Random Nonsense and Other Things

I am sitting here in total amazement right now because 1. the sky is DARK and b. I can hear THUNDER which means WE MIGHT BE GETTING SOME RAIN!  And we need it!  The humidity is so thick and heavy out there that something simply HAS GOT to give!  Our walk this morning was just as bad as yesterday as far as the humidity goes.  It was so heavy I felt as though I was carrying an extra 30 lbs around with me!

Our air conditioning stopped working yesterday afternoon.  That was bad.  Real bad.  Because the hotter I get, the worse my mood gets.  I am the most unpleasant person on the face of the earth when I'm really, really hot. I get mad when my shirt gets sweaty and touches me and then my hair starts sticking to my face and neck and that only gets me madder.  Then, I start looking for people to provoke.  Which is why I spend most of the summer INSIDE away from people.  Luckily, Hubs' BFF is an a/c guy and he came over to check it out.  It was a simple/quick fix and I am still grateful!  The thing I love most during the summer is my a/c!  Dodged a bullet there!

Doodlebug and company have arrived safely in West Virginia for the All Good Music Festival.  Those pictures should be very interesting...I should have some to post next week.  She came by for a few things she needed last night.  We went through a check-list of items they might need and she had it all.  We gave her hugs and kisses and she went back to finish her packing.  Suddenly, from out of nowhere (or maybe from 'mom land') I realized that she had not gotten her tickets!  She and Gibbsterrific had me hang on to their tickets for safekeeping and DoodleBug left the house without them!  Luckily, Birdie was coming over this way for Trivia so she picked them up and took them downtown!  Whew!  Yet another bullet dodged!

Please, please if you haven't already, go visit Carol at Facing 50 with Humour and give her a congratulatory hughighfivepatontheback for having her VERY FIRST BOOK PUBLISHED!  This is so exciting not only for Carol but for all of us who have come to know and love her and her sense of humor!  CONGRATULATIONS CAROL!   








DoodleBug sent me an email with a link that some of you might be interested in.  Here's the email:

Hey Lady,

 

I'm pretty sure you said you were a livestrong member, which means you already got this link, but I thought I'd send it to you just in case;

http://www.livestrong.com/blog/blog/the-3-biggest-fitness-lies/?utm_source=email&utm_medium=newsletter&utm_campaign=110712

It's a really good article about eating/living healthier and though there are a few misspellings and grammatical errors, it's pretty inspiring! Thought about your bloggy thing and thought you might want to share it with your weight-loss group for some supportive reads!  

Love FOREVER,

squeebie

Hope it's nice and cool where you are.  If not, I hope you're sitting in front of an air conditioning vent or poolside!
