Humidity Ho Hum

It's been like Queensland around here lately. For almost 2 weeks we've had hot humid weather, warm humid weather and cool humid weather. It's rather unusual, and although I'm not ecstatic about it, I'm thankful for some of turning to some amazing (albeit still humid) rain, and perhaps it has even kept the fire threat down. Still, to be honest, I'd prefer normal rain, less humidity and less drought.

I've gone from a 5 day work week to a 3 day work week then back to a 4 day work week. It's been a bit disorienting, but at least I've gotten to have some lunch with friends and help my sister-in-law move (at least nominally - I did get a few items in my car from one house to the other). They are staying in an adorable unit until their new house is built. Here's praying they don't have to move again after that (unless they really want to!). I think they hold some kind of record.

The other great news is that friends of ours are going to be parents for the first time. Seeing the great job their folks did with them, I suspect this child is going to be all right. And given that niece-in-law Heidi & her husband Adrian will be contributing a good child to the world in the not too distant future, I fully expect there to be a generation of really great kids on this side of pond.
