I read about your sock disaster, and thank you for your lovely comment on mine - don't worry, you'll get it. My very first pair were a complete and total disaster, and are still in a bag somewhere in a time out. The first was too huge and the second (which you would've thought I'd noticed sooner......) was almost to the toe when I realized it was miles smaller than the first.... Onwards! We learn from our mistakes :-)Carolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13128106166012206494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3530385219049793292.post-78925037945202317562017-02-13T22:32:14.671+10:002017-02-13T22:32:14.671+10:00Selina, I couldn't believe how hot it was yest...Selina, I couldn't believe how hot it was yesterday. Apparently it was nearly 41C here but I am sure it was hotter. Our old house was so hot it was unbearable and there was no point going outside as it was just as hot out there and no breeze to be had either. Today it was supposed to be 34C but was 37C but I can feel the cool change now so am very grateful.

We had four hot days hovering between 39 and 43 degrees, and on the fourth day our old home with thick stone walls started to heat up, so I turned on the aircon for the first time this summer. Here in SA we're all used to the heat and most homes have aircon, but I can't believe how bravely all of my Queensland friends coped with your incredible heat wave without air conditioning. Hats off to you all. :)Jembella Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07646075804716647311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3530385219049793292.post-54357829959466872082017-02-13T11:26:23.256+10:002017-02-13T11:26:23.256+10:00Certainly has been hot, being close to the coast w...Certainly has been hot, being close to the coast we do not get to those temps, but way above average at 36C.

I never took the thermometer out into direct sunlight, might've been too scary to see what it reached there;/ I can't wait for Tuesday when a cooler day is forecast. Lucky those roos had a sprinkler to play under too. I filled our birdbaths early morning and the birds stopped by for drinks during the day.

We are having 40 degree temps too, but ours is in farenheit, not celcius, so it's on the other side of the temperatures. Too bad we couldn't get our two temps to meet somewhere in the middle!claudiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16572555442321120647noreply@blogger.com
