I meant heat.*L* Didn't notice the type-o until you pointed it out SIG. I fixed it and will go back and fix my original message.
My province is stuck with the heat until next Tuesday.
I should have known!
Next Tuesday, you say? That's kind of a long heat wave for you, isn't it?

It's been "cool" here this week, but except for when the clouds were out yesterday it never actually felt cool because of the humidity.
Hot again next week though. I think I saw Wednesday and Thursday would be mid 90's again with a real feel closer to 110 degrees.
Yay!

The crazy thing is, it's been cooler here than where either of you live. More humid than usual, tho.
The sad thing is, I've been too tired to make good use of the moderate weather!

Don't be TOO hard on yourself. You know you're trying.
And besides... unlike me and Brenda, you don't have 4 to 6 months where it's so cold that everything is dead outside.

I pulled weeds for another 6 hours yesterday and finally got everything clean and then mowed the back yard. Trash pickup was on Thursday and I already have two huge cans nearly full of weeds and grass again, with just enough room for a bag or two of trash leftover. So... 4 huge cans of lawn/weed debris in 4 days this week. Wowzers...
Going to clean up inside my house and get it perfect today. I *think* my aunt and grandma are coming over tomorrow. It's not going to be cool, but it won't be unbearably hot either and I haven't' had them over since the end of April. I've got a LOT to show off since the last time they were here.

Depending on how busy I am next week, I might see if my old man wants to come over before the perfect yard gets un-perfect again. He still hasn't seen my finished shelves or all the new electric in the garage or the pantry drawers.

Yup, that is what the weather people are saying. It is. But this stretch is nothing compared to last year which last a couple of weeks and we hit triple digits in lots of places in BC including down where I am.
My area is expecting rain on Tuesday but up in the Interior they will have to watch for lighting as well as the rain.

Out for my walk in a bit. Nothing heavy to do.

Back from my walk and the mall wasn't as cool today as it was yesterday. All done. Just having a sit down and thinking about some ice cream.

Well, I was running around like a crazy woman today bc I had this strange mis-impression that today was Sunday. And that I needed to get everything out for trash and recycling like RIGHT NOW. So I cut up a lot of boxes and sorted out a lot of recycling and hubby cut up an old foam mattress for disposal. Whew! And then when I was agitating to get the bins I got a funny look and the comment "You DO know that today's Saturday not Sunday, right?"
Also getting a bunch of stuff ready for donation. Baby steps towards decluttering but steps forward nonetheless. Plus, I found something that hubby has been harping about fir months now. So, there's that!
Well, at least I'm a day ahead of schedule!
