It’s Getting Hot Out Here….

…..So make sure you’re staying hydrated. Lol, I bet some of you thought I was going to start singing Nelly’s song. It’ll probably wind up stuck in my head now, though. But anyway, stay hydrated regardless, but especially if it’s feeling like an oven out there. As for Maryland, our real feel is 100 degrees, and it’s going to be the same tomorrow. The owners of the local coffee shop rented portable air conditioners until the cafe’s a/c is fixed, and I think they’re working well. And thank God we have our a/c in at home.
Speaking of which, I’ve probably been at the coffee shop since a little after 10ish, and to be honest, I’m a little frustrated that it’s already the afternoon. I didn’t get to bed as early as I had hoped last night because I was looking for something, and then I had trouble getting my eyes to stay open this morning. *Sigh*
I have a writing order due in a few hours, but once I post this and shift my focus over to my work, it shouldn’t take long. We’ll play anything I do after that writing order by ear. It’s supposed to storm later this evening, so I doubt I’m going anywhere. I’m not even sure if I WANT to go anywhere. I don’t know or care; I’m just going to focus on my writing order, and I’ll worry about everything else later.
Alrighty, I need to shift my focus to my work. I’m still tired, but oh well. Hopefully, my Adderall kicks in soon. Admittedly, I do have a coffee that also needs to kick in. But I also have ice water, and that might help me feel more awake.
I hope everyone has a great day. Stay safe and take care, especially if the weather is doing too much right now.

I just read it was 95 degrees on the Jersey Shore
I hope it's not that hot for you

The real feel would kill me
I would need to be beside a fan and with the A/C on
I don't do well in buildings with A/C
It's a strange atmosphere to breathe properly

I've been trying to fix my sleep schedule, but my blind senior dog needs to go out at times, so I have to take her out. She has puppy pads for accidents, but refuses to pee in the house because that's not how she was trained.
Ghostwriting mostly; I write for clients and they put their names on it. But it's usually for things like HVAC, home living, shopping, etc., so nothing I'm attached to that I NEED my name on. I was published on FinanceBuzz last year, though, and I have my name on that.
