Happy birthday, Jo and Harry!

Freshly arrived home from Lumos, it seems appropriate to wish a very happy birthday to both J. K. Rowling and her literary child, Harry Potter. Thanks for all of the joy and wisdom you have both given us over the years. *Raises a glass of butterbeer to you both*

Heat

It reached 103 degrees Fahrenheit today. Tomorrow it is anticipated to reach 102. We do not have central air, and although the window air conditioners have been laboring all evening, they are outmatched for the task. I have taken two cool down showers already tonight already but am already covered with sweat glistening again and am contemplating taking a third.

It was good to see the girls again, and they had a great time this weekend, going camping with my sisters. But they both became utterly unglued due to the heat tonight. Many tears, and up late past their bedtimes.

*sigh* They will be monsters in the morning.
