Heat Wave

We are currently going through a terrible heat wave.  We have been in the 90 degree weather for the past five days.  People are dropping like flies from heat exhaustion.

Hydration is the best thing a person can do in times of a heat wave.  People should drink water like a fish.  Also taking as many cool baths can be beneficial.  In the inner cities, the fire departments often will turn on the hydrants for people to cool off in the streets.  This is a generous thing to do for the community.  I wish I could see that done here.

New Diet Plan

Over the years I have been on many diets, some have worked and some have not worked at all. I have started doing a lot more research on diet plans and getting reviews on them. I found a great site with diet reviews and a whole lot of very useful information on it, The Apidexin review site has all of the diet plans I have ever seen reviewed on it and what I really like they give you the pluses and the minuses of each diet plan.

I know that I can find a diet plan that will work for me over the long haul, not just a plan that helps you lose weight, then you gain it right back in just a few months. It is time to hit the beach and I want to be ready in my yellow polka dot bikini and I will need some help from a working diet plan to make this deal work.

This web site has so much very useful information I think that anyone who wants to lose some weight, safely and properly should use the web site for the Apidexin review, to find their perfect diet plan, just like I have this summer.

I Love This Band

Alabama is an older country band that I grew up with. This song reminds me of the days of summer long ago, when I had very little responsibility other then going to school. I think about summer fun and lots of BBQ’s and bonfires. I like to play these for my kids to hear and love as well as the music from today.

Swim Suit Blues

It seems that every year I do battle and a losing battle at that, against weight gain. I know that since I turned 30 it has been an uphill struggle and now that the swim suit season is here it has just become a all out war.

I have dedicated myself to losing weight and fitting into the same swim suit that I wore last year, lets hope that this is a battle that I win this year. The swim suit I wore last year is stunning and I want to be able to fit in it again, soon.

No A/C

Now that it has gotten real hot and humid, the air conditioning on my Tahoe has decided to go out. I am not sure how much it will cost to get fixed but I have to get it in the shop to find out.

None of our vehicles right now has working air conditioning and that is a bad deal all the way around. It was 95 degrees today and they say that it is going to be even hotter tomorrow, I have to get the air conditioning fixed in one of our vehicles soon.

Each summer we hear stories about people leaving their kids or their pets in their cars during the extreme heat. It breaks my heart. I don’t understand why anyone would think that this would be acceptable. I think that those who are found guilty of this type of behavior should be punished in the same manner as the victim was treated.

Tomorrows the big day

Well the kids go back to school tomorrow and the house is going to be very quiet during the day. On one hand I am looking forward to the peace and quiet during the day, but I am sorry that summer is over.

The back to school grind is going to be a little hard at first. The kids won’t want to get up after the first day and it will be a struggle, but they will get over it soon enough.

Summer Dreaming

This frosty weather has me day dreaming about next Spring and Summer. I like to picture creating new flower beds in my mind. It takes my mind off winter dreariness. I think I will make some new raised planters at the edge of my property line. I want a lot of rose bushes. I have been looking at my neighbor’s roses and they are so lovely. These long dark days will thankfully be replaced by long summer days where it stays light until 9pm.

I moved this year and have a new yard. I have thought about buying a hot tub or an above ground pool. I am researching how much maintenance is involved in either or both. I love the thought of a hot tub in cool weather. It would be soothing for my old bones to slip into a nice hot tub at the end of my work day. An above ground pool would be wonderful as well, but in a different way. I guess in my mind, a pool is daytime fun, while a hot tub is for evening relaxation.

My research has included learning about chemicals required, and how sturdy a pool liner is. I would prefer whichever I purchase last years, I wouldn’t want to replace it anytime soon.
