Oh...the weather outside is frightful...

Okay.
I'm officially old.
I have been deduced to discussing the weather...
I'm fine with it... I can handle getting old...
no problem...
What I CAN'T handle?
What I absolutely hate?
What I kiss and hug and thank my HVAC/ Sheet Metal Worker hubby for on days like today?
THE FREAKING HELLISH WEATHER!
What IS this crap?
110 in the SHADE!
HUMIDITY!
We don't do humidity in So Cal!
Do you KNOW what a curly headed woman goes through on a HUMID DAY?
No amount of hair spray, hair ties, mousse, hats... NOTHING... stops the frizz that is
INEVITABLE on a humid day.
***
We were at the soccer field at 7:00 a.m. this morning... AND IT WAS ALREADY 82!!!!
Two weeks ago, it was soooo gorgeous.. sooo mild and wonderful!
THEN ALL HELL BROKE LOOSE!
We have a pool, BUT IT'S SOOO HOT IN THERE!!!
It's more like a giant bathtub.
***
My two older boys spent the entire day at the soccer field playing and reffing games.
Poor kids. All that for a measly $30 for the day.
My snack bar girls make $40 for an evening! Only 4 hours!
***
Going outside is like walking into a furnace.
It just hits you in the face.
SMACK!
Full blown heat.
Ugh.
My ankles are cankles, my fingers are swollen, AND I'm PMSing.
Oh... it's gonna be an interesting week.
My poor boys. Dad is gone for the week "hunting".
They have to deal with Premeditated Murder Syndrome alone...
There had better not be one Jehovah's witness or anyone on a mission coming to my door this week...I'm usually very nice and complimentary... but I can literally feel the blood coursing through my veins, and my tongue becoming forked, and my head itches where my horns come out every month.
I HATE WEATHER OVER 100...
HATE IT... HATE IT... HATE IT!!!!
Be nice to me...
Don't make me hunt you down...
I'll put the Italian Eye on you!
Make the weather change... anyone... please...
We need GLOBAL CHILLING!
How can we make that happen?

    We have had global chilling here in Michigan all summer! We only had a handful of days over 85-it is down right chilly here...you need to come for a visit!

  2. OMG I feel you! The hubs and I had to go down to the beach for dinner it's that ridiculously hot! Something...ANYTHING to get away from that heat. And on the way home at 7 freaking p.m. we still hit a wall of heat half way home!

  3. It's about 114 degrees here but it is the desert so there's only two choices, live with it or move. At this point, we'll live with it....although, having a good A/C does help!

    I'm looking for it to cool down but more than likely that won't be until the beginning of October. Ugh!

  4. The problem with So Cal heat, is that the pools heat up too and the decks are too HOT to walk on and the beach is on fire! You can't get to the water without burning your feet off. So the only choice in the heat is to stay home. My car said it was 111 degrees at 4pm today. My popsicles didn't make it home alive.

  5. Oh my, the temps here have just plummeted into the upper 60's, lower 70's. I wish you'd get some of ours!

  6. It hit about 105 around here on Saturday. I refuse to go out when it's that hot. Our weather has been sooo odd though. Cause on Sunday it was down about 20 degrees to a more reasonable 80 degrees. Hope it starts cooling off for you too.
