Its too hot.

The days here are long and hot.  Sticky and oppressing.

I am longing for cooler weather, wishing I was somewhere else where summer was coming to an end and crisp mornings soon greeted me.  

Its hard to be motivated to do more than just hide away in the house, with the a/c blowing and the ceiling fans swirling above.  My to do list sits there waiting for me, but all I can do is stay still and pray for night when the temperature drops 5 degrees.

Aurelia has taken shelter in the closet, avoiding her blanket I've laid out for her under the clothes.  She finds comfort in the dark, with her furry toes spread out on the hardwood floor.
