....here it is, almost 1am and it's still 86 degrees outside. Not that I am complaining since I like the heat but it's a surprise. It's supposed to be around 75 around now. It barely hit the 90's today and no reason why it didn't get any hotter. Or it could be the Beast's outside thermometer reading was off or the batteries are getting low. I just know that it didn't feel all that bad when I sat on the front steps this afternoon (when the sun was behind the house) and the front was finally shaded enough that Baron was willing to go outside for a bit. But if it had been as hot as yesterday, I don't think the Beast would have taken Baron out for his run like he did. He worries about the dog more than he does himself at times.
We ate light today due to the fact that, for some reason, perhaps a high utility bill, the Beast didn't turn on the AC until late in the afternoon. That was to cool down the house a bit before bedtime. He didn't leave it running either, the way he normally does. He must have checked the electric meter or something. But, if he gets hot, he'll be up turning it on. We haven't had any really high electric bill so far but he's always concerned about it. He can spend hundreds on crap but hates to send it to the electric company....and then complains if he's uncomfortable. MEN!
He's already complained about the money spent from our rapidly depleting savings on the mattresses even though he LOVES them both. So far, he's the only one that's slept on them both! But I just turn a deaf ear to that. I'm used to it and know it's just a lot of hot air on his part.
I'm tired tonight and should have been in bed already but I did take a long nap. I'm heading for bed as soon as I post this. I changed the pics on my FB page today because the Beast said I should have one where you could see ME instead of my sisters. So I used the one of me and Chewlee as my profile pic and used a picture of Chewlee that I love as my (I think it's called..) status picture. It's kind of like the background picture you use for your computer only not as large. People tend to change them a lot.
I'm also going to beg off a hint again (Sorry!) but my computer room is dark and I don't remember where I put my book of Hints. I'll owe you three for tomorrow. I will be doing my page early so I won't have the same problem.
I hope you are all hydrating well in this heat and remember there IS such a thing as Heatstroke and not just Sunstroke. It's no fun to either have or treat your kids or hubby/wife for. They get so sick from it. It's just awful. So be careful and stay safe. ***Hugs***
