    It's 83 right now. It's been in the upper 70s - upper 80s for the past several weeks.

    I couldn't stand 105 degrees. I would die.

    Around 102 here. To stinking hot for man or beast! I've been taking the dogs down to the ball field when the sprinklers are running, that's the only way we can stand to be out in this heat. My husband and son both work out in the heat all day, I honestly dont know how they do it. I feel sorry for them, I would die.

    Thank you Kay for the beautiful sig!

    While I am also in Cali, but yes the weather is horrid. My parents own a dry cleaners in Sacramento, so it's worse in there. If it's 105 outside it can be 110 115 inside the cleaners. And you can't have AC in a cleaners, they only have swamp coolers....something about the moisture with an AC, not really sure.
    I almost feel like shaving Zoee, but I just can't do it. I so wish we had a pool in summers like this.
    I can't wait to get to Tahoe next month, even if I have to see the burned hillsides.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    You all don't know what 'hot' is until you live though a summer here in Phoenix AZ!!


    Yesterday, 07-04-07 we broke a record with it being 115.

    We have gone 13 days now with the tempature of 110 or more with no relief in sight!

    I can't tell you the last time it rained, maybe back in January or February - the fire danger is waaay high.

    So lets not talk about being hot!! LOL

    I saw on the news that Phoenix was going to be around 115 today. Is that true? I could not handle that heat, how do you do it?

    *edit to add*

    How do people that have to work outside handle it? I would think temps that high would make a person sick. I honestly cant imagine. LOL.

    My daughter has a friend visiting from Phoenix, she is going back today. I said so you must be use to the heat and she said "you never get use to it", I don't know how you do it in Arizona.
    don't breed or buy while shelter dogs die....

    I have been frosted!

    Thanks Kfamr for the signature!

    Well... she is kinda right, but think of it this way, when it is the middle of winter, so cold you can't move what do you do? You stay in the house & warm up, right? Well we do the same thing, we stay indoors and stand in front of the a/c!!

    Hey, it may be 115, but you don't have to shovel it!!!!!

    We just reverse our lives, we live outdoors in the winter, and stay inside in the summer.

    As for people who work outdoors, they probably start around 5:30 - 6:00 am and then quit by 1-2:00pm, and they are use to the heat believe it or not!

    I would not trade this life for anything! I love the hot weather - and so does my arthritis!!!

    I agree! I'm in AZ too and it is so dang hot - I can't even bring myself to get in the swimming pool.

    Goodbye, Oreo. Gone too soon. 4/2003 - 9/12/2011.
    Farewell & Godspeed, sweet Jadie Francine. You took a piece of my heart with you. 11/2002 - 8/8/2016

    I don't even go outside since i'm in Mesa, AZ. we just stay home and just cool off. Though i don't own a pool i don't know how that would be like. Trying to get into the pool while it's too hot.
