One Less Trigger

Reasonable. That's the best descriptor I can think of for this summer. Considering the St Louis area is normally really hot and humid all summer long, this year's lengthy stretches of temps in the 70s and 80s with low humidity have been wonderful. We've still had plenty of ugly traditional summer days but we've also had plenty of really nice days. It's almost like a Minnesota summer.

These reasonable summer temps translate into one less thing that triggers my migraines. Instead of the daily suffocation by the thickness of the air, I've had entire weeks of dog walking and errand running free from this particular trigger. Woo-hoo!

I know this is an anomaly and will likely not happen again for a very long time so I'm being careful to truly appreciate every reasonable day that comes along. With a little luck, this winter will also be reasonable. I don't mean to push my luck but to say I'm not hoping would be a lie.
