My room is on the 2nd floor and faces west. There are no trees or anything to give shade. It's blinding bright and hot in the afternoon. It's painful on my eyes and my entire body. I have been using the light to make photos. Nobody likes them but I do get a break from my insanity when I'm making them. It's short lived. The only people with nice yards and shady trees around here are the homeowners. I don't know how I'm going to get out of here. I have to get somewhere that's cooler with way less people and lots of trees.
