The grass is basically dead everywhere too- Husband will mow the weeds tomorrow. <br />Heat is something I guess I need to get used to if I can. Spring is better, so is Fall! <br />Stay cool.Vickie @Vickie's Kitchen and Gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03402367232977896594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5623860601773162733.post-73654530864442929792020-07-08T14:04:42.413-04:002020-07-08T14:04:42.413-04:00No you do not sound too cranky...my husband teases...No you do not sound too cranky...my husband teases me about the ac. He says I'm so much nicer during cool weather.. (eye roll).<br /><br />Our summers used to be upper 90s to 110. I've measured temps on my front porch well over 120' on a hot summer afternoon. Ugh! Add high humidity & you may as well just drown me...I cannot bear it at all. The grass used to die by the end of June. Just brittle brown dust that was so bad little dust clouds buffed up with each step we took...& when the dog ran it was crazy dust. <br /><br />So, Low 90s with no humidity seems almost like paradise to me. Though even 80s is much hotter than I like. I like days in 60s & nights in the 40s.Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00305409125105992525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5623860601773162733.post-15620067002763033192020-07-07T20:52:11.949-04:002020-07-07T20:52:11.949-04:00The rain helps a lot doesn't it Melissa?

We just are used to the 80s in the summer as our normal temps. You can have them those high 90s back.<br />Oh I hope we get rain soon.<br />Vickie @Vickie's Kitchen and Gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03402367232977896594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5623860601773162733.post-14274133736933469412020-07-07T12:10:24.474-04:002020-07-07T12:10:24.474-04:00The humidity must have moved north this summer.

Even when we hit mid to upper 90s. My husband & I are thoroughly enjoying it & hoping this will become normal for our summers. <br /><br />We got two really nice showers over the weekend....no watering for a couple of days! I was so excited.

It is blessed relief from the heat and I can see everything greening up and sighing with happiness at the break and the rain. I should get some baking done too since the house is so cool today. Have a happy birthday with your daughter.Lanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09380649410508372279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5623860601773162733.post-45783270208110964632020-07-07T08:56:25.713-04:002020-07-07T08:56:25.713-04:00Heatwave here as well - about 10 days of plus 90F ...Heatwave here as well - about 10 days of plus 90F but feeling like 100F with the humidity. I get up early for walks, cooking and any major cleaning - then I close the blinds and crank up the fans. I have A/C in the bedroom so at least I can sleep at night and I'll spend an hour or so in there in the afternoon if it gets too bad.<br />I hate this weather as I have no energy. There are thunderstorms due on the weekend so I'm hoping that might bring a bit of relief.<br />Be careful when out in the garden.Margie from Torontohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10103835021764804099noreply@blogger.com
