D and I are just a pair of old stick-in-the-muds. We aren't going anywhere or doing anything exciting this summer. Once the weather changes in the fall we'll get out more, but for the time being it's work and an air-conditioned house.
However; somebody out there has to be doing something fun and exciting. We can't ALL have become old and boring, can we?
So, how about it? What have you been up to? Are you heading somewhere soon? Those of us hiding from the heat want to hear all about it.

Sadly I'm not up to much this summer either. This is all very sad indeed !!!
So far our summer has been less than impressive, hopefully it will pickup and we can all get out and enjoy it.
Air conditioning is not something that we need in abundance around these parts, more like a good woollie top.
But it is nice today so woohoo :-)

I'm sorry you're dealing with a chilly summer. I would send you some of our heat, if I could. Yesterday I couldn't tell what the temperature was because my outdoor thermometer doesn't go that high. The needle was pegged well over the 120F mark (120F = 48.88C). Maybe my question should have asked if anyone is experiencing "normal" temperatures for where they live.

Holy Cow ! Now that's hot, I see what you mean about hiding in the house with the air con. You could hardly go out and do a spot of gardening or whatever in that
heat, you would melt!!
Meanwhile it's nice now but was un-seasonally cold and not all that sunny, and lot's of rain. Even Mr President Obama got a little wet while here, it was nice for the Queens visit. Not sure if we can read anything into that!

I really can't deal with heat. Our summers are not what you call hot, but I hate it. 48C! I'd be in the freezer all day. Does the temperature go as low at night as it goes high in the day?
Our plans for the summer are a bit on hold as the father-in-law is in hospital probably longish term with MRSA picked up on his last visit after a fall and an impacted bowel caused by the drugs to combat the MRSA....so far.
We want to go camping with the bairn, but we're just having to take each day/week as it comes.

That MRSA is one nasty bug, hope he gets over it soon. It just goes to show that last place you want to be if your sick is a hospital!

So far this summer I have been to busy helping out where I can around town to do much of anything, but I think all that is coming to an end. This last weekend helped a friend move into his new place, this coming up weekend we are going to go threw the rest of there stuff they savaged and get it cleaned up and moved in. I have a class reunion thing coming up on the 16th of July that's always interesting, going to the Lake sometime after that ( drinking and boating should be fun : ) The Temp around here has been in the 100F mark with humidity at 100% gota love Missouri, so I have been enjoying the air conditioning when possible : )

How was the reunion? I never went to any of mine; how many others here have gone to their school reunions? My father always went to his but don't remember my mom going to any of hers.

Sorry for the late response, it was good, drank a few beers, seen some people haven't seen in a long time, it's kinda cool to see how people change and not just their looks but to see how they are now verse's how they were then.
