Was our first really warm day, almost 31C in the shade. Curtains were kept closed, large blind on the bedrooms was out. Curtains were only opened once the sun had moved around.
Ruby for the most part, stayed in the shade but we didn’t allow her to stay out too long, it was cooler indoors. DB went to the attic for the electric fan, which helped a lot. Despite all that, the bedrooms were 26C come night time.
Had a lovely chat with DS, always a pleasure. Glad to hear they have at long last sold their old car and previous young horse. DDiL has found herself another job thank goodness. Her employers were not at all bothered. Same hours but over 4 days so that will help enormously.
This morning it is warm but with a bit more breeze. Just been out for an early walk, we all feel warm and sticky now.
I'm sorry for your heatwave and glad that Ruby is not suffering. We're in the nineties with lots of humidity so staying indoors and carrying water when I go out.
ReplyDeleteThanks. I think humidity is almost worse than simple heat as it is so draining.
DeleteI actually don't mind the heat (which I might add is not happening here) it is the humidity I struggle with.
ReplyDeleteSame here. Today has been cooler with a brisk wind.
