Good Morning Kids! Our heat index is going to be over 100 degrees today. I have no plans to run errands until this evening. But, I might be getting a bit of company this morning.

Only 9:30 here and this is current temp!! Think I'll stay put and just surf and post!! Don't even want to look to see what our high and feels like will be later. Ignorance is bliss as long as A/C is running 88 °F Partly sunny FEELS LIKE 96°

Well, it's official. Our heat index DID hit 100. No wonder I feel out of sorts. Hoping I don't get a migraine, since the temp moved up so quickly.

p.s. Hope the migraine missed your house

I have no idea how hot it was today. I stayed inside with my a/c on. And since I didn't take my meds to wake up, I slept. Very boring and I got nothing done. Please take care. ♡

I'm pushing water on myself, and feeling better. But, when it gets sticky-hot in a hurry, I usually end up with a migraine, or if not that, an upset stomach. Sure enough, my stomach is out of sorts, but I can manage that. Early Summer, anyone?

It's supposed to be another hot one today. So I am going to run one errand now. I will be driving to my sister's house later today to see the Toddler.

I know you'll be great with the Toddler. Good Morning Kids! I'm awake early. Doggone insomnia. In fact, I was awake before 5 am, and just decided to eventually get up & put gas in my car before DH left for work.

The parents are also here until Friday around lunch time. I am taking a load of packages to them. Took up my entire back seat. I will be happy to get those out of the house.
The Toddler and I will play our games. He does like it at Grandma's house because he has so much more room to play. Of course, now that he is 2+ and a confident walker that may not be to our advantage.
Kitties do not like getting their hairball medicine. They know it's coming but they don't run away. Not too bright.

He was so much fun! He's changed in the 6 weeks since I was there but he remembers his aunt--much to his grandma's dismay.

So do I and so did his parents. We were all laughing when Grandma left.
He came running over to me calling my name with his hands up.

It has been a very busy week but I should be back in hot water by the end of the day. I'm so looking forward to a very, very long hot shower. I babysat the two grandsons Wednesday evening. The youngest one kept trying to moo every time the cows in the field behind him would moo. He wasn't quite saying moo but he was making a sound that you knew was supposed to be moo. The oldest one spent the whole evening outside playing with his toy tractors in the dirt. That kid lives for playing outside in the dirt.

Hello my Friday peeps! Heat index was over 100 here -- of course I spent my lunch hour outside trimming bushes and hedges. Because, well, why not? I am tired now of course. Too tired to wash the floors but I will do that tomorrow.

Yesterday we made great progress on getting the pool functioning. Thank goodness for DSIL he figured out how to set up the new pump and filter plus how all the hoses connected. We made great strides in getting all the algae cleaned out. The previous owner(s) had left us some chemicals and we used some of those. Today I'm going to go pick up some more chemicals. It is supposed to be in the 90's by next weekend. Also on the agenda for today is to continue filling the pool and running the pump.

We went out for breakfast at the local Italian gourmet market. I wanted thin steaks for cheese steaks tonight. Also got a bottle of very expensive balsamic vinegar. Like almost $50 for less than four ounces. I love balsamic vinegar. I could drink it. But not this. This is for drizzling, not guzzling.

Happy Father's Day to any of the dads who pop in here. DH liked the chocolate cake I made for him.

Anyone else here dealing with the heat wave? It is nasty-hot here, and supposed to be even worse tomorrow. I'm very thankful for air conditioning. And yes, the Midwest can get temps higher than 100 degrees, even without the heat index, but it IS early for that.

We had some unusually warm temperatures last week. Think the temperature is supposed to be above normal later this week.

The shop makes a very nice breakfast. Just a few sandwiches and platters, but lots of coffee and pastry options.

And yes, the Midwest can get temps higher than 100 degrees, even without the heat index, but it IS early for that. I think we had a cold front come thru earlier. The weather reported was 96 but feels like 95 Don't know why but me thinks that was a typo and should have been 105!! I feel for folks that are dealing with extreme heat that aren't used to it. I just hunker down with a/c. Just hate running errands - go from a/c to hot ass asphalt to a/c car to hot ass asphalt to a/c store back to hot ass asphalt - well you get the picture but it wears these old bones out. I tend to run errands as early as stores open. And one of those errands was to get gas so that didn't improve my mood one bit. Ok my whine for the day/week

I hope to get my oil changed in the morning. I saw a coupon online for $59.95. If it costs much more than that, it will have to wait. I wish they were open, so I could call and verify. I'm not a morning person, AT ALL. So getting it done before I watch DGDs is going to be tough. To me, 3pm is early! 😖

Weather guru's are saying Tuesday we will hit 100 or a little higher. That's regular, not heat index temperature. Cooling stations are opening up daily. I'm also very thankful for AC.

Good Afternoon Kids! I'm drinking lots of water today, but I just don't feel good. Heat index is going to be flirting with 110, so DS & I did our errands very early this morning, and we plan to spend the rest of the day indoors. I'm not liking how the vegetable garden looks right now. We are watering & babying it, but as I've mentioned, it's very early here for this kind of heat. Time will tell if our garden will produce this year, or not.
