Only one week left of June.
I have to reflect on the speed of the weeks, months years that pass. My attitude has been so angry and negative about another desert summer. Here June is almost over and the dog days will get heavily laden with the intensity of 110+ heat. How Can I get through it if I don't change my attitude? So I must choose to do so.
Top 10 things I like about Summer Here......
1) Air conditioning and the ability to pay the bill for it.
2) Staying home and being calm without all the running around (There are less people out when your on the roads, all the tourist have gone home).
3) Ice water, opening the freezer to get the ice is a treat.
4) Pretending like I'm snow bound and doing lots of craft projects because its so cold outside.
5) Lazy days that have an excuse (the heat wears you out) Planning gardens for the fall .
6) My car in the garage cools down faster and my hands don't get burnt.
7) Lots of groceries in the freezer so I don't have to go out and when I do the stores are cold in the freezer sections.
8) Lots of supplies for projects so I don't have to go out. I get jobs done that I put off when i can be outdoors in the late fall/winter/spring ( if and when the inversion is not so bad as to light up my asthma).
9) Air conditioning in my car and not having to depend on a bus or others.
10) Less laundry because shorts and sleeveless tops make smaller piles (in theory).
Please help by listing your top 10 things you like about Desert Summers
