Creative Coolness
The heat wave this week has almost done our family in. No matter how we tried to cool our house down, by the late afternoon our inside house temperature was a sizzling 38 degrees!! The food in the pantry was melting, the chocolate chips are now a massive blob of chocolate, and our candles have a new warped shape to them!! Been tempted each night to sleep outside on the deck but ever since a coyote stopped by to say hi as we were eating lunch on the deck and one of my friend’s daughter got bitten on her front step by another coyote I think I’d rather sweat it out inside! But thanks to some creative thinking we now have our own cooling pool in our backyard. It’s perfect- I love simplicity!! Has become a nightly cooling off ritual combined with great conversations with my boys along with a Moscow mule to boot. Perfect way to beat the heat and have meaningful conversations. Who could ask for more? (Well……. maybe some AC and a Hawaiian beach to match the heat!!!)
