Well, it's more humid than it is in winter, but usually it just gets to where you feel like you could cut the air just before a thunderstorm like we had on Thursday. The humidity usually isn't enough to hurt me, though sometimes it gets a bit hard to breathe. It's just that 31C isn't normal for Edmo...

It's all I'd ever known. We carried water from the well(s), and at the last place there, from the dugouts. I was proud of the day I was finally tall enough to carry two big buckets of water at once.

Sounds like it's time to find a way to make that bumper sticker. *sympathy*

I was like "what discussion on feet?" and then realized paws ARE feet! Must have been the cold I had muddled my brain ... Are you feeling better Tam I am? Was it the flu? Cold virus? It was that time in the month, mixed with unusual heat for my area. Yesterday I had to go out for grocerie...

ziti. Gluten free, with salted applesauce, please.
