"I'm melting . . ."

It's over 110 degrees in Monrovia. Apparently at one point today, it was 113 in Los Angeles - since LA is always a few degrees cooler than we are, that means that it was even hotter at some point today.

This is when I'm glad I'm not a P.E. teacher!!

The paper said it would be cool and breezy today. And it was. But now it's very breezy indeed. Breezy like when we get Santa Anna winds.

I'm going to crawl into bed and try not to think about what will get blown all over the yard.

I sometimes go days without stepping into the backyard. So if I haven't worried about it until now, I guess there really isn't much to worry about.

I'm just glad we don't have palm trees in our yard. And that my calla lilies are hardy.
