Menopausal Farm Doin's

So, what would you do while waiting on your child to finish up sewing class? That's right, all good bloggers drive around and take photos! Grace's sewing teacher lives on a small farm 7 miles from our home. Unfortunately no animals were out and about due to the weather. Gee whiz, get a little 100 degree weather and those spoiled sheep and cows and goats get really cranky. Really! I actually had a ram say some very rude things to me. The ewe was ever so embarrassed and did apologize for his behavior. I told her I fully understand how surly men can get in the Summer...of course my ram...er...I mean husband did earn some major Brownie points yesterday with his post. He is kinda cute for an old retired sailor. Of course he is no Brian Dennehy but then, that is probably a WONDERFUL thing right? Okay, okay, I love the guy you know. Bill, not Brian. Of course I do love Brian but in a different way...not like I love Bill. Nope. Bill is a pretty nifty guy even if he does get cranky in the Summer. Lots of rams do I hear. Huh? Get on with my point? What was my point? Oh, it was H.O.T. today. AND humid. AND no breeze at all. Yippee! The late Summer trifecta! Still, the country side was pretty even if it was viewed from inside a van whose A/C was on so low that ice crystals formed on the windshield. Hey! Let's all sing...I am menopausal woman hear me roar...in heat indexes too high to ignore...and I need some ice cold water right away. 'Cause I'm a sweaty pool of goo and and I feel like veggie stew and I never want to feel this way again. Oooh, yes, I am mad but there's nothing I can do. Yes, I am a crank, I'm one hot, steamed up Sue. I need a shower. I need a huge iced tea. I am menopausal woman. I hope you are staying cool where you are! I missed you all...I will be catching up on my visits tomorrow! Thinking about you all...
Hugs, Susie Q

Is It Hot In Here Or Is It Me?

Now, what do you get when you mix 102 degrees with a menopausal woman and 200 Vacation Bible Schools children? I don't know either but it oozed, it dribbled, it moaned, it panted and then it spontaneously combusted into flames. Poof. Gone. Nothing but a pile of dirty ashes.Just like that. I do hear it will resurface tomorrow at 8:30 am in the arts and crafts area. And if the air conditioning does not function any better than it did today at the church, IT is gonna raise...well...it will raise something diametrically opposed to Heaven. Oh, and excuse the dust on the car's dashboard. I have not Swiffered it since we returned. Like THAT is gonna happen before the heat breaks!
