Just before waking dream of being at the daycare/ a daycare, two very large rooms, one for babies and the other- where I had my shift-- for toddlers. But I was early and spent my time holding a four or five month old baby. My sister was also working there and when I realized that, I thought I could have asked her to take my shift, but she'd left by then. Still, nice to be among kids again.
Hydro bill came in today, something ridiculous like $14 because I overpay in the warm months. I'd been expecting to be dinged a good $100 even with overpaying, but then reminded myself that June was cool-- and then reminded myself again that the last ten days of it were anything but-- that was when we had the heat dome-- and I'd certainly run the fans and AC a lot then. So I overpaid again because the nights are still not cool enough for just a window fan. July is a hot month, period.
Though when I woke this morning the room was, if not warm, at least not as cool as the 18C/ 65F I'd set the AC for. But that was because the curtain had fallen back across the unit as a result of my midnight thrashing about, I assume. Must anchor it better in future.
Otherwise I sit indoors and read Stone and Sky, very pleasantly, though whether it will stay pleasant with the North Sea oil shenanigans remains to be seen.

It's a corker. A very satisfying read.

I will admit to buying an ebook copy in addition to my dead tree one, because-- as ever-- all the white men's names mentioned in passing failed to register, and I needed something searchable when they cropped up again, even two pages later. And that included Peter's father.
