This year it lasted a FULL WEEK and I am starting to think that we may need to invest in home A/C

That is TOO MUCH heatwave without AC. Just. Too much.

I'm incredibly grateful that we got heat pumps installed last year. Our townhouse is less horrible in heatwaves than other places we've lived, but the heat pumps have still made such a difference.

Happy Guardianversary!

the rock to push uphill feels bigger than it did before.

Ugh, such a brutal feeling. I hope you can find your feet and get out from under it. *hugs*
