And I'm keeping up on the water dispensers that are on the porch. I might try putting the box fan out on the porch but I am a little worried it might scare them. At least they have LOTS of shade and foliage to use as an escape from the heat.

The indoor kidcats are pretty accustomed to fans but I'll turn on the AC so that we can all be comfortable. I just refilled their 'ever flowing' water dispenser.

Hopefully I can doze off for a while, since I only got about 3 hours of sleep.

Thunderstorms are often followed by some cooler relief and a break in the humidity. Martin68 Jun 2024 #15
