Heat Wave!
Jul. 25th, 2009 02:36 pmSo, usually, in the Willamette Valley we'll have a few days each summer that get up above 90 degrees Fahrenheit, a lot of 80-degree days, and even more days in the 70s. We have had more 90+ days in the last two weeks than we normally have in a whole summer. And they're saying next week should have two days over 100.
I'd call it global warming, except that our winters (particularly this last one) have been colder than they've been in my lifetime. It's not that the average year-round temperature is going up, it's that we're getting more extremes (and heavier storms) at both ends of the spectrum.
Either way, I've been staying inside a lot.
On the bright side, I finally figured out a top to go with the cute skirt I got in Hawaii. It's purple with cream flowers. I have white tops. I do not have cream tops. I have a purple cami that goes with it, but I can't wear a cami to church or to someplace I need to look professional without something else either over or under it. (And I rarely wear skirts except to church or when I need to look professional.) I just realized, I have a black tanktop that, if worn under it, would provide adequate coverage. Yay!
