Holy moly no baking today

Yesterday was a bit surprising. Today something was definitely wrong. Both days were in the 90s but yesterday the house was at 79.

Today, the AC didn’t even try and we were in agreement: call Joe. The guy who’d installed our HVAC and duct work.

Who apologized that he couldn’t make it till Saturday.

Hey. One day? Wonderful, we can handle one day, that means there’s an end point. (Man are we spoiled and we know it, but at 94F when you can’t even ditch the house for indoor shopping for the AC because, quarantine, and you don’t own a fan because you haven’t needed one…)

I managed to put those pounds of wool partly in my lap/mostly pushed to the side for all of two rows and then I bagged it. No air conditioning, no afghan knitting in this, sorry, no way. I did at least wind yarn up for the next bit.

Tomorrow mercifully promises to be ten degrees cooler outside, and I’m going to hold it to it.

Ouch! I’m glad you only have to wait one day, but you are definitely off the hook for knitting and for baking! Sounds like a day for sitting and thinking and at most, planning. Or just sitting!

Kind of like mohair in a southern Ontario muggy heat wave. Just. Can’t. Do. It.
If you can, dip your feet and wrists in cool water now and then for a few minutes.
Maybe an “emergency fan” would be a good Father’s Day gift?
