A several-day-long heatwave finally broke last night. ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
cattitude celebrated by going for a leisurely walk in the rain this morning; we spent several minutes watching a small flock of goldfinches eating chicory seeds next to the bikeway.
Despite the heat, I have done some gardening—though that includes going out for five minutes to harvest cherry tomatoes as gardening. The cucumbers are not in good shape; I need to go remove several sad yellow ones and probably some dead leaves, and I don't know whether I will get any more cukes this season. A cucumber I bought at the farmers' market on Wednesday was bitter and not very flavorful, so it may not just be my garden.
I got a moderate amount of proofreading done, including finishing that math book, despite the heat, but a lot of it involved sitting down, doing 2-4 pages, and then going back into the air conditioned bedroom to cool off.
We have just had an air conditioner installed in the living room, so I expect to be significantly more comfortable for the rest of the summer.
