Today has been the hottest day of the current heat advisory.The local theatre moved their play indoors with some alterations to keep actors and audience safe in the heat. It looks like there will be some cooler days with rain possible. We need both -- a good soaking rain would help plants and reduce fire risk.
I found myself avoiding some tasks due to the heat and others that might increase anxiety. Avoidance can help to reduce anxiety levels, but the situation still lurks and will leap in front of you and shout in your face when you least expect it -- just when you feel calmer for a few minutes. So overall, avoidance doesn't help for long <sigh> Sometimes it feels like hiding or escaping, though that small moment of calm isn't really fooling anyone -- least of all yourself. I chose a song that acknowledges this fact <smile>. Keep safe. Enjoy!
Running Away -- Bob Marley
