THROUGH MY WINDOWS

CONUNDRUMS Gosh! It is sizzling here right now! I have hardly been outside all week. The heat index is over a hundred degrees Fahrenheit every day. I don't do well healthwise in such intense heat so I am content  to occupy myself with inside projects. (I realize that is an understatement, who DOES do well in 100 degrees temps??)
