We have had about three drenching rainstorms in the last few days, just flooded the surface, big time. The soil here is clay and it just doesn't soak in, it runs off, so for a while, you have large lakes. The robins are enjoying those "lakes" very much, like watching kids at a water park. Yes, the humidity is enough to almost make you wish you were on a desert somewhere. It is even harder for me to stand after living in CO for 30 yrs. where 11% humidity is high, now here where it is often 100%. UGH!

I am thinking tonight I am going to make some sweet tea, crank the air conditioning, put on some christmas movies in the dvd, and cut out squares for a rag quilt. I am hoping by looking at the snow it will cool me off and by cutting some squares i can make a dent in the cluttered girl cave!

My son and I went to the Columbus Zoo on the 18th. Hot and humid, so I dressed as cool as I could and still be decent. Got caught in a storm right before we left. But we really had a wonderful day! This morning we had a nice quiet rain, so glad because the gardens so needed it.

Our roofers decided to put our roof on yesterday. It was 100 here. We turned our AC off because they covered them so they wouldn't get roofing thrown in them It got 99 upstairs. My sewing machines were hot to the touch. Wow! Do I ever appreciate the AC. I'll bet it was 140 on that roof. No shade. I don't know how they do it. I live in Texas.
