're still in a drought and could really use the rain). Not much in sight, though.
