‘Twas the night before the weekend,
And something was in the air.
His face looked concerned when he told me,
Though he tried to hide his despair.
****
“The internet’s stopped working!
I don’t know what to do!”
To ease his mind by distraction I said,
“The hot water’s stopped working too!”
****
He reached for my hand and squeezed it,
Breathed deep and smiled at me.
“At least after your cold shower,” he said,
“You can still have a hot cup of tea.”

[Inspired by an internet-free 3 days which turned out to be very liberating and enjoyable. Internet’s back but not the hot water – that’s ok, cold showers are very refreshing 😉 ]

Yeah – it’s a bit much. But when it’s 30+ out, humid and the ‘heat index’ is something 36 or more – it’s not too bad. Fortunately, a week ago Saturday was the end of summer. The worst, most-humid, miserable day. Everyone – and I mean everyone – was complaining. And I thought, “Well, this is it. Summer is over.” And, sure enough, it’s cooling. Relatively speaking.
But, I grew up out west. I miss jackets and cool evenings and even a little bit of winter.
Take care.
