Have you all had enough of it yet? Looks like a hot week. Luckily with the new job I'll be in a cooler for part of the day. All those buckets on the balcony garden have to be watered 3 times a day when it's this hot. Can't wait til I have an inground garden. Spent the day today hanging out at Mom's pool. The pool at the apartment is the most packed I've ever seen earlier today. How is everyone handling this heat?

I'm handling it by laying in the pool everyday with a cold landshark or two in my hand. Let me tell ya though work has been miserable lately.

I spent the weekend tearing down the cottage with my son, my soon-to-be son in law and his buddy. We literally sweated our a$$es off out there. Only the shade from the big trees and a little breeze off the lake made it possible. I was too tired to even take photos but I'll update my other thread as soon as I can see straight. I'm working on my second Kiilians right now. One more and I'll pass out, hope I make it to bed. We did have lunch out on the new boat today and had a nice swim to cool off. It was so hot though that we were sweating again just walking back up the hill to the cottage.

This heat makes me feel like I'm Scouts age. Hey, wait a minute. If you were my age you would have done 10 hours Saturday, 10 hours Sunday, and 5 hours Monday (after an 8 hour day in the office) out in this soup. I do more work by accident than you pups do on purpose. I had to take tonight off for a family dinner but I'll be back out there tomorrow when I get out of work.

Just got in, pretty much unbearable on the roof today. Started at 530 and just got home. Shingles on the roof were reading in at a cool 230 degrees. I'm going to float in the pool for a few hours I'm not feeling so good, think we may have over done it a bit today. Maybe just maybe might take tomorrow off, but probably not.

I was lovin' the girlie office work today. I found out today that my cottage schedule is going to be delayed because most of my hired help is unavailable for a couple of weeks. So I did the prudent thing and took the day off. No hurry now so I think I'll just pick at it until this heat breaks. I have no AC at home though so I'm breaking a sweat just typing this.
