sizzling

Lovely word that!
Well June is sizzling, hot, humid and busting out all over!
Garden is in high gear as are the weeds.
Amazing what a little rain and sun can do to goose things.

In my younger days, I could not get enough hot.  Now I am a wee bit smarter.
"Only mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun."
Dogs and I spend these sweltering (another fine descriptive!) days doing not much.
At dawn I take my coffee, head out to weed and water, then walk the dogs,
Followed by not doing much that requires energy.
I have had to learn this.  
The dogs knew this.  
We should learn from the dogs.
