It's rather warm

We've had a couple of days of 100+ degree heat here.

Our house is kind of old, so it doesn't have the best insulation. We're working on that, but in the meantime, it gets pretty stinkin' hot. We're doing the ol' "run fans thru the night, lock everything tight in the morning" routine.

We yell at the kids for holding the fridge door open (we don't have one of THESE) awesome fridge

And Connor has created a "pond" in my strawberry patch. Yesterday, he went through 5 changes of clothes, because every time he'd come in again, he'd have to be rinsed down, and was totally sopping wet.

We actually spent a couple of hours at the community pool, but after we got home, he was back in the pond. I finally get him to come in to read his new Captain Underpants books, and he managed to stay inside & dry then.

However, Diana was out on her hands & knees in the pond then. "It's so nice and cool!" (she was just back from her paper route).

I can't win.

Can't beat the simple things in life like a muddy watering hole!
