Oct 2021

Yes, it's finally cooling down a bit, from mid-to high-90s to mid- to high-80s.

Still waaaaaaay too hot for me. And near 100% humidity daily.

I miss the cool / cold, dry Canadian air that fall brings up north. It just seems wrong to have cool /cold super humid weather.

2008 was an awful Oct. In my family, too, except everyone who passed was nearly 90 to my fav uncle who was 97. Still sad, but not unnaturally young. 3 wakes & funerals in 4 weeks, all on Fridays with Saturday burials. All at the same funeral home, in the same room.

Out of town family kept joking "we have to stop meeting like this."

I'm usually on if you want to chat.
