Sitting
Melting
Thinking little
The shade is like an oven’s middle
My skin is like a sticky tape
My body merely wants to drape
To lounge
To spread
To stretch some more
To find a cold spot on the floor
Mustn’t moan though, it must be said
I’ll soon be flaking on my bed
It’s just a tad warm at the moment, and I can’t be bothered trudging over to my computer to write a proper post, so I just waffled away with this bit of nonsense through the WordPress App. Apologies, but you’ll have to imagine your own image too. I shall now return to my stretchy flaky draping!
The joys of weather extremes…Under a tree in the shade next to running water sounds like a place to be… VK

That sounds perfect, VK. I’m there in my mind’s eye, and feeling cooler already! 😎

I think the heat’s affecting your emojis as well, Elaine… all I can see in the app is 4 squares and that sweltering face. I’ve still not moved from earlier on… I’m still draping…

I totally relate–it’s toasty here, so I had to do the vacuuming as soon as I woke up, lest I sweat through it in the afternoon 🙂 Do you have some gel cold packs to put in your freezer? I rely on them a lot, plus my industrial fan!

I have three normal fans, but they work well when I use them. Otherwise I merely flop and drape… that seems to work too! 🙂

I can sympathize Tom. We are in the mid 90’s but with the heat index
(who’s that – heat index?) anyway I digress, it feels like 105. Brutal and sticky 😓

Heat index is a new one on me too, Isadora. It’s like when they say it’s minus two, but with the wind-chill factor it feels like minus fifteen. To me, it’s minus fifteen, and that’s that!
I use minus figures to attempt to cool things down a little! 😎 🙂

“Stretchy flaky draping…” Yup! Sums the current situation up perfectly! Melting works wonderfully too! I am impressed by your determination to keep on blogging despite these conditions, I’m managing one or two lines of editing per night before the laptop 💻 kicks off enough heat to justify…stretching and flaking and not very much else!

You may be impressed by my determination to keep on blogging, Icewolf, but that determination doesn’t seem to be followed through on… at least not as regularly as I would hope. It seems blogging here, for the next few weeks at least, may be a tad more intermittent. My phrase of ‘as and when’ seems to be flashing in neon letters very brightly right now! 🙂
