42 degrees Fahrenheit is approximately 6 degrees Celsius, twinkle.
I am doing nothing, all day long. I can't focus my thoughts, or anything.

Are you insured against melting, Star? That is not fun, it is torture  .
Hope it turns out fine, though.

We had a ball! I brought my nephew, my niece, kassandra and erika with me. we had our picnic, fed the animals and the ducks, walked around and they played in the playgroud then we went to dairy queen for an ice cream. Of course now my niece is sleeping over for the night. i knew i'd end up with an extra kid tonight. Erika fell asleep early, she was all tuckered out.
Man was it hot out there today!! It's been hot like this for the past couple of weeks. we finally got a couple or air conditioners (powerful ones!  ) a few nights ago so it makes sleeping a reality now. I couldn't stand being sweaty all the time. YUKKY! It's nice to walk in from the hot into what feels like a freezer. LOL!
Our summers here are really hot and humid. it starts in spring and usually ends in october before it starts to cool down a bit. We usually don't get any snow until christmas, in fact, there's been a few years where we had green christmases. It's nice living in the south of ontario. Summer's are long and great!

Glad to hear that everything went great Star.
The Dutch climate is very mild. Most years we have snow, but that is only for a couple of days in most years, and that can vary from November to March. Our summers are reasonably warm, but seldomly we get temperatures above 30 degrees Celsius.
Hard to imagine, that in Canada, which we associate with cold winters, has such warm summers. Lesson learned.

I learned something new too about the dutch climate.
It's funny how most parts of the world, including the states, think that canadians live in igloos. A lot of people think we have winter all year round here which is so far from the truth. I grew up north of ontario (7 to 8 hours from here) and it's so much colder there and the winters are really long with tons of snow.
I still hate the winters. I hate snow. I like summers because everything is so pretty and green. in winter, everything looks so dead. that's what i really hate about it. it's depressing!
Our summers here are super humid. that's why they're so hot. it's hot and sticky weather. the temperature was 32 yesterday but felt like 42 it was so humid.
