From Weather Underground, the forecast for today:

Sunny in the morning then becoming mostly sunny. Highs in the 90s to 105. Light winds…becoming northwest 5 to 15 mph in the afternoon.

On Tuesday we were notified that in two weeks our entire townhome community will be re-roofed. We’ve been told it will take “about” six to eight weeks to do this job. If they begin on the stated date, July 16, this means it might be September 16 before they’re done. Life’s soundtrack will be hammers and feet banging on the roofs. Nails will be everywhere. Lovely.

During the time they are working on the roofs, we’ve been told we will need to close all the windows in our home and not just the skylight (which provides a vital chimney effect venting hot air). With temperatures on the rise, methinks it will be rather oppressive. We have no air conditioning. Windows and fans are critical. We can open them after 5 p.m., and for this I’m thankful. I’ll just need to find places to hang out during the day (hurray for libraries), though I can’t bring my food or sleep on their chairs.

Sometime in this time frame (I hope after week 37) I’ll be going into labor. My goal is to labor at home as long as I can; I’d rather not go in and then be sent home again.

Oh, I rather dread this. I’m trying to accept it and not focus on something that’s not yet reality, but y’know, I’m not entirely rational these days.
