TODAY is JULY 25th

Judy, Don't worry... we are getting enough summer for everyone. G
Not even getting monsoon storms, much. high pressure systems are
settling in too far south to get us moisture......but boy do we have
lots of heat. G
Extreme heat advisories are bad for quilting classes too........ news
reports are saying "stay indoors", so people aren't even driving to
the shops. sigh.

Why, oh why, does it seem so quick to have Christmas come up on us - when on
Dec. 25th, it seems like such a loooonnnnnnggggg time till summer - or even
spring for that matter!

What have the temps been Pati? No monsoons? That saves cleaning the mud
out of the pool every other day!

HEY! We finally hit 80* (that's enough!) Won't trade places with you for
anything G ... I just want our usual 75* AND sunshine! [hey - we spend
all winter shovelling snow to earn that!]

Shopping on a hot day? Most of the stores up here do have air-conditioning
(even if the houses don't) and that's always a good way to spend time during
a heat spell -- of course, I'd be broke by the time it cools down. Seems
like it's been a weird year weather-wise all around the country. Heat over
100* expected in Portland, Oregon!! Gotta call my relatives and see if
they're surviving.

Well, extreme heat advisories go out when temperatures are expected to
be 110° and above. Turns out that this is going to be the hottest, and
probably driest, July on record. Many nights we "cool" down to the
mid 90°s, and the average temp (highs plus lows divided by 2) is a bit
over 98°.
The heat island effect is really showing this year. and we really,
really need the rain. We are still getting the wind and dust
("haboobs"), just no rain. sigh.

I don't go out unless I have to. G

Oh dear. I remember what that's like. It's hard to find the energy and
inspiration to do much of anything...breathe, eat, talk......I sure hope it
passes soon. the fire danger is always a concern. Hang in there!!!!
