So how's the heat for ya?!

I am melting literally. It is way too hot for me and it is only July. I have been doing all the tricks I can to cool this house down. Even though it is better than almost all of the other houses I have ever lived in it is still too hot. Doesn't help when your furry cats want attention and sit on your chest when your flaked out from the heat. I feel for them. I do. I am too hot and I can't think what it must be like with fur coats on as well. Yikes. So not only do I have to keep the house cool for us humans I also have to worry about the comfort of my cats. Thankfully Bear has been keeping up with his chore of feeding the cats and regularly gives the cats fresh water.

This morning I was so baked that I went out to the garage and brought out our fans. I currently have one on me right now or I wouldn't be at the computer til later. And quite frankly I would rather sleep later when its cooler. Not be playing on the computer. I even got out the ice cubes and placed them in a bowl of water before a fan. Too bad they melted really quickly.

So Hubby and I took the kids to Ratatouille the new Pixar film. I don't think its spelled right but its French and I have never been good at French. It was a really good movie and both kids were excited about it. Now if only Smiles had decided not to go to the bathroom like five million times. Ok it was only three times but I missed some good chunks of the movie because of it. Sigh. Still it was very fun to watch and I did enjoy myself. So when we got home I decided that supper was going to be cheese, pickles and crackers with fruit for dessert. All the things that don't require cooking. I don't want the oven on right now! I don't want the oven on right now! I don't want the oven on.... oh sorry got carried away for a bit there.

Hubby really enjoyed the film because he's a foodie and would love to cook all the time. As long as he didn't have to clean up after himself. That and in this heat its even worse for him because he literally will not want to eat if he's too hot. I think I will go and get some vegetables for dipping and cold cuts for lunches and suppers. It is so hot that I don't even want to turn on the toaster oven to heat up my bagels in the morning. Of course I will otherwise the bagels go all hard and crunchy and not so nice to eat. I don't think I'll be buying bagels again for awhile. At least not til the heat has passed us by.

I really hope we get the kids to the pool tomorrow. I know I will enjoy it. Even if I will need to use the hot tub before getting out of the pool. One of these days I should see if I can get a massage from Auntie Ski. Now if only my stomach doesn't go all funky and hurt on me tomorrow morning. It's done that for the last two days now. I know I am sick and in this heat it is not a fun thing. Sore throat, cough (with the same effect as the sneeze) and a splitting headache almost all day. So until tomorrow then.
