Temps nearing 100 degrees today

It just doesn't cool down. This morning, at 5:30, the temps were already in the 80's. The weather is supposed to break over the weekend. It's none to soon for me. I woke up this morning feeling a bit sick, so I put errands on hold until tomorrow. In this heat you have to do errands first thing in the morning before things get too steamy - so even though I'm feeling a bit better now it's way too hot to be outside. Even Gertie can't take it - she's peeing and pooping faster than she ever has! And don't take your animals out in the car in this heat - even if you have air conditioning - it's just too hot. This noon's news had several stories of people who took their dogs with them only to have them die in the car while they ran into a store "for just a minute." That's all it takes to have the inside of your car to become an oven. Even if you roll down the windows - the car is still too hot to leave your animals in it!

Was sad to hear that Farah Fawcet lost her battle with cancer. She was an icon of the 70's and for those of us who became teenagers during that time remember her well as one of Charlie's Angels.
