First of all, sorry, I keep spazzing and double posting things.

Second of all. How is it where everyone else is? Is broiling here! I thought I was used to our summers, but this one seems awfully brutal. Is everyone else melting?

It's only 87 degrees, but it's so humid that it feels about 150. Other than a trip to the grocery store, I've been hibernating today.

Hibernating is a good idea. Lots of darkness and ice. Don't I sound cheerful? LOL.

LOL, yes, very cheerful! Ah well, you're in the right frame of mind for writing Punch's cousin, which I am very much enjoying. And it's nice to see you posting here again, Jos!

I'm planning on about 5-6 girls to be running through the sprinkler tomorrow.

or I sure wish I was! I think we hit triple digits for the first time today. It's been an amazingly temperate summer when I recall this time last year I think we were going on day 30 over 100 temps. I keep wondering if that Eyeffejellifino, the famous Volcano, is responsible for the lower temps we've had.

Nothing like going from 112° to 100° and noticing how much *cooler* it feels. *whew*! Hope not to see those days any time soon!

Funny how north of you in the same state, it's been in the triple digits for weeks. Just insufferable. I can't wait for fall (In Texas, that's the three days before winter).

Bertie has taken to wanting, "cool water." Meaning whenever I have a drink of bottled water, he wants it, too. With tail wagging, he waits for me to empty his water bowl and fill it with bottled water. But, no, he's not spoiled.

Never!

Here's my little furchild, Tao 'chilling'.



He's not spoiled either -- He hops right in the fridge, any chance he gets. He's even been known to hop in, without me noticing, until I hear him fully chilled--Of course, then he just wants to cuddle. Weird lil pootie.

OH and if I don't turn on the tap for him to get his water fresh? Items come tumbling off the bathroom counter until I DO.

It was nice today but it's a rare thing lately. We are going for one of the hottest summers on record in the NY area.

Concert. Outdoor. August. Texas.

What was I thinking?!

Did you end up going to the concert? It's brutal today. Which concert was it?

It was the Aerosmith show at whatever they call Starplex these days. We were able to sit in the shade and it actually wasn't bad out at all. A little sticky, but not painfully hot, amazingly enough. I think having lawn seats helped as opposed to all the people squished in sitting on plastic seats.

Hoooot August night
and when you'd almost bet
you can hear yourself sweat...

He walks in...

One of my favorite Neil Diamond songs.

I don't like doing anything in it. But I sit on my back porch with my reading and knitting and a big glass of iced tea. I just get too cold in the house with the a/c on. And my guys are running around the house in shorts and t's.

You wouldn't believe it - it's been below average temperature wise for 3 months now. Tons of hail. A thunderstorm almost every day. It snowed in April, May, June AND July. August has only just started. I would like to say that I am quite pissed off. I've never seen weather this bad here, or anywhere.

Enjoy the heat all of you.

Are you in western, or eastern Canadia? I had no idea there was weather going on like that! Cra-zee!

Western Canada...Alberta to be exact. Saskatchewan (funny word) and Alberta have been poured upon. And now...mosquitoes.
