Summertime thoughts

[Karen]

My summertime thoughts are NOT good ones in this weather. It was 96 and stinking humid again today, and no chance of daytime temps falling below 90 before next Monday. I sure hope it cools off some. Next Tuesday night we are going to the Jeff Dunham show live at the DE State Fair, and it's in an outdoor pavilion. It should be somewhat cooler by the time the show starts tho - just hoping the humidity is down and it isn't too buggy. We went when he was there a few years ago, and the weather was very cooperative. Hoping for a repeat!

I just checked weather.com for you - they say you'll get relief by this Sunday! How's Mindi old gal in this weather?

She's doing okay since we both stay in the house and go outside only when necessary and for the shortest time possible. It's going to be even hotter today, with temps forecast to be 98 - which means it will be even hotter - and humidity and air quality in the dangerous zone. The heat index will be at the "cooking" level too. BLAH!!!! - bring on frost and leaves changing color and a chill in the air and sweatshirts!

We've had a week straight of hot humid weather so I've been mostly cooped up with the a/c. The appts are the only thing that I go out for and I'm glad the buildings and offices all have air. They said we set a record, the temps were up to 40C Tuesday, this is a first for us, it felt like 44C. We had rain last night but it didn't cool things off, still in the high 20's and climbing today, it's just so muggy. I love summer but this is a bit much--- Spring and Fall are my best seasons. Right now they're predictng a high of 38 today, with the humidity it won't be comfortable for sure.

It's not quite 11 a.m. and the temp is already 91 with the heat index of 102. We're sizzlin' today, for sure!

One thing that I do not think I will get over is the animal/insect population that comes out in the hot weather.

We live one street away from the park and there is TONS of chirping, warbling and FIREFLYS!!!!!

I have learned that squirrels also have a 'vocabulary' or at least a way to communicate with other squirrels.....I would hear a chirping noise and could not figure it out until I saw a squirrel on the fence, squawking away!

Good stuff!
