Today is the summer solstice. So the official or astronomical first day of summer, although in my book the season truly starts with the month of June. Be that as it may, we're in a heatwave, with temperatures going up to 30 degrees today. And it is the longest day of the year. The horror, the horror. I don't like summertime, I don't like long days and I don't like heat. I know, I'm a strange beast, I'm weird, but I know I'm not alone. So yes, I am not really in a great mood today. If only it was a cool and rainy day, it would be bearable, but no. There is one thing, and truly one thing I like about the solstice: once it is over, it means that the days are going to get shorter and shorter. It's going to be long until we feel it, but it gives me some level of solace.

Yippeee... here it woke me with heat, thunder, lightning and heavy rain - so wonderful!!!!
Thanks for visiting my blog! Summertime is certainly not my favorite season either! I hate the heat. Give me a rainy, cool day anytime.
Hope you visit again!

That is a good temperature, nice and warm and not too hot, well for me anyway.
It's our shortest day today and the days are supposed to get colder, we wait and see.
