I hear you on the battle for the thermometer! Also I did wear sandals yesterday! No socks. And a winter coat!

I’ve definitely done the sandals and coat combo.

I definitely turned on the heat last weekend when I saw two back to back days of “low 60s”.

+1 on the amazing headshot!

Sympathizing mightily about the summer work deadlines. 😱 And happy to share our (hopefully short-lived) heat dome!

“the dopamine hit of likes and comments”

“assured me it was a great idea, and said he was excited to have two now.”

At least you are declining with self-awareness and style! 😝

Ruthie and I roadtripped to your part of the state in 2022! We drove to Sacramento, then over to the Truckee area. I can't recall off the top of my head if we drove across Hwy 50 or I-80. Beautiful area, but yes, super duper hot.

Yes, it is, but not this morning I'll have you know! It's cloudy and a few rain drops. But it will be hot later in the day. So enjoying the smell of rain!

"WE ARE NOT TURNING ON THE HEAT IN JUNE!" 🤣

We thought the British summer would never arrive here in the south-east corner... but for the last couple of days it's been trying harder than it had been. I'm still in long sleeves - but I acknowledge that our chilly summer so far has likely been nothing like Seattle! 😁

I've always taken comfort that British weather is similar to Seattle weather. Makes me feel less alone! LOL

LOL - I know you know what rain is in Seattle - so yes, we Brits have plenty in common with you in that respect! 😁😁😁
