Still not freezing

[wiseheart]

Especially as I had to go out in the midday heat.

First, I delivered the baby book to my friend Ilonka, who was very happy with it.

Then we had a little get-together at one of our retired collegaues, complete with cooking over a (very small) campfire. Unfortunately, quite a few couldn't come for various reasons (all very understandable), so the atmosphere wasn't what it usually is like. Ah, well, there is always a next time.

At the very end, when I was about to leave, there was a downpour of rain - for exactly as long as it took me to get from Elise's house to the tram station. So I wasn't only hot, I also got wet, despite the umbrella I was careful enough to take with me. Gah.

When I got home, we ate ice cream and cheesy buns for lunch - neither of us has much of an appetite for a cooked meal in this heat. Then I dropped onto the bed and slept like a log for more than an hour. I'm feeling moderately alive now. *g*

I took with me Evie's felt songbook but couldn't deliver it, as she was one of those who couldn't come. So I entrusted it to Erica who'll meet her tomorrow at school. Problem solved. :)

It was so warm ahd muggy here as well today. We walked to a restaurant for dinner ... ugh. Not a good day!
I don't want to go to the office tomorrow ... at least working from home I don't have to be dressed professionally.

Small blessings are blessings, too.

A cook-out sounds fun. It has dragged itself up to twenty degrees here this morning. Woot!

TBH I'm not friend of garden parties. I always come home covered in gnat bites.

Meeting up with old colleagues is fun, isn´t it?

Usually, it is. Not this time, though. The still active ones were all worn out and run down, and the old hags like me were dying from the heat, so...
