Yep. Sweaty, underslept and somewhat aghast at just how dry everything is in the garden, in spite of watering. I want a week of cool cloudy weather with frequent rain. The eucalypts on my nature strip though, they're putting out a lot of tiny new leaves and shedding scads of bark so maybe they know something we don't. The garden ants too are building lots of air holes which they usually only do if the weather is wet. I think we're going to get a change in the weather pretty soon. Can't wait.
I hope you're right. My body isn't reacting very well to this.

Apparently tomorrow is bringing rain with chance of thunderstorms so I hope it hits us in the inner city!
