Stupid Heat Wave

9-9-15
Happy birthday to my Pop!
It has been a goofy morning what with it being kind of busy, but not super busy. I haven’t had a chance to do the things I would like to do, but I have accomplished a lot. See, I told you it was goofy.
Yesterday’s painting adventure went well. I got most of the fields re-marked. I had to weave in and out of practices, but most of the teams were quite understanding. The whole thing took so much longer than I had hoped, especially since I couldn’t finish. That was partly because I was putting the paint on rather thick and I spent a lot of time talking to random folks who had questions. I felt all important with my standard issue straw hat, walking the field like I owned the place. Sometimes it is quite nice that I am recognized for my soccer stuff.
It is crazy stupid hot this week. I woke this morning drenched in sweat. The plan is to head to Lowe’s when I get home to see about getting a portable air conditioner. Of course, they are probably all sold out what with this heat wave. I may need to do as the animals do, which is to sleep directly on the floor. I had to wade through multiple cat piles this morning. The floor is much cooler.
Sadly, the heat has also made sleep impossible. I can feel the fatigue.
I am hoping to get a decent request from the children today. I am letting them choose dinner what with it being their last meal of summer break. I am offering them breakfast options as well. I know they will appreciate it.
Is it bad that due to how freaking hot it is, I am tempted to drive the boys to school in the morning simply so I don’t have to walk home in the heat?
