There is another series about Eleanor of Aquitaine (not a mystery, I think) that I am interested in also.TracyKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08303342674824383688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7543676375857581295.post-4773894589296620542020-07-15T18:21:35.117-04:002020-07-15T18:21:35.117-04:00Margaret,

But I think the extreme heat and the oppressive humidity that rarely lets up is the cause of the violent storms. We are just not used to this type of weather. We've lived here 15 years, and I've never seen it so hot, and so early in the season, and without relief. I told Ken we need to get used to the "new normal." Haven't we had to do a great deal of that this year of 2020?<br />Judithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06435116453270981662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7543676375857581295.post-60916757537934215192020-07-15T18:16:43.026-04:002020-07-15T18:16:43.026-04:00Hi Cath,

Over and over again. <br />I have also been very fatigued at times, which, as I was just explaining to Tracy, has felt like lead weights on my shoulders. Ken insists it's the extreme heat (for us) and the oppressive humidity without let up that's affected me, though it's bothering him as well. We are just not used to weeks and weeks of this, and it is forecast for the Northeast to be much hotter than normal all summer, actually getting worse as the summer goes on.<br />I know I'm complaining, but I've been really challenged by all of this! Fortunately we are both healthy, so I give thanks for that.<br /> Judithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06435116453270981662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7543676375857581295.post-23643243166354799122020-07-15T18:08:42.621-04:002020-07-15T18:08:42.621-04:00Hi Tracy,

I have also been fighting a dragging fatigue, but it's likely, probably, that it's the unusual heat and humidity we've been having. The forecast is for even hotter weather in the weeks to come. It's not uncommon for us to get really hot for a few days, but it usually doesn't last. Not this summer! <br />Which Penman do you own? Mine should be arriving Thursday or Friday. Can't wait--I'm really in the mood.Judithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06435116453270981662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7543676375857581295.post-57332059272796073062020-07-15T15:17:19.953-04:002020-07-15T15:17:19.953-04:00I'm so glad to see you back here.
