OTD

Those in the southern clime may not understand our Minnesota fixation with the weather. TV stations devote more time to it here. Hope springs eternal that we will catch a warmer, sunny winter day or a cooler, dryer summer day. You probably have weather with less variables.

We are coming off a few extremely humid, hot days. Oppressive heat. Yesterday afternoon the humidity went east to annoy Wisconsinites etc. Even the high 80's felt pretty good. Today we will continue to catch a break. This morning Jon "opened the house" to enjoy the summer morning. As I sat to catch up on my email I noted my local weather predictions on my computer homepage. See, it is a fixation. The humidity is going to climb to miserable readings tomorrow. I told my husband, "The humidity is going back to 76%". He paused, then asked, "Today?" (another pause before I answered) I answered, "No, tomorrow". This is when it gets scary. "I know the answer," I said, "but what was the question?" Thank God he knew. With the pause in the conversation I had forgotten what I was talking about. Give that guy two Klondike bars. Give Jane an Aricept.
