Trying to keep cool

This heat is awful. I cannot tolerate it one little bit. It's been 95+ for the whole week and humid to boot. Thank goodness for air conditioning, but there are times one has to be outside. A and M both have swimming lessons at the high school pool, then she has softball camp in the afternoons. In the brutal p.m. I'm grumpy, lethargic and unmotiviated. Hmmph! Man I hope it cools off soon.
I did make June's block for my coffee cup quilt. A little backwards, but now I'm all caught up. It looks crooked in the picture, but it's actually not.


I like how the striped fabric is a little unexpected...it kind of blends into the background but I like that every now and then. I like the summertime-ness of this block. A not-too-hot, pleasant summertime. Not that I know what that feels like.
Ok, you don't want to hear me whine anymore (I don't even want to hear it), so I'll go for now. Stay cool all!

    But hey--we will be whinning when it's 20 degrees and blowing and icy---I think we just like to "whine"--it's something "cheap" and something we can all do!!!!
