It's 92F outside and what am I doing AFTER riding 31 miles this morning????? I'm using hedge trimmers to beat back the purple wintercreeper evil viney thing that is all over the place in the front of my house. I am sooo hot and sooo sweaty. Just thought I'd share

Along those lines, fish, I just cancelled the bike portion of the date. Still going to dinner and a movie, but it's 90 degrees, windy as ... well, Chicago, and looks like it's going to rain. My heart was pounding just getting the groceries in the car. It took me over an hour to cool down from the run. Let's not be stupid here...or any stupider than I usually am!
So I called up the guy and said, "uh, let's not ride bikes today". Bless him, he was out putting the rack on his car, but readily agreed.
Y'all be careful with the heat.
SK, I'd love to hear the entire "First Date With Bubba" story. You were going sailboarding on your first date and the car broke down? You spent 13 hr trying to get to wherever? Tell!Run like a dachshund! Ride like a superhero! Swim like a three-legged cat!

Sound like a good move, Lise. I hope you have a great night! I can't wait to hear how it goes.
We finished the yardwork - except for where the wasp nests were. They go away tonight, then I get to finish it up tomorrow. It went up to 97F today! Sport beans, cookies, and lots of water. FishJr was soooo good today - she sat under the pear tree in the shade working on her hidden pictures from Highlights magazine. She did that all afternoon while we were working in the yard! Then her brother woke up from his nap and they were singing songs to us.
Now... cleaning the house before mom gets here. T minus 4.5 hours. Yikes!*******************

Lise - hope Mr. Potential is fun!
Fish - good luck on your ride tomorrow. Just take it easy and breathe. Odds are you've been "pre-disastered" (anyone see/read World According to Garp?), so some doofus soccer field obsessed person will not again cross the line and ride you off the road.
Picked up the PP from camp. Long drive but we stopped a couple of times. I found out my seats go totally flat so I ended up sleeping all the way home - as did the PP, who snores a LOT louder than I do!!Sarah
