#54 Don't Like Sweltering Heat

I'm not the only one complaining about this.  We've been getting cell phone heat alerts, as if we need to be told.  It's frustrating because I feel like being outdoors is one of the healthiest things I can do right now.

But then, I began to imagine if I had to spend chemo months in the winter. I'm not complaining anymore.  We have a lot of windows that bring in sunshine and good cloud views, when it's too hot to be out. (and entertaining tree trim views, too) With the a.c. doing its work, I can curl up like a cat in a beam of sun and let the light do its magic.  And in the early morning before the sun hits the yard, I go out and read or swim or pull weeds.  In the evening, there's usually a breeze and Don can sit outside and watch our crazy squirrel friend climb the palm trees. 

What if I didn't have air-conditioning? What if it were January and the days were short and gray?  Once again, I am feeling lucky.
