Whew! Hot, Hot, Hot!

June 21, 2012

Good morning, and Whew!  It's a steamer!  Dee Dee and Eddie are coming by today, so I think I'll ask Eddie about putting in my air conditioner.  This dehumidifier is wonderful and does help to keep the temperature down, but the darn water container fills up too fast.  Once it is full, I have to shut the machine off and empty the container.  I would love to run it all night so that I can sleep, but the bucket would overflow and I would really have a mess to clean up.

It's only 10:30 and it's already 92 degrees, and heading towards 99 or 100 with a heat index of 105.  The good thing is that cooler temps are coming starting Saturday.  Unfortunately,  I have to work tomorrow, and the Mrs does not like us to put on the air conditioner.  I'm not looking forward to this.

The mail lady just brought me another package.  Yesterday, she brought Tootsie's meds, and today she brought a couple of large prints that I had ordered.  Oh my, they are soooo nice!  I had enlargements made of my "Blackbirds" and a photo of one of my rosebushes.  Today, I will get them framed. 

I want to try having a print done on canvas, but first I have to learn how to attach it to a wall mounting.  This is a new topic for me, so I'll have to start researching it on Google.  I'm sure somewhere there is a tutorial for it.

This week it's my turn to post a new photography theme at Hummies World.  I've picked the color orange, and posted a photo of one of my lilies.  In this photo, I raised the lilies up and used a bit of bevel and shadow on them just to be different.


I also have a photo of a butterfly that I took a few days ago at work.  This year, the butterflies and dragonflies are really making me work for a photo.  They are very flitty and hardly ever landing.


The weather fellow (on TV) just announced that today every state in the country except for Alaska and North Dakota will reach 90 degrees.  Wow!  I wonder if this is a sneak peek at what the summer holds for us.

On this note, I am going to put in a load of laundry, and rustle up some lunch for Tootsie and me.  Till tomorrow, Y'all keep cool and have a fabulous day.

Hugs, Edna B.

I can only dream of those temperatures at the moment but then again that's a bit too hot for me.

Currently we are being rained out though I can see some blue sky out of the window and some sunshine. Our temp will only be 13C today.

Stay cool!

Oh gosh, you are having some hot weather! It surely is a lot warmer than here at the moment. But may be next week it will be better.
Best thing is to stay a bit lazy, and have lots of icebags pprepared when you are at work LOL.
Have a fantastic day
Hugs
