Hot and Bothered

Filed under: Reflections - Ric @ 2:35 pm

Just when you thought that the crazy weather was over, that the bitter chill that had enveloped central Ontario was dispelled, a heat wave rears it’s ugly head. Seven days ago it was unseasonably cold with temperatures well below the 10 degree celcius mark. Today with associated humidex the apparent temperature is well near 40 degrees celcius! Can you say swelter?

…all part of the balance…

Of course, if I had kept my stressful infuriating job in the city, in the nice, temperature controlled, air conditioned, office of the damned, the outside temperature would still be bearable. But NO! I had to opt for working at home, free as a bird, and thus, by some oddly connected way, force the temperature into the Sub-Saharan zone. No air conditioning, pool not ready yet (except for the ducks). Mind you I could sweat off four or five pounds if this keeps up.

It’s all part of the balance of life.

    At least it’s not as humid there as it is here … you need to take two showers in a day to get rid of the ickiness.

    I forgot … I haven’t been to your part of the world yet so I don’t know how humid it is there.

    It’s probably much more humid where you are. I once spent a couple of months in Central America and had to shower frequently to beat the heat.

    I like the temperate in between times, neither the summer scorch, nor the winter freeze for me.
