{ The heat, the hot hot heat }
smartass-Turns out, we can't entirely blame the manager. She set 76 as the temp during the cold blast we had, little did she know, they kept that as the year round temp.
Talking about heat, we're putting together a bat box (aka bat house) in hopes of decreasing the massive amount of mosquitoes in our library garden. Right now the garden doesn't amount to much, just the skeleton of what remained from last year, but inside the building we're starting (greehousing is more what it feels like) our seeds. This heat is doiong wonders for our squashes, pumpkins, sunflowers and various gourds. So far, the peppers are still lagging, as usual, but my hopes are high for our repurposed mini-space slipped betwixt the library and the next house.
At least I don't have to worry about my coffee going cold...

{ It's hot...so blasted hot... }
Sarcastic-
Holy crap...it's hot. I don't mean outside, where the weather is nice and balmy, and I'm really happy about that. No, I mean inside the library, a library which just had it's AC replaced a couple years ago. As of this exact time, it is 78 degrees in the building, and has been for a good 6 hours. This library system spends 40 million dollars a year, and yet it can't afford to get a decent HVAC system for the branches. This winter, we cheered when the temperature hit 70 degrees inside, and now we're up approaching 80...in March! Anyways, sorry to whine and moan, but it's sooooo hot...:-(
ADDENDUM: Smartass-
Hot like a fox. HVAC was replaced 2 years ago this sumemr. Reason for said heat:
Manager decided that 76-78 degrees F is appropriate temp for a building that's nearly all windows, welded shut windows...Labels: big sweaty mess, hot, really hot
