This heat is getting to me, guys. It’s August — August in Phoenix — where I could be sitting in an ice bath and still be sweating. I am, in fact, sitting in an ice bath and sweating. I’m not really. I’m sitting in a chair. But an ice bath sounds nice. Did you know it gets so stupidly hot here that only hot water comes out of our faucets? I have friends who literally put ice cubes in the tub when they bathe their babies. At least some of us are getting ice baths, I guess.
Also, everything in my backyard is dying because A) it’s stupid hot and B) I haven’t been watering it. I know, I know, it seems like there is an obvious solution to part B, but here’s the thing. My watering system only has two settings: ‘don’t work’ and ‘flood the whole damn neighborhood,’ so basically I just close my eyes when I go outside and that seems to be working for now.
Here’s a backyard that you won’t want to turn a blind eye to. Molly at Almost Makes Perfect. transformed this weed-filled space into a backyard oasis, and this is just a tiny glimpse of it! Head over there to take in every detail and creepily pretend that its your own backyard like I am.
