It’s very hot and heat makes me sluggish and lazy. So I’m not as far as I wish I was with “The Enchanted April”. I’m on page 100 from 263 and it’s been exactly a week since I got it.
But when I wake and my thermometer says 25 degrees at 7am I tend to be less energetic than usual. Anyway I wanted to share how I spent my early morning on the “cool” balcony.

I hear you on it being too hot to read. Imagine having to write essays in this weather

So warm, so warm! Isn’t reading the ideal thing to do? What do you do instead?
Do you enjoy the book?

Iris, no I don’t want to imagine,
.
Judith, instead I nap, lol.
The book is great though. I totally enjoy reading it.
I guess you will just have to wake up very early to read before it gets hot! hehehehe
I feel so bad for you…37 degrees and no air conditioning in your house (or was that Leeswammes..that may have been her). We so far have had a mild summer–only 34 today for us. Last summer was awful. We had 60 days of 38-40 degree weather (and I have A/C in my house) so I definitely feel for you. I take cool showers to keep my hair wet (and i put it up in a ponytail) and drink lots of ice water in the summers. You could always put ice in a bag and put it on your feet or head–it sounds stupid, but I do it in the summer here sometimes!
Don’t worry about the book. I said 1-2 weeks so you have until Saturday, July 17 (and really until the 19th since I’m assuming mail doesn’t run on Sundays). I am mailing my book out on Monday or Tuesday so it will be good to have the books sent some days apart anyway for posting purposes.

CArin, it WAS lesswammes who said they haven’t got A/C, but we haven’t either. It’s not so very common over here, our temeperatures are usually much lower. I’ll keep your advice in mind…
