Pittsburgh, welcome to the hot & humid 90s!

Ever notice in the winter, people complain about how COLD it is and in the summer, they complain about how HOT and HUMID it is out??? Go figure.

Donna, I'm one of the "lucky" few that has to work in both kinds of weather! So I think a complaint is in order.

It's pretty sticky today. I didn't realize how humid it was until I got home. I hadn't turned on the AC and it's sticky in here. But it's late in the day now so I'm not going to bother. It's 89 right now.

Add Cleveland to the list!
Yikes it's warm and sticky outside!

I feel so bad for my Buddy, the heat takes such a toll on him.
He starts panting once temps creep past the mid 70's!
I think today would be a great day for a bath outside with the garden hose!
It will cool me off too!

We don't have central air, we only have a window unit that is huge and does a good job of keeping the house cool... however... being that it's still down the basement isn't going to do any of us good tonight while we're trying to sleep!

Sunday in sunny South Carolina, 101 degrees.

Even the cats came in from the cat pen to spend the day on the couch with Mom and the A/C.

At least I don't have to shovel it!

For the past couple of days, it's been humid and hot and NO wind. In goes window air conditioner in living room window.....then the damn humidity continues........and air conditioner number 2 goes in computer room window. I think I must be getting older...because the heat is not agreeing with me. I do believe this is the earliest date yet, for me to install the air conditioners. Global warming? Old age? Both?

I feel so sorry for the folks without any cooling equipment. Fans just don't cut it at 2AM when you cannot sleep.

I have been hitting the "smoothie" button on the blender quite often these past few days. Too bad I'm not drinking these days, as a little vodka in the mix might brighten my evenings somewhat. I am trying to take good care of my health right now....No pills, no drinking....exercise...no stress.... (no work either!)....... Just staying cool and drinking smoothies!

Fenway is having a hard time dealing with this heat wave. My a/c is in the back of the closet and for me to get it, a million things have to come out first. It's too hot for me to move all that stuff. It's supposed to end tomorrow night so I will try to deal with it one more day. But poor Fenway has been huffing & puffing. I feel bad for the little guy. I've been taking him to the pond so he can get a cool dip.

Still raining and flooding here in Indiana. The southern part of the
state has dams broken & flooded roads everywere. I can't complain
about the water in my basement when I see on the news about famillies
who have lost their house, their business, everything they owned.

The AC has never felt so good with the heat we've had. This is way
to early to need the AC every single day.
