Seattle All Time Heat Record

Seattle broke an all time heat record today with a high of 103 degrees. The previous record for downtown was set in July of 1941. 103 is 26 degrees hotter than the average for July, 29. It's hot for sure, especially considering most people don't have air conditioning in their homes. Thankfully, I do. It's a comfortable 68 in my condo. The heat wave is supposed to last through the weekend. We are under an "excessive heat warning" until next week. Not sure if it's the heat or what, but I'm in a funk and am a bit homesick. I need to snap out of it though.

I like that phrase--"Snap out of it." If only it were that easy. Whenever we are feeling blah, wouldn't it be great if we could just snap and return to "happy-go-lucky." It's a pity it's not that easy. I need to find Mary Poppins. She used the snapping to clean up toys; maybe she has a version for this. Or perhaps the seven dwarves have a whistling routine for it. Although I'm not that good at whistling...so maybe that wouldn't help after all.

I saw this and thought it was pretty funny, and then turned even more ironic. It doesn't have anything to do with this post, but I like posts with videos, so here one is.

Anyway, this was a rambling rant, but at least it was a post.

Until the next one, (and I suppose even after the next one) take care.
