Yesh. Hotter for sure than the Hubs of Hades. Just now — coming on to late in the afternoon — it’s A HUNDRED AND NINE DEGREES in the deepest shade of the north-facing back patio.
Augh, I say to that. AUGHHH!
Sooo…Ruby and I are trapped in the house, at least until the sun goes down.
More likely, until it comes up tomorrow.
I’m totally wilted, and probably should take a nap. But it’s after 4:00 p.m. If I flop down on the bed now, it’s likely to be midnight before I wake up. And then I’ll be awake for the rest of the night.
😀
Well. That might be a slight exaggeration. But the truth is, it’s pretty much too late for napping now.
So, I reckon the Human will loaf in front of the computer until something resembling bed-time. Then hope for a decent night’s sleep.
Do need to get Pool Dude over here to check on the workings of that contraption. But later. Much later. Tomorrow, for example…
My son dragged me out to the Mayo this morning. GAWD, do I ever hate going to doctors.
LOL! Then, to my astonishment, he took it upon himself to answer some of the doc’s questions and to try to describe my ongoing nuttiness. 😀 That poor doctor!
Ohhh well. He now has no clue to an accurate report of what’s going on with me. But that seems not to matter. Either he realized that, or he didn’t think whatever my body is doing is very significant. Didn’t order any tests. Didn’t ask me to come back.
RUN!
AWAY!!
{chortle!}
Anyway, it was an annoying traipse, but I felt like I got away pretty much Scot-free. Hooooray!
And…now, at 4:00 in the afternoon, it’s 109 degrees out there in the back yard. Too hot even to jump in the pool!
No doubt, too, the pavement will be too hot for Ruby’s little paws, even after the sun goes down. It can stay unbearably hot here until well after 10 p.m.
So I guess today’s doggy-walk will have to wait until tomorrow morning, along about 5:00 a.m.
But whenever the sun goes down this evening, it’ll be into the drink for the human!
