SHEs Organized

Good morning!
Thanks for the start Kittykatt - happy to hear about your cooler temperatures.
FFly 32C at night? That sounds unbearable. Glad things are settling.
Harriett I always wanted to learn to quilt. A wonderful skill to have.
Gma you do so many things well. Secretarial skills aren't for everyone. Hope you got your sleep.

Apparently, we are about to get our first heatwave next week. (I was quite happy to pull on a sweater last night before we went to dinner...)
Currently, gorgeous sunshine, 18 C,

Today:
I need to
pop in to market?
water porch plants,
fill the two containers in the basement
keep laundry going
bake muffins
take pup for walk
go to yoga
maybe ... start a hat? (crochet)

Morning all. I hope you are all ok. Yes the heat is hard when it's so extreme and you are not as accustomed. Here we're finally getting some summer. 25 ish Celsius mid day? It cools a lot at night and now it's raining again. That's ok cause it has been quite dry. Seems it rains but not much soaks in. The grass is dry in some areas.

Busy morning mostly made by me
Dh and ds planned to be at dad's by 9 to get that big sectional. It was just new when my kids were babies. Light grandparents use and then they changed things around got a new set for upstairs and it went to the basement. It missed the worst part of mom's decline cause she couldn't get downstairs. So way better than any of ours. Except it's big. I need to do a bunch of moving stuff first. I think I will empty the living room completely Except the TV. Vacuum the whole thing and see if I need to spot clean. Finding room so it can come in here without stuff in the way. All before we go out.

Looks like midweek here before the temperatures get into the 90s. I am moving slow today… on purpose!

Good morning Laurlind and LAnn

Back from our coffee walk. Met DD and DGD for coffee with Dpup. I managed to carry my coffee cup home - that was good.
She was much more excitable on the busy street than during our normal (residential area) walks...
Not so smart dog owners let their dog come straight at her... did not care that I said she'd react. (Oh, he is friendly - famous words). Thankfully, pup's reaction was mild: one bark.

Off to flip laundry - then to class.

Good morning! I am listening to my Saturday morning radio shows. I see that our hard working SHEs have gotten us to Page 2 already.

Thank you for starting us off, Kittykatt.

(((FrenchFly))) we have been thinking of you this week as we saw those temperatures day after day in France. I'm glad that the heat is starting to abate.

Kittykatt, it sounds like your schools' administrators are doing their best to keep the children safe with the resources available. I don't think that our schools are air conditioned either, which is surprising considering that hot summers are no surprise to us.

I remember those days, Gma! Also, there were two summers where Mom and kids went to stay at a cottage on the lake for the summer. We were moving often at that time, so we would move from our home to the cottage and then on to the new home. But other families did the same, and the father commuted from town every weekend.

And I remember running throught the sprinkler, Harriet. Enjoy your trip to the grocery store. Bring a chair and enjoy the cool.

Kittykatt, I went through a stage where I was getting headaches in the heat and wondered if I was getting a sensitivity to heat. Then I realized that I wasn't drinking coffee because of the heat, and I was going through caffeine withdrawal. Now I drink my coffee in front of a fan like an Australian.

LOL, your DD is a wise one, Harriet!

That brings me to end of Page 1, and I think that I heard the rice pot click. [wanders off, smacking lips]

Kittykatt, and others, headache could be from electrolyte depletion with drinking that much water. Oranges and juice, Tomato juice, melons especially cantaloupe, potatoes, are exceptional sources, some even better than the proverbial banana which is cited primarily because it is so handy and easy to eat. Some salt (sodium chloride) is OK too 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon American, and helps absorption of both the water and other nutrients.
