Every summer I do a hot hot hot post but usually it's in August. We're having a heat wave this week. The temperature hasn't gone above 20C/68F this year, until today. It shot up to 25C/77F this afternoon and the rest of the week is going to be a scorcher. Tomorrow - 30C/86F, Wednesday - 34C/93F, Thursday - 36C/97F and Friday - 35C/95F. I have an appointment in town on Wednesday and guess who's delivering newspapers on Thursday and Friday. I told DH not to be surprised if he finds me knitting away in the reception area of his cool, air conditioned office. I told him I'd bring my lunch.
