Sick juliet hybrid? Pics included

My Juliet tomato plant isn't looking great to me. It's growing, and has a bunch of lovely green tomatoes on it, but the leaves seem to be getting smaller and smaller. The ones on the bottom are MUCh bigger than the ones higher up. Also they're all curled up or at least some are. I don't know what the problem is. All of my other tomato plants seem to be doing great as far as I can tell, even the others in containers (some are in pots and some in the ground), although this is the only Juliet one. At first I thought it was too hot. It was right against the house in a very sunny location. We've had temps of 30+. I thought maybe being so close to the house it was cooking. I have moved it to a less sunny location on my deck. I will move it back though if it isn't the sun causing this trouble as I don't think my deck gets quite enough direct sunlight.

here are the pics:

Just for clarification: "we've had temps of 30+"...this is Celsius, yes?

North Americans who don't speak "Celsius": these would be temps in the low to mid-80s.
