Might as well declare it summer

The temperature hit mid-90s today, and it feels humid even though the weather page says 6%. Sigh, the AC is on, and it's only going downhill/up mercury from here. After 2 cups of coffee for breakfast and half a Mountain Dew at lunch (I don't know why I wanted one today) I was parched, and inhaled a large Sonic lemon berry slush on the drive home.

For dinner, I made a turkey burger with avocado on wheat bread, with some steamed asparagus. I made more of the same to bring for lunch tomorrow. Susan is going to freak out at my bringing lunch two days in a row. Mmmm, healthy food. Cooking inevitably means clean-up, and I ended up doing nearly the whole kitchen: stove, sink, and floor. By the way, I hate cleaning the kitchen.

Went on a field trip to see the youth symphony perform today. My poor, inexperienced kids. Many of them were bored. A few liked it at least, and they were shocked that the orchestra members are high school aged. Maybe that will nudge a few towards music.

I'm still thirsty.

I bet summer is fun as a teacher. :D

Well, this summer won't be. Or will, who knows with the latest crappy news we got. We have to be packed and out of our classrooms by the day after school ends. Yeah, one day to pack, and I don't have a lot of stuff. We don't even know when it's going to be moved to our new sites, and when we can unpack. That, and we only have 6 weeks.

Junk drinks dehydrate you - water will help with being thirsty.
Your dinner sounds EXCELLENT! Why didn't you eat something healthy like that for breakfast and lunch?

Who says I didn't have a healthy lunch? I usually don't eat breakfast.

It totally sounded like you only had a Mt Dew - my bad!

Ahhh I get ya. No, I always eat lunch, usually school lunch - whatever the kids are having. I had a rare 2 days where I brought lunch this week.

Oooh - atta girl! I bet it was tastier and healthier than the school lunches, if those things are anything like what I used to eat!

I'm tired of the heat already. And it totally felt humid yesterday. It was quite actually overcast in the afternoon...maybe that's why, but I don't know why it would have only been 6%.
