Today, we are living in a...

humidor
steam bath
sweat house
sauna
mist shower
Atlantic fog
dew-dripping garden

It is probably 95% humidity and about 25 degrees C outside, 7 AM in the morning (probably up to 32 at least later today) . Everything feels humid, skin is sticky, book pages bulge, painted surfaces are starting to drip... well, not really. But you get the idea I hope. I really, really don't like humid, hot weather. It is like an animal with hot, wet breath has gone around and licked everything in the house. Drool, everywhere! We need to keep the windows open too, otherwise we get no fresh air and breeze inside and it get's too hot. What about AC you say? Well, as long as we can we try to live without it, because it uses up lots of energy, money and sounds terrible. Plus I love to hear the birds sing and not be closed up in a room.

My favorite weather. Not.

Good weather for roofing though...

So you re-roofed this weekend just for good measure, right?

Yep, with all these water molecules around you can't be sure - so we spalled another shingle layer on!

spalled? I meant slapped!

I really hope so...

Spall: to break up or reduce by or as if by chipping with a hammer.
