Heat

It's our dog day of the summer. The first over 90 degree day this summer. A nice hot, muggy one at that. When we walked outside together today sometime after noon, Jim commented that today reminded him of being in Florida. I reminded him that walking out of our house in Lake Worth in August usually felt like you were opening a hot oven rather than just the front door. This was not that. Later today when our downstairs a/c unit blew a fuse (our only a/c unit downstairs) and we retreated to an upstairs bedroom for some a/c relief, I was reminded of what it was like living through the series of hurricanes we lived through in 2004 and 2005, when we lost power for 7-15 days at a time. While the air conditioned rooms remain comfortable, leaving them to walk through the rest of the house is a definite shock. Maureen is handling the "heat wave" fairly well. Gram took little notice of it. He was more interested in watching some of the programs on "Hurricane Week" on the weather channel. Tonight, the program was about 2004's Hurricane Ivan. Memories!
Oh yeah, Mo just had her followup appointment and she has gained a pound since birth. That's my girl!
