Yesterday, it was $%&*#@! HOT, HOT, HOT, but that wasn't the worst of it! Because there was a power outtage that lasted 8 hours, obviously I wasn't going to get relief from the a/c or fan! An aging pole just fell over and on the edge of the roof of a nearby building! No one was hurt or driving through at the time, or they would have gotten fried! I heard stories about the stupid garbage truck hitting it, termites, etc. It had been leaning for years, and it looked bad already that it seemed a "matter of time" before it fell, for whatever reason.

Had to keep the windows open even though that let in noise and exhaust fumes from the utility trucks! But closing the windows would be worse, since not even a fan could be used for a breeze.

It is COOLER today, and it is supposed to be even better tomorrow. I HATE HOT weather, and I want it to COOL off and just be comfortable. I don't want to freeze, but I don't want to roast! About 70 degrees is nice, with no more than 40% humidity, and cool nights...like 50 degrees.
