It was only supposed to reach the upper 90's today and at 4pm it's already 102. I've come to the conclusion that if I had to pick between living in a hot climate most of the year or a cold climate, I would definitely prefer the cold. Of course I don't have the choice so I should quit whining. The swamp cooler definitely doesn't cool anything when it gets this hot.
I went out early this moring and stopped by the dentist office to pay the last of my bill. As I've mentioned before, there went my travel fund for this year. But I needed the dental work and definitely think I'm a lot healthier for having it done.
Now I need to go to Target, but will wait for the temp to start dropping a bit; according to a current newscast, the Delta breeze just hit our area so we should be cooling off soon. Maybe I'll go after dinner so I won't run into all the rush hour traffic. About an hour ago I ate pretty much ice cream trying to cool off, so my dinner will likely be delayed.
There is really no news when all you can do is try to keep from melting, so I'll make this post a shorter one than usual. Keep cool, y'all!

- The Heat Is Killing Me!
Even though it's a good 10 degrees cooler than earlier in the week, it is still in the mid to upper 90's, and I'm just sweltering! According to the weather reports, the overnight temps will consistently go down over the next few...
- Will Gypsy Cook Dinner Tonight?
I got a lot of walking in this morning - went to Costco as well as Bel Air grocery. I always park in the very back of the lot as that is where I can usually find a shady spot, and most of the time there aren't a lot of other cars crowding me. ...
- Staying Cool
It is even hotter today and I had to turn on the cooler earlier in the day. The wonderful "Delta Breeze" is not coming up the delta due to weather patterns out in the Pacific, so the nights aren't as cool and the day gets warm pretty quick. ...
- I Definitely Overdid It Today
I washed three large loads in my washer and carried them one by one across the street to hang them out on the line. Wet clothes are heavier than dry, and wet towels are much heavier than dry. I had a full load of towels that I've put off...
