Snail's Pace
How is everyone out there dealing with this heat? As I am in the midwest, I realize it isn't as hot and muggy as it is on the east coast, but even so, it is hot enough to suck most of my energy away ~ I feel like I am moving at a snail's pace! If only there was an ocean nearby! Hot and humid makes me lethargic ~ wouldn't it be nice to just be able to languish in a spiderweb hammock until a cool breeze came along?!
Lovely watercolors shown were painted by Victorian artist, Amelia Jane Murray Lady Oswald (1800-1896) ~ you can read more about her here and see some more of her work here and here.

Hi Julie! Lurker Nancy here. I'm in Upstate NY, and it's been hot here for almost 3 weeks. I hate the heat, and my sewing studio is in the hottest part of our studio building, so I'm not sewing much this summer; I'm going at a snail's pace as well. Work is air-conditioned (whew!), but home is not. An ice pack on the back of the neck while sitting in front of a fan helps! And lots of lemonade and limeade. When I get to feeling most wretched, I remember that our great-great grandmothers survived such heat while wearing corsets and layer upon layer of clothing! It has to get cooler soon...
