It's insane, when we start normalising temps over 40 degrees! But that seems to be the trend with summers now. I wouldn't mind it so much, but its the lack of rain and the long stretch of hot days, that makes everything even hotter!<br /><br />On the plus side, we're on the waning daylight hours, of summer. Meaning there's less hours in the day, for the sun to be up. So it gets cooler, quicker. Last summer it was still hot after 5pm, because the heatwave coincided with the longest days of summer. Winter can't come quick enough though, lol. <br /><br />Stay cool, Chel. :)Chris https://www.blogger.com/profile/13715819899708384147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1556636739806282968.post-8817772856829748012018-02-12T09:12:17.439+10:002018-02-12T09:12:17.439+10:00Yep, it was inside in the aircon for me yesterday ...Yep, it was inside in the aircon for me yesterday for the bulk of the day, except when I ventured out to do the grocery shopping - thankfully Aldi has aircon too. I left my baking until later in the afternoon. Thankfully the small shower of rain we had (we missed the majority of the storm) cooled things down for the night. I think it will be early morning activities and inside over the bulk of the day for the next week. <br />The Japanese Meshwork looks lovely, sadly I'm not very crafty, so will just admire what you show us on your blog. <br />Cheers, LyndieLife After 50, Fitness and Leisurehttp://www.lifefitnessleisure.blogspot.com.aunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1556636739806282968.post-54289203986061496422018-02-11T22:49:38.914+10:002018-02-11T22:49:38.914+10:00Deb, I took the thermometer outside today before t...Deb, I took the thermometer outside today before the storm hit and it said 40C.

It was really pleasant in the cool of the early morning. We had a short storm here late yesterday evening which was lovely too. It will be a long, hot week. We are up in Coolum for a couple of these days so I think I'll be swimming in the ocean to stay cool. Lovely that you could enjoy the craft show in the cool this year.
