The Dog Days of Summer are here.
It?s SO hot today ... My dog walked after the squirrel instead of chasing it.
And I discovered that I could drive with one finger!.....

My husband got back from Seattle and said someone asked him why he lived somewhere like TX that was so HOT, and all he could think to say was "At least I don't have to shovel hot air."

It's so hot the eggs jumped out of the frying pan onto the sidewalk.

It is so hot the waterbugs are lined up in front of the pool like they are waiting to get on a amusement park ride.

As my friend likes to say, "It's Africa Hot!" I just presume that means really, really hot! I just heard thunder and am hopeful we get rain. Our 'plenty of water' is quickly turning into another drought......we had exactly a 12 mo. reprieve. Seven year drought that literally starts every eight years!
It's oppressive!!!!!

Yowsa, DD! Maybe you should get a couple of helpers....I'll bet some of your residents are gardeners!

I had dinner with a friend who was in Africa on a 2 week safari in July, I asked about this whole Africa hot thing and she said it's way the hell hotter in Texas than it was in Africa. They needed a jacket in the evenings in Africa-not an issue here in Texas!

Not surprising at all since my friend has never been to Africa. How could he know?

I am about to put a feather in my hair and do a rain dance. It poured one mile from my house and not a drop here. I am ticked with the rain gods.

I guess I need to rain dance, too-I just got home from a two week work trip and my yard is parched-hubby's not one to water the yard!

5:00 a.m. is early! Those "summer" weeds don't like to come out as easily as the spring ones though. ;-)

NS. I made it though. Worked from about 5:45 til noon. The last hour was pretty miserable, but it was just the clean up. Our [STRIKE]landscape[/STRIKE] lawn mower guys "don't do flower beds", so I couldn't take it any more and you're right--those summer weeds are a mofo. I had been watering for days though, so it was a little easier. I am sore as sh!t this morning . Crikey, I hate getting old.

I admire you for doing this! ...... if that's any consolation.
..<< that's cool in as stay cool...you know as in not hot. ummm - not that you're not cool too. Besides, who else do I know with a SoWal tattoo and most likely a "gardener's tan" now also? ..
