    Wait til cooler weather! Find other projects until then.:) I don't do out side in this heat either....Mornings and evening are not much better. Just a few more weeks and this heat will be gone. Remember in January when everyone was wanting some warmth and sunshine......Well here it is!:)

    Indeed. There are many projects I can do, but those poor ladies look so neglected. Perhaps I'll just go over them with a little GoJo just to get some of the big stuff off of them, and wait for cooler weather before getting down to serious business. We have four seasons, according to the calendar. Truth of the matter is that Spring and Fall only last a few days each. On good years we have an Indian Summer. That is ideal time to work outside, it's warm but low humidity. I complain little about the winter because I can always put on more clothes. There is, however, a limit to how much I can remove. ( I did see an interesting thing on Twitter today about how to make your own no sew pasties (;-o)

    One of my foreign exchange students came to us from the former East Germany. The Wall had only been down a year, so he had grown-up with little. The family managed to make lemon pies with the lemons life dealt them, and each had a wonderful outlook on life. One of the quotes of wisdom this young high school lad imparted to us was, "There is no bad weather, only bad clothes." In the extreme heat wave we had recently, I wondered what type of clothes I needed. Perhaps a space suit.
