Warmer than usual for April
There's no use complaining about our heat wave in California. Many folks live in climates with summer temperatures that are above 90 degrees most of the summer. And we're blessed to have only a few days a year that get higher than the mid-80s. It does seem as though it's come a bit early this year. We just have to keep the potted plants watered and catch our exercise time in the early morning or late evening when the temperatures have moderated. Dinner ideas move toward salad, sandwiches or even cereal, rather than casseroles that require heating up the oven. We don't have central air in this house, but a couple of years ago we bought a room air conditioner for the office, so I can at least work in comfort on the days that do get hot. Most of the time I can cool things nicely by opening windows for a good cross-breeze. It's amazing how little things that add to comfort can make so much difference in one's ability to be productive.
