I've got some yoga videos I can do. If I wait until it's dark out, then I won't feel like I should be outside. I can sit outside and read while it's light out. (My plan today was to order lunch from a place down the street, then walk over there to pick it up, because I'm not even getting the usual exercise I get from walking around campus, but then it started pouring rain right when I was about to go, so I drove two blocks to pick up lunch.) Tomorrow, I will walk to the doctor's office to pick up a prescription, and then to the library to get a library card (because I keep meaning to do that and not doing it), so that will be something.

When I was a kid, my mother was pretty insistent that, if it was nice weather and daylight, then kids should be outside. I frequently climbed a tree and read there. It feels wrong to be inside if there's not, like, a hurricane or over 100 degrees or something.

Our kids run around outside too. My 6 yo nephew was here visiting and playing in the playground and swimming like it wasn't in the 90s. Me, not so much.

I was just outside reading, and one of my neighbors came back from a run.

It's too fracking hot to be outside.

NOPE. I won't even walk in this weather, unless it's first thing in the morning. Though I am kind of a delicate flower.

Anybody know about plants? I want to move some liriope and a couple shrubs, and I'm concerned this is the wrong time to do it.

You should be okay w/ the liriope. That stuff is all but unkillable. What kind of shrubs are you moving?

No idea what they are. The leaves are green with pale whitish edges. Supposed to grow into a medium height round-ish bush thing. I planted them five years ago and they didn't grow, so I'm moving them to a spot with more sun.

I'd say go for it, then. Just be sure to give them plenty of water over the next couple of weeks.
