back from utah

just a quick vent
I need a vacation after all of this.
The weather is so hot that it’s nigh-on-impossible to get anything done around the house. Aside from mom’s bedroom, the whole place is very, very warm. Even the little swamp coolers are proving somewhat useless to combat the heat. It’s supposed to break tomorrow Monday, [...]
