The weather has taken another change of direction. We went from record breaking rain fall to record breaking heat indexes of 105. It has been quiet outside as everyone spent most of the week inside trying to stay hydrated and cool. We went walking a couple of evenings after dark, but still came home soaked with perspiration as the humidity was high. It is cooler today, but the rain has returned again for a couple of days.
The increase in mold spores outside due to all the rain has caused our allergies to flair up. Achoo!! Even Laney has been having sneezing attacks. She is sneezed like eight times in a row last night. I think she scared herself and it was quit comical.
Laney is spoiled and loves the air conditioning as much as we do. I wonder how we survived as children growing up with no air conditioning. My own children never experienced sweating all night in a 80 degree house with just a fan. I even remember my first car had no air conditioner. The only thing blowing was hot air and road dirt coming through a rolled down window. There's not anything like fresh air on a hot summer day. LOL!
We did get our exercise today despite the muggy air. Hubby and I road bicycles on a scenic bike trail. We managed to do eleven miles before I melted. Thank goodness for Gatorade and the air conditioned car We saw another deer today. Of course, I forgot my camera again.
I am resting now in the air conditioning and yes Life is beautiful!!
