Today was an incredible day. We had a lot of heat during the last days, about between 35 and 38 degrees Celsius in the shade. This had to lead to a huge thunderstorm. It was announced for the night, but it came around midday. This basically meant, that within about half an hour about the amount of rain of the last month came rushing down. Had I taken shampoo and shower gel, I would have been able to take a proper shower as usually in my bathroom. The rain had that much pressure.

Well, our office building didn't like that very much. Apparently the basement garage filled up with water and pressed it into the ground floor. I've never seen that before, the ground floor was full of huge puddles. We were evacuated in an emergence and had to go home, since there seemed to be a problem with the electric system. The rain had lessend, but the local traffic didn't work any more, the tubes were full of water also, and about the entire fire brigade were on the road on emergency calls.
Und ich hatte unerwartet frei. Hab ich halt meine Wohnung geputzt. Und jetzt ist es viel, viel kühler (und angenehmer) als vor dem großen Regen, mein Garten ist verweht, aber immer noch wunderschön. Nach dem Rhododendron blüht jetzt der Rosenbusch. Ist zwar ein bisschen verlaust, ich hab schon gesprüht, aber wunderschön und hat ganz samtige, weiche Blüten. Ich traue mich gar nicht, sie anzufassen.

Jetzt sitze ich wieder unter Alpaka und kann häkeln, das ging die letzten Tage nicht, ich wäre verschmachtet! Zum Wochenende solls wieder kühl sein. Die Welt ist also wieder normal. Das gefällt mir.
Now again I am back under my alpaca blanket and will be able to go on crocheting that. I couldn't do that in the past days, I would have sweltered. It will be much colder towards the weekend. So the world's back to normal. I like that.
