And by nastiness, I mean, hot, terrible, HOTNESS!!! (And not the good kind.)
It's been pretty tough to be stuck in the house so much, without our daily walks. Errands are possible, but not so enjoyable. And everything else just saps too. much. energy.
So here's hoping these dog days of summer pass soon!!! (Though realistically, we probably have at least 6-8 more weeks).
In the meantime, enjoy these flip-book style pics of two crazy, cabin-fevered gals creating their own entertainment ;)
P.S. Did you know that "dog days of summer" is a saying that dates all the way back to Ancient Greek times??? I sure didn't until I done learnt it tonight.
It had to do with this star, Sirius, that was the brightest in the constellation Canis Major (Large Dog). Supposedly, they thought Sirius was the cause of all the yucky, hot weather--and the crazy behavior that came along with it. And I gotta say...those Greeks might've been onto something!!!
(Now don't say I never taught ya nothin'!)
