HOT. Holy cow is it HOT. It was over 80 at 6:00 am here. I'm inside for the day. I told Morgan to call me if she wants me to come and get her for lunch. That way she can cool down a bit. I will probably take her to my sister's for a dip after camp this afternoon.

Today - already did some grocery shopping and marinated the chicken. Going to finish up Morgan's address book and then probably watch a movie, it's too hot to do much of anything.

Hope everyone has a good day. Stay cool!

I agree Jen - we New Englanders are not always accustomed to the heat as the cold. They said with the heat indice today, it will seem like 103!! Cat stays indoors as do I.

Hope everyone stays cool as possible!!

My indoor cats lie on the cat bed in the window. The thermometer right outside that window is in the sun, 110 degrees and they just soak it up

Morgan came home for lunch...I finished her little address book and she loves it! So glad.

Already called my sister, we're all set to pool it after camp!

TRM ~ no DS doesn't show... they are going to watch some of PJ's friends... Most of PJ's friends (that aren't already at the fair) don't do the fair.. it's too "farmy" for them... PJ laughs and tells them I'd rather be "farmy" than a dud! So, she asked to take her brothers to watch her friends.. gives her someone to sit with... I think PJ wants to spend as much time as she can because she knows this is her last year at home full time and things will be crazy during the school year and next summer getting ready for college...
Our boys do show rabbits but we kept ours home this year because of the heat. But when we went to drop off our posters 25% of the cages were still emptied.. When we arrived last night to check our poster ribbons... about 30% of the cages were taken down...


So sorry to hear about DD again... Ok, where has she been that the other kids have not been? Did you drench her hair in olive oil and wrap it in saran wrap? I have heard that works.. I think years ago, I did either olive oil or mayo... and we haven't had them again... I too was mortified...but it's all apart of life... its nothing that we do wrong... it just happens.. If I were closer, I'd come help you out!

Get a small blacklight to make sure you are really getting all the nits out. They glow in the blacklight making them easier to find and get rid of.
